Everyone Who Believes In Telekinesis, Raise My

A Lot Of People Hate My Skepticism, And I Think I Understand Why. The Psychics Offer Wonders And Endless Possibilities In A World That Often Seems Difficult And Mundane. They Promise Health, Wealth, Wisdom, Eternal Life. But If You Examine The Record, It's Not The Psychics But The Hard-nosed Scientists Who Have Actually Delivered The Things That Improve Human Life. And, To Me, Science Describes A World Far More Interesting Than Any Psychic Fantasy. It's A Good World -- Not Perfect -- But It's Ours. So We'd Better Learn To Live With It, The Way It Is.

I Am In A Very Peculiar Business: I Travel All Over The World Telling People What They Should Already Know.

Religion Is Based Upon Blind Faith Supported By No Evidence. Science Is Based Upon Confidence That Results From Evidence - And That Confidence Can Be Modified And/or Reversed By Further Observations And Experimentation.

It's Dogma, Unchangeable, And Unaffected By Reality And Whatever Facts We Come Upon In The Real World.
