I also think we need to maintain distinctions - the doctrine of creation is different from a scientific cosmology and we should resist the temptation which sometimes scientists give in to to try to assimilate the concepts of theology to the concepts of science.

A fact must be assimilated with or discriminated fromm some other fact or facts in order to be raised to the dignity of a truth and made to convey the least knowledge to the mind.

You measure a democracy by the freedom it gives its dissidents not the freedom it gives its assimilated conformists.

Pure truth cannot be assimilated by the crowd it must be communicated by contagion.
