Faith is not the opposite of reason. Faith rests squarely upon reason, but with the added component of revelation.

Science is... a powerful way, indeed - to study the natural world. Science is not particularly effective... in making commentary about the supernatural world. Both worlds, for me, are quite real and quite important. They are investigated in different ways. They coexist. They illuminate each other.

I'm a pretty informal guy. I ride a Harley.

A lot of science doesn't require big "ns" but if you're trying to understand something about human health and you're looking at interventions that are not going to be either killing you or making you live forever - they're going to have some tweaking on the outcome - you need big numbers or you don't have enough power.

What wakes me up at night is this next generation and what's happening to them. And they're invariably excited about the science that they're doing, but invariably anxious about where there's a future.

The airman must possess absolutely untroubled nerves.

I'm a serious Christian. I take my faith seriously. I try to practice it every day of the week, not just on Sunday.
