Contact [1997] is an excellent science-fiction film in which humanity is contacted by extraterrestrial intelligence. One of the main messages this film sends is that the reconciliation of science and religion is possible, but only when the two are in their pure forms, and that pure science and religion both increase the efficiency in which we determine the truths about our universe.

My reading life this year was great. I was able to read 15 books and I enjoyed all of them. In past years reading has been a struggle for me.
