I Fucking Love Science Newton

I FUCKING LOVE SCIENCE! This most beautiful system of the Sun, planets, comets could only proceed from the counsel and dominion of an intelligent and powerful being. This Being governs all things... as a Lord over all; and on account of His dominion He is to be called Lord God (Isaac Newton, 1687).

The meme contrasts an ecstatic science-loving character with Isaac Newton’s solemn theological explanation of the solar system. The joke is the exaggerated enthusiasm for science paired with Newton’s claim that the order of the universe comes from God, making it useful as a reaction to passionate or overly reverent scientific enthusiasm.
