I've been an athiest all 32 years of my life, more attracted to science and things that I can see or prove. To the point I've debated people in the past about how stupid the idea of a god is. Recently, I began to find myself being more and more interested in religion. I've no idea why, I just know that I felt a calling to learn more. Now baring in mind that I've been staunchly against the existence of a god, I started to get this strange feeling when I was doing things. The feeling of being watched. The feeling of being judged on my actions. As crazy as this sounds in words, I began to think to myself, "if there is a God, he's watching me right now. I shouldn't be doing this." And so I started to adjust certain behaviours to try to be good, because I felt I was letting someone or something down. The same type of way you don't want to let a parent down. I also, very recently, began to get this feeling of some type of presence. Like no matter where I am or what I'm doing there's a presence with me, and I find myself apologising to this presence I believe to be gid, if I do something wrong. Imagine that? Sounds crazy right? Maybe it is. Maybe I am. Who knows. Now, if you've lived my life, you'd understand how crazy it sounds to me or anyone around me to be apologising in my head to God😂. I mean I feel crazy typing it. As I walk, as I work, play, talk... no matter what I'm doing it's all I'm thinking about. I'm apologising for all the things I've done and all the people I've hurt in my life and hoping I'm forgiven by this presence or power. Even as I sit typing right now, I can feel a presence watching over me and it's almost to the level I feel like I'm typing this to spread the word, or even just to share it. To open up someone else's eyes. I also started reading the bible not too long ago, and again, if you knew the life I was from you'd understand how crazy it is to even have a bible, it really was a huge step. Every single person in my life is completely non religious and would laugh if they seen my bible. I'd be a comple outsider. The only one. The "stupid" one "if I believe any of that nonsense." I've had recent conversations where workmates have laughed off the idea of a god, they think the idea is something to mock religious people over. I didn't defend it. I didn't tell them i was religious. I didn't challenge them and I've found myself feeling riddled with guilt that I never. One of the arguments was "I grew out of religion when I was about 12 when i realised Santa wasn't real either." Unfortunately, I don't have the wisdom, or the information to defend or debate it right now, but I will have, eventually. Full disclosure, I still don't fully know if I'm Christian, I still have doubts, I'm still very much unsure what this journey is. But hopefully it starts to become clearer and clearer over the next few years. If if you've made it this far, thank you! I really appreciate your time🙂

Are you new here?

What are the chances that anything can happen by chance? Nothing can happen by chance because chance cannot do anything. I once had a discussion with a professor at Harvard who said to me the universe was created by chance. I pushed him a little bit on this, used a coin to illustrate the problem. I said, “If I have a fifty-cent piece and flip it up in the air, what are the chances that it comes up heads?” He says, “50/50.” I said, “OK, how much influence does chance exert on the flip of the coin?” He said, “What do you mean?” I said: “Well, the way it comes up heads or tails is determined by how much pressure is exerted on it, what the density of the atmosphere is, how many revolutions it takes, and so on, whether you catch it here, or here, or here, and whether after you catch it you turn it over or don’t turn it over. Those are all the variables. How much influence does chance have?” He still didn’t get it. I said: “Well, look. If you’re using the term chance to talk about mathematical possibilities, it’s a perfectly useful term. But when we ascribe to chance a power to do something, we are saying the chance is something. Now, what is it? What is this mysterious X factor that causes the coin to come up tails or heads?” He still looked at me, and I said, “Wait a minute.” I said, “Chance cannot do anything because chance is not anything.” For something to act, it must first what? Be. Chance is not a thing; it’s no thing; it’s nothing. When you say to me that the universe was created by chance, you are saying the same thing as saying the universe was created by nothing, and you’ve taken a perfectly good word to describe mathematical possibilities and now informed it with magical power. Giving it ontological status, giving it power to do something when it is not anything, and that is the principal idea that is used as a substitute for creation. Now, I know there are some who argue that the universe is eternal and always has been here. That’s another question, but the vast majority of critics today who deny the creation of this world by a self-existent, eternal God appeal to some kind of beginning to all of reality that comes from nothing. It’s the rabbit out of the hat-without a hat, without a rabbit, without a magician. It’s worse than magic; it’s pure mythology. If there ever was a time when there was nothing, there would be nothing now. So there always had to be something, something that had the very power of being within itself or nothing could possibly be. Is there anything more elementary than that. If the equation is God or chance, the only possible solution, is God. Because chance can do nothing. R.C. Sproul

