Skeptical About Skeptics: A Selection of Essays from the Website

4/5 ( ratings)

"The stream of human knowledge is heading towards a non-mechanical reality. The universe begins to look more like a great thought than a great machine.

...Mind no longer appears to be an accidental intruder into the realm of matter. We are beginning to suspect that we ought rather to hail it as the creator and governor of this realm."

– Sir James Jeans, physicist and astronomer, University of Cambridge and Princeton University
