Titles

Here are the titles I have come up with so far. Any one of them could probably be vastly improved along the same lines, but these are the main ideas, and the examples give you an idea of what I’m looking for. I’d prefer a reference to God being the reason for science, but I couldn’t find a quote that would work, and I couldn’t remember the ones I’ve seen in the past. Which would you like to see as my new title? Do you have suggestions of your own? I’ve added a poll at the end of this post whose results will weigh rather heavily in my decision.

The Friend of Truth

“Plato is my friend, Aristotle is my friend, but my greatest friend is truth.” –Newton

Playing on the beach of the ocean of truth

“I do not know what I may appear to the world, but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the sea-shore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me” –Newton

The image of Truth

“Science is but an image of the truth” –Francis Bacon

Mirror of Truth

“There are two ways of spreading light—to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it” –Francis Bacon

    I really loved “Playing on the beach of the ocean of truth” and the meaning behind it, but it’s just a little too cumbersome to get out mid-sentence. Shame… the quote was epic.

      Yeah, I couldn’t figure out how to make it more concise. It really is a shame. It would work pretty well as a tagline, but I can’t think of a title to go with it. I’ll keep trying to think of better ones, and one that would work with that as a tagline.

        It would be a fantastic tagline! Maybe something along the lines of “Ocean of Truth”?

        No, it sounds bad when a major part of the title is in the tagline (with a few exceptions, of course, but this isn’t one of them). I’ll figure something out. Thanks for the suggestions!

        After thinking of little else for the last few days, the best title I could come up with is “The Christian Theorist.” It’s simple, includes the two things I wanted to indicate in the title (a science website focused on God), and works well with that tagline. It’s not very catchy, but it’s the best I could come up with. What do you think? Any other suggestions?
