I have an extreme amount of faith in humanity. We have made it this far in time, built magnificent societies, and amassed a wealth of knowledge. Despite the specters of population growth, global warming, and environmental degradation, I am encouraged to believe that we will be able to meet whatever is around the corner. And there will always be something.
In spite of this human hubris I am always fascinated by how little we really do know at this point in time. With all that we have discovered and built, there is so much to life that just does not make sense. In this TED talk John Lloyd explains that so much of what we take for granted as facts and science are actually invisible. It is simultaneously humbling and inspiring. Enjoy!
