Science and vision are not opposites or even at odds. They need each other. I sometimes hear other startup folks say something along the lines of: 'If entrepreneurship was a science then anyone could do it.' I'd like to point out that even science is a science and still very few people can do it let alone do it well.
Science is analytical descriptive informative. Man does not live by bread alone but by science he attempts to do so. Hence the deadliness of all that is purely scientific.
The accumulation of skill and science which has been directed to diminish the difficulty of producing manufactured goods has not been beneficial to that country alone in which it is concentrated distant kingdoms have participated in its advantages.
People talk about the conscience but it seems to me one must just bring it up to a certain point and leave it there. You can let your conscience alone if you're nice to the second housemaid.
The history of philosophy is not like the history of the sciences to be studied with the intellect alone. That which is receptive in us and that which impinges upon us from history is the reality of man's being unfolding itself in thought.
If we take science as our sole guide if we accept and hold fast that alone which is verifiable the old theology must go.
Wisdom alone is the science of other sciences.
The older generation had greater respect for land than science. But we live in an age when science more than soil has become the provider of growth and abundance. Living just on the land creates loneliness in an age of globality.
Science cannot tell theology how to construct a doctrine of creation but you can't construct a doctrine of creation without taking account of the age of the universe and the evolutionary character of cosmic history.
The credit of advancing science has always been due to individuals and never to the age.
