Athiesm is one of the most self refuting and illogical worldviews out there.

Have you come to the Realization that Christ is the Life of Your Being, and not something in a man 2,000 years ago?? Through the false sense of the belief we are human mortal being, the purpose is to lie about the immortal omnipresence of God.... This false belief in a human mortal existence separate and apart from the Infinite Spirit of God Conscioisness that you truly are is what is meant to be OVERCOME..... We must Remove the False Mortal Image of a mortal ME separate and apart from God.... Every communication Unfolding from God within is to encourage the Spirit/Soul die to the False Sense of Mortal Self, as the Purpose of the Soul is to take Dominion over our only Adversary, the World Mind and it's thoughts tempting us to believe mortality/form/decay is reality.... Where everything mortal appears to be, Only the Infinite, Omnipresent Spirit of God is... I and the Father are One!! Once able to accept this mortal Experience is for the Immortal Soul and not the mortal sense of self, one ultimately comes to the Virginal Realization that the Spirit of God is the Only Life, and that I am the Infinte Spirit of God, as Jesus, John, Paul, Moses, Elijah, Buddha, Krishna, Lao Tzu, Shankara, Meister Eckhart, Madam Guyon, Fenelon, and many more have done....

@@aaronbenavides1169 You believe in magic. You have been brainwashed a million times without realizing it. Do you know what the true purpose of the church is? It's not to save your soul. Souls don't exist. They are magical body parts that don't correspond to reality. Many people in the world are under the delusion that souls exist, without ever investigating it to see if they're being misled or not. The purpose of the church is to scam people out of their wealth. They demand 10% of your income as a tithe, and more if they really don't care about hurting people. Kenneth Copeland was a charlatan long before he became a scam pastor. He's worth $800 million, owns several private jets, lives in a mansion, and doesn't pay a penny in taxes, because it's a church write-off. He makes money by lying to your grandmother and convincing her to fork over her limited income, such as a social security check. Every pastor or priest or imam or rabbi is some version of that. If they lie for money, they are frauds. If they do it under the false authority of cultural myths, the government gives them the right to swindle anyone they want for any amount, and never have to pay a tax on it. The founders' lack of foresight has ruined this country.

To return to your own position, if someone believes in God it's preconception. Yet there are historic and scientifically investigated facts which we believers study before making up our minds. There is also written tradition: most of what we accept in our belief system relies on generations and generations of witnesses, credible ones at that. When you on the other hand decide to believe Dickie Dawkie on life coming out of "rock and sand", not only do you accept a preposterous idea, but also a very illogical one: we all know from observation that there is no tendency for stuff to come out of chaos and start evolving towards complex order. Yes, snow crystals do that, but they are not living matter. Everything degenerates in nature, nothing starts organizing spontaneously. Ever. So logic dictates that we look for causality, not far-fetched pseudo-plausibility.

How could anyone not love John Lennox?? What a brilliant and honest man.

Brilliant mind, thanks John Lennox

"The fact that I can do maths proves there is a god... it's the only thing that makes sense" He then gives other examples to make the point that because something is complex, there must be a god. And that is his response to the god of the gaps argument. Its staggering how bereft of reasoning his arguments are.

The ironic part is that he is considered to be one of the most brilliant Christian intellectuals. No wonder that people are deconverting in droves when these vacuous arguments count as the best that Christianity has to offer.😂

Ah, but is he being bereft of reasoning, or is it in fact "Christian Reasoning" layered on top of "Christian Faith"! ... to give THE IMPRESSION of great reasoning.

With all the resources the scientists have at the moment...it's high time they created life in the lab...to prove once and for all primary abiogenesis. Untill then atheism requires the greatest faith...😂

@@anj4727 Fortunately Evolution is already a proven scientific fact. And almost no one actually tries to create life in a lab the way Abiogenesis requires it to happen. Also… Abiogenesis is currently the only proposed hypothesis for how life originated with no valid alternatives. And no… made up gods or magic aren’t valid alternatives.😂

@ramigilneas9274 you conflated evolution and origin of life; they aren’t the same thing.

I'm not a flat-earther, but I think one of the main reasons for the idea is a lack of trust in the authorities.. governments, universities, media, etc. I now have a deep distrust in all human authorities. Thank you Jesus for your word, which is my anchor.

Samuel, thank you very much to you and Prof. Lennox. I think that the quality and quantity of objections and questions demonstrate the beauty, the truth and the goodness of this dialogue. I'd like to quote a Saint ( because sanctity or flourishing of life is the end of life, and science and even of technology!) "What kind of happiness does man seek? He desires a happiness that is limitless in everything. Such happiness is only found in God. " (Maximilian Kolbe)

This is and was so good, thank you My brother Lennox, as a 7th day Adventist Church i learned so much, thank you

Wow this just came up on my feed so out of curiosity I listened to it… and being a science teacher I really appreciated the careful breakdown and logic applied… how can anyone not be convinced… ❤

The problem is we humans, COLLECTIVELY AND INDIVIDUALUALLY, see ourselves as central to ALL✌️😁 meaning...

Anyone made a list of the books recommended

Science is simply the understanding of the physical law by which God regulates and maintains his creation.

If you start with the conclusion of God existing, then yes. But if you don't make that unnecessary assumption than you can shorten that sentence to: "Science is simply the understanding of the physical."

I’m still waiting for mr Dawkins to explain me how come that the oldest bee or a mosquito found in an amber is 130 million years old, looks the same as current mosquito and the oldest mammal is 200 million years old and from that single mammal size of a rat developed 6400 mammal subspecies and a mosquito and a bee are still mosquito and a bee.😮.

"oldest bee or a mosquito found in an amber is 130 million years old, looks the same as current mosquito " Dawkins doesn't need to explain that...I can. It's because one genepool (of mosquito or bee) never evolved so it looks the same. If no mutations end up changing the basic shape of mosquitos...they stay the same. It doesn't mean other gene pools that got separated didn't evolve. And the 'rat sized mammal' evolved into those different species...that's how it happened...ie through random gene mutations and gene pools becoming separated so one gene pool adapts one way and another evolves differently until they are so distinct that taxonomists name them different species. Consider. 2 to the 13th power is over 6400. That means 2 only has to be multiplied by itself 13 times. So...if one species divides and then those two evolve every, say, million years, in 14 million years, you'd have more than 6400 species. If it took 10 million years, then in one hundred and forty million years, you'd have that number of different species. And the current thinking is mammals...ie this little rat sized critter appeared 225 million years ago...so more than enough time if it happened every 10 million years. Now...could it happen? I don't know...but if God created life so it could evolve, then why not? Is God unable to...does he not have the wit to create life so it evolves?

You make this statement wanting to see change, yet when we show you multiple transitional fossils of humans you will claim they are not real, or some other species entirely...

Another great talk with Dr. John Lennox.

Praised God & Thank you prof. John, Lennox , ive been discoverd your teaching in Christian Faith its so❤❤❤ brilliant.
