"The antagonism of science is not to religion, but to the heathen
survivals and the bad philosophy under which religion herself is
often well-nigh crushed. And, for my part, I trust that this
antagonism will never cease; but that, to the end of time, true
science will continue to fulfil one of her most beneficent
functions, that of relieving men from the burden of false
science which is imposed upon them in the name of religion."
Thomas Henry Huxley F.R.S.
British biologist (May 4, 1825 – June 29, 1895).
