J: Hello, this is the Famous People News, 1605. Today, we have a very special guest today. Please Welcome ...(Drum Roll) Sir Francis Bacon... (Clapping) A: Greetings audience, my name is Francis Bacon... SIR Francis Bacon. J: Haha... Right. So... Tell us about yourself. A: Well, as you should know, I'm from England (you know..like my accent) I'm a philosopher, writer, and a statesman, or in other words, a politician. J: Wow, you have quite a lot of jobs Sir Francis Bacon. It must be hard to manage all that. You've recently published a book and an excerpt from it has become quite famous. Could you tell us what inspired you to write it? A: Well, I mainly wrote it for people that are concerned about the study of science. A lot of people seem to be "worried" about science progressing quickly, or in other words, the Scientific Revolution. J: And... if you had to mention who this was specifically for..? Well, to tell you the truth, I too am fairly religious, and I think that science might irreligious...? A: EXACTLY... I wrote this book for people like you. Of course as well as religious leaders, priests, and the church. J: ... ok... But since this excerpt is trying to convince people, wouldn't it have some bias in... A: AHEM! W0AHH! *SNIFF... Hmm what did you say? J: ...ha..? N.N..Never mind. So... basically this excerpt from the book is trying to convince people about science and it's significance on earth? A: Yes, I think you've got it. I intended to convince people to stop worrying about the progress of science, and it won't interfere with religion. J: Well, many people, from what I know, are worried that scientific beliefs and the study of natural philosophy will replace religious beliefs. Is this true? A: No, no, no x 10. Didn't I just say th..? Anyway, of course Christianity is undoubtably correct and God is the most divine being in the world! The Scientific Revolution is simply scientists discovering more things about the universe and nature and to clear up false well-known facts about the world. J: I see, but if that is the case and science can discover new things in the world, where does religion stand? A: Religion is very important even in science. For example, some people say that natural philosophy, or the study of nature and the universe, will uncover secrets that will attack religious beliefs. However, everyone knows that everything in the world was made by God, as well as natural philosophy. It should be our duty to study these things that God has given us. J: I see, so to clarify everything stated in you're excerpt, it is saying that studying science will not disturb religious beliefs and is actually the work of god? A: Yes, I do believe that God created everything on earth. You see, science and religion can be combined. There is no this or that. Well that's what I believe at least. J: Indeed, wow, you have answered so many of the questions I've had as I read you're article. I'm sure it answered many of our audience's questions as well. A: Yes, now I know that my book was ultimately successful. J: Cough show off cough. A: ... J: Sorry proceed... A: ... Well, even commoners such as yourself understand the concept now. J: ... Right. That is it for today and everyone, give it up for SIR Francis Bacon, who has taught us that science is linked together with religion by god. A: Thank you. (Clapping)
