Satan and Science

"...Satan does not understand science. Science is a anti-narcissistic phenomenon. It assumes a profound human tendency to self-deception, employs the scientific method to counteract it, and holds truth higher than any personal desire. Deceiver of itself as of others, Satan cannot understand why any beings would not want to deceive themselves. Enamored with its own will and hater or the light of truth, it basically finds human science incomprehensible."

Peck, Morgan S. People of the Lie. Touchstone - New York, 1983 p.208-209
