He can tell you about his experiences but people can think he's either nuts or manipulated by other believers.

@@tiffanytaylor1502 If I understand what you are saying on LA Vogt's behalf, I suppose, that whether we are atheists or theists, we are actually more emotionally attached to a concept than intellectually. For example: “If one were to prove this God of the Christians to us, we should be even less able to believe in him... It is our preference that decides against Christianity, not arguments." --- Friedrich Nietzsche Obviously, Nietzsche’s disbelief was based on his will, not just his intellect. It's quite visceral. People believe what they want and dismiss whatever evidence they don't personally favor. Blindness isn't always a physical disability more than just a starkly unreasonable state of mind. To this effect, there is a reasonable purpose for debate, although, at times, it can be visceral and very confrontational. Really it should come across as, "I know that's what you think, but have you considered___________?" Any such discussions about reason vs religion are that way and almost always because we are emotional creatures - no matter how we post the language. I am not an apologist, however. I fail at that... as you could probably tell. But to me, we will always face two driving factors of these debates and these are 'the ambiguity of everything' and 'our insatiable curiosity'... That said. (Typed) I agree that we ALL have a kind of "FAITH" in something that we can't explain entirely, whether we are religious or non-religious...

I recommend watching Hugh Ross (an astrophysicist), and Nabeel Qureshi. They have very interesting points in my opinion. I agree with lennox on this: The Biblical God is eternal, therefore the question doesn’t apply to him. Outside of that, we need an eternal agent because life (as described in science) needs to come from living things. Therefore there must be an eternal life source at the start of it all, from which all life comes from. I also like to point out the way “time” works when talking about the beginning in John. “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God.” It sounds different to what we describe things. What I also found interesting is that The Word God is literally the name of God. Which is telling us that the Word Is God. Those are some things I think the Holy Spirit revealed to me and I’ve been thinking about too

Human beings demand that a Creator have a beginning as they did. They feel in some way it would make Him more relatable to us. Because in our earthly reality, everything has a beginning, a start. Including an atheist, on this discussion, who doesn't even acknowledge the existence of a universal creator is just a big distraction from tackling this issue. So, for me personally, I would just as soon leave him out of it. But since he is included in this vid, I'll patiently acknowledge his prescence. Dawkins has attacked Genesis 1:1, so why not start there? Take another look at that same scripture that he claims to know so well and can easily refute, and ask yourself this question: Is it NECESSARY that God HAVE a beginning? Just like us? Gen1:1-" In the beginning, God created". God is the Creator. He created everything which implies that before him there was nothing. Would he have the right to that designation as the Creator, or the original cause of everything, if someone or something created Him? No. Should we, in our limited existence and limited minds expect to relate to this fully? No. Would a grasshopper with a limited life span of some 40 days easily grasp and relate to the fact that there are living things on this planet that can live , not only 50 + days, but 50 or more years? No. Because that is completely out of their experience and understanding. So just because we cannot fully understand a higher being, with a higher intelligence who could have no beginning or end, doesn't mean that it isn't true.

Because I would have thought that by now, with all of its modern day achievements, human investigations- which in part is what science is about- should have discovered ALL the answers. But thet obviously haven't, which proves that scientists are STILL discovering things about well known insects, mammals, fish, birds, plant life, even the make up of the earth itself, the ocean not to mention the universe, that humans still do not understand.

First of all you're leaving it for us to infer that you have a knowledge of something external or existing beyond time and space even though you, your mind and yourself can only exist with these confines, which in itself is ridiculous since neither the human mind nor any other mind that we know of has the ability to think "outside of the three dimensions that we and our minds are all confined by and imprisoned within". To top off the absurdity of your statement, not only do you claim to know of a state outside of existence (which is the same as being outside the three dimensions) but that you also know of the existence of an entity that resides within that state. You also claim to know how long this entity has "been alive" within that state, yet you expect an intelligent person to believe what you said just because you said it, and not only that, but you expect to be believed without explaining how you could possibly know of an existence being outside of time and space etc. in the first place, let alone the state of the alleged entity allegedly residing within.....or without.

