"we may wait in peace and tranquillity till there is some real collision between Scripture authoritatively interpreted, and results of science clearly ascertained, before we consider how we are to deal with a difficulty which we have reasonable grounds for thinking will never really occur."
John Henry Newman, The idea of a university defined and illustrated, Discourse VII.5, "Christianity and physical science: a lecture in the School of Medicine" (ed. I. T. Ker (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1976), 355).