@UniqueG24

Well, who or what made God? Anyway, the professor who supposedly said that the universe was created by chance obviously didn't know what he was talking about (and, by the way, Bayesian statistics perfectly aligns with the coin toss argument, so it's very fishy, to say the least, that a Harvard professor right l wouldn't get the argument). Yes, chance cannot create anything. But that is a total strawman. Of course I can't rule out the existence of God. But I find it much more likely that we (a) don't have nearly enough information about physics and the big bang, and (b) that at some level things start to behave way beyond our realm of comprehension (like quantum physics, but possibly 100x worse). So yeah, between God or chance, I also go with "God". But that is a silly argument/discussion.

@@dannylewthwaite Well . . . that actually IS just what the scientists are telling us. The universe started--apparently from nothing material--about 13.8 billion years ago. Scientists no longer believe that the universe is eternal, though that once was their position. If I understand the theist position, it is that God is "transcendent"--which does seem to be a non-testable, non-falsifiable, non-verifiable proposition. So I am not to sure whether the ball has actually been moved as far down the field, as it were, as the theists would have us believe.

I'm always toooing and froooing but I love Stephens videos about DNA and coding.

One of the more honest confessions I've heard in a while. I think you are on your way to finding what is true and what is false by having an open mind. First, take religion off the table. You may have never thought about it in this way but, think of a transcendent being creating everything we see in reality. There is no religion involved here. It's simply a transcendent being (we call God) creating because he has the ability to do it. Now because none of us were around when he did this, the question is, did he do it? How would we know unless he told us? So now the question is, did he tell us? The answer to that question is a resounding YES! And the way he chose to tell us is through his written Word (the Bible) The explanation of creation of all things is described very simply. He also said that we would know of his existence through his creation. Because God is a personal God not a religion, he cares for you personally because he created you very special and unique. There has been no one, nor will there ever be anyone like you. We are all uniquely created by him. It is perfectly normal to question if he actually exists because we cant see him. When Jesus was here, he said "if you have seen me, you have seen the Father" because Jesus and the Father are one. So be honest with God. Just say "I don't know if you exist and I want to know. Make yourself real to me." He tells us in the Bible that "if you seek me earnestly, you will find me." From there, it will be a learning process (I believe) you are going through right now. Be patient and continue to seek. He will reveal to you what you need to continue in this very special relationship with him. Don't listen to others who want to destroy this process and wreck your goal to learn more. They have always been around and will always be around. Don't forget, you have an enemy who is also fighting for your soul and he uses these people to discourage you and defeat you. All of the suffering in the world people like to blame God for it. The funny thing is, they never put blame where it belongs, and that is the devil himself who hates you! Why does he hate you? Because in the creation event, God said, (and you can find this if you already haven't), Genesis 1:26-27 26 Then God said, “Let us make human beings in our image, to be like us. They will reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, the livestock, all the wild animals on the earth, and the small animals that scurry along the ground.” 27 So God created human beings in his own image In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. We are the only created life on the planet with a living soul. What is that? It's uniquely you. Our souls animate our physical bodies. When our physical bodies die, we continue to live full conscious and aware. This is what the battle is for. Satan knows his end and he wants to pull everyone he can down to the depths of Hell with him. So the battle is to keep you from accepting the free gift of eternal life in Heaven, being "Saved". Because God loves you so much, he sent Jesus to die for our sinful condition and pay the penalty for us. All we have to do according to Gods Word is found here in the book of Romans 10:9-10. "Because, 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. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved." This is what Satan is trying to keep you from doing. And because none of us know when we will die, the Bible tells us that TODAY is the day for salvation. Not tomorrow or a week from now but TODAY. People get up every day and get ready for work or vacation or whatever they are doing and none of us think that today is our last day on earth. Nobody thinks that, but it happens day in and day out! I pray for you and your journey and God's blessings upon you and your family!

