I watched this video in 2011 for the first time. Since then I've watched it at least two times a year. I never get tired of it. It was also the gateway to find hundreds of other lectures on this and other scientific topics, including the lectures of Richard Dawkins, of course. I've also watched lots of debates between religion and science, with participants like Lawrence Krauss, Richard Dawkins et.al. not to forget the brilliant Christopher Hitchens, of course! May he rest in peace; even though I believe his former, still active, opponents rest in an even greater peace. I've even had the patience to listen to the debates vs the tedious theist, William Lane Craig, with his monotone, slightly annoying voice. Without his fallacious arguments, and often pure lies, he wouldn't have anything to say. So in a way I forgive the theists for that. Without those arguments, even though empty, there wouldn't be any of those debates, where you could watch and hear them embarrass themselves ... /Kjell Adrian from Sweden

This IS science fiction, dingbat. Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it.

@@2fast2block Did you even watch the video? Krauss does a pretty good job explaining how the universe can form without breaking any laws in physics. Virtual particles, as Krauss already explained, can be observed to form without consuming any pre existing energy or matter. And in a flat universe no positive energy is required. On a quantum scale the universe behaves very differently from the universe on a human scale. The universe began as a point of infinite density. In such an environment our common sense understanding physics breaks down. If your not curious at all and just want to presuppose God why are you even watching this.

Not just that, it shows from the start who gave up their logic and who did not. From all we know, creation HAD to be a supernatural event. The first logical and honest step is to admit that. The second step is to seek who or what did the supernatural event and the proof for that. Fools jump to 'who created god', 'god of the gaps', 'science does not deal with supernatural' and whatever excuse they can use to prevent them from seeing the truth. All they can do is fart smoke screens to avoid the issue at hand. Those that deny it was a supernatural event, such a Krauss, Dawkins and a whole host of other fools, live in their fairytale of just making things up with nothing to back them. They say things so outrageous that they ask you to give up your common sense for science. Krauss and Dawkins go back and forth calling it "literally nothing" knowing it is something, and even their something can't produce what we have. kzbin.info/www/bejne/i4WWlZmGhMl0j7c Krauss admits he does not give a damn what nothing means and he then says he wants to be honest with his readers. He is full of doublespeak. He is WRONG and all he has is pride to continue saying such stupid things. www.nytimes.com/2012/03/25/books/review/a-universe-from-nothing-by-lawrence-m-krauss.html?_r=1 "One unsolved mystery is why there is an excess of mater in our universe; this is the Matter/antimatter problem. Why is the universe only made of matter? Matter/antimatter particles annihilate each other to produce radiation. Radiation coverts to equal amounts of matter and anti matter. Krauss says that the CMB suggests the photon-to-proton ratio was a billion to one. He says that by ‘plausible quantum processes’ the universe started out with 1 part per billion more matter than antimatter. Most of the matter and antimatter combined to make photons. Later he admits we still don’t really know how this asymmetry between matter and antimatter began." "The energy calculated for empty space assuming virtual particles is 10 to the 120 times greater than that observed. This is a long-standing unsolved problem." "Krauss also says that this proves you can get something from nothing given the energetics of empty space and the law of gravity. So he says you can get a universe from nothing if you can start with empty space with non-zero energy and the laws of gravity and quantum mechanics. He admits empty space with non-zero energy is something!" Quotes from another review of Krauss' book here: creation.com/review-krauss-universe-from-nothing You can read Hawking, Krauss, Dawkins, and others who praise their gravity but they just made it up and have no idea where it could have come from.

[@JollyJoel]

If you have fluctuation of the number 0 it will create a number but it would need to be a symmetry to still equal 0. So if you got a 3 from 0, then there would need to be a minus -3. So if the universe was only a 3 and a -3, the universe would still equal 0 but have enough physics to create galaxies. They are symmetrically separated by space and time and the more space and time that exist the more something is created from nothing which is why our universe is expanding exponentially more and more. That is the best way I can explain.

[@thelordflashheart2292]

But is this "fluctuation" you speak of inherent in 0, or is it an additional factor? If the "fluctuation" is inherent in 0, and 0 means nothing, how can nothing have inherent qualities? If it is something additional to 0, how can one say that there was "nothing" to begin with, if there was some force which initiates or operates as a fluctuation? Thanks.

