We know from science that nothing in the universe exists as an isolated or independent entity.

The most watched programme on the BBC after the news is probably 'Doctor Who.' What has happened is that science fiction has been subsumed into modern literature. There are grandparents out there who speak Klingon who are quite capable of holding down a job. No one would think twice now about a parallel universe.

Traditional science assumes for the most part that an objective observer independent reality exists the universe stars galaxies sun moon and earth would still be there if no one was looking.

Science predicts that many different kinds of universe will be spontaneously created out of nothing. It is a matter of chance which we are in.

The universe is governed by science. But science tells us that we can't solve the equations directly in the abstract.

The usual approach of science of constructing a mathematical model cannot answer the questions of why there should be a universe for the model to describe. Why does the universe go to all the bother of existing?

Every science has for its basis a system of principles as fixed and unalterable as those by which the universe is regulated and governed. Man cannot make principles he can only discover them.

If we long to believe that the stars rise and set for us that we are the reason there is a Universe does science do us a disservice in deflating our conceits?

There was no 'before' the beginning of our universe because once upon a time there was no time.

Nothing in the universe can travel at the speed of light they say forgetful of the shadow's speed.
