• Question: I think science has enjoyed an extraordinary success because it has such a limited and narrow realm in which to focus its efforts. Namely, the physical universe. ~Ken Jenkins Do you agree with this quote?

      I don’t know who Ken Jenkins is, but that quote sounds like he is making a sarcastic joke to me. I think the joke is that the physical Universe is not a limited and narrow realm – it is obviously very large and extensive.

      Yeah, unless this was a sarcastic comment, I can’t say I agree.
