	The reality of holism - Peter Morrell
		Science as a worldview entirely regards events through this 'conceptual filter' of reductionism, named parts and their interactions in mechanisms or causal chains.
		Phenomenology attempts to view things more directly in their pure, holistic functioning, avoiding, as far as possible, the use of conceptual overlays like parts, names and mechanisms, with which science is so manifestly obsessed.
		Thus, it cuts across the accepted pathways and mechanisms science has created and which are deemed by most educated people to be REAL, I mean real in some absolute sense, as opposed to physical or observable.

		However, such a view of science is relatively modern and one that implies that the term 'science' is an all-encompassing term.
		This brief introduction aims to show that science has a checkered history and one that needs to be understood if the scientific rejection of religion is to be challenged [1].
		As was said earlier, the 'father' of modern science was Francis Bacon and he believed that science should be founded on a process of induction so as to avoid 'idols' (the desire to accept only that which confirms what we already believe).

	Science Quotes
		Science is nothing but trained and organized common sense differing from the latter only as a veteran may differ from a raw recruit: and its methods differ from those of common sense only as far as the guardsman's cut and thrust differ from the manner in which a savage wields his club.
		Science is facts; just as houses are made of stone, so is science made of facts; but a pile of stones is not a house, and a collection of facts is not necessarily science.
		Experimental science is the queen of sciences and the goal of all speculation.
