Just finished The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins, and I highly recommend it to any and everyone who pays much mind to the questions of life and such.

Also just finished reading The Man-Kzin Wars by Larry Niven, whose entire known space universe is a goldmine of good stories for sci-fi lovers.


The atoms that make up you and me were born in the hearts of suns many times greater than ours, and in time our atoms will once again reside amongst the stars. Life is but an idle dalliance of the cosmos, frail, and soon forgotten. We have been set adrift in an ocean whose tides we are only beginning to comprehend and with that maturity has come the realization that we are, at least for now, alone. In that loneliness, it falls to us to shine as brightly as the stars from which we came.
