i try to be an original thinker. i lack formal education having quit school at 13, so i often have to express myself in ways often not traditional to science. i have a deep rooted need to know why/how there is a thing called reality. existence doesn't make sense.
i don't think most people really grasp how deep, profound and mind boggling the question "why is there something rather than nothing" is.
i think the more you ask it in earnest, the crazier it gets.
i view atheism as another form of dogma. i consider people like Michael Shermer to be, although a nice person, a very limited, short sighted, easily satisfied thinker. as well as anyone who discounts philosophy.
i respect people like Neil Turok and Daniel Dennett a lot.
i wish lawrence krauss would stop throwing digs at people who don't think like him, it takes away from someone who otherwise would be a great guy.
like everyone else, i have my own theories about many things, but they come second to that which is known.