The bible disproves ITSELF read it properly.. Deuteronomy 18. 21. 22 And if thou say in thine heart, ‘How shall we know the word which the Lord hath not spoken? A prophet speaketh in the name of the Lord, if the thing follow not nor come to pass, that is the thing which the Lord hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously; thou shalt not be afraid of him. Jesus Lied About Prayer Jesus is quoted many times in the Bible saying that a believer can ask for anything through prayer and receive it. He even goes so far as to say that mountains and trees can be thrown into the sea simply by praying for it. This is clearly a lie, and can be proven to be a lie by any believer. Simply pray for me to be converted to Christianity right away. Or better yet ask God to move the mountains behind my house. He could make a lot of converts that way. If I’m converted today, I’ll post a public apology on my web site and devote my life to spreading the obvious and demonstrable truth of Christian claims. If I’m not converted it would only be fair for believers to apologise and devote their lives to promoting the light of reason, based on sound reasoning, facts and evidence. Here are the quotes from Jesus that proves that the biblical character lied: 1) And Jesus answered and said to them, “Truly I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, `Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ it will happen. “And all things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.” (Matthew 21:21-22 NAS) 2) Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives; and the one who seeks, finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. (Matthew 7:7-8 NAB) 3) Again I say to you, that if two of you agree on earth about anything that they may ask, it shall be done for them by My Father who is in heaven. For where two or three have gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst. (Matthew 18:19-20 NAS) 4) Amen, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it shall be done for him. Therefore I tell you, all that you ask for in prayer, believe that you will receive it and it shall be yours. (Mark 11:24-25 NAB) 5) And I tell you, ask and you will receive; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives; and the one who seeks, finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. (Luke 11:9-13 NAB) 6) And whatever you ask in my name, I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything of me in my name, I will do it. (John 14:13-14 NAB) 7) If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask for whatever you want and it will be done for you. (John 15:7 NAB) 8) It was not you who chose me, but I who chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit that will remain, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name he may give you. (John 15:16 NAB) 9) On that day you will not question me about anything. Amen, amen, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in my name he will give you. Until now you have not asked anything in my name; ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete. (John 16:23-24 NAB) A lot of Christians ignore what Jesus actually says in the Bible. They also tend to add things to the actual words to make them say something else. If you honestly and truthfully read these quotes, without adding to them, it is very easy to see that Jesus is not saying that God will think about your prayers. He says God will grant all your prayers. Clearly, God doesn’t grant all prayers and this proves that Jesus was a habitual liar.

​​@@vivian9187There's always going to be gaps in our scientific knowledge, if there wasn't then we'd be "finished" with science. You don't get to put God in all the places where the answer should just be "we don't know yet". Meyer is a disingenuous liar-for-Jesus with an admittedly pleasant demeanor, air of authority and trustworthiness about him. I get why he's convincing, he seems like he's well versed in both sides and arrived at sensible conclusions. But please realise that once you step outside the Creation "science" bubble around The Discovery Institute, Answers in Genesis and the like you'll realise that we really do know a whole lot more than they want you to think. They often misuse buzz words, reference the state of fields as they were decades or sometimes even over a century ago, or even cherry pick statements blatantly out of context. For example, Meyer loves to use the Cambrian Explosion as evidence of a creation event that defeats evolution, but the Cambrian saw the emergence of hard bodied organisms that fossilize much more readily and the "explosion" covers a period of over 10 million years. It fits perfectly with evolution. Though he is a credentialed scientist he works as an apologist. His work contributes no understanding that help us to understand, make predictions or otherwise utilise the world around us. They simply help to reaffirm the faith of those who who are seeking that. And that's fine, if what you're really looking for is to have your faith strengthened. But if you're looking for genuine scientific enquiry look elsewhere.

