We choose experts on the basis of one simple criterion: they are among the best of the best at what they do. Of course, that’s not so clear-cut, so we look to a range of factors, including a person’s body of published work, peer recommendations, professional honors, and popular interest. Fame is by no means a pre-requisite to be an Expert, however. If you think you qualify, we invite you to apply to be one of our experts and share your knowledge with the world.

    I should be expert on your site because i am going to change the world i am starting my own sort of religious belief that will unite humanity and eventually we will have enough technology and stuff with a belief that humanitys health should not be put at risk because of religious diffrences and bias aganist other humans in general. and eventually change the world into being a one nation species exploring the galaxy and our untapped mind.(in my belief of the after life whatever thought of whatever happends after death manifests itself when your dying or dead and you carry out your "thought" whie your dead. so if i was a christain i would have a new eternal life with a manifestation of my dream god. or if i was me i would be a good influence on the laws and rules with the way my one nation species worked in its governing. (i have 2 governments that would work) i would have it this way because i helped humanity this much i should give them some guide lines to carry on you know. -Joseph J. BUTE

    I would also like to see David Suzuki on Big Think. Of course the man has been going on about the environment for so long that it`s beginning to sound repetitive, he is still someone worth speaking with. Rom
