The universe is God's choral poem, and science is a system of allegories within it. That is the thesis that I propose to expound and defend. Yet it is not a "thesis" at all, if the word "thesis" commits me to a certain kind of strict logical defense. I am not putting forward my thesis that science is allegory as the endpoint of a deductive or inductive argument. Rather, it is a springboard for a program of exploration and reflection that turns upside-down some conventional ways of thinking about science.
