Original Source: I have said that science is impossible without faith. By this I do not mean that the faith on which science depends is religious in nature or involves the acceptance of any of the dogmas of the ordinary religious creeds, yet without faith that nature is subject to law there can be no science. No amount of demonstration can ever prove that nature is subject to law. |
Versions:
A. Science is impossible without faith that nature is subject to law.
B. Faith makes science possible. This does not mean that science rests on religious faith or the acceptance of religious dogmas, but without the faith that nature functions according to laws, science cannot exist.
C. The belief that nature functions in accordance with laws makes science possible (Wiener 262).
D. Science depends on faith, not religious faith, but the faith that "nature is subject to law" (Wiener 262).
