“Theologians invent questions” Ho the irony!! This is just stereotyping and a sweeping statement. The conflict between science and faith is a false dichotomy perpetuated by philosophically illiterate militant atheism. The irony is that one of the greatest scientific discoveries in history was discovered by George Lemaitre and atheist scientists coined the phrase the “Big Bang” as a term of ridicule and they “invented questions” holding back scientific progress for several years. The double irony is that George Lemaitre turned out to be a committed Christian. We can all appeal to authority. Equally, this video is nothing more than an (Appeal to Authority Fallacy) not to mention the (Appeal to Argumentum ad populum Fallacy). (The Band wagon Fallacy) that is the (Appeal to popularity Fallacy). Furthermore, materialism and empiricism is a dogma Hence the famous essay by W Quine (The Two Dogmas of Empiricism) and Noam Chomsky’s common sense critique of eliminative materialism. The fact is that you can’t prove sense data using sense data. You can’t prove that the external world is providing accurate information about reality, existence and experience as this is a metaphysical presupposition that can not itself be justified or grounded in the strictly materialistic/atheistic paradigm as a strict materialism/atheism clearly excludes metaphysical realities. This is a basic observation that can be justified by using Aristotle’s transcendental critique of the Sophists (Appeal to Scepticism Fallacy). Again I’m not the one making the (appeal to authority Fallacy) but Aristotle debated the sophists centuries ago regarding metaphysical truths and the (truth) of the law of non contradiction and the sophists naively responded…. “You can’t prove that Aristotle!! because we could just come along and deny metaphysics and the law of non contradiction?” Aristotle responds brilliantly using a transcendental argument. Aristotle pointed out that when you deny something that’s so fundamental and paradigmatic as metaphysics and the laws of logic, that is the foundations of science itself the proof of that thing is that it’s assumed in its denial. Equally, according to the expert linguist and cognitive scientist Noam Chomsky… “There are only two ways of looking at eliminative materialism (the idea that all things reduce to solid substance). One is that it is total gibberish until someone tells us what matter is. Until someone tells us what eliminative materialism is there can’t be such a thing as eliminative materialism and no one can tell us what matter is”. (Noam Chomsky). Similarly, the brilliant mathematician and Logician Kurt Gödel including Mathematician Georg Cantor and, going much further back, Plato (429-347 BCE) all argued for an intelligible reality that is yet, in the end, forever beyond complete understanding. In the new Testament, Paul argues for this perspective when he says that in the end, even knowledge will pass away and the only thing that will be left is love. Equally, in the Paradiso, the third book by Italian poet Dante’s poetic trilogy the Divine Comedy, offers a number of intellectual discussions, including discussions on science topics. But when the hero (Dante himself) gazes into the face of Christ, trying to reconcile the duality of Jesus’s divine and human nature (one of the many paradoxes he addresses), he finds that he is facing a reality that is beyond intelligibility and thus he attains the beatific vision. Johns’s argument is a powerful one and it can help break us free of the ideological Matrix of physicalism. A strict physicalism, materialism/atheism basically says that nobody took no time to turn nothing into everything a belief that is synonymous with the belief in magic!! And at best it’s synonymous with the belief in miracles. I don’t need secular theologians and secular religion to know what right and wrong is!! If under materialistic premises evolution and mutations are true demonstrating beyond doubt that reality, existence and experience is nothing more than blind random, mindless matter in motion why do good things happen!! ?? “Evolution, then, is the creation myth of our age. By telling us our origins it shapes our views of what we are. It influences not just our thought, but our feelings and actions too, in a way which goes far beyond its official function as a biological theory” “Fatalism is now offered, not as just one possible philosophical attitude among others with reasons given for and against it, but as a fact backed by the tremendous authority of science.” (Mary Midgley). This is not a strawman attack on militant atheism as Mary Midgley was an eminent philosopher, a humanist and a stoic defender of religious expression. Furthermore, according to the prominent atheist philosopher Michael Ruse “Evolution is promoted by its practitioners as more than mere science. Evolution is promulgated as an ideology, a secular religion -- a full-fledged alternative to Christianity.” (Michael Ruse). “The literalists are absolutely right. Evolution is a religion. This was true of evolution in the beginning, and it is true of evolution still today.” (Michael Ruse). “It’s one thing to deplore eugenics on ideological, political, moral grounds, It’s quite another to conclude that it wouldn’t work in practice. Of course it would. It works for cows, horses, pigs, dogs & roses. Why on earth wouldn’t it work for humans? Facts ignore ideology.” ( Richard Dawkins). I rest my case!!

