I think a fundamentalist is somebody who believes something unshakably and isn't going to change their mind.

It is almost as if the human brain were specifically designed to misunderstand Darwinism, and to find it hard to believe

It could be that at some earlier time, somewhere in the universe, a civilization evolved by probably some kind of Darwinian means to a very, very high level of technology- and designed a form of life that they seeded onto perhaps this planet. And I suppose it's possible that you might find evidence for that if you look at the details of biochemistry, molecular biology, you might find a signature of some sort of designer.

I don't think God is an explanation at all. It's simply redescribing the problem.

It's very important to try to inculcate into children moral rules, such as "do as you would be done by."

I really, really would like to see religion go away altogether.

The gravitational constant, if it were off by one part in a hundred million million, then the expansion of the universe after the Big Bang would not have occurred in the fashion that was necessary for life to occur. When you look at that evidence, it is very difficult to adopt the view that this was just chance.
