"Je veux poser la question non pas pourquoi 85 pour cent des enfants dans mon pays, qui est les États-Unis, se disent religieux mais pourquoi 15 pour cent ne le font pas. C'est le chiffre qui aurait toujours dû nous fasciner."
— Neil deGrasse Tyson

Simplified Meaning:
Instead of focusing on why most kids in the USA say they are religious, we should ask why some kids don't say that. This smaller group is interesting because they are different from the majority. For example, consider a classroom where nearly everyone loves playing soccer, but a few kids prefer reading books during recess. It's important to understand why these few kids choose to read instead of playing soccer. By finding out their reasons, we can learn more about different interests and perspectives. This approach helps us see the bigger picture and understand everyone's choices better.