@@EASYTIGER10 First question: I was raised to accept it, and that by itself is a powerful thing. Even when one thinks one is engaged in critical thinking, from inside the bubble it's really hard to tell. In my adult years I ended up attending an evangelical church by chance, and was impressed by how serious they were about the bible and studying it...and that attracted me, so I joined that movement and stayed there for a long time. Why leave? It started with disillusionment...realizing after many years that what the people around me really cared about, in fact really worshiped, was not Christ. It occurred to me that "if these are the people who are indwelt with the Holy Spirit, how can they be focused on such vastly different priorities from what their "head" was focused on?" Based on what was preached, that should not have been possible, but there it was before my eyes. It took THAT to get me to finally take a look at this entire system of beliefs the way I would look at any other, and examine the bible the way one SHOULD examine any other historical text...and only then did I finally realize just how unsupported the whole thing is. I kind of wish I could say that it was just me and critical thinking, but it took something else to get me to take that step.

They are indifferent and are simply unconvinced of a specific argument. It suggests - like you mention - that if one is brought up in a strongly religious environment, one simply can't comprehend what not being convinced of the existence of God feels like, and must therefore be discontented with the world as God made it, and are "rebelling" against him.

It is up to those making a positive claim to provide the evidence. And the more extraordinary the claim, the more proof I’m going to need. If you are going to tell me that a supernatural being exists outside the laws of science then I’m sorry, I’m going to need some evidence for it.

Believing in God is not the problem. The problem is organized religion. One guy said it perfectly. These people who follow these religions are in positions of power and base decisions on their silly religion. That is how it ends up affecting everyone and that is simply not fair. I am so tired of religion and politics mixing together and finding its way into my life. I believe in God but following organized religion is a form of mental illness.

The Monsters: Many times 'religion IS the problem". God doesn't care what religion we are (or aren't); He wants a relationship with each of us. He had that relationship in the Garden with Adam where He walked with him in the ‘cool of the day’. He lost that relationship when sin came into the garden and sin and rebellion caused banishment from God’s presence. . Jesus Christ, God in the flesh, came to restore that relationship - to pay the penalty of our sins. The tearing of the veil in the Temple which separated the ‘common folk' from the Holy of Holies symbolizes this: We are no longer separated (by a veil or anything)… If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (Romans 10:9) Religion is not a part of this gift! Faith in His finished word is. There is only one way to the Father - through Jesus Christ, the Son: BUT there are many ways to come to Jesus. The Gospel message of Jesus Christ is a great place to begin or continue or come back on this journey. Have a great day.

