Book excerpt: The Universe Traveler is a collection of loosely related short stories, revolving around a common theme - humanist secularism. The stories celebrate scientific knowledge, rally against organized religion and recount memories of the author living under an oppressive regime as a kid. Some express a desire to see more people reach for the stars in an effort to shake off the cloak of ignorance once and for all that is holding humanity back from reaching its full potential. These stories are to be read and understood from the point of view that human beings, curious by nature, are to continue the exploration they started millions of years ago, wondering off the plains of Africa in search of a better life, culminating in the conquest of space. After all, every atom in the human body was once born inside the nuclear furnace of giant stars - it is only fitting, that our journey leads us back to the same space from where once we came.
