To keep it out ordsprog

To keep it out is anti-education. ... You can't just tell children that they come from monkeys and to forget all about any other theory for how life began and the incredible design of the universe and the human body.

Randy Thomasson

Our children will not survive our habits of thinking, our failures of the spirit, our wreck of the universe into which we bring new life as blithely as we do. Mostly, our children will resemble our own misery and spite and anger, because we give them no choice about it. In the name of motherhood and fatherhood and education and good manners, we threaten and suffocate and bind and ensnare and bribe and trick children into wholesale emulation of our ways.

June Jordan (1936-)

It's a symptom of the commodification of the person. What is it the New Testament says? -- 'You are not your own; you were bought with a price.' Well, in this generation we believe we are our own, and so we can commodify ourselves, we can use ourselves as possessions of ourselves: 'I own myself, it's my body.' And what is more -- 'I own my children, certainly in terms of design and the procreative process. Therefore, I can kill; I can give life. I meet out weal and woe. I'm God.' Taking life and making life become two subsets of the same thing.

Nigel Cameron

Design is the term we use to describe both the process and the result of giving tangible form to human ideas. Design doesn't just contribute to the quality of life; design, in many ways, now constitutes the quality of life.

Infinity is a player of great significance who appears on the stage only when the crucial questions of existence are raised. Infinity offers its services when we seek to know if the Universe began or whether it will ever end, whether life will always be part of its landscape, and whether there are tasks which can never be accomplished. Infinity challenges us to contemplate the duplication of ourselves and all that we hold dear, and to ponder the cogency of all possibilities, potential and actual. It undermines our sense of the precious by suggesting a randomly infinite universe will eventually conjure up the works of Shakespeare, somewhere, as if created by a regiment of monkeys armed with typewriters. Infinity also seeks to guard us from taking the wrong path in our quest to unravel the deepest of Nature's secrets about the ultimate structure of mass and energy.

John D. Barrow

Rhesus monkeys as well as human adults and older children living in a remote Amazon village have been given comparison and addition tasks using arrays of dots, and they show the same abilities we find in 5-year-old Boston children.

Elizabeth Spelke

Intelligent design is clearly not a scientific theory. It's sort of anti-science, in a way, because it says that the world is too complicated, too hard to figure out, so there must be a supernatural answer.

Cats and monkeys, monkeys and cats - all human life is there

[In its pursuit of the biggest, most tantalising question of all - whether there's a grand, all-embracing theory, a unified theory of everything, that will complete our understanding of the laws of the universe - the IAS has become a hotbed of string theorists, who argue that the basic building blocks of nature are not zero-dimensional particles as previously believed but tiny one-dimensional filaments called strings.] String theory is the best candidate to give us a unified understanding of the forces of nature, ... I began working on it in the early Seventies. It never occurred to me then that I'd still be working on it 30 years later.

Peter Goddard

It is not enough for theory to describe and analyze, it must itself be an event in the universe it describes. In order to do this theory must partake of and become the acceleration of this logic. It must tear itself from all referents and take pride only in the future. Theory must operate on time at the cost of a deliberate distortion of present reality.

Jean Baudrillard

In my early life, and probably even today, it is not sufficiently understood that a child's education should include at least a rudimentary grasp of religion, sex, and money. Without a basic knowledge of these three primary facts in a normal human being's life /subjects which stir the emotions, create events and opportunities, and if they do not wholly decide must greatly influence an individual's personality /no human being's education can have a safe foundation.

Phyllis Bottome (1884-1963)

There seems to be a kind of order in the universe, in the movement of the stars and the turning of the earth and the changing of the seasons, and even in the cycle of human life. But human life itself is almost pure chaos. Everyone takes his stance, asserts his own rights and feelings, mistaking the motives of others, and his own.

Katherine Anne Porter (1890-1980)

Klassisk ekonomisk teori, som den är baserad på en otillräcklig teori om mänsklig motivation, skulle kunna revolutioneras genom att acceptera verkligheten av högre mänskliga behov, inklusive impulsen till självförverkligande och kärleken till de högsta värderingarna.

Classic economic theory, based as it is on an inadequate theory of human motivation, could be revolutionized by accepting the reality of higher human needs, including the impulse to self actualization and the love for the highest values.

This [vote] is not an anti-Navy, anti-military, anti-American exercise, ... This is an exercise of people saying we want our human rights protected, we want our human rights respected.
