*An Overview of the Fine tuning argument* For many, the regularity of the universe and the precision with which the universe exploded into being provides even more evidences for the existence of God. This evidence technically known as the Teleological argument, derives its name from the Greek word telos, which means "design." The Teleological argument goes like this: 1. Every design has a designer 2. The universe has high- complex design 3. Therefore, the universe has a designer *The Anthropic Principle* Scientists are finding the universe is like that watch ( anology of William Paley ), except even more precisely designed. These highly-precise and interdependent environmental conditions (called "anthropic constants") make up what is known as the "Anthropic Principle"-- a title for the mounting evidence that has many scientists believing the universe is extremely fine tuned (designed) to support human life on earth (Thats why some notorious atheists including Antony Flew later believed in God). Some Anthropic constants example include: Oxygen level • On earth, oxygen comprises 21 percent of the atmosphere • That precise figure is an Anthropic constant that make life in earth possible. • If oxygen were 25 percent fire would erept spontaneously • If it were 15 percent, human beings would suffocate Carbon dioxide level • If the carbon dioxide level was higher than it is now, a runaway greenhouse effect would develop, and we would all burnt up • If the level was lower than it is now, plants would not be able to maintain efficient photosynthesis, and we would all suffocate For more evidence: reasons.org/explore/blogs/tag/fine-tuning/page/2 reasons.org/explore/publications/articles/rtb-design-compendium-2009 *What are the chances?* It's not there just a few broadly defined constants that may have resulted by chance. There are more than 100 very narrowly defined constants that strongly point to an Intelligent Designer. Astrophysicist, Hugh Ross, calculated the probability these and other constants would exist for any planet in the universe by chance (i.e, without divine design). To meet all conditions, there is 1 chance in 10^1038 (one chance in one with 1038 zeroes after it)-- essentially 0% chance. According to probability theory, odds of less than 1 in 10^50 equals " zero probability" . Check:reasons.org/explore/publications/articles/probability-for-life-on-earth It only proves that atheism is just a dogmatic belief. Nearly 2000 years ago, the apostle St Paul wrote in his letter to the Romans, *_" For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse"_* _Important: The term “entropy” describes degree of thermodynamic “disorder” in a closed system like the universe. “Maximum entropy” would describe the “heat death” of the universe (which is the state it is slowly gravitating towards). Amazingly, our universe was at its “minimum entropy” at the very beginning, which begs the question “how did it get so orderly?” Looking just at the initial entropy conditions, what is the likelihood of a universe supportive of life coming into existence by coincidence? One in billions of billions? Or trillions of trillions of trillions? Or more?_ _Sir Roger Penrose, 2020 Nobel prize winner and a close friend of Stephen Hawking, wondered about this question and tried to calculate the probability of the initial entropy conditions of the Big Bang_ _According to Penrose, the odds against such an occurrence were on the order of 10 to the power of 10^123 to 1_ _It is hard even to imagine what this number means. In math, the value 10^123 means 1 followed by 123 zeros. (This is, by the way, more than the total number of atoms [10^79] believed to exist in the whole universe.) But Penrose's answer is vastly more than this: It requires 1 followed by 10^10^123 zeros_ _It’s important to recognize that we're not talking about a single unlikely event here. We’re talking about hitting the jackpot over and over again, nailing extremely unlikely, mutually complementary parameters of constants and quantities, far past the point where chance could account for it_

God is OUTSIDE the universe. The universe is HIS creation. Until He had the idea, the universe did not exist. It was formless and void until He spoke a sound, a vibration, and set into motion all that came afterward. If He imagined a boundless universe, then it is boundless. An infinite within and infinitely greater infinite. And being eternal, then when would the universe have begun on His "time scale" since He is outside of time? We are made in His image . . . we are an idea, His idea, and being in His image, we are then also eternal. We existed before we were born. We will exist after our "time" in this temporal illusion. His Kingdom is not of this world. It is not of the temporal, but of the eternal.

Love this guy. His humility is quite comforting.

The term "Big Bang" wasn't coined by those who believe the universe had a beginning. It was first used by Fred Hoyle, who believed in the so-called "steady state" universe. He used the term in 1949, saying it was not used in a perjorative sense, although it does seem a bit perjorative on the face of it. In any case, the originators of the theory did not call it an explosion, and they didn't say there was an actual bang.

Wisdom.

So logical. Thank you for sharing and thank you to John Lennox for his logical reasoning. Of course there is a God. Romans 1:20-21 say it very directly: For his invisible qualities are clearly seen from the world’s creation onward, because they are perceived by the things made, even his eternal power and Godship, so that they are inexcusable. 21 For although they knew God, they did not glorify him as God nor did they thank him, but they became empty-headed in their reasonings and their senseless hearts became darkened.

