Faith is the belief that all the evidence of intelligent design couldn't have existed in the absence of God.

My guess is that we won’t be able to use physical theories to replace morality and similar categorizations because it will not be practically computable to model or deeply investigate individual thoughts, opinions and motivations.

"Believer in a machinastic universe." In other words, believer that under certain circumstances simple things can become more complex and that complexity can compound into things more and more complex. It is also to believe that to deny this on the grounds that it violates the second law of Thermodynamics, is not to understand the second law of Thermodynamics.

Kind of depends on your definition of God. Too many people hear “sky God” and immediately dismiss the idea when there is much more to it than that.

@chrismcclain6518

Maybe sky God doesn’t exist. The Bible doesn’t promote a sky God, but it does contain the writings and testimonies from over 40 authors stretched over a span of 4,000 years that all consistently describe the same God, who and what his is. However, many people today like to conform God to their own beliefs and fantasies of what he is without acknowledging what he SAYS he is. People, times, and society all change, but God has always and always will remain the same. Point being, I believe there is definition for God that is far more credible and consistent than the god we people can each individually define for ourselves (hence, each person’s god is different).

The issue here is your acceptance of vague statements that ultimately mean nothing as there are, in fact, arbitrary due to their subjectiveness. You should understand the paradox that the scientific method is our best hypothesis of dealing with, that "true" or classical knowledge is impossible for a spatially defined frame of reference. We, as a lifeform, are limited to, at best, educated guesses. That we have to operate on faith in our assessments of reality while understanding that faith is an irrational mentality so that we take responsibility for our own actions and refine our assessments to better shape our environment in the chaos of it all. Actually, knowing a thing requires knowing all things but to act requires us to place faith in that we think we know and treat a guess as a fact.

Not sure if this is you just giving an brain teaser, or using it to prove the existence of god. But personally, I think that the god of the gaps argument is pretty poor. Just because WE don't know, doesn't mean its proof of god.

There have been over 3,000 gods worshiped over documented time, and every subsequent religion has simply co-opted from the previous religions and maybe added a few new elements for differentiation purposes. In simple terms, religion had first been developed to explain the unexplainable, and then clearly developed into a societal controlling mechanism. In today’s world, religion is quickly becoming a lazy way to go through life.

God supposed to be all onowikg, all powerful and perfect somehow expected adults with a baby like mentality to obey him and not eat the forbidden frute in which God created and placed in their midts (garden of eden). It like is parents placed a posionus plant into theirs babies play pen and get angry their baby didn't listen to them about not eating poison plant. Such parents deserve to spend rest of their lives in prison. Christianity is self refuting, Jesus and God supposedly one and the same, therefore God cannot be all powerful, all knowing, all loving, forgiving and perfect because God has limitations by not being able to just forgive humanity, instead God went through all the trouble of turning himself into a human in order to sacrifice (human sacifive) himself to himself to please himself which we told is why Christians don’t have to commit animal sacrifices. God committed genocide, Noah flood, killing first born in Egypt including children, Sodom and Gomorrah and etc. In both old and new testaments are contradictory on lots of things example slavery. A lot of passages support slavery and some can be interpreted against it, no biblical laws clearly against owning humans as property.

I would believe in God any God and Religion if there was actually evidence. I was a none believer most of my life but an uneducated none believer who didn’t know anything about science and evidence against Religions/Gods especially Christianity. In 2004 age 19 I was going through a deep depression and I was given Lee Strobel books from deeply religious uncle. I fell for Christian apologetics and creationism because I didn’t know any better. Wasn’t until I researched science and counter apologetics for the first time. Lee Strobel and others like him lie for profits, their arguments reinforced there no evidence for Christianity. Lee Strobel and other like minded apologetics use bible as evidence for the Bible, like the eye witness to Jesus resurrection, empty tomb and etc. with no evidence outside the bible supporting it. Even the exact location of Jesus tomb hasn’t been proven. There are suicide cults like Havens Gate who died for a lie they deeply sincerely believed in, there other suicide cults to. Also none of the gospel writers were actual friends of Jesus, they were written in Greek decades even a century later as is the case of Gospel of John. Writers are anonymous who used the names of Jesus friends. I recommend you read Bart D Ehrman books. Even if they were eyewitness, there are people alive today who claimed to have seen, big foot, fairies, space aliens and etc. if you unwilling to dedicate your life to people you can talk to today, why dedicate your life to claims of people who lived thousands of years ago?

