Science is about nature. And God, if he exists, transcends nature.

I am always struck by the fact that human awareness of our place in nature, like so much of modern science, began with the Industrial Revolution.

Any suggestion that science and religion are incompatible flies in the face of history, logic, and common sense.

We don't regard any scientific theory as the absolute truth

Whether conservative or liberal, fundamentalist or agnostic, the more students learn of biology, the more they accept evolution.

There is no controversy within science over the core proposition of evolutionary theory.

Evolution isn't just a story about where we came from. It's an epic at the center of life itself. Far from robbing our lives of meaning, it instills an appreciation for the beautiful, enduring, and ultimately triumphant fabric of life that covers our planet. Understanding that doesn't demean human life - it enhances it.
