Light of Evolution

“The epic of evolution is science translated into meaningful story.” ~ Connie Barlow

“Our human destiny is integral with the destiny of the earth.” ~ Thomas Berry

“If you study an old-fashioned television screen up close, you’ll see dots of different colors dancing in front of your eyes. You’ll think you are looking at chaos. But stand back, and you will see a picture full of meaning. Something like this happens over and over again as we study the past. Stand too close to the details and it’s hard to see anything but the idiosyncratic actions of individual human beings. Big history helps us stand back from the details and see the patterns. By doing so, it can transform our ideas of what history is about.” ~ David Christian

“As the first truly global creation story, the evolutionary epic has the potential to unite rather than to divide humanity.” ~ David Christian

“Evolution is neither random nor predetermined, but rather an intelligent dance between organism and environment.” ~ Bruce Lipton and Steve Bhaerman

“After all, what nobler thought can one cherish than that the universe lives within us all?” ~ Neil deGrasse Tyson

“Without a meaningful evolutionary worldview it’s impossible to understand yourself, your world, or what’s needed for humanity to survive and thrive in the coming decades.” ~ Michael Dowd
