There is a fundamental difference between religion, which is based on authority, and science, which is based on observation and reason. Science will win because it works.

One of the basic rules of the universe is that nothing is perfect. Perfection simply doesn't exist.. Without imperfection, neither you nor I would exist.

I think computer viruses should count as life.. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image.

Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Never give up work. Work gives you meaning and purpose and life is empty without it. If you are lucky enough to find love, remember it is there and don't throw it away.

A theory is a good theory if it satisfies two requirements. It must accurately describe a large class of observations on the basis of a model that contains only a few arbitrary elements, and it must make definite predictions about the results of future observations.

But the idea that God might want to change his mind is an example of the fallacy, pointed out by St. Augustine, of imagining God as a being existing in time: time is a property only of the universe that God created.
