“Dogma in science really is humiliating when it is recognized as dogma.”
“Science has nothing to do with any dogma. Science ceases to exist when there is a dogma.”
“The truth, however, is that the conflict between religion and science is unavoidable. The success of science often comes at the expense of religious dogma; the maintenance of religious dogma always comes at the expense of science.”
“Science is based on experiment, on a willingness to challenge old dogma, on an openness to see the universe as it really is. Accordingly, science sometimes requires courage - at the very least the courage to question the conventional wisdom.”
“The enemy of science is not religion... . The true enemy is the substitution of thought, reflection, and curiosity with dogma.”
“One cannot escape dogmas—those who hold most firmly to dogmas today are those whose only dogma is that dogmas should be feared like the plague.”