[@pmcmartin1252]

Einstein discovered that the attraction between objects like planets and stars occurs because their mass curves the fabric of space and time. Key word “fabric”. Quantum mechanics has further shown that what we thought was empty space (fabric) isn’t empty, it has dark matter and dark energy. That fabric jitters and sub atomic particles appear and disappear all the time. Physicists are concluding it is possible for a universe to come into being seemingly from nothing. What I don’t understand is, the “nothing” within this universe isn’t really nothing, it’s the fabric of our space-time. And that isn’t “nothing” in an absolute sense - as in absolute zero, nothing, the absence of something. Seems all we really know is that within the boundaries of our universe, there really isn't "nothing". And It also seems we still don’t understand how it’s possible to get something from nothing?

Krauss, "The universe is huge and old and rare things happen all the time, including life." Just past 18:00 here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXrQp5-JbbV_f9E That's not based on science but only Krauss farting that out of his dumb ass. kzbin.info/www/bejne/sIaafaqtYth1hsk kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGXWgWR7Zq-Xlbs kzbin.info/www/bejne/j57NnaWta6yggbc kzbin.info/www/bejne/gmGQmZqJn9Oio6M kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3K7nKWZZ7SGqZY Life takes information to proceed on. But to atheists/agnostics, chaos through time gave us information. Although it's even hard to write such a ridiculous statement, they believe it. All one can do is laugh at such stupidity. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l3KQd5akgdh5Z8k kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZScgZSQr9ike8k creation.com/laws-of-information-1 creation.com/laws-of-information-2 To this dumbass, it's ok to say that space, matter, time, and the laws of physics, ALL being there ALREADY with NO explanation of how, is OK to call "nothing". There, by that alone, Krauss excused himself of all of that. You simply come up with a childish snot-nosed brat excuse to call it "nothing". But it gets worse, space, matter, time, and the laws of physics, called nothing, created more space, matter, and time. The laws of physics were broken to create more space, matter, and time. Keep in mind (for those that have a working mind), that this "nothing" was eternal, and just by chance about 13 billion years ago according to Krauss, then did its magic. The 1st and 2nd laws of thermodynamics were asleep then. *Krauss' attempt to dispell the need of God, just confirms the need.* "A vacuum, to us, is a space with no matter in it. As a practical matter though, it's really a space with very little matter in it. You might already know that it's REALLY hard to get all the matter out of any space" from: education.jlab.org/qa/vacuum_02.html "Relativistic-quantum-field-theoretical vacuum states - no less than giraffes or refrigerators or solar systems - are particular arrangements of elementary physical stuff."- from: www.nytimes.com/2012/03/25/books/review/a-universe-from-nothing-by-lawrence-m-krauss.html?_r=0 "That makes Matter = Energy; Energy = Space; Space = Time. Therefore matter, energy, space and time are all interchangeable characteristics, which implies strongly that they are all forms of one thing." from: medium.com/@alasdairf/are-matter-energy-time-space-all-interchangeable-e2dbf7d411e5 And this "nothing" from chaos gave us the fine-tuning. www.inplainsite.org/html/anthropic_principles.html kgov.com/fine-tuning-of-the-universe I like starting from the beginning because it shows how we got something to begin with. Not just that, it shows from the start who gave up their logic and who did not. From all we know, creation HAD to be a supernatural event. The first logical and honest step is to admit that. The second step is to seek who or what did the supernatural event and the proof for that. Fools jump to 'who created god', 'god of the gaps', 'science does not deal with supernatural' and whatever excuse they can use to prevent them from seeing the truth. All they can do is fart smoke screens to avoid the issue at hand. Those that deny it was a supernatural event, such a Krauss, Dawkins and a whole host of other fools, live in their fairytale of just making things up with nothing to back them. They say things so outrageous that they ask you to give up your common sense for science. Krauss and Dawkins go back and forth calling it "literally nothing" knowing it is something, and even their something can't produce what we have. kzbin.info/www/bejne/i4WWlZmGhMl0j7c Krauss admits he does not give a damn what nothing means and he then says he wants to be honest with his readers. He is full of doublespeak. He is WRONG and all he has is pride to continue saying such stupid things. www.nytimes.com/2012/03/25/books/review/a-universe-from-nothing-by-lawrence-m-krauss.html?_r=1 "One unsolved mystery is why there is an excess of mater in our universe; this is the Matter/antimatter problem. Why is the universe only made of matter? Matter/antimatter particles annihilate each other to produce radiation. Radiation coverts to equal amounts of matter and anti matter. Krauss says that the CMB suggests the photon-to-proton ratio was a billion to one. He says that by ‘plausible quantum processes’ the universe started out with 1 part per billion more matter than antimatter. Most of the matter and antimatter combined to make photons. Later he admits we still don’t really know how this asymmetry between matter and antimatter began." "The energy calculated for empty space assuming virtual particles is 10 to the 120 times greater than that observed. This is a long-standing unsolved problem." "Krauss also says that this proves you can get something from nothing given the energetics of empty space and the law of gravity. So he says you can get a universe from nothing if you can start with empty space with non-zero energy and the laws of gravity and quantum mechanics. He admits empty space with non-zero energy is something!" Quotes from another review of Krauss' book here: creation.com/review-krauss-universe-from-nothing You can read Hawking, Krauss, Dawkins, and others who praise their gravity but they just made it up and have no idea where it could have come from. And the list goes on. All they have comes down to nothing. From the start, fools gave up their logic and that does not bother them. When it does not bother someone from the start, they continue giving up their logic with what follows.