Thank you, professor Lennox, for all the blessing clarities you've made in debates with the atheists with regard to the existence of God. I really enjoy listening to you. I may be a poor student of one of your students, I'm almost 70 years old now, but still I do not see a value in any of such debates. I mean obviously any attempt to convince the atheists to have faith in God the Creator would seemingly be impossible and perhaps such a debate would likely push them further away. I wonder if the spirit of Satan is behind each and everyone of those atheists starting from Charles Darwin. I need to write "this point" again and again. The atheists are obsessed with finding "evidences" when searching for the existence of God the Creator of all things. And I wholeheartedly agree with their rational obsession. For the time being, however, I see no possible way, or argument, to convince any of them of God's existence. I see that they'd go very deep in their atheistic explanation in any of the debate, and I hardly understand their profound findings. So profound that at some point I see instead that it is quite shallow. For example they see all the intelligent designs in all things all around but that still don't convince them. In the Bible God said any of His spoken words cannot and will not return to Him void. During the creation of this earth He said "let there be light" and in a second, seemingly, the huge bright sun appeared in the sky. What else did God say that we must heed? His spoken words said this; Christ will return to earth in due time that at those glorious moments "all eyes" will witness His glory. And voila! All atheists eyes will witness the shocking moments and they will immediately and fearfully feel shame. He further said many will run to the mountains and shout to the rocks to fall upon them so that they can be hidden from God's Mighty Face. They cannot bear the immense fear in their hearts at those moments. His spoken words will definitely come to pass. This message should be an eye opener to all atheists out there. This is God's unbroken promise among all other promises. One of His promises to mankind, some 2 thousand years ago, was that He will gather the Jews from all corners of the earth back to their homeland. Israel was erased from the world map for more than 2 thousand years. And now we witness this truth and the Jews are back in their homeland with wonderous and blessed strength in self defense. This message is intended chiefly for all the atheists out there. Hell and Heaven are two different worlds. God bless you professor Lennox and family and God bless all who read and heed the warnings of His Second Coming. ...

Thank you for the video. God created the universe and saw it was good. He set laws for it to sustain efficiently. Nature and the animal kingdom obeys it but some men too prideful, has in general refused to acknowledge Him and His majestic creation, has created a mess and now finding ways trying to diminish His existence and explaining things that are so complicated that sometimes make no sense! The way forward is good stewardship towards what God has given us in His creation. Make sure we discover the science and engineering behind to put our stewardship to good use and according to what God has intended it to be! May God be the glory!

John Lennox has a sharp mind & his book Gunning for God (Why the new Atheists are missing the target) is a brilliant analysis of the weaknesses of their arguements & worlview . I still have questions however about his book 7 Days that divide the World which attempts to reconcile evolutionary ideas with the idea of a long-aged earth. His arguments for this & his attempts to reconcile the Genisis account with a frame work idea rather than a consecutive timeline of events 9(i..e 7 24 hr days) seem quite contrived to make it fit. Also he does not discuss the notion that the universe rather than be created by a Creator, has always existed either as matter or energy & is constantly changing over time from one form to another.

I haven't yet read his book, but it is on my very long list of things to read. However, I am slightly put off by your comment "is a brilliant analysis of the weaknesses of their arguments & worldview .". If this is what the book is about, then it must surely be an analysis of a strawman. But it also points to the fact that he simply does not know what an atheist is. An atheist is simply a person who doesn't have a god in their lives because they see no robust evidence for the existence of any god. That's it. Pure and simple. And most atheists have no interest at all in "Gunning for God". Of course they "Miss the target". To an atheist there is no target to aim for.Beyond that any atheists can have hugely different views about any number of topics. Many don't even have any interest in origins of the universe, evolution, or anything scientific at all. Many other atheists are devout followers of other religions and world/spiritual views such as Buddhism, Jainism Shinto, Paganism, wiccan Hinduism and many beliefs of the varied indigenous native cultures around the world . Does John cover these as well in his analysis? I cannot see how he could possibly do this in a mere 250 pages. For a book this short, he must be aiming at perceived arguments & worldview that almost no atheist has. Hence the strawman comment above,

Krauss's idea that non-existent gravity created gravity which in turn created the matter which created gravity which then went on to create the billions of galaxies is absurd? If it wasn't for such a large percentage of researchers who give their own atheistic beliefs much , much more merit then it deserves , people like Krauss and many others would be critically critiqued right out of a job.

