    His voice and accent are absolutely perfect.

    It’s a bit dissatisfying that he left out the last line of that essay followed by “those who want heaven most have served earth best”, which is, “those who love men less than God, do most for men.”

      Agree. A mistake by the reader.

    His reclassification of Nature as a sister recalls Francis of Assisi, who even regarded her as a "younger" sister in need of loving correction.

    I am constantly frustrated by people who have absolutely no qualifications making comments about the so called "atomic age".

      Why did I bother to obtain so many engineering degrees if any writer is supposedly competent to comment on this topic? He probably knows more about neurosurgery then he does nuclear engineering... We make so many horrible decisions regarding technology because politics drives the discussion not competence. The net result has been disastrous energy policy and other outright stupid decisions regarding high technology. The same is often true in the medical field. We accept input from entertainers who have no knowledge whatsoever. People need to require competence before believing the absurd statements that have been made for so very long. Would you ask your plumber about your cancer treatment? How about your hairstylist? This in no way questions a person's intelligence. The issue is competence!!! Our young people have been brainwashed with Absurd and outlandish lies regarding technology and the net result is a disaster in the making. For the last 40 years I have watched the media attack competent engineers and accept comments from incompetent but greedy politicians. People need to realise that there are billions of dollars to be made as an activist!!! But the media does not require competence to be an activist as shown by the fact that they accepted the ridiculous claims of a girl who should be in high school but whose parents have made millions of dollars abusing their child as an activist when she has absolutely no competence whatsoever!!! This is beyond absurd! People need to wake up and stop being played for fools.

    Science says MultiVerse... I say 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Heavens!! We exist in two Universes at once... Like magnets, our "Soul" brought together the material of 'This Universe' around 'us'.
