“We have evidence all around us in our daily analytic practice and in contemporary world history that this earth-shaking archetypal event is taking place here and now. It has already started. It is manifesting itself in international relations; in the breakdown of the social structures of Western civilization; in political, ethnic, and religious groupings; as well as within the psyches of individuals- the momentous event of the coming of the self into conscious realization.” WorldWellsSelfEarthPoliticalIndividualSocialGrowthReligiousPracticeEventsAcceptanceCivilizationConsciousEvidenceRelationStructureWesternInternationalContemporaryRealizationManifestWorld HistoryHere And NowShakingInternational RelationsBreakdownWestern CivilizationAnalyticsSocial StructurePsych Author:Edward F Edinger
“The evidence of our acceptance in the Beloved rises in proportion to our love, to our repentance, to our humility, to our faith, to our self-denial, to our delight in duty.

“It is naïve to suppose that the acceptance of evolution theory depends upon the evidence of a number of so-called "proofs"; it depends rather upon the fact that the evolutionary theory permeates and supports every branch of biological science, much as the notion of the roundness of the earth underlies all geodesy and all cosmological theories on which the shape of the earth has a bearing. Thus antievolutionism is of the same stature as flat-earthism.” FactsEarthNumbersSupportAtheismAcceptanceTheoryDependsEvolutionShapesEvidenceNotionProofBranchesFlatsStatureBiological Science Author:Peter Medawar
“Throughout history, humankind has been resistant to change and to the acceptance of new ideas... When Galileo discovered the moons of Jupiter, the astronomers of that time refused to accept or even to look at these satellites because the existence of these moons conflicted with their accepted beliefs. So it is now with psychiatrists and other therapists, who refuse to examine and evaluate the considerable evidence being gathered about survival after bodily death and about past life memories. Their eyes are tightly shut.” LooksHas BeensIdeasEyePastBeliefMemoriesHealingExistenceAcceptingAcceptanceMoonSurvivalEvidenceRefuseAcceptedHumankindNew IdeasPsychiatristEvaluateTherapistsPast LifeSatellitesAstronomersJupiter Author:Brian Weiss

“... the consensus of the scientific community has shifted from skepticism to near-unanimous acceptance of the evidence of an artificial greenhouse effect. Second, while artificial climate change may have some beneficial effects, the odds are we're not going to like it.

“There is not enough evidence, consistent evidence to make it as fact, and I say that because for theory to become a fact, it needs to consistently have the same results after it goes through a series of tests. The tests that they put- that they use to support evolution do not have consistent results. Now too many people are blindly accepting evolution as fact. But when you get down to the hard evidence, it's merely a theory.” PeopleNeedsHardEnoughFactsUseScienceResultsAcceptingSupportAcceptanceTheoryEvolutionEvidenceTestsSeriesConsistentConsistently Author:Christine O'Donnell

“The hypotheses which we accept ought to explain phenomena which we have observed. But they ought to do more than this; our hypotheses ought to foretell phenomena which have not yet been observed; ... because if the rule prevails, it includes all cases; and will determine them all, if we can only calculate its real consequences. Hence it will predict the results of new combinations, as well as explain the appearances which have occurred in old ones. And that it does this with certainty and correctness, is one mode in which the hypothesis is to be verified as right and useful.” IfsWellsDoeRealScienceResultsAcceptingCasesAcceptanceOughtEvidenceConsequenceDetermineAppearanceObservationCertaintyCombinationHypothesisCorrectness Author:William Whewell
“With the eventual acceptance of Darwin's theory we reach a modern understanding of nature, one which has since then changed in detail rather than in fundamentals. Only those who prefer religious faith to beliefs based on reasoning and evidence can still maintain that the human species is the special darling of the entire universe, or that other animals were created to provide us with food, or that we have divine authority over them, and divine permission to kill them.” HumansStillsUniverseBeliefUnderstandingReligiousAnimalModernSpecialAcceptanceChangedDivineTheoryAuthorityEvidenceFundamentalsSpeciesDetailsLiberationReasoningPermissionDarlingReligious FaithHuman SpeciesAnimal Liberation Author:Peter Singer