+Marius “Mani” Nilsen Everything in the universe occurs according to the laws of physics. For example, the gravitational pull between atoms in a dust cloud create enough heat to start fusion; the pressure created by fusion pushes back against gravity to create a stable star. If we look at the rest of the universe; galaxies, black holes etc we see that they too are organized by the physical laws. If we look everywhere on earth the same statement holds as well.... With that said, it is my understanding that Christianity is based on the concept that God gave the physical laws that uphold all things; he created this universe by giving specific laws so that the universe organized itself a particular way(for discovery); hence why it is called intelligent design... Everything that science has discovered would thus support ID in every detail... With this thinking, understanding that all of science is based on the physical laws, we can conclude that the limitations of science are only being able to discover that which supports this ID.

On Nothing. True to imagine nothing is either impossible or you're fooling yourself. The concept of nothing is simply a play on words at this point. Outside of gravity, outside of space, or outside of time still put you at some "thing", they are plays on words. At this point in time, only a ridiculous god could produce a space of nothing, and that would be nothing to consider and nothing that exists. It would be nothing short of miraculous and mean absolutely nothing to us at all. Time and space are only concepts of measure, and we can measure either, and we can add either, but when we subtract either we end up with more. Infinity is a conceptual fact, there is no end without a start, and vice versa. You would have to agree that "the concept" of "the concept of nothing" is still only a concept, to which concepts only exist in our minds and are not a reality. Gr8! Peace ☮💜

It depends on what you mean by special. We're not special in any philosophical, religious or metaphysical sense. But you can view life as everything is a miracle or that nothing is a miracle.

@@2fast2block Nobody knows this with any justification or evidence, and certainly not theists. There is no evidence that G-d exists, let along that G-d created anything. You can more easily - and more probably - just say the universe created itself. At least there is evidence here of existence, though of course not of any role as prime mover. Not that the real question of first cause can really be answered anyway. It's a cliche that absence of evidence is not evidence of absence, but there are actually many times when this is not necessarily true. In the case of G-d, you might think there would be at least some evidence, but there isn't any at all. Hard to accept maybe, but facts are facts. Meanwhile, great mysteries remain, at least for those with enough courage to face them. I actually am a theist btw, but these atheists have the advantage of being just about the only actually smart, educated, and most importantly honest people discussing these matters.

[@2fast2block]

@@adreaminxy blah, blah, then, "and more probably - just say the universe created itself." That is impossible and you gave NO evidence how that can be. You just listened to dingbat Krauss and you can't explain a natural creation. "In the case of G-d, you might think there would be at least some evidence, but there isn't any at all." Punk, let me teach you some basic science since it is clear you don't know it. Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it. We KNOW those laws, punk. Now, stop being a wuss pretending we don't know and get around those laws. It should be easy for you since you have on your side, "these atheists have the advantage of being just about the only actually smart, educated, and most importantly honest people discussing these matters." Again, wimp, do tell how creation happened naturally and include evidence. How many times will you reply and not give evidence? You must love being the clown you've always been.

