Michael Shermer Quotes

The whole point of faith, in fact, is to believe regardless of the evidence, which is the very antithesis of science Picture Quote #1
Science is a set of methods designed to describe and interpret observed or inferred phenomenon, past or present, and aimed at building a testable body of knowledge open to rejection or confirmation Picture Quote #1
Believing that the rustle in the grass is a dangerous predator when it is only the wind does not cost much, but believing that a dangerous predator is the wind may cost an animal its life Picture Quote #1
Because of the complexity of the problem, environmental skepticism was once tenable. No longer. It is time to flip from skepticism to activism Picture Quote #1
Rationality tied to moral decency is the most powerful joint instrument for good that our planet has ever known Picture Quote #1
I’m a skeptic not because I do not want to believe, but because I want to know Picture Quote #1

Darwin matters because evolution matters. Evolution matters because science matters. Science matters because it is the preeminent story of our age, an epic saga about who we are, where we came from and where we are going Picture Quote #1
Science is not the affirmation of a set of beliefs but a process of inquiry aimed at building a testable body of knowledge constantly open to rejection or confirmation. In science, knowledge is fluid and certainty fleeting. That is at the heart of its limitations. It is also its greatest strength Picture Quote #1
I’m a skeptic not because I do not want to believe, but because I want to know. How can we tell the difference between what we would like to be true and what is actually true? The answer is science Picture Quote #1
Belief is the natural state of things. It is the default option. We just believe. We believe all sorts of things. Belief is natural; disbelief, skepticism, science, is not natural Picture Quote #1
In science, all conclusions are provisional, subject to new evidence and better arguments, the very antithesis of religious faith Picture Quote #1