There is a Big problem with the Big bang: *The origin of matter!* Mass of universe = 1e80 protons = 1.67e53 Kg Escape velocity = v = √(2GM/r) therefore r = 2GM/v2 Substitute M = 1.67e53 and v = 3e8 m/sec (speed of light) The minimum diameter of the universe below which it will collapse into a black hole is 52.5 billion light years Hence the matter in the universe could not be created in the early hot stage when the universe was small! Also Running the universe back in time is not the same for energy and matter as assumed in all these models! Think of a candle burning (like star we see today) the ENERGY goes back to a very small point BUT the MATTER does not! It gets bigger until it reaches a maximum mass and then STOPS. Stars must by the second law do the same they can only go back to the point of maximum hydrogen and that is their minimum entropy state! That means the real Big Bang was first an expansion of space and energy with no mass then the creation of stars in their lowest entropy state or maximum hydrogen fuel state. Which actually matches what the bible says God did in the opening chapter of Genesis! Day 1 God said "let there be light" expansion of space and photon energy giving us the very smooth CMBR Day 4 God said "he made the stars also" after the expansion by collapsing the wave energy into atoms of hydrogen Since we know from Young's experiment a particle's history is written retrospectively back from the moment of measurement by the *MIND* that measured the wave so there is no problem with this occurring 6000 years ago. The history of the stars observed by Adam is real on the day they were made even though he was looking back billions of years it was instantly there for him to see.

Just imagine having this man as a friend.

Exactly, where does that gravitational law come from?

I would correct him on the fine tuning of the universe while for life, is foremost just to allow stars and atoms to exist....then you can talk about atomic properties like water and carbon that allow life to exist. then impossibility of life existing from chance.

Well done.

I am so happy that you have come to the same conclusion as I have about nothing, since I was a child I have never understood this absolutely absurd argument that so called intellectuals make.

Is there anything that proves the start of the universe needed a creator? What evidence is there that it isn't a non-intentional natural process?

When I was in primary school in the 70s, matter is defined as "anything that has mass and cannot be destroyed nor created".

Only just discovered this wonderful man, very intelligent but humble at the same time. Little me, who is nowhere near this man's brain, has been thinking from the time that I could really think that something doesn't come from nothing despite all the scientific spill. Guess that's God giving to all who love Him including brilliant John and little me.

The question is not only "why is there something?" but also if not more so "why is there a rational something?"

About ten years ago the BBC science series "Horizon" conducted an experiment using the microwave background radiation to see whether the universe is unbounded or bounded. The result inferred an infinite universe unbounded in the three dimensions of space and one of time. It didn't begin and has no edge. Lennox may be wrong. "Many things beyond our knowledge ". An eminent scientist once said the Universe isn't as strange as we can imagine but it is far stranger. That we can't understand a cosmos without a beginning is neither here nor there.

What a brilliant man, may God continue to bless the words of his mouth!! Very good video!

God spoke the universe into existence and His voice reverberates even down to the strings.

I've got moths in my house and weeds in my garden. God is keeping me busy !

One of my favourite passages! God wanted to see what man would call the animals. Beautiful! “And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.“ Genesis 2:19

I agree with all he said.

The proper definition of nothing: "What rocks dream about"

The proper definition of "rocks" - What exists in atheists' heads.

Yeah and atheists try their best to define nothing...

Thank you Mr. Lennox. God bless.

To any scientist out there reading this, I have a theory on how our solar system was formed and its like nothing ever discussed before, if proven to be correct it will throw everything we have ever thought we know about our universe into overdrive.

You should write it up and deliver it to a good collection of scientists.

There is a big problem that we all share. First, of course, is sin, but set that aside. Second, is that the human mind, being in a physical world, can not actually imagine "nothing". We can try, but we always fail. We might think of an eternity of darkness. But that is still something. When our finite mind can not grasp something we turn to other things. It is easier to speculate about a self creating universe that began with gravity (?) than an eternal intelligence that just is. I am that I am.

For the algorithm

Well someone back then knew the universe moved (God, of course, since He inspired the scriptures, but the people who read Job knew what God wanted them to know about the movement of the universe) because of what it says in Job about the constellations. There was also something about Orion's belt being "loosened" or something like that, that scientists have just discovered in the last century. From earth that's what it looks like, but I can't recall the name of the phenomenon. It wasn't until the later Greek culture and the later centuries after that, that stopped the earth, made the earth the center, made the universe eternal, and made the earth flat. People were a lot smarter before that time.

I am with you Prof John Lennox. It is stupidity say something is product of nothing, whoever says it..

John Lennox is just fantastic. He’s sharp, on-point and even cheerful too. Such an inspiration.

Lennox, so the universe is fine tuned is it? Does that include, earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, volcanos, radiation, cosmic rays, solar flares, asteroid strikes? Please do tell?

Listen to Richard Carrier

Excellent

Today the view of Aristoteles seems more realistic. There is no beginning and no end. The quantum-fluctuations at the beginning of the big bang show that there is not such thing like a "nothing". There is no way to define a beginning or an end of those quantum fluctuations that caused the expansion of our universe. So eternity seems the most realistic option to think about our universe.

The father of the Big Bang theory, is Georges Lemaître, who is also a Catholic priest. For anyone who does not know this fact.
