To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.  (Psalms 19:1)

For the scientist who has lived by his faith in the power of reason, the story ends like a bad dream. He has scaled the mountains of ignorance; he is about to conquer the highest peak; as he pulls himself over the final rock, he is greeted by a band of theologians who have been sitting there for centuries.

(Robert Jastrow, God and the Astronomers, New York: W.W. Norton & Co., 1978, 116)