@@AM_o2000 I don't intend to layout all that is in the gospels to support my statement of Jesus's claim to be God in the flesh. This type of forum is not suited for in depth debts. However there are dozens of places in the gospel where he makes that claims that can only be attributed to God. For example, he forgive sin and said he would judge. He said he was the good shepherd and the messiah. Only God can make those claims. In addition, the Jewish leaders said he claimed to be God. Furthermore, his disciples were willing to die to support the claim that he rose from the dead. There are those that will die for a lie that they think is true, but these men said they saw him, eat with him, spoke to him, touched him, after he rose. If they had made up such a lie, they would have recanted their statements once faced with torture and death. Criminals turn in their accomplices all the time, so as not to face a few years in prison. It just isn't logical that these men and others would be willing to die for a lie. Lastly, the messiah, Jesus, was predicted through the prophets to come. Daniel told us when he would come. Jesus said he would die and rise again. Since Jesus said he was God and said he would give the sign of Jonah, which is to say he would die and rise again, and if in fact his disciples saw him risen, then he is God. If you have any interest at all in the truth of the resurrection I such you go here on KZread and search for Gary Habermas evidence for the resurrection. He has several video lectures, which go through the evidence.

Well, it doesn’t mean god didn’t do it either. So far the only explanation for the origin of matter and fine tuning is a powerful intelligence that exists outside space, time and matter. Whether you want to call it “God” or something else, it is as far as we know the only explanation, so why not embrace it? When Darwin came out with his theory to explain the appearance of the different species, which today is being debunked, did people say: “well it’s not because we don’t know how all living thing’s appeared that natural selection is true”, no, they embraced it. So, if all evidence points to an intelligent creator, then the reason why 49% of scientists in America and a portion of the population still refuse to even give a chance that “God” exists is because they do not want to be accountable to anyone or anything for their actions, plain and simple.

This seemed like an odd pairing for an interview to me, having a lot of familiarity with both, but it was fantastic conversation. Wow..

I can’t prove that God exists, but I can’t testify that my life has become more enjoyable and peaceful since I have returned to Christ. I treat people better and forgive them when they might say or do things that might offend me & I am treated better now than I have ever been.

The most recent poll data from pew research in 2024 shows “spirituality” is on the rise globally. It is true more people are identifying as not religious while simultaneously saying they believe in some non material supernatural phenomena. I would argue the respondents saying they are not religious but are spiritual do so for a multitude of reasons but one of which is social stigma. It’s easy to say something created the universe. Not as easy to say a specific God. All this is to say, the belief in a supernatural, non material thing is on the rise.

Truth is if you look at anything that is assembled and able to competently perform specific tasks or permit specific realities, you will always assume intelligence had a role in it. Yet for the most complex assembly of interdependent constants that makes complex life possible, it’s suddenly unlikely to point to intelligent design but more likely a random outcome of processes by chance? That seems intellectually inconsistent and dishonest. Regarding my other point, it’s quite logical that a human cannot create a human prior to the existence of humanity, a car cannot be involved in a car accident prior to the existence of cars and matter can’t create matter prior to the existence of matter. That’s logically consistent. A theory that requires the universe to come from the universe prior to the existence of the universe is what is actually illogical and has no framework to be treated as the way we should understand the universe’s existence

1) There needs to be an uncaused, eternal first cause outside of the universe for anything else to exist. This eliminates the truth of any pantheistic religions with multiple gods who are part of creation. 2) The historic reliability of Jesus Christ is very well documented. Secular scholars and historians agree that he existed, that he was crucified, that his followers believed they saw him arisen after his death and that Christianity exploded in the first century even amid very harsh conditions and persecution. There are no good theories to explain these facts other than that Jesus actually rose from the dead, thereby confirming everything he taught. He did not leave room for any other prophets or religions, thereby eliminating Judaism and Islam. By process of elimination, only Christianity remains as a credible religion. 3) God did not have a creator as he is the ultimate, uncaused first cause. Logically, there must be such an uncaused first cause for anything else to exist. This is basic philosophy. I have personally met Jesus Christ and He has changed my life radically. I now have forgiveness of my sins, peace with God, a purposeful life, identity and the hope of eternal life. You can have all these too if you just turn to Jesus. Ask Him to reveal Himself to you, and He will. His death on the cross proves how much he loves people.

