Very succinct Time Line of our history for the last 5 billion years. I've always liked National Geographic.

Well, if the birth of the earth and the development of life and the extinction of 99.9 per cent of all species has anything to do with a "God"...it certainly isn't the one who wrote the stories about Joshua or the Tower of Babel or all the kids of two (almost) perfect homo sapiens running around having incest trying to multiply and puzzling over dinosaur fossils!

No. We must look elsewhere! Wonder is a great place to start--like Einstein. Of course, brilliant homo saliens like the two (you know who :-)) can never experience Wonder...because they live with the certainty that attends all ignorance!
