None of the cultures of ancient China, India, or the Middle East produced science; modern science on which the whole world now operates is a Western invention (Jaki, 1990). Most ancient cultures were non-Christian, and the advent of Christianity correlates with the birth of science around the fourteenth century AD…

Aren’t all people meant to be of some use to others? It is the uncommon types that produce not infrequently the more than ordinary works of art, literature, and science. (Michael Dillon) Darwinian selection processes optimize the cost-benefit trade-offs in the evolution of any given species. We have to ask…
