Where was Jerry Coyne? I could hear him but only see the background curtain.

People in the most religious states are merely trying to be in Darwin’s Waiting Room.

Jerry you forgot Ernst Mayr!

Find most religions are merely a desire for humans to be extraordinary of all of life. It’s a strange ego trip morphed in a fanaticism.

The one issue in this speech on which I part company with him on is his somewhat socialistic viewpoint, not only advocating universal healthcare, which is just one issue, but also eliminating income inequality. I wonder what he means by that? Have everyone have virtually the same income and wealth? It's the old socialist impossible dream.

I would prefer to see the mind open itself to other possibilities. One is equal opportunity. This is the hurdle that our political leaders have not been able to get over to date. We hear the words "creating jobs" while the job situation stays the same, or "equality" when no effort is given to make a level playing field. Look at the slave trade during the colonial period, and the reason why inequality exists in America today will be self evident. America was a land of self(ish) fulfilling prophets called Caucasians.
