      „Chápanie sveta, ktoré evokujú súčasné prírodné vedy, sa na Západe bežne pokladá za nepriateľské voči náboženskej viere ako takej a kresťanskej zvlášť, alebo aspoň za také, ktoré vieru podvracia. Som presvedčený, že tento všeobecne prijímaný názor je mylný a že mýtus o priepasti medzi kresťanskou teológiou a prírodnými vedami oslabuje našu kultúru a popritom ochudobňuje duchovný a osobný život generácií, ktoré mu uverili.“ „V tejto práci sa implicitne pracuje s predpokladom významu vzťahu medzi „vedou“ a „náboženstvom“, a to nielen pre zdravý vývoj oboch oblastí, ale aj pre budúcnosť ľudstva. Vzťah medzi oboma stranami, uchádzajúcimi sa o lojálnosť ľudí, je pravdepodobne najdôležitejšou výzvou, pred ktorou dnes stojí ľudský intelekt a duch.“
