I do not claim that this video demonstrates there is no God. It is not an argument against God in itself, so there is no argument from popularity or authority. I claim that the more scientifically and philosophically literate a person, the less likely they are to believe in a deity. If you think the concept of a God has nothing to do with the universe, logic, metaphysics, epistemology, human beings, etc., then this video is not for you. If you think it does have something to do with such subjects, then you might want to consider why the best experts on those subjects usually fail to see reason to believe in a deity.

Good! Glad someone brings that up. Human heuristic-style reasoning has a good deal of bias inherent in it. Some of it functions simply to reduce uncertainty; and some of it is anti-aversive. Sometimes it's just more efficient, even if it doesn't yield an ideal level of truth: size something up once or twice by observing its behavior, attribute an explanation to it, and you know how to proceed around it thenceforward, as a "rule of thumb," which may or may not be accurate, but which "works."

This is a great video. Thank you, creator (of the video) and uploader. Your choice to use soundtracks (like Howard Shore I think I heard...who ironically composed the score for the Da Vinci Code movie, lol; not sure if that was intentional) as the backdrop music is ideal, as it doesn't get in the way of the speakers...I think soundtrack music is usually designed to be non-distracting and supportive.

Though that is hard to ask from the devout, as critical thinking is to challenge and defend ones own points and even give ground when one reaches the limit of one's knowledge

In a mother’s womb were two babies.One asked the other: “Do you believe in life after delivery?”The other replied, “Why, of course. There has to be something after delivery. Maybe we are here to prepare ourselves for what we will be later.” “Nonsense” said the first. “There is no life after delivery. What kind of life would that be?” The second said, “I don’t know, but there will be more light than here. Maybe we will walk with our legs and eat from our mouths. Maybe we will have other senses that we can’t understand now.” The first replied, “That is absurd. Walking is impossible. And eating with our mouths? Ridiculous! The umbilical cord supplies nutrition and everything we need. But the umbilical cord is so short. Life after delivery is to be logically excluded.” The second insisted, “Well I think there is something and maybe it’s different than it is here. Maybe we won’t need this physical cord anymore.” The first replied, “Nonsense. And moreover if there is life, then why has no one has ever come back from there? Delivery is the end of life, and in the after-delivery there is nothing but darkness and silence and oblivion. It takes us nowhere.” “Well, I don’t know,” said the second, “but certainly we will meet Mother and she will take care of us.” The first replied “Mother? You actually believe in Mother? That’s laughable. If Mother exists then where is She now?” The second said, “She is all around us. We are surrounded by her. We are of Her. It is in Her that we live. Without Her this world would not and could not exist.” Said the first: “Well I don’t see Her, so it is only logical that She doesn’t exist.” To which the second replied, “Sometimes, when you’re in silence and you focus and you really listen, you can perceive Her presence, and you can hear Her loving voice, calling down from above.”

"Would you need science to tell you when it was wrong to kill someone?" It is such an obvious fact that killing is undesirable for those who want social cohesion, that you don't need to even do "science" to demonstrate the fact. You just need to know that killing is suffering, and humans don't like suffering by definition. I don't need more than that to call it wrong. I don't even feel the need to refer to that as a "moral" decision, it is a purely logical one.

Ironically just watched a video talking about how scientists are normally experts in extremely narrow fields,and often arrogantly pontificate about areas way outside their field of expertise.Many have little knowledge outside their chosen field and are often philisophically very naive.The blind faith people put in anyone with a lab coat on is amazing.They have become a modern cultural priesthood. (The fellow who brought this up was a leading expert on hormone transfer through patches on frog's underarms,btw!)As CS Lewis remarked ,those who worship science will find themselves to being ruled by a 'papacy of professors.'

Your comment is very interesting and explains why theists would believe certain notions no matter how illogical. There have been studies conducted which show a correlation between theistic belief and levels of intellect i.e. the higher one's intellect, the less likely they are to believe in god. There would obviously be exceptions to this but in general, your idea of a fundamental bias in the brain to reduce undesirable information is well worth further investigation. Thank you.

Wilczek has it right when he suggests that some portion of humankind can by sheer effort invent a better way of telling stories about the world than is found in certain "ancient texts", at least if you prefer to understand what sort of PHYSICAL world it is in which you live. It is also a great improvement on much that is in those texts simply to either throw them away, analyze them into their origins as a philological exercise, use them as grist for analyzing cults which use them as propaganda, or just let the collect dust on the shelf. As to "what Truth, and what Goodness" there are to be found in them, it turns out that it is either something we already know or take for granted, something that most people already more or less believed or imagined, or else a plagiarism from another spiritually significant text, one which was taken (lifted), distorted, and in most cases ignored or burned, and possibly also copied and buried away in some damned vault under some damned temple. It is a landmine field at best. Better to take the words of the wise man seriously, and "Know Thyself".

I am highly educated, IQ 145, love the hard sciences etc. Even without these credentials anyone can come to know that there IS indeed a God who loves us and as told to us repeatedly: Seek and Ye shall find. If you sincerely want to know God, get on your knees, sincerely pray and ask God to manifest Himself to you in your life and He will! Spiritual knowledge must be discerned in a spiritual way. You can pontificate till the cows come home:) and this will lead to nowhere. Humble yourself, truly seek God and you will know for yourself that God is Love and is our Father and Creator.

"The materialist neuroscientists are being swept aside by quantum mind theory put forward by Penrose." 1. Quantum consciousness is a theory within materialism (the quantum world is not immaterial). 2. Quantum decoherence is a one equally plausible argument against it, put forward by Tegmark and others. 3. As a physicist, Penrose is unlikely to "sweep aside" neuroscientists from their own field. And indeed, it is a claim with no basis in fact.

The "feeling" is irrelevant, the only relevant aspects are whether something is consensual (a desired action) and whether it causes harm (i.e. an unwanted effect). The feelings of empathy simply mirror that logic. But what makes it wrong is that it is not conducive to social stability, not the feeling of revulsion against it. If we simply went with feelings, then racism and sexism would still be considered morally acceptable.

We either 1) believe because of material determinism in which case we have no reason to trust that our beliefs are rational and not a deterministic delusion of physics on one level and evolution on another, and also in which case, calling our beliefs rational, or presupposing that they line up with an underlying reality is a logically superfluous (Russel's teapot), and faith-based claim that can not be justified by any materialistic scientific or logical process, or 2) come to our beliefs because we have freedom to do so, in which case we have to appeal to a super natural mechanism that enables true not-deterministic free will.

I completely agree with you. Before the Big Bang at t=0 there is no space & time and the density of the universe is infinite since any mass divided by 0 space is infinite. Whereas vacuum fluctuations require a vacuum (empty space) in order for virtual particles to pop in/out of existence in a very short time. It also allows 1/100,000 gram as the maximum amount of matter in a volume of 10^-45 cm to avoid becoming a singularity. But with infinte density it becomes a singularity.

i can answer this pretty simply; i can because i do. raindrops dont have the capability of perceiving purpose. I perceive the need for purpose, as i think most of us intuitively do so. i have no reason to distrust the existence of this concept.

as far as statistics, many scientists like to apply this to observation, excluding emotional/intuitive evidence; so i was pulling the rug out from under this statement, saying that statistical real-world data applies to abstract concepts. an example would be "we see things happening a certain way, and so we slowly become more comfortable with believing them to be true" im saying that statistical data is not fundamental, and cant be used as an ultimate natural-world answer.
