Conflict Thesis John William Draper

"In its traditional forms, the conflict thesis has been largely discredited."

Steven Shapin "In the late Victorian period it was common to write about the 'warfare between science and religion' and to presume that the two bodies of culture must always have been in conflict. However, it is a very long time since these attitudes have been held by historians of science."

Gary Ferngren"Although popular images of controversy continue to exemplify the supposed hostility of Christianity to new scientific theories, studies have shown that Christianity has often nurtured and encouraged scientific endeavor,

Gary Ferngrenwhile at other times the two have co-existed without either tension or attempts at harmonization. If Galileo and the Scopes trial come to mind as examples of conflict, they were the exceptions rather than the rule.”

Stephen Jay Gould

 "There never was a period of 'flat earth darkness' among scholars (regardless of how the public at large may have conceptualized our planet both then and now).

Stephen Jay Gould

Greek knowledge of sphericity never faded, and all major medieval scholars accepted the Earth's roundness as an established fact of cosmology."

Galileo "The intention of the Holy Spirit is to teach us how to go to heaven, not how the heavens go."

Pope John Paul II"The Bible itself speaks to us of the

origin of the universe and its make-up, not in order to provide us with a scientific treatise, but in order to state the correct relationships of man with God and with the universe.

Pope John Paul IISacred Scripture wishes simply to

declare that the world was created by God, and in order to teach this truth it expresses itself in the terms of the cosmology in use at the time of the writer"