I am so happy God saved me from my academic life. Rather to know Him then remaining in blindfold mode with cherished colleagues. What lots of people (even pastors) don't (yet) understand. God created us according to His own image and likeness. Godly. Mankind/the first Adam fell. The image of God in man got lost. That's why there is all this predicament on earth (selfishness, greed, lust, wars, sicknesses, death, etc). We are all born into that mess. For the fall of man a perfect atoning sacrifice had to be made.... that is what God did in Christ. With His own once and for all perefect sacrifice, He paid the debt for the fall of man for us, so we can be indwelled by His Spirit again and finally receive the divine life of the ages back, the first Adam let got of in the fall of man. An amazing act of grace and love by our creator. That is what you see happening in Christ's first disciples. They too healed all and walked in unselfish love. And yes.... that is still avaible today. The holy blood is in place, the Holy Spirit is here to give us understanding, power and transform us back to origin. Not to be debated about, but to be embraced and be-come. So: The Kingdom of God already came. Through Christ, in Spiritform, in those that understand. Hence the divine healing miracles we experience. God manifested in Christ to give us back the divine life mankind lost in the fall of Adam. Christ, the exact image of the invisible God. The image we were created after in Gen 1. The image we lost in the fall of man. The image that can be freely restored by Christ's blood and Holy Spirit working IN us. What a plan. What a solution. What a love. What a God. Jesus is amazing. It is the ultimate conclusion of the word and plan of God. God came full circle. He Himself stooped down from glory to restore us back to original created value: Christlikeness. Walking in divine healing power and unselfish love. Jesus, born of the Spirit of God, filled with the spirit of God. The "Son" of God, the incarnated word, God in the flesh. For three years He healed all, raised the dead, casted out demons, controlled nature, spoke pure divine truth. He said: "Follow Me. If you see Me, you see the Father. The Father and I are one. The glory I have IN My Father, I give to you. It pleases the Father to give you His Kingdom/Holy Spirit/divine nature. I will send Holy Spirit, the same as Me, He will be IN you, guide you into truth and give you explosive power. The same miracles i do, you will do too, because you will understand that the Father is IN Me and I am IN you. Freely I give you My Kingdom/Holy Spirit/divine nature, heal the sick, raise the dead, cast out demons, freely I give, freely share" Etc, etc, etc. I have experienced thousands of beautifull healing miracles through the power of Holy Spirit IN me already. Broken bones, cancers, covid, all kinds of infirmities healed in seconds. Demons manifesting and casted out by a simple "get out, in Jesus name". Jesus. De name above all names. In Him all power and wisdom is sourced and.... He calls us one with Him. God in man and man in God again. C'mon Jesus!! So.... again: God stooped down IN Christ to restore us back to Gen 1:27 were He said: "Let us make man according to our image and likeness and let them have authority.....": walk as Christ. Christ, the exact image of the invisible God. The image we were created after and being restored to by His atoning blood for the fall of man and indwelling Holy Spirit. You are free to receive this original divine life of the ages by Holy Spirit of Christ/God. Ask Him to guide you into truth. Read the Gospel of John and fall in love with your creator. You are not made for the fall of man and its effects, but for the image/glory of God and to walk like Christ. Holy Spirit is the guide and transforming power that will get you there. Amazing grace. A big leap in faith can be made when we start realizing we are already IN Christ, IN the last Adam. Free from the fall! Loved! Growing into awareness of our new (yet old) godly identity. Changing by Holy Spirit. The most fullfilled life ever. Paul healed all on Malta. He understood and wrote: "As in the first Adam ALL died (lost the divine nature), so also ALL were made alive IN Christ to walk in Zoë (= divine life) again". "IN Christ (the last Adam) we are co-cruisified (dead to the fall and its effects), co-raised (justified/made righteousness, holy, blameless, above reproach), co-seated (one with Him)" "The fullness of deity dwells in Christ and YOU HAVE BEEN MADE COMPLETE IN HIM, who is the head of every principality and power". So.... thank you Jesus! Thank you for redeeming me from the fall of man. Thank you for your Holy Spirit that makes this new (yet old) divine life come alive in me. You are amazing! In the shadow of Peter the sick healed... He understood too and wrote: "By Gods power (Holy Spirit) and knowing Christ, we have become partakers of the divine nature and have escaped the fall of man". The divine life of the ages has been returned to us by Jesus once and for all perfect atoning sacrifice for the debt of the fall of man and His indwelling Holy Spirit in us. Jesus/God is amazing!!! Ask Him to give you revelation and change you to the way it was before the fall of man: Christlikeness. He will do so. For it is written: "the Spirit brings forth after His own kind". "I have come to give you Zoë (divine life) in abundance...."

