“SCIENCE encourages legitimate human curiosity to know the universe and to admire and contemplate its beauty and goodness. In this way we enter into communion with God himself, who looked upon what he had created and saw that it was very good.”
~Pope John Paul II, Discourse to the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, Sept. 26, 1986.
“MAN learns from two books: the universe, for the human study of the things created by God; and the Bible, for the study of God’s superior will and truth. One belongs to reason, the other to faith. Between them there is no clash.”
~Pope Pius XII: Address to the Pontifical Academy of Science, Dec. 3, 1939.
