In Walker Percy's "Love in the Ruins," the protagonist, a doctor and an inventor, recites what he calls the scientist's prayer. It goes like this:
"Lord, grant that my work increase knowledge and help other men.
"Failing that, Lord, grant that it will not lead to man's destruction.
"Failing that, Lord, grant that my article in Brain be published before the destruction takes place."
