“If you study science deep enough and long enough, it will force you to believe in God.”
Lord Kelvin (Physicist 1824-1907)
“If you study science deep enough and long enough, it will force you to believe in God.”
Lord Kelvin (Physicist 1824-1907)
“I think men of science as well as other men need to learn from Christ, and I think Christians whose minds are scientific are bound to study science that their view of the glory of God may be as extensive as their being is capable. But I think that the results which each man arrives at in his attempts to harmonize his science with his Christianity ought not to be regarded as having any significance except to the man himself, and to him only for a time, and should not receive the stamp of a society.”
James Clerk Maxwell (Scientist, Physics, 1831-1879)
“I have looked into the most philosophical systems and have found none that will not work without God.”
James Clerk Maxwell (Scientist, Physics, 1831-1879)
“What ever the course of our lives, we should receive them as the highest gift from the hand of God, in which equally reposed the power to do nothing whatever for us. Indeed, we should accept misfortune not only in thanks, but in infinite gratitude to Providence, which by such means detaches us from an excessive love for Earthly things and elevates our minds to the celestial and divine.”
Galileo Galilei (Astronomer, Physicist 1564-1642)
“And who can doubt that it will lead to the worst disorders when minds created free by God are compelled to submit slavishly to an outside will? When we are told to deny our senses and subject them to the whim of others? When people devoid of whatsoever competence are made judges over experts and are granted authority to treat them as they please? These are the novelties which are apt to bring about the ruin of commonwealths and the subversion of the state.”
Galileo Galilei (Astronomer, Physicist 1564-1642)
“I believe that the intention of Holy Writ was to persuade men of the truths necessary to salvation; such as neither science nor other means could render credible, but only the voice of the Holy Spirit.”
Galileo Galilei (Astronomer, Physicist 1564-1642)
“God is known by nature in his works, and by doctrine in his revealed word.”
Galileo Galilei (Astronomer, Physicist 1564-1642)
“I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forego their use.”
Galileo Galilei (Astronomer, Physicist 1564-1642)
“Scripture is a book about going to Heaven. It’s not a book about how the heavens go.”
Galileo Galilei (Astronomer, Physicist 1564-1642)
“Mathematics is the language with which God has written the universe.”
Galileo Galilei (Astronomer, Physicist 1564-1642)
