@currankelleher Done! I created two public gists. One csv and one json. I'll be intermittently rerunning my python script to keep them up to date. I'm happy to make any changes that are helpful. I'll also probably improve the layout a little.

@currankelleher I wrote a python script to pull down the data and made a JSON file. I'll send it to you in an email.

Whether science or religion is constructive or destructive depends on our motivation and whether we are guided by a real concern for the well-being of others and an appreciation of the oneness of humanity.
