Richard Dawkins: "The universe is queerer than we can possibly image..."

...but there's nowt so queer as folk.    My favorite "village atheist" on the limits of human perception...an argument which some people might well assert against some of his own theories. At any rate, it's well worth watching; Dawkins is always worth the time. We could all benefit from spending more time thinking about thinking, consciousness, and perception. 

Here's the blurb from the site. 

Biologist Richard Dawkins makes a case for "thinking the improbable" by looking at how our human frame of reference -- the things we can perceive with our five senses, and understand with our eight-pound brain -- limits our understanding of the universe. Think of it: We can't see atoms, we can't see infrared light, we can't hear ultrasonic frequencies, but we know without a doubt that they exist. What else is out there that we can't yet perceive -- what dimensions of space, what aspects of time, what forms of life?

Is he not listening to what he is saying or am I missing something?  Anyway, the talk is well worth hearing and can be found here at TED.   I'll have to listen to it again, after which I'll probably need to update this.
