„It is, of course, quite true that there is a region in which science and religion do not conflict. That is the region of the unknowable.“

— H.L. Mencken

„Religion is not an exact science. Sometimes, of course, neither is science.“
— Terry Pratchett
„It is this mythical, or rather this symbolic, content of the religious traditions which is likely to come into conflict with science. This occurs whenever this religious stock of ideas contains dogmatically fixed statements on subjects which belong in the domain of science. Thus, it is of vital importance for the preservation of true religion that such conflicts be avoided when they arise from subjects which, in fact, are not really essential for the pursuance of the religious aims.“
— Albert Einstein
„Religion, n. A daughter of Hope and Fear, explaining to Ignorance the nature of the Unknowable.“
— Ambrose Bierce
„Science investigates; religion interprets. Science gives man knowledge which is power; religion gives man wisdom which is control. Science deals mainly with facts; religion deals mainly with values. The two are not rivals. They are complementary.“
— Jr.
