I just watched "Contact" for the second time...

... and I'm forced to wonder:

Why do so many scientists, as well as many religious figures, see science and religion as diametrically opposed to one another?

I mean, I'm a fairly religious person, and science is something that's very important to me. In some cases, scientific acheivements don't adversely challenge my faith, they help me define it.

I'm sure I have more to say, but I'm tired right now. SO, I'll open the discussion up to you, my friends. What do y'all think?

How I know my dad's cool...

So, he just became the president of our synagogue, the Young Israel of Brookline...

When speaking to the congregation at the end of services, he quoted Spider Robinson.

Dude!
