“I want to put on the table not why 85 percent of kids in my country, which is the USA, call themselves religious but why 15 percent don’t. That’s the number that has always shoul fascinate us.”
— 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.
