The question is: is the way the universe began chosen by God for reasons we can't understand, or was it determined by a law of science? I believe the second. If you like, you can call the laws of science 'God', but it wouldn't be a personal God that you could meet, and ask questions.

Some people would claim that things like love, joy and beauty belong to a different category from science and can't be described in scientific terms, but I think they can now be explained by the theory of evolution.

You cannot predict the future.

We are all now connected by the Internet, like neurons in a giant brain.

If you are lucky enough to find love, remember it is there and don't throw it away.

The progress of the human race in understanding the universe has established a small corner of order in an increasingly disordered universe.

Do you ever wonder how much deeper the ocean would be without sponges?
