Thomas Henry Huxley

    4. Mai 1825 – 29. Juni 1895

    Thomas Henry Huxley war ein englischer Biologe und Arzt, der den Begriff „Agnostiker“ prägte. Er definierte Agnostizismus als eine Methode, die darin besteht, dem eigenen Verstand bedingungslos zu folgen und keine Schlussfolgerungen als wahr anzunehmen, die nicht nachweisbar sind. Huxley wurde zu einem leidenschaftlichen Verfechter des wissenschaftlichen Denkens und trat entschieden für die Vernunft im Gegensatz zu religiösen Dogmen ein. Seine Arbeit beeinflusste maßgeblich die Debatte zwischen Wissenschaft und Religion seiner Zeit.

      What is life? This question gives a new interest to every department of science that relates to life in any form, and the history of life offers a most suggestive field for research. The paleontology took its origin in the mind of the first person who, finding something like a shell or a bone naturally imbedded in gravel or in rock, indulged in speculations upon the nature of this thing which he had dug out-this "fossil"-and upon the causes which had brought it into such a position. In this rudimentary form, a high antiquity may safely be ascribed to paleontology, inasmuch as we know that, five hundred years before the Christian era, the philosophic doctrines of Xenophanes were influenced by his observations upon the fossil remains exposed in the quarries of Syracuse. From this time forth, not only the philosophers, but the poets, the historians, the geographers of antiquity occasionally refer to fossils; and after the revival of learning lively controversies arose respecting their real nature.
