Almost interesting is:
Nature does not know extinction; all it knows is transformation.
Everything science has taught me, and continues to teach me,
strengthens my belief in the continuity of our spiritual existence
after death.

Darwin's Nontrivial Error
Funk, Matt. The Linnean Society of London 09. November 2009
http://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/18944/
Darwin's "Origin" launched evolution into 
theoretical orbit and it continues to influence 
its course. This magnum opus detailed a tenable 
solution to the most fundamental problem of human 
existence,and although this Promethean vision 
contains a few minor errors, there is one 
nontrivial error which misguides several crucial 
developments – not only in the evolving structure 
of evolutionary theory, but across the entire 
spectrum of science, including 
politico-economics. This problem has led 
theorists to mistakenly favour earth-based inputs 
over cosmic inputs, to over- emphasize biological 
evolution, and to under-emphasize stellar 
evolution. These perceptive, methodological, and 
logical errors have, in turn, emphasized the 
significance of the individual “struggle against 
competitors” over the cooperative “struggle 
against inclement environments” . . .
