Fruitful discourse in science or theology requires us to believe that within the contexts of normal discourse there are some true statements.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If we take science as our sole guide, if we accept and hold fast that alone which is verifiable, the old theology must go.
Unfortunately, science cannot be reduced to short, catchy phrases. And if this is all that the general public can comprehend, it's no wonder that we spend so much of our time in the interminable debate about belief in God, or lack thereof.
As our bodies live upon the earth and find sustenance in the fruits which it produces, so our minds feed on the same truths as the intelligible and immutable substance of the divine Word contains.
Theology is a science of mind applied to God.
Science is the ultimate tool to reveal the laws of nature, and the one word written on its banner is Truth.
Except for a God who sits down after the universe begins, all other gods conflict with the assumptions of science.
In so far as a scientific statement speaks about reality, it must be falsifiable; and in so far as it is not falsifiable, it does not speak about reality.
Indeed, every true science has for its object the determination of certain phenomena by means of others, in accordance with the relations which exist between them.
It is often said that science must avoid any conclusions which smack of the supernatural.
The truth is that the religious and the scientific processes, though involving different methods, are identical in their final aim. Both aim at reaching the most real.
