It is possible to build a virtual-reality generator whose repertoire includes every possible environment.

Discovering a new explanation is inherently an act of creativity.

Humans may or may not have cosmic significance, and if they do, it will be by hitching a ride on the objective centrality of knowledge in the cosmic scheme of things.

Science is objective. And in my view we cannot take any experimental results seriously except in the light of good explanations of them.

Every problem that is interesting is also soluble.

If you reject the infinite, you are stuck with the finite, and the finite is parochial... the best explanation of anything eventually involves universality, and therefore infinity. The reach of explanations cannot be limited by fiat.

Is the human race a universal constructor?
