As others have said, I can just turn one of your compilations on while at work and just start listening for a few hours without having to search for something new to listen to. While I have seen (or rather listened to) all of your videos, I still enjoy tossing on your compilation videos when they come out for the reason. I'm a tradesman at General Electric, and I don't have time to search KZbin for something that's actually good every 15 mins or so. So your 2 or 3+ hours compilations are PERFECT!

In 2004 I had a WPW attack and was rushed to the ER. They tried to get my heartbeat down from over 300bpm. As a last resort the doctor had to stop my heart..kill me and shock me back to life. As soon as I saw the line go flat I had a out of body experience. I lifted slowly to the ceiling of the room as they prepared to zap me. The first and then 2nd jolt had no effect. As they prepared for the 3rd zap the doctor said please lord bring him back and shocked me again. I was instantly back in my body, as I opened my eyes my heartbeat was at 80bpm. I looked up at the doctor and nurses and said you had to zap me 3 times. The doc said how did I know that? I told him how I was in the air above them, even told them how the 1 nurse put my foot back on the table after jolt 2. Every one in the room was amazed. It changed me forever. There is more then just this reality I'm sure of it.

I am a retired minister and science buff. I've never seen science and religion as incompatible. Observation (our senses) tells us what. Religion tells us Who. Science tells us how. Philosophy tells us why. Art interprets them all and presents them in a relatable form to be observed (back to our senses).

[@andreaberryhill6654]

Beautifully stated!

[@14yeartwitch14]

I always thought that science and scientists (if they're completely honest and open minded about the evidence) explore and discover the ways of The Creator, and how intricate and complex his creation really is, especially in the verse, ".... to rule the night: He made the stars also". Such a vague finish, but God explains their purpose. However it is for man to seek the ways of God, it's just that throughout history, man discovers something and instead of placing the piece of the puzzle into the Bible that fits so perfectly, they cram the piece into their science books, deforming, manipulating and sometimes breaking the evidence to make it look as if it fits into this idea of evolution. Problem is everytime they cram one piece in, the next piece has to be distorted and deformed even more.

[@shaftomite007]

Except when religion becomes dogmatic about nonsensical explanations for things science explains better thru observation. Like the earth being 6,000 years old, etc, tons of stuff from the Bible and other religious texts

[@ElysetheEevee]

I just finished a humanities college course where we learned the importance of art and how it contributes to society and world view of different times. I was reading some information exactly what you said about which explains "who," "why," and so on. Your ideas make a lot of sense. I don't believe in God to a fault. I do believe pretty much anything is possible, though. I think there's way too much we don't know and can't prove. Maybe the God many of us imagine is as AJ said earlier on. Maybe "ghosts" or "angels" we see are something completely different. This is why is makes me mad when people confidently dismiss others' views and beliefs (I tend to see this with much of the Christian belief system online, more than other religions or beliefs). We just don't know. That's why they're "beliefs." The fact that all of this are different components of the same truth would be interesting and make some sense.

[@Barryislarge]

Science always winds up returning to faith imo! You can't give a human answer to prove a human framework and say "this is provably true"! It's like saying "I know it to be true, because I said so". Baudrillard and Gödel talk about this in length. There must be an outside perspective to verify things. It's why things always break down eventually to "we don't know yet"!

As a kid in the 80s, I had a "revolutionary" idea about living in a simulation and dreamed of writing a book and making a movie about it. It's fascinating to see that many had the same idea long before me and now, 30 years later, it's a widely accepted possibility. This convergence of thought highlights our shared curiosity and the power of human imagination.

[@3DPDK]

Thomas Edison believed that ideas, especially innovative ideas were periodically "made available" in some sort of subconscious aether. These ideas can be accessed by anyone. The trick to being a successful inventor/creator was to tune into these ideas, or at least act on them before anyone else. He believed this explains why inventions can appear around the same time around the globe with no connection or communication between inventors. He also believed that "tuning in" was best accomplished during sleep dreaming, which is why Edison took "cat naps" throughout the day rather than sleeping a straight 8 hours.

AJ, I've said it before but its worth repeating. Your show is the best of all on the internet. Now, to solve an issue for you. Jaws girlfriend from Moonraker had braces when either the trailer or test footage was shot, but had them removed just before filming the movie. The actress that played her is where I learned it when in an interview she was asked about it.

[@faith-y6753]

I just wanted to pop in and say thank you for your videos. All the hard work you do to make your content is AMAZING! My family and I enjoy watching your content and discussing it afterwards. You've given us something to discuss and connect over. The video quality,the jokes and the way you objectively tell stories using the data you have, also the honesty I feel from your videos, all these things are appreciated with your hard work. So I applaud you and thank you. I hope 2025 is easy on you, wishing all the best. -faithful viewer ✌️🕊️

Two takes of the scene was shot. One with and one without braces. The one with braces was shown in theaters as the original movie. Then more recently, lawyers decided it wouldn't be "woke" or "politically correct" to make fun of people with prosthetics, so the alternate scene was used in new releases.