When you get out of bed in the morning you believe that the floor will hold your weight. This is a reasonable belief as all the other time you have walked on those floors they have held your weight, there is reason to believe. Faith is having a belief without any evidence to back it up. If you have evidence you do not need faith. This could be religious or faith in your lucky rabbit's foot. We all have some faiths nobody is completely rational about everything. It is important to recognize your own faiths so that when you act you understand how much you can rely on the outcome. You may have faith that you will win the lottery, fine but don't get rid of the house until you have actually won.

Moses (a very interesting character himself) came down from a mountain and said that God had told him that God is everything which exists, that it is not possible for man to see (understand) God and that by following a very simple set of rules, humanity would be able to survive long enough to evolve into a next higher level of existence. Such is the only reference I have about God actually describing himself. I find all this to be very logical, persuasive and satisfactory.

@@morriswilburn9858you’re making a God of the Gaps fallacy. Just because there is an issue that can’t be explained yet it has to be God? That’s a very intellectually lazy attempt at understanding the world. “ I don’t understand this so it must mean it’s God” does that sound reasonable?

Regarding 2:27, being "the sum total of all of the causal influences" invalidates rationalism because it ultimately implies that ALL of our inevitable beliefs are delusional. If we were not free to have believed otherwise then we should only be allowed to rationally describe our beliefs as inevitable. Likewise evolutionary determinism has developed in us tendencies towards evolutionarily advantageous delusions, some of which may be impossible for us to recognize as delusions. In a deterministic universe, pretty much every experience and belief has an underlying delusionality which we should not EXPECT to be able to overcome. Of course, a non-deterministic universe is pretty much the definition of super-natural since it would require extra-physical factors to exert physical effects.

That we know what we know and don’t what we don’t, the pursuit of truth is good, the belittlement of anyone that is living there life to their own level of understanding is not. Appreciate the talking/thinking points here though.

They should read the book "The Ice Master" about an expedition to the artic a century ago. Men exhausted, huddled together as the temperature reached -30 and the wind and snow battered their tiny living space. The idea of faith, of God was not incompatible with the belief in science but was there at the very limits of survival. Because it is impossible to know destiny, what we might call chance, why events occur. You can feed all the models, and probability but the random will always always destroy any model. The men didn't know if the ice they were on would split or which routes to take. Beautiful anecdote about the Inuit people praying whenever the situation was very very dangerous. They, the inuit had honed their intuition, had a deep respect for nature and the environment. The European scientists in their arrogance, not all, but many succumbed to disaster because they thought were more intelligent than other members of the crew. It's easy to laugh at god, religion when you are a well paid, upper middle class academic. Different if you are a farmer in the highlands of Peru.

Anecdotes and proof of nothing. Zip, zlich, zero. To your last point, plenty. My mother on her death bed, who had been religious, in her dying hours renounced her faith as utter nonesense and regretted what a waste of time it was.

This is very subjective and the creator of this film has - of course - been very selective in the viewpoints he presents. I am not a follower of religion myself, but neither am I a believer in a lack of balance.

If you could create a universe, would you, A, create it with only positive aspects, nothing negative at all. Or , B, create it where all possibilities and outcomes were available. Surly B has to be the answer because the moment you start picking and choosing is actually un-creating until there's nothing left at all.

@Jim Scott Well my comment concerns imagination and not specifically the existence of God. Before observing the atoms or a black hole, scientists had to imagine them. Therefore I find it strange to hear scientists sound so "conclusive" about even bigger questions like the fundamental reasons why we are here. Imagination is the engine of the human experience. Without the idea of God (whatever form he takes for each of us), this world appears to me without fundamental purpose, and I think it's a way of living that is untolerable for human (which should be consider as an argument). And the main fact is that whether gods exist or not, the sun will destroy us way before we approach that knowledge (or maybe Elon Musk's descent will throw us in another galaxy!)

There are currently 2290 members of NAS. 93% There are from 7.8-10 million scientist's and researchers across the globe. 93%=2122 7.8M total scientist in the world "minimum number for your advantage" 2122÷7.8M=.0002 of the scientific world are part of NAS. This leaves 7,797,878 other scientist to ask...... Hmmm please please tell me again about this tiny pool of people available for this survey...
