A blog for the purpose of communicating my views on the intersection of science, religion and society. Written by a layman, for other laypeople with an interest in science.

I also will mix in occasional humor and personal pieces.

It's alive... IT'S ALIIIIIVE!!! Abiogenesis, or the scientific study of the origin of life, is a field in its infancy. Much research has been conducted, but many of the results are inconclusive and at best hypothetical. That is understan...
