believe evolution gravity
Evolution is not something you can believe in or not believe in like do you believe in gravity.
believe thinking ideas
People confuse the word cynicism with the word skepticism. One is “you’re not gonna pay attention to anything, think everything’s screwed up, nothing’s ever gonna work out right”, that’s cynicism. But skepticism is, “you’re presented with evidence and you do your best to draw conclusions based on that”. So, as the saying goes, Bill Nye, do you believe in ghosts? No. However, I would love to see one. Bring it on. I’m open minded to the idea, but the more I look into it in a skeptical frame of thinking, the less likely it seems.
believe thinking generations
If we raise a generation of students who dont believe in the process of science, who think everything that weve come to know about nature and the universe can be dismissed by a few sentences translated into English from some ancient text, youre not going to continue to innovate,
lying believe mean
If you meet somebody who says he or she has never dreamed of flying, I don't believe you. I mean, they're lying.
believe optimistic views
When we explore the cosmos, we come to believe and prove that we can solve problems that have never been solved. It brings out the best in us. Space exploration imbues everyone with an optimistic view of the future.
believe years earth
No matter what you may believe spiritually or otherwise, the Earth is clearly not 6,000 or 10,000 years old.
believe engineering people
There's nothing I believe in more strongly than getting young people interested in science and engineering, for a better tomorrow, for all humankind.
running believe keys
Science is the key to our future, and if you don’t believe in science, then you’re holding everybody back. And it’s fine if you as an adult want to run around pretending or claiming that you don’t believe in evolution, but if we educate a generation of people who don’t believe in science, that’s a recipe for disaster. We talk about the Internet. That comes from science. Weather forecasting. That comes from science. The main idea in all of biology is evolution. To not teach it to our young people is wrong.
forests tribes might
If you just take a single human and put him or her in the forest he or she might not do very well without some sort of education which he got or she got from some tribe.
law goal conflict
Our goal in science is to discover universal laws of nature. If one's faith requires one to abandon or ignore natural laws, well, that person is going to have trouble reconciling religion and science. Otherwise, there is no any conflict.
crazy years earth
Religion is a completely different thing from the claim that the Earth is six thousand years old. That's just crazy.
apples taste next
The thing about a theory in science is it allows you make predictions. Evolutionary theory allows us to predict what apples will taste good next harvest.
people shapes might
The strange thing about grinding that might surprise many people is that you can grind things and shape them using materials that are generally somewhat softer than the thing you're grinding and shaping.
ideas gold credit
The future of commerce is going to be all electronic. The gold standard was a fine idea, but electronic changes of funds and credits will be the future.
