“Faith is clearly not enough for many people. They crave hard evidence, scientific proof. They long for the scientific seal of approval, but are unwilling to put up with the rigorous standards of evidence that impart credibility to that seal.

We're worried - and for good reason - about what it means for the human future if we have only ourselves to rely upon.”
