John William Draper quote ✍️

Quote

As to Science, she has never sought to ally herself to civil power. She has never attempted to throw odium or inflict social ruin on any human being. She has never subjected anyone to mental torment, physical torture, least of all to death, for the purpose of upholding or promoting her ideas. She presents herself unstained by cruelties and crimes. But in the Vatican — we have only to recall the Inquisition — the hands that are now raised in appeals to the 'Most Merciful' are crimsoned. They have been steeped in blood!
