The monopoly of science in the realm of knowledge explains why evolutionary biologists do not find it meaningful to address the question whether the Darwinian theory is true.

Science consists exactly of those forms of knowledge that can be verified and duplicated by anybody.

Now it is established in the sciences that no knowledge is acquired save through the study of its causes and beginnings if it has had causes and beginnings nor completed except by knowledge of its accidents and accompanying essentials.

Is there anything science should not try to explain? Science is knowledge and knowledge is power - power to do good or evil. Sometimes ignorance is bliss.

If on occasion the knowledge brought by science leads to an unhappy end this is not to the discredit of science but is rather an indication of an imperfect ability to use wisely the gifts placed within our hands.

Science is knowledge arranged and classified according to truth facts and the general laws of nature.

From all this it follows what the general character of the problem of the development of a body of scientific knowledge is in so far as it depends on elements internal to science itself.

The art and science of asking questions is the source of all knowledge.

To that class we may leave it to refine the vernacular dialects of the country to enrich those dialects with terms of science borrowed from the Western nomenclature and to render them by degrees fit vehicles for conveying knowledge to the great mass of the population.

Science has to be understood in its broadest sense as a method for comprehending all observable reality and not merely as an instrument for acquiring specialized knowledge.
