Cancer Is Like Another Form Of Life.

It May Seem Bizarre, But In My Opinion Science Offers A Surer Path To God Than Religion.

Although The Elusive 'cure' May Be A Distant Dream, Understanding The True Nature Of Cancer Will Enable It To Be Better Controlled And Less Menacing.

Wheeler Hopes That We Can Discover, Within The Context Of Physics, A Principle That Will Enable The Universe To Come Into Existence "of Its Own Accord." In His Search For Such A Theory, He Remarks: "no Guiding Principle Would Seem More Powerful Than The Requirement That It Should Provide The Universe With A Way To Come Into Being." Wheeler Likened This 'self-causing' Universe To A Self-excited Circuit In Electronics.

If We Do Discover More Than One Type Of Life On Earth, We Can Be Fairly Certain That The Universe Is Teeming With It, For It Would Be Inconceivable That Life Started Twice Here But Never On All The Other Earth-like Planets.

The Temptation To Believe That The Universe Is The Product Of Some Sort Of Design, A Manifestation Of Subtle Aesthetic And Mathematical Judgment, Is Overwhelming. The Belief That There Is "something Behind It All" Is One That I Personally Share With, I Suspect, A Majority Of Physicists.
