More on existence
We’re constantly re-evaluating the potential for life. We’re finding it where we didn’t think it could exist, such as volcanic vents and other extreme conditions like under arctic ice. We’re finding life in these incredibly harsh and dynamic conditions, so we’re having to re-evaluate our own ideas of what’s possible on this planet alone.
Joe RoganJoe Rogan United we stand, divided we fall. Let us not split into factions which must destroy that union upon which our existence hangs.
Patrick HenryPatrick Henry A God who let us prove his existence would be an idol.
