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.