[@adreaminxy]

@@2fast2block You are very sure of your own self for someone who is only parroting a couple of talking points that are, whether you can recognize it or not, rather pitiful non sequiturs. All you have there is wishful thinking and assertions without evidence. Again, it is on the surface more probable that the universe created itself since there is absolutely no evidence of G-d or anything supernatural. But I'm not the one claiming to know something that nobody does. That's you, apparently. Speaking of wimps, who here is desperate for a celestial daddy figure to ease the fear and uncertainty of living in what is by all appearances - at least according to all the actual evidence - an indifferent universe? You are of course free to believe whatever you want, as I do, but you have no actual evidence, no matter what your limited education has led you to imagine about the laws of thermodynamics which are of course only known insofar as they have been empirically verified.

[@2fast2block]

@@adreaminxy "All you have there is wishful thinking and assertions without evidence." Says the clown who can't get around what science I gave.

Clown, we know those laws and lying and being a wimp does not make them go away. "but you have no actual evidence, no matter what your limited education has led you to imagine about the laws of thermodynamics which are of course only known insofar as they have been empirically verified." Is there a reason you want to go on living being the waste of life and resources you are? We know that science and you can't get around them, bozo.

From last few minutes of the talk, it raises a question - we are saying how future beings will be ignorant of things like Cosmic background or expanding universe which is crucial for explaining the mechanics of the universe. The same logic can be applied to us that some important piece of information/evidence exists no more today and we are framing the theory/story based on available data that may or may not be totally true/real.

