“Our assumption is that God has not revealed all there is to know in the spiritual area any more than he has in these other areas. We, therefore, need to experiment in this area and, like scientists who work in other areas, develop and test theories in order to gain greater understanding” KnowsNeedsSpiritualOrderUnderstandingGreaterTheoryGainsAreasTestsScientistExperimentsAssumption Author:Charles H.

“I look at the most promising putative moral theories. I construct crucial thought experiments in areas where they give conflicting advice. I confront their conflicting advice with my own moral sensitivity, my moral intuition. I take the theory that can best explain the content of my intuitions as gaining inductive support through an inference to the best explanation.” GivingLooksMy OwnMoralSupportAdviceTheoryAreasIntuitionExperimentsExplanationCrucialSensitivityConstructsInference Author:Torbjorn Tannsjo
“Very little in science fiction can transcend the gimmickry of a technical conceit, yet without that conceit at its heart a book is not truly science fiction. Furthermore, so little emerging thought and technology is employed by sf writers today that the genre is lagging far behind reality both in the cosmology area and the technology area: sf is no longer a place to experiment, but is now very derivative.” HeartLittlesBookRealityTodayBehindsFictionTechnologyFantasyAreasScience FictionExperimentsGenreEmployedCreative WritingEmergingConceitCosmologyDerivativesGenre Is Author:Janet Morris
