"God is a beautiful invention of human mind," says theoretical physicist Greene
He sold millions of books popularizing physics and mathematics. His lecture was even attended by the TV show's Sheldon Cooper, who is doing the same research as him in The Big Bang Theory - string theory. He says we are nothing but the characters acting out a drama that is scripted by mathematics and that our brains search for patterns in the world. God, he says, is an amazing invention of the human brain, who is created by the particles inside our heads. "But that doesn't mean I don't walk out the door after this interview and say: 'Hey, if you're really there, I'm really sorry,'" professor Brian Greene of Columbia University in New York.

"Bůh je krásný, úžasný vynález lidského mozku," říká fyzik Greene
Prodal miliony knih popularizujících fyziku a matematiku. Na jeho přednášku šel dokonce seriálový Sheldon Cooper, který se v Teorii velkého třesku věnuje stejnému výzkumu jako on – teorii strun. Říká, že jsme postavy ve hře, kterou napsala matematika a že náš mozek hledá ve světě vzorce. Bůh je podle něj úžasný vynález lidského mozku, jehož vytvořily částice uvnitř naší hlavy. "Ale to neznamená, že po tomto rozhovoru nevyjdu ze dveří a neřeknu: ´Hele, jestli tam opravdu jsi, tak se fakt omlouvám.´" Profesor Brian Greene z Kolumbijské univerzity v New Yorku.

"Putin is a malignant narcissist, he never admits he's wrong," says Harvard psychology professor Pinker
Steven Pinker, a world-renowned experimental psychologist from Harvard University, studies human nature. He argues that people want the best story. Ideally, strong emotions - a battle of good and evil. He also advises on how to explain to someone that what they believe is not reality, but conspiracy.Why don't we realize that the world, as he himself describes, is becoming a safer and a better place? What are the advantages of democracy? Why did Russia go down the path of tyranny? And how did he happen to smoke even less marijuana than Bill Clinton?
