There are no forbidden questions in science, no matters too sensitive or delicate to be probed, no sacred truths.

An atheist is someone who is certain that God does not exist, someone who has compelling evidence against the existence of God. I know of no such compelling evidence. Because God can be relegated to remote times and places and to ultimate causes, we would have to know a great deal more about the universe than we do now to be sure that no such God exists. To be certain of the existence of God and to be certain of the nonexistence of God seem to me to be the confident extremes in a subject so riddled with doubt and uncertainty as to inspire very little confidence indeed.

Each of us is a tiny being, permitted to ride on the outermost skin of one of the smaller planets for a few dozen trips around the local star.

Cleverly designed experiments are the key.

Any faith that admires truth, that strives to know God, must be brave enough to accommodate the universe.

It is the tension between creativity and skepticism that has produced the stunning and unexpected findings of science.

Ask courageous questions. Do not be satisfied with superficial answers.
