Brian Swimme Quotes
The creation story unfurling within the scientific enterprise provides the fundamental context, the fundamental arena of meaning, for all the peoples of the Earth. For the first time in human history, we can agree on the basic story of the galaxies, the stars, the planets, minerals, life forms, and human cultures.

Rather, the story provides the proper setting for the teachings of all traditions, showing the true magnitude of their central truths.