I was in care when I was a kid, but around 7 years my siblings and I were sent to live with the most unruly person I know to date, my mother. One of her grooming methods was that she taught us how to shoplift, and I was great at it. I was shoplifting naturally for a number of years. At the age of 13 years old, I was left in a shop alone (as shopkeeper who never left the kids from our school alone either), and I remember to this very day thinking happy days and reaching for a sweet to knick, with no conscious or conscientious thoughts about God at the time (because my mother was no Christian, an alcoholic but no Christian), I heard a voice from no where telling me to put the sweet down, God is watching me. Never stolen since, and I have been living on my own since I was 15 years old and have had times when I had no money whatsoever. From care to homeless hostel, thanks to God just being there with kind instructions and no judgement, I never smoked, never drank (never been drunk in my life) and never done drugs. Also been ordered to not eat pork. Not that can I prove if God is there or not, it's more or less he has been there with me since I was 13 years old God whether I have wanted them or not.

I’m thinking of writing a book “How to convert Atheists to Religion - A beginners Guide” and wondered if you had any advice? Remember people, this is about winning hearts and minds! This is what I’ve got so far: Chapter 1: How to mock science for the absurdity of claiming the universe a) has a beginning and/or b) has no beginning (is infinite), whilst proclaiming the obvious truth of an infinite God, with no sense of irony. Chapter 2: How to mock the legitimacy of science, using selective pseudo-scientific ideas, whilst proving God through the scientific principles established in any given holy book of choice. Chapter 3: How to mock science for having scientists with contradictory views, whilst explaining there is only one version of God (albeit it with thousands of different interpretations and contradictions). Chapter 4: How to mock atheists for having no concept of good and evil because they have to decide for themselves, whilst theists fully understand good and evil, because it’s whatever their God tells them (otherwise known as the ‘suicide bomber justification’). Chapter 5: How to mock atheists/scientists for not being certain about things, which is clearly a far inferior position to hold than the absolute certainty of truth that we hold as theists. Chapter 6: How to mock atheists/scientists for believing in evolution, because everyone knows that the world is only 6500 years old and you can’t possibly grow a man from a fish. Chapter 7: How to mock scientists for their concept of evidence, which seems to involve repeatedly and empirically testing claims to establish predictable outcomes, as opposed to the far superior documentary evidence of second hand witness accounts of first century peasants. Chapter 8: How to mock atheists for denying the power of prayer, when God clearly prioritises the faith healing of middle class Americans over the less deserving starving African masses. Chapter 9: How to mock atheists over their disrespect of our religious leaders, who are perfectly justified in covering up any form of corruption or criminal behaviour within their ranks, because they are Gods chosen ones and beyond reproach. It’s only in draft form at the moment, but any more ideas on how we can convert these lost souls, or alternatively remove these godless creatures from the face of the earth, in the name of god’s love, would be much appreciated.

What a fascinating and profound discussion. I’m very intrigued by Dr. Meyer’s book. Thanks for having him on your show.

Dawkins is so completely honest in saying he can’t explain it, unlike those who can’t explain so therefore God

'I cant explain', actually means, 'Im not willing to accept a necessary, non-material being'. Its that simple. And while its possible that some who cant explain opt for God, not all who opt for God cant explain. Considering material existence must have began to exist, a non-material being who is necessary must exist.

Who created God, who created the thing that created God ,who created the thing that created the thing that created God.....

