For me, the meaning of life is pretty clear: Living things strive to pass their genes into the future.

Religion is a completely different thing from the claim that the Earth is six thousand years old. That's just crazy.

I meet so many people who are intimidated by arithmetic.

I understand that you take the Bible, as written in English, translated many many times over the last three millennia as to be a more accurate, more reasonable assessment of the natural laws we see around us than what I and everybody in here can observe. That, to me, is unsettling.

If you want grown-ups to recycle, just tell their kids the importance of recycling, and they'll be all over it.

Everyone you will ever meet knows something you don't.

I feel that I've often pointed out that there are countless aspects of life and nature that scientists and scientific thinkers cannot explain. Why the universe is accelerating in its expansion and what came before the Big Bang serve as compelling examples. The process of science provides a way to seek answers to those questions.
