Here's a link to a seminar i found really interesting... it debates the understanding of our universe and time...
Involved are Biologists, Computer Scientists, Philosophers, Cosmologists, Social Scientists...
Chaired by Lee Smolin a proponent of Quantum Gravity rather than String Thoery....
Audio is pretty bad but otherwise its awesome...

You are not your job, your titles, your possessions, your degrees, your lovers, your relationships, your place of residence, your social security number, your ID, your bills, your worries, your bank account, your age or your body. You are the timeless being that created & perceives itself through those things, and you have the power to play or not play that game. When someone asks me "what do you do?" looking for some title to pin me down, I laugh and say "EVERYTHING!" - Blackout

Another shameless bump for people that missed out... I've listened to it a few times now and i think even spiritual as well as scientific people will get things out of it... It will show that some scientists at least are giving thought to the bigger questions and questioning the very foundations of our understanding...
The most interesting things debated are (very paraphrased)...
How can we hope to model the universe using mathematics when we struggle to model biology and evolution.
How integral is time to the understanding of the universe.
