prove i-can universe
I can't prove that God doesn't exist, but I'd much rather live in a universe without one.
stress enough being-true
I cannot stress often enough that what science is all about is not proving things to be true but proving them to be false.
real imagination interesting
The universe has a much greater imagination than we do, which is why the real story of the universe is far more interesting than any of the fairy tales we have invented to describe it.
religious battle devil
When a person's religious beliefs cause him to deny the evidence of science, or for whom public policy morphs into a battle with the devil, shouldn't that be a subject for discussion and debate?
spiritual thinking way
We should provide the meaning of the universe in the meaning of our own lives. So I think science doesn't necessarily have to get in the way of kind of spiritual fulfillment.
stars body atoms
The amazing thing is that every atom in your body came from a star that exploded.
people trying way
People are interested in science, but they don't always know they're interested in science, and so I try to find a way to get them interested.
creativity persistence want
Our modern conception of the universe is so foreign to what even scientists generally believed a mere century ago that it is a tribute to the power of the scientific method and the creativity and persistence of humans who want to understand it.
law interesting mechanic
Nothing can create something all the time due to the laws of quantum mechanics, and it's - it's fascinatingly interesting.
space empty scales
Empty space is a boiling, bubbling brew of virtual particles that pop in and out of existence in a time scale so short that you can't even measure them.
heart humor long
At the heart of quantum mechanics is a rule that sometimes governs politicians or CEOs-as long as no one is watching, anything goes.
religion care want
The universe does not care what we want.
xenophobia bases
Whatever the evolutionary basis of religion, the xenophobia it now generates is clearly maladaptive.
community liberty democracy
Organized religion, wielding power over the community, is antithetical to the process of what modern democracy should define as liberty. The sooner we are without it, the better.
