Science and God

This reminds me of a conversation between Neil deGrasse Tyson and a televangelist.  Tyson was asked, “So we don’t understand dark energy.  Couldn’t that be God?”

He replied, “If that’s the way you want to play it, sure.  But just remember you’re standing on an island that’s getting smaller with each passing year.  A couple hundred years ago, we thought thunder and lightning were God.”
