Week 2, Is the Universe weird?
I don’t think the Universe is weird. I think the Universe just is the way it is and it is kind of useless to ponder whether or not it is weird. We might think it is weird, but that tells us more about us than about the Universe. The Universe is chock full of stuff and phenomena that might seem to make no sense to us, but then again I think that that tells us more about ourselves and our place in the Universe

Yeah, I feel that! How can we presume to be in a position to judge the normality of the Universe? Anything can seem "weird" if you've got a properly-skewed perspective of it, and our perspective on the Universe is pretty darn skewed. Maybe the Universe thinks WE'RE weird, because we don't "get it"?
