"While it is indeed endlessly interesting to live not knowing, there is actually a hell of a lot of stuff that we know, and that we know is true… The real beauty of it all though is that we arrived at all these truths through the vehicle of doubt. No other system of human inquiry goes about discovering truth through the medium of doubt the way science does. [N]o…creationists, you are wrong that all that science offers is doubt. Doubt is only a medium – and a spectacularly successful one at that – to get to the truth. Unlike religion whose truths differ for every person, science actually offers universal truths that can be tested, repeated and verified by anyone who cares to do so. I would rather live exploring the hard road to these timeless truths which are all too real rather than bask in the false glow of ones whose reality can never be demonstrated."