Some of these worldlines represent non-linear undecidables (human experience). By universality, any entity/system that can emulate X (human experience) must be equal to or greater than X. A human mind is Godel/Lobian class, therefore the UWF must be Godel/Lobian or greater.

"Who created God" and "who caused God" are questions no philosopher familiar with the classical arguments for the existence of God would take seriously due to the fact that they are equivalent to asking "who caused that which is uncaused?" or "what cause is prior to the first?". The answer to those two questions is obviously "nothing". And who are you talking to in your little dialogue? Someone who doesn't know the reasons (strawman) or someone who does (steelman). That there is something uncaused which fits all the classical attributes of God can be proved using arguments you may find in books like Ed Feser's "Five Proofs of the Existence of God" which carefully think through what it means for there to be causation (there's plenty of evidence of causation), and we're inevitably led to the existence of something which is causally prior and cannot possibly be anything we'd identify as 'just the universe' or 'just a law of nature'. The arguments also have nothing to do with the eternality of the universe, as you will see.

One of the smartest guys Lex has had on in the total existence category.

lol, hearing him talk about the natural world and "supernatural" world. speaking as though one is legit and the other is for fantasy play time. then turning around and speaking on newton vs Einstein made me actually laugh out loud!! For both newton and Einstein at one point in history what is now considered the natural world of science was at that time consider a supernatural world view of science. I did like how he commented about arguing on what the word supernatural means. but not in the way he meant it, he feels supernatural should be tossed away and only follow the natural. and that felt less sincere and more mokery. this is very sad seeing as how at one point in time earth was flat and to think anything else would be considered supernatural thoughts or ideas, anything but base reality. i mean obviously look around you as you walk around earth seems pretty damn flat.............. so by that logic look around your universe it seems pretty damn void of life but our own and it certainly doesn't look like god is out there somewhere. so this means this is the natural state because I can prove it with my science. I look straight in any direction and I see no curve to the planet. therefore newton is full of shit and his supernatural science is garbage. do you see now Sean how that only hurts your own arguments not helps??? do you see how the wise man would instead simply say that all nature super or not is nature the "super" is simply the unknown aspects of a very real natural reality. just like earth is very much so round

In general the notion of supernatural it's pure stupidity. Because actually if something exist and has some characteristics/properties it's already natural. The analogy with flat earth incorrect in this context. The notion of supernatural created by biological people who selection of monkeys. Consciousness of primates full of biological problems. People want to believe in supernatural. But the notion actually has no any sense.

I agree that the discussion should be about what super natural means and includes. Naturalism can be the same as physicalism or it can also include the immaterial. Even Daniel Dennett told Keith Ward that you cannot have a world view that does not account for information, this is why Daniel considers himself a naturalist because there is more than just matter, there is information/meaning. The difference is that some put this in the religious or super natural because it is not physical. Meaning and information do not have simple location and are not reducible to atoms. But are beliefs, goals, values super natural? I would say no but they sure as hell aren't physical. So both sides tend to miss this point.

4:38 If nobody can explain how the natural world, or anything for that matter came into existence from nothing then I will ALWAYS see that as more than enough evidence for GOD.

just because something cannot come out of nothing, it doesn't necessarily mean the cause for something would be a supernatural thing you made a claim that there's a supernatural thing caused something, then you bring me verifiable evidences for the existence of supernatural things around us you have 0 evidence for even the existence of Lesser supernatural beings i . E the Angels, the demons

Yeah Sean then define Dark Energy as something other than an immeasurable force. Until it is defined as an actual thing and not a thing that can't be observed or described, then I will assume it is simply God that keeps our universe from flying apart. The Bible describes the birth of the universe in its opening words. Science will one day prove the existence of God and creation. That is why the JWST looks as far as it can and sees more galaxies that shouldn't be that well formed yet. Because the universe was created the way it is. All we can do as scientists is observe.

He believes in the non existents of God. He has to believe because he can’t prove the contrary. There are to many things that are a mystery to be able to do that. As knowledge grows so does the mystery.. Not knowing can make you a believer.
