We animals are the most complicated things in the known universe.

The other way is the multiverse way. That says that maybe the universe we are in is one of a very large number of universes. The vast majority will not contain life because they have the wrong gravitational constant or the wrong this constant or that constant. But as the number of universes climbs, the odds mount that a tiny minority of universes will have the right fine-tuning.

I do think imagination is enormously valuable, and that children should be encouraged in their imagination. That's very true.

I can remember at the age of about six being fascinated by the planets and learning all about Mars and Venus and things.

...it is a telling fact that, the world over, the vast majority of children follow the religion of their parents rather than any of the other available religions.

Undisguised clarity is easily mistaken for arrogance.

The moral law is a reason to think of God as plausible - not just a God who sets the universe in motion but a God who cares about human beings, because we seem uniquely amongst creatures on the planet to have this far-developed sense of morality.
