Stephen Jay Gould passed away today.

Paleontologist Stephen Jay Gould, who unlocked the mysteries of evolution for millions of readers with essays on the panda's extra thumb and helped bring natural history museums to popular audiences, died on Monday at his home in New York after a long battle with cancer.

When Gould found himself before the living God, I wonder what he thought of his God-denying evolutionary theories? I suspect he does not think so poorly of fundamentalist Christians right about now.
