The curator sounds like a pretty interesting person

"Religion needs science to keep it away from superstition and keep it
close to reality, to protect it from creationism, which at the end of
the day is a kind of paganism - it's turning God into a nature
god."[2].

I think that statement is kind of relevant to some of the wacky
conversations we've had on here recently (especially the alien life
ones). Science and God can co-exist.