Krauss and Dawkins are fools. Krauss, "The universe is huge and old and rare things happen all the time, including life." Just past 18:00 here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXrQp5-JbbV_f9E That's not based on science but only Krauss farting that out of his dumb ass. kzbin.info/www/bejne/sIaafaqtYth1hsk kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGXWgWR7Zq-Xlbs kzbin.info/www/bejne/j57NnaWta6yggbc kzbin.info/www/bejne/gmGQmZqJn9Oio6M kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3K7nKWZZ7SGqZY Life takes information to proceed on. But to atheists/agnostics, chaos through time gave us information. Although it's even hard to write such a ridiculous statement, they believe it. All one can do is laugh at such stupidity. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l3KQd5akgdh5Z8k kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZScgZSQr9ike8k creation.com/laws-of-information-1 creation.com/laws-of-information-2 To this dumbass, it's ok to say that space, matter, time, and the laws of physics, ALL being there ALREADY with NO explanation of how, is OK to call "nothing". There, by that alone, Krauss excused himself of all of that. You simply come up with a childish snot-nosed brat excuse to call it "nothing". But it gets worse, space, matter, time, and the laws of physics, called nothing, created more space, matter, and time. The laws of physics were broken to create more space, matter, and time. Keep in mind (for those that have a working mind), that this "nothing" was eternal, and just by chance about 13 billion years ago according to Krauss, then did its magic. The 1st and 2nd laws of thermodynamics were asleep then. *Krauss' attempt to dispell the need of God, just confirms the need.* "A vacuum, to us, is a space with no matter in it. As a practical matter though, it's really a space with very little matter in it. You might already know that it's REALLY hard to get all the matter out of any space" from: education.jlab.org/qa/vacuum_02.html "Relativistic-quantum-field-theoretical vacuum states - no less than giraffes or refrigerators or solar systems - are particular arrangements of elementary physical stuff."- from: www.nytimes.com/2012/03/25/books/review/a-universe-from-nothing-by-lawrence-m-krauss.html?_r=0 "That makes Matter = Energy; Energy = Space; Space = Time. Therefore matter, energy, space and time are all interchangeable characteristics, which implies strongly that they are all forms of one thing." from: medium.com/@alasdairf/are-matter-energy-time-space-all-interchangeable-e2dbf7d411e5 And this "nothing" from chaos gave us the fine-tuning. www.inplainsite.org/html/anthropic_principles.html kgov.com/fine-tuning-of-the-universe I like starting from the beginning because it shows how we got something to begin with. Not just that, it shows from the start who gave up their logic and who did not. From all we know, creation HAD to be a supernatural event. The first logical and honest step is to admit that. The second step is to seek who or what did the supernatural event and the proof for that. Fools jump to 'who created god', 'god of the gaps', 'science does not deal with supernatural' and whatever excuse they can use to prevent them from seeing the truth. All they can do is fart smoke screens to avoid the issue at hand. Those that deny it was a supernatural event, such a Krauss, Dawkins and a whole host of other fools, live in their fairytale of just making things up with nothing to back them. They say things so outrageous that they ask you to give up your common sense for science. Krauss and Dawkins go back and forth calling it "literally nothing" knowing it is something, and even their something can't produce what we have. kzbin.info/www/bejne/i4WWlZmGhMl0j7c Krauss admits he does not give a damn what nothing means and he then says he wants to be honest with his readers. He is full of doublespeak. He is WRONG and all he has is pride to continue saying such stupid things. www.nytimes.com/2012/03/25/books/review/a-universe-from-nothing-by-lawrence-m-krauss.html?_r=1 "One unsolved mystery is why there is an excess of mater in our universe; this is the Matter/antimatter problem. Why is the universe only made of matter? Matter/antimatter particles annihilate each other to produce radiation. Radiation coverts to equal amounts of matter and anti matter. Krauss says that the CMB suggests the photon-to-proton ratio was a billion to one. He says that by ‘plausible quantum processes’ the universe started out with 1 part per billion more matter than antimatter. Most of the matter and antimatter combined to make photons. Later he admits we still don’t really know how this asymmetry between matter and antimatter began." "The energy calculated for empty space assuming virtual particles is 10 to the 120 times greater than that observed. This is a long-standing unsolved problem." "Krauss also says that this proves you can get something from nothing given the energetics of empty space and the law of gravity. So he says you can get a universe from nothing if you can start with empty space with non-zero energy and the laws of gravity and quantum mechanics. He admits empty space with non-zero energy is something!" Quotes from another review of Krauss' book here: creation.com/review-krauss-universe-from-nothing You can read Hawking, Krauss, Dawkins, and others who praise their gravity but they just made it up and have no idea where it could have come from. And the list goes on. All they have comes down to nothing. From the start, fools gave up their logic and that does not bother them. When it does not bother someone from the start, they continue giving up their logic with what follows. Funny too how Epstein helped Krauss. That money wasn't from nothing, it was from someone disgusting helping another disgusting person, Krauss. www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/phoenix/2019/07/12/former-asu-physicist-lawrence-krauss-got-250-k-jeffrey-epstein/1718659001/ ---Lawrence Krauss, a physicist who retired from Arizona State University, even continued defending Epstein after his 2008 conviction, telling the Daily Beast in 2011: “As a scientist I always judge things on empirical evidence and he always has women ages 19 to 23 around him, but I’ve never seen anything else, so as a scientist, my presumption is that whatever the problems were I would believe him over other people.” He added, “I don’t feel tarnished in any way by my relationship with Jeffrey; I feel raised by it.”--- from: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2019/aug/18/private-jets-parties-and-eugenics-jeffrey-epsteins-bizarre-world-of-scientists

57:00 " if a baby universe where to form, from the inside it would look like it is expanding but from the outside is would look like a black hole." So dark energy is gravity seen from an other angle. So every black hole is a white hole and a universe depending on where you look at it. So quantum fluctuations also fluctuate at large scale, generating energy differential, wich generates a flow of matter (we call gravity) into streams (filaments) and pooling into clumps growing into black hole. (Quantum gravity for you) Other visualisation: Cymatics. The area that have large amplitude "repelles" the sand that gathers in smaller amplitude area. The vibration acts like a conveyor belt of matter. The vibration acts like gravity. It is not that spacetime is bent by matter. Spacetime vibrates and the vibration is crushed by matter. But like a battle rope, the vibration is pushing matter. It looks like the pilot wave theory. Let me know what you think. Enjoy Edit: if at the center of a hypothetical hollow planet we experience zero gravity, then the same applies at the center of a black hole. So zero gravity at the center of a black hole. Spacetime being stretched looks like expansion from the point of view of the singularity. A white hole would look like a big bang.
