“Science has been effective at furthering our understanding of nature because the scientific ethos is based on three key principles: (1) follow the evidence wherever it leads; (2) if one has a theory, one needs to be willing to try to prove it wrong as much as one tries to prove that it is right; (3) the ultimate arbiter of truth is experiment, not the comfort one derives from one's a priori beliefs, nor the beauty or elegance one ascribes to one's theoretical models.” IfsNeedsTryingHas BeensThreeBeliefUnderstandingCommonPrinciplesWillingTheoryKeysComfortTruth IsProveModelsEvidenceUltimateExperimentsCommon SenseEleganceTheoreticalProve ItEthosArbiterWilling To Try Book:A Universe From Nothing Source: A Universe From Nothing
“Rebels and dissidents challenge the complacent belief in a just world, and, as the theory would predict, they are usually denigrated for their efforts. While they are alive, they may be called 'cantankerous,' 'crazy,' 'hysterical,' 'uppity,' or 'duped.' Dead, some of them become saints and heroes, the sterling characters of history. It's a matter of proportion. One angry rebel is crazy, three is a conspiracy, 50 is a movement.” WorldMayMatterCharacterThreeBeliefChallengesEffortAliveCrazyMovementTheoryHeroAngerAngrySaintActivismProportionRebellionRebelConspiracyComplacentHystericalDissidentsSterling Author:Carol Tavris

“A culture may be conceived as a network of beliefs and purposes in which any string in the net pulls and is pulled by the others,thus perpetually changing the configuration of the whole. If the cultural element called morals takes on a new shape, we must ask what other strings have pulled it out of line. It cannot be one solitary string, nor even the strings nearby, for the network is three-dimensional at least.” IfsMayWholePurposeCultureThreeAsksBeliefLinesMoralShapesElementsStringsSolitaryConfiguration Book:The Culture We Deserve Source: The Culture We Deserve
“A crowd of grade-three thinkers, all shouting the same thing, all warming their hands at the fire of their own prejudices, will not thank you for pointing out the contradictions in their beliefs.

“"True science has no belief," says Dr. Fenwick, in Bulwer-Lytton's 'Strange Story;' "true science knows but three states of mind: denial, conviction, and the vast interval between the two, which is not belief, but the suspension of judgment." Such, perhaps, was true science in Dr. Fenwick's days. But the true science of our modern times proceeds otherwise; it either denies point-blank, without any preliminary investigation, or sits in the interim, between denial and conviction, and, dictionary in hand, invents new Graeco-Latin appellations for non-existing kinds of hysteria!” KnowsMindKindTwoStatesStoriesHandsThreeBeliefModernStrangeJudgmentConvictionDenyDenialLatinState Of MindInvestigationBlankDrsDictionaryIntervalsHysteriaModern TimesSuspensionInterimStrange Stories Author:H.

“God helps me for sure every day and at every contest. I broke my hand and had to get surgery on it. The recovery was really frustrating because I had to skip three weeks at the beginning of the season. But I flipped it around and took it as a blessing. I said a lot of prayers and just asked God to do His thing. I did other things to compliment the recovery like getting the right sleep and taking care of my body. But I went back to the doctor after four weeks and he was ecstatic about the recovery of my hand. I take that as a tribute to my faith and my belief in doing the right things.” SaidHelpingBodyHandsCareThreeBeliefPrayerSleepFourWeekBlessingDoctorsSeasonsRecoveryBrokeRight ThingHelp MeComplimentSurgeryContestsFrustratingTributeDoing The Right ThingSkipEcstaticGod HelpFlippedGod Help Me Author:Nick Goepper
