This TED talks by Sir Ken Robinson, which posits that creativity should have equal prominence in public education as literacy, is just marvelous. I especially like the part about the drawing of God by a child.

And while we’re on the subject of God, check out two science humour pieces I wrote a while back that suggest how lucky the scientific world is that certain passages didn’t make their way to the bible (one for stem cell research, and the other for evolutionary biology).
