Have my exam today... These videos have been a life saver!

[@fionalouisedarcy3357]

Your videos have been so useful, thank you for making them! :) I've been trying to do practice essays and a lot of them ask for strengths of the design argument, I don't really know what to say for strengths - I can explain different philosophers versions of the design argument but I don't think I'm answering the question properly :( Can you help, I'm only two weeks away from my exam?

[@900MeTube]

How come you didn't mention the arguments of Aquinas' argument?

[@MrMcMillanREvis]

The Sharmanic Nucleus I have to make a decision about trying to balance including enough information without making it too long, so I decided just to cover these two forms.

[@SquidPartyGames]

MrMcMillanREvis Just finished my philosophy exam! Thank you for all the help. It is very much appreciated.

Not sure if anything can be more complicated than the sum of its causes, since the sum of its causes effectively act as a definition of it. Can something be more complicated than its definition? Extracting an image from a .zip file seems like a counter-example, but if you think about it the image has 2 causes: The zip file and the computer that makes sense of the zip file. Similarly, life has 2 causes: Dead matter and our equivalent of the computer (call it the laws of nature) which dictates how order will come from dead matter. Whatever the complete explanation is, can it be less complicated or amazing than the result, since it effectively *contains* a description of the result? Not sure if evolution (while true) eradicates the need for design or pushes it further up.

[@MrMonsieurCreeper]

Absolutely brilliant, thank you so much for existing! xD

[@JuiceAndBricks]

Do you know where the the claim that: had the 'Big Bang been stronger/weaker by 1 part in 10 to the power 60...' comes from? Like a case study or a scientist?

[@Charlie-us8rm]

Do you do any videos on exam technique etc Thanks

[@domofrank]

10p1 loved this video! Thank you :)

[@defenestratefalsehoods]

For starters if you stumble across a rock maybe it was placed there by a dump truck or rolled there by someone years prior. You cant determine it has been there forever.

[@nafizarahman33]

[@SquidPartyGames]

Evolution kills Paley's idea!

[@jonathanedwards7021]

+Metamorphesis yes but then the physical arguments overcome the need for the biological ones so evolution becomes useless in this argument

[@Blythehouse1]

Cicero was a Roman orator and politician, not Greek at all

[@MrMcMillanREvis]

Hi Gillian, thanks for the correction. An honest mistake on my part. I will try and add an annotation to the video to show the mistake.

[@MrFruityPassion]

amazing

[@adamfox7312]

Wasup Mr Hewitson

[@CMG_2515]

Who else has to do this for homework??

[@happyyhippyy]

Can one believe in both God and the many-worlds interpretation?

[@jonathanedwards7021]

+Caitlin McGregor I guess it's possible but you'd then have to stretch your belief of God. Personally (but biased as a Christian) it seems the multiverse is just something atheists have made up because a God not existing seemed so imporbable due to the physical constants mentioned in the video, but it seems even harder to believe to me?? seems the only point is that some athiests are so against the idea of a God that they made up this idea of multiverse to reject this arguement but it based on no real evidence and is really just a manifestation of a need they feel to reject any arguement even if their replies make no sense

[@dcscccc]

.the watch maker argument is perfect when we add the dna and self replication .a) we know that a self replicat watch with dna need a designer becuase of its complexity b) from a material prespective the human is more complex then this kind of watch a+b= the human need a designer the evolutionist always says that a watch need a designer because it cant self rplicat. so if we will find a self replicat watch we need to say that is made by itself check creation.com

[@oliverhitchcock5897]

Useful video, but I would definitely include the 'dysteleological argument' as strong evidence against an Intelligent Designer
