Be at peace and secure your bandwidth. The truth has a very nasty habit of surprise. As simple a truth as switching the postion of the earth and the sun. These things can take a little more time than anticipated. One needs to be sure. :) Faith?

In good faith, I consider myself "Catholic". On the other hand, I can truthfully say that Stephen Hawking makes more sense to me than any contemporary religious leader up to and including the Pope. (I also suspect Stephen Hawking knows considerably more about the Mind of God than any past or present Pope.) MLS You want conundrum? In good faith, I consider myself “Catholic”.

The "Origin" of the universe. The "Origin" of the species. hhmmm We are so close, we just need more funding to finish the job. We need huge particle accelerators, and lots of computers, and well if you want the answers, you know, these things cost money and take some time.

Hey people it has been over 100 years, and billions of dollars in research funding, so where are the answers? Hey folks can we at least get an ETA? I'm not fussy, I'll take one origin or the other.

The “Origin” of the universe.
The “Origin” of the species.

“The Origin” was published in 1859, and “Special Relativity” in 1905.

Everyone is asserting that we are so close …

If we were that close, would we not already have intelligent autonomous systems aplenty?
