Quotes

- “The Infinite has to be a relative concept. Go any distance: an infinite space means that there is more to be explored.”

- “Science is paramount, but presents no challenge to a creed that rests on faith-based belief.”
- “The beauty of science and the nature of scientific revelations constitute part of the modern theologian's perspective and toolbox.”
- “Four predictions of the Big Bang Theory have now been verified - surely enough to quench even the most biased critics.”