"If there is a God it reopens that question of ultimate meaning. The French existentialists like Sartre used to say 'without an infinite reference point nothing has any lasting or enduring meaning'. But if there IS an infinite reference point, and that infinite reference point is personal, that is to say if the universe was created by a personal agent, who wants to know us, then the possibility of enduring meaning is again on the table."

NO GOD, NO JESUS CHRIST, NO BIBLE Arrogant, cruel, merciless, and hateful Atheists who HATE all Christians and insult and degrade them as worthless, useless, and undeserving to be honored and respected will definitely bring themselves nothing but their own dishonor, disgrace, downfall and ETERNAL DEATHS, worthless and useless dusts on earth forever.

The IMPORTANCE of GOD, JESUS CHRIST, and the BIBLE Loving, kind, considerate, and respectful persons on earth who honor and obey Jesus Christ as their loving, kind, and merciful Master and Heavenly King and put their faith and hope in his teachings about the "Kingdom of God" and "Resurrection of the Dead" written in Luke 4: 43 and John 11: 25, 26 will definitely bring themselves honor and the loving, kind, and merciful GOD's favor and reward of ETERNAL LIFE and existence on Earth without sufferings, pains, griefs, sickness, and death as written in Revelation 21: 3, 4. All human beings will just return to dusts after their deaths just like the animals as written in Ecclesiastes 3: 19, 20 but loving, kind, considerate, and respectful persons on earth who died recently and thousands of years ago like Abel, Noah, Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Job, Naomi, Ruth, King David, Jesus Christ's Followers and disciples, and many others will not remain as worthless dusts on earth forever, instead, in the right and proper time, GOD will let Jesus Christ RESURRECT them back to life so they can all happily and peacefully live and exist on earth forever as submissive and obedient subjects of the "KINGDOM of GOD" and fully enjoy the eternal love, kindness, goodness, compassions, generosities, favors, and blessings of GOD and his Christ for eternity under the loving and kind rulership, guidance, and protection of Jesus Christ as his GOD and Father's Chosen King and Ruler of the heavens and the earth as written in Revelation 11: 15.

Isn't that a bit like saying "If there's a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow and if I was the first one to find it, then the possibility of endless wealth is again on the table."

@@seantaylor4095 No. It isn't like sauing that at all.

It is interesting , that Jesus said ...."Except you become as a little child you can't enter the kingdom of God" , it Speaks of a Creator who understands that his creation at this stage of their understanding says , look my creation , they (Children) just trust that their parents will provide for them without knowing exactly how that will happen. what i see in stephen Meyer is a man with great understanding and intelligence , who understands it means nothing of worth except it is seasoned with "Humility" . The Apostle Paul the most prolific author (Inspired by God) of the books known as the New Testament said..."If ANY man thinks he knows something , he knows nothing" ....he also said " That I may know him (God) , and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;" This man (Paul) was a very intelligent man , and yet being humbled in his meeting with God forsook all he knew and knew he had to become a "servant of the most high", because it is only in this state you can truly KNOW GOD. When Stephen articulated The lead up and death of His mother he stressed more deeply the real life affect for himself of the experience than all they asked and answered before , because it was real to both of them , not just questions that can never be answered by the "Created ones " but real life experience of what every human will go through. What a shame that the very many of us only think about God when we are confronted with the death of a loved one and think about eternity at that time , only to leave that situation and never consider it again till the next funeral. The God who created you, also created the possibility of relationship , and wants you to enter into one with Him, if you can humble yourself , and believe that the act of Jesus dying for your sins happened , you can begin the walk of salvation with Him,, if you genuinely speak to him and confess your sins , ask for forgiveness you will be enlightened , and your life will never be the same.

I totally agree with you brother, wholeheartedly.

Lol Piers having the Schrodinger's cat arguments with dawkins just hilarious.

It's so strange that he is willing to believe that there is an endless, almighty God, but he can't cope with an idea that there could be endless materia, which always existed.

What a classy, humble and smart man Stephen is. Like others have said, I wish this was much longer.
