Science has done an incredibly good job of explaining the world we live in. Many questions have been examined through this lens, which has proven to be powerful enough to convincingly shed light on subjects which seemed  out of its reach, or simply too complex.  Armed with the technology that science has helped us to develop we aim our powers of scientific methodology at mysteries of all sorts, including many which were formerly reserved for metaphysics, religion, and science fiction.  But humans still have some fascinating, fundamental, unanswered questions which science struggles with.  Consciousness, the nature of reality, the fine-tuning conundrum, self-organization of life, interpreting quantum uncertainty, to name a few, are areas where science is at least partially speculative in its explanations.  These are areas to be looked at from many angles, considering the views of the best ideas from any discipline.  This is the place to bring bold thinking and healthy skepticism.  This is where The Brain that Meets the Universe lives.
