	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Science and the Church
		Church, in connexion with science, theoretically means any Church that claims authority in matters of doctrine and teaching; practically, however, only the Catholic Church is in question, on account of her universality and her claim of power to exercise this authority.
		The greatest obstacle to anti-Christian science is the Church, which claims Divine origin, authority to teach infallible truth, maintains the inspiration of Scripture, and is confident of her own existence to the end of the world.
		The domination of the Church in the Middle Ages and its influence upon the progress of science is a subject that required a different mind from that of a chemist or physicist.

	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.

		PLANETARY SCIENCE: RECOVERY AND ANALYSIS OF A RARE TYPE OF METEORITE On 18 January 2000, an exceptionally bright fireball was witnessed in dawn twilight throughout the Yukon and Northwest Territories, northern British Columbia, and parts of Alaska.
		Fragments recovered range in mass from fractions of a kilogram to several kilograms, and it is estimated that the original pre-atmospheric mass of the meteoroid was approximately 200,000 kilograms, corresponding to an object 4 to 6 meters in diameter.
		The multidimensionality of biological science, the diversity of elements that should matter for academic success, the idea of science as more than a compendium of facts -- all are severely compromised.

	Charles Wilkes and American Science in the Age of Sail
		Planters' sons might dabble in science beyond the techniques of agronomy but knowledge of science was foreign to most middle class overseers, farmers or merchants; was ignored by almost all small yeoman or tenant farmers; and was forbidden to slaves (Scott n.d).
		Antebellum science, where it was not mechanics' tinkering, was considered a literary activity, as it was in Europe, although even in the colleges and societies it concentrated in the generalized "Natural" rather in the increasingly technological "Physical" sciences.
		And throughout the 1820s American science saw the development and growth of dozens of new amateur and increasingly professional societies, most with their accompanying scientific journal (some of which are still in publication) (Elliott 1970).

	The Modern Synthesis
		The social sciences appeared to benefit tremendously by the new spirit of free inquiry and indirectly have sought increasingly to make use of the methods and tools which have contributed so greatly to man's control over his environment.
		Ralph Gerard observed, "Science aims to translate experience into general laws of predictive value." (75) It is true that in lowly forms of animal life prediction is more successful than in the higher forms, and that in the higher forms some prediction is still possible.
		Science has taught us analysis, but we have had as yet no large scale and equally successful synthetic constrictions that bear on human conduct.
