Let's look at the page at:

This web site was created by Dan and Bobby. 

The Scientific Revolution is an exciting time in the history of
mankind. It is a time in which many people looked away from the church
and towards logic and objectivity for the answers to their most
fundamental questions about life, death, and the universe. It was, and
still is, a time of great upheavals in the way men and women live their
lives. The Scientific Age is an interesting time to be alive, because of
great strides that are made in technology and knowledge at a rapid
pace. It can be expected that the Scientific Revolution will face many
of the same problems in the future as it has in the past, such as
resistance to change, outdated modes of thought, and personal blind
spots. We hope that this web page will enlighten you to the mystery and
excitement of The Scientific Revolution.

Einstein, not Einstein's own words.
