Man-made computers are limited in their performance by finite processing speed and memory. So, too, the cosmic computer is limited in power by its age and the finite speed of light. – Paul Davies
To expect alien technology to be just a few decades ahead of ours is too incredible to be taken seriously. – Paul Davies
In science, a healthy skepticism is a professional necessity, whereas in religion, having belief without evidence is regarded as a virtue. – Paul Davies
The way life manages information involves a logical structure that differs fundamentally from mere complex chemistry. Therefore chemistry alone will not explain lifes origin, any more than a study of silicon, copper and plastic will explain how a computer can execute a program. – Paul Davies
