Quote:There is no possibility whatsoever of reconciling science and theology, at least in Christendom. Either Jesus rose from the dead or he didn't. If he did, then Christianity becomes plausible; if he did not, then it is sheer nonsense. I defy any genuine scientist to say that he believes in the Resurrection, or indeed in any other cardinal dogma of the Christian system.
-- H L Mencken
If you want to use quotes, understand the context. When Mencken most likely said that was when the resurrection of Jesus wasnt taken serious by any academics, scholars or scientists, it was completely dismissed. It wasnt until after the War, in the 50s that scholars and academics began questioning, seriously, if Jesus did resurrect from the dead...
