Wonderfull:
"How is it possible that someone, living on this planet in the 21st century, not knowing why he is here and how he came there, could take the responsibility to govern the others? That is like: to have the president who thinks that the Earth was flat!"
I love those two!

@NiteSaiya I think you're talking about a church of common sense. Problem is, no one would go. ;-)

@etbrdelight I know. Fortunately him being wrong means something phenomenal. I'm very excited.

@TheNubbbler I never thought I'd say I'm glad that Lawrence Krauss is wrong. But I am.

Science has to become political..... not being so seems to be the problem

How great it is that Lawrence Krauss has been proven wrong. Cosmos is coming.

@sniped101 well you're in luck because Seth MacFarlane and Neil DeGrasses Tyson is bringing this back :)

Part of the issue may be dispelling the notion of "Social Darwinism", something that Dawkins quite regularly comments on that gets passed over by the religious. Darwinism isn't the predicate to base our morality on and evolution accounts for morality (even conspicuous giving, where neither our genes nor our kin's benefit directly). On a deeper level, meme inheritance can be more important than genetic inheritance. Right wing libertarians misuse the title of the "Selfish Gene" to dismiss empathy.



Imagine a "church" alternative for Science. Not a University with a massive charge for attendance, grading, curriculum, etc. But an intellectual forum open to all where people could attend and take part in discussions just like the one presented here between Dawkins and Krauss. People could speak and raise questions and source their information and organize group experiments or even multiple private experiments and present them amongst the congregation.
SOMEONE MAKE IT HAPPEN.
