La ciencia es una disciplina sistemática que construye y organiza el conocimiento en forma de explicaciones comprobables sobre la naturaleza y la sociedad. Está impulsada por el método científico: un ciclo empírico que típicamente implica realizar observaciones, producir hipótesis, ponerlas a prueba con evidencia y extraer conclusiones. La ciencia abarca este proceso y el conjunto de conocimientos que produce, que la comunidad científica desafía, valida y organiza continuamente.
“We are stuck with technology when all we really want is just stuff that works. How do you recognize something that is still technology? A good clue is if it comes with a manual.”
“The search for the truth is the most important work in the whole world — and the most dangerous.”
“In many ways, science, including statistics, is like detective work. Beginning with a set of observations, we ask what can be said about the systems that generated them.”
“Scientists don’t arrive at the truth by inward certainty or by majority vote, but they do demonstrate it to each other (and to other men) by open and rational procedures. If an experiment or observation can’t be repeated, it can’t be accepted, no matter how great the reputation, scientific or otherwise, of the man who says he did it or saw it.”
“What science cannot discover, mankind cannot know.”
“It is the duty of Christian controversialists to enter the provinces over which skeptical scientists usurp dominion, to point out their mistakes, and thus re-conquer, for truth and for God, the territories in which these scientists claim supremacy.”
