Science and religion are the two most powerful forces in the world. Having them at odds... is not productive.

Biophilia, if it exists, and I believe it exists, is the innately emotional affiliation of human beings to other living organisms.

If religion and science could be united on the common ground of biological conservation, the problem would be soon solved. If there is any moral precept shared by people of all beliefs, it is that we owe ourselves and future generations a beautiful, rich, and healthful environment.

Even as empiricism is winning the mind, transcendentalism continues to win the heart.

If someone could actually prove scientifically that there is such a thing as a supernatural force, it would be one of the greatest discoveries in the history of science. So the notion that somehow scientists are resisting it is ludicrous.

I want us to save the creation-not just care about it, but to save it.

The beginning of wisdom, as the Chinese say, is calling things by their right names.
