Stars were falling deep in the darkness As prayers rose softly, petals at dawn And as I listened, your voice seemed so clear So calmly you were calling your god Somewhere the sun rose, o'er dunes in the desert Such was the stillness, I ne'er felt before Was this the question, pulling, pulling, pulling you In your heart, in your soul, did you find peace there? Elsewhere a snowfall, the first in the winter Covered the ground as the bells filled the air You in your robes sang, calling, calling, calling him In your heart, in your soul, did you find peace there?
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne

Loreena McKennitt - Full circle
Stars were falling deep in the darkness As prayers rose softly, petals at dawn And as I listened, your voice seemed so clear So calmly you were calling your god Somewhere the sun rose, o'er dunes in the desert Such was the stillness, I ne'er felt before Was this the question, pulling, pulling, pulling you In your heart, in your soul, did you find peace there? Elsewhere a snowfall, the first in the winter Covered the ground as the bells filled the air You in your robes sang, calling, calling, calling him In your heart, in your soul, did you find peace there?
