I loved your age of wonder: your third and fourth and fifth years spent astonished, widening your eyes at each new trick of the world-and me standing there, solemnly explaining how it was done. The moon and stars, rainbows, photographs, gravity, the birds in the air, the difference between blood and water. In true life? you would say, looking up and I would nod, like some broken-hearted sage, knowing there would be no answers soon to all the big questions that were left, to cruelty and fear, to age and grief and death, and no words either. And you, like me, will sit and shake your head. In true life? Yes, my sweet, strong daughter, I’m afraid there is all this as well, and this is it: true life. ---------- Keys to the Doors by Robin Robertson

I would have loved for this conversation between these two inspiring and enlightening gentleman to have been a bit more equal. Professor Dawkins may have taken a little too much liberty in expressing things, Yet, Dr. Greene was also fuelling this by asking the greater number of questions. I will have to view this again, as there were moment where Dr. Greene appeared to express a great discomfort with his own agnostic atheism position. Professor Dawkins did pick up on this and tried to help by reflecting thoughts on the concerns Brian was inquiring of. Yet, I am not certain that Brian caught this. Though, I cannot read minds. So, I may be off by thinking this. Thanks for sharing this interview!

Anything that may exist outside space and time can not possibly interact in any way with us who live inside it. Which is analogous to 'natural' and 'supernatural'. Same problem.

dawkins has a wicked sense of humor -. 1:05:50

Never surrender to darkness. Think positive!

I cannot imagine how it must feel to have absolute conviction that our ancestors were apes, and we are mere biological accidents. Even Charles Darwin wrote that the theories of evolution could not explain some biological features ( for example the complexity of the eyes ) which require different aspects of function to appear simultaneously, and therefor suggest gradual development could not account for their mutually interdependent co - operation. Perhaps our perception ( inverted as pointed out by Mr Dawkins ) causes us to mis - understand a bigger picture where there is no competition between science/religion/evolution. .

Michio Kakus type 3 civilization would seem to be very God like to us today. Able to create new universes and time travel and worms holes all that good stuff.

If universe is social it's certain to produce a God.

I will like to see Newton bulls

Isn't the wonder in always hearing someone else and keep pointing you north? So wonderful.

I always told my kids the truth

When it gets to the point about a god, I think its just different imaginings of what exists outside of the universe. I could think of reasons to simulate a universe, and so that gives motive to create a universe, and as an outside observer, may as well be called a god. To the existence inside my simulated universe, god is just a word, an idea. Just a word given to something that is unknowable. I would be an existence beyond their ability to comprehend, just as anything outside of our universe is an existence beyond what we would be able to comprehend. In a way, it really doesn't matter, to us its all the same *_outside_* reality. And in that way, makes anything outside of our universe irrelevant. Except if we can figure out how to hack it. That would be awesome, but also sorta scary. Like a program that learns to mess with physical system components in which it runs, not knowing whether or not it would be capable of breaking it's own reality.