How can you tell that the container you are in is expanding? By observing (or measuring) the space between the components inside the container. If things are spreading out then we would say the container with all its contents is expanding. The observation from our vantage point would be the same whether the container is infinite or simply unfathomably large. You cannot say that you know for sure that the container is finite and you cannot say you know for sure that there is something outside of the container. Just because the universe is expanding, this does not imply there is anything outside the universe. It does not necessarily mean that it is expanding into something.

It is frustrating to attempt to answer this question. Leave alone understanding the cause of creation, the human mind is not capable of perceiving creation in its totality. Going by the concept of the unobservable universe, no human being knows the end of the universe. This is because the universe goes beyond the human ability to comprehend the future. Likewise, the human mind is limited to comprehending the past. The much the human mind can comprehend is limited to the time and space it occupies during its existence.

Ben Gray, JESUS WAS GOD THE FATHER YHUH (John 1:1) AND HE CAME TO EARTH AS "The Son of God". JESUS IS GOD THE FATHER YHUH(in the flesh form). SATAN HAS MANY WAYS TO DECEIVE PEOPLE. HIS MAIN INTENTION IS TO MAKE PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT JESUS IS NOT GOD. NO WONDER, ALL OTHER RELIGIONS PREACH THAT JESUS IS NOT GOD (INCLUDING JEHOVAH WITNESSES)! THESE CHURCHES OF SATAN TAKE THE SAME ROUTE - Only difference is that JWs are more cunning - claiming that they believe Jesus is the Son of God BUT IS NOT GOD THE FATHER - THE FACT IS, THEY DO NOT WORSHIP JESUS AS GOD! Jesus is God -- satan will NEVER admit that! Jehovah Witnesses also follow satan and will never admit that Jesus is God! 1 Timothy 3:16 "GOD was manifest in the flesh!" JESUS SAID THAT HE IS THE ALMIGHTY GOD in Revelation 1:7,8! John 1;1 clearly states "HE WAS GOD". How many Gods do you think John believed there was? - Answer: ONLY ONE GOD! So, when John stated "He WAS God", he meant that JESUS WAS "THE ONE TRUE GOD, THE FATHER YHUH". Also in John 8:24 -28, JESUS SAID THAT HE IS GOD THE FATHER YHUH (in the flesh). Isaiah calls Jesus "ETERNAL FATHER" & "COUNSELLOR" (Holy Spirit) in Isaiah 9:6 because He understood/knew this. And this is the name by which he will be called: “YHUH our righteousness" Jeremiah 23:5-6. Zechariah 14:9 - In that day there shall be ONE Lord, and HIS NAME ONE - when it that day be? When the world understands that JESUS IS YHUH (in the flesh). THIS VERSE CLEARLY SHOWS THAT GOD THE FATHER (YHUH IN THE SPIRIT) IS JESUS (YHUH IN THE FLESH) - Zech 12;10, YHUH (God The Father) says, "then they will look on ME whom they pierced." WHO WAS PIERCED? Answer: Jesus. God The father CAN SEPARATE HIMSELF - Can you explain Genesis 19:24 (from your Bible) 24 "Then YHWH made it rain sulfur and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah it came from YHWH, from the heavens". WHO WAS THE YHWH ON EARTH, AT THE SAME TIME? Remember that no one had ever seen God The Father (scripture states), so who was THIS "YHUH" ON EARTH? Answer: He was "The Word Of God". The final form "The Word of God" took was as Jesus so as to become the sacrificial lamb to pay the penalty for the sin committed by Adam & Eve. BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, "THE WORD BECAME FLESH)". Jesus said in John 16:27 "I CAME OUT FROM GOD". THE BIBLE CLEARLY SHOWS/STATES THAT JESUS IS GOD THE FATHER (in the flesh) AND BEING "THE ARM" OF GOD, HE IS THE CREATOR. DURING THE TIME JESUS WAS ON EARTH HE WAS 100% HUMAN, not both human and God as many Christians WRONGLY think/believe. Hebrews 2:7 "Thou madest him a little lower than the angels" & Psalms 8:5 "For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour" ARE PROOF OF THIS. BEING HUMAN, Jesus prayed to God The Father YHUH saying “You are the only true God”. Jesus had made it clear that His miracles were done by God The Father, John 5:30 "I can of mine own self do nothing". If Jesus was God DURING HIS TIME ON EARTH, WHY DID HE PRAY TO GOD THE FATHER ASKING FOR HIS GLORY TO BE RESTORED? This show that He had NO GLORY during His time on earth. Can God suffer pain, can God feel hungry, tired, thirsty? Can God die (Jesus died!). AFTER HE ASCENDED TO HEAVEN , HE RECEIVED BACK HIS GLORY (His Name YHUH and His Title "God" - "Thy Throne O God") - Philippians 2:9. GOD THE FATHER WILL NEVER CALL ANYONE ELSE "GOD” EXCEPT HIMSELF (in the flesh)! THE IMPORTANT FACT IS WHO IS JESUS NOW IN HEAVEN, not what He was during His short time on earth! It is very important that one should know and believe that JESUS IS GOD THE FATHER (in the flesh). If this is not very important, then WHY DID JESUS SAY IN JOHN 8:24 “FOR IF YE BELIEVE NOT THAT I AM HE, YE SHALL DIE IN YOUR SINS”. Who does the “HE” refer to? THE CONTEXT OF THIS SPEECH WAS ABOUT GOD THE FATHER. Read verse 27 "They understood not that HE SPAKE TO THEM OF THE FATHER". John 8:28 “WHEN YE HAVE LIFTED UP the Son of man (when you have unveiled ME), then shall ye know that I AM HE (then you will realize that I AM GOD THE FATHER- YHUH in the flesh)”. ISAIAH 9:6 CLEARLY STATES THAT JESUS WILL BE CALLED “ETERNAL FATHER”. Matthew 23:9 “And call no man your father upon the earth: for ONE is your Father, which is in heaven - how many Fathers in Heaven? Only ONE! Did Isaiah blasphemously say that Jesus is the Eternal Father? NO! Isaiah knew that Jesus is God The Father YHUH (in the flesh). Stephen saw Jesus standing at the side of God The Father and cried out "Lord Jesus, receive my spirit" - WHY DIDN'T STEPHEN CALL OUT TO GOD THE FATHER WHO WAS BESIDE JESUS? Wouldn't this be an insult to God The Father - to belittle Him? Answer: STEPHEN KNEW THAT JESUS IS GOD THE FATHER YHUH (in the flesh).

Both are entities difficult to define but we can measure empirically the result of their existence, thoughts and actions come as a result of consciousness, these are observable and measurable right? Same goes for energy, the result of an energy force being applied can be seen and can be measured scientifically. You cannot make the same claim of any deity you care to name. His analogy is flawed

[@josipfleis9223]

Consciousness is a virtual reality inside on ones mind. Energy is the capacity of system for doing work.

It's simplistic reasoning for idiots who think an analogy suffices to determine another subset of questions pertaining a theological nature.

Lennox avoided the real argument, which is, “if there would be something that logically doesn't need to be created, God, according to Christians, then also the Universe can logically be uncreated”. Usually, religious people say that the Universe had a beginning, the Big Bang, and that would be the difference, but that's not a good argument, since the cause, even if there should be any, for the Big Bang doesn't need to be logically non natural. As far as the energy analogy, it's totally inadequate because science doesn't say energy exists, it just says that this concept, invented by man and described by mathematics, helps us calculate what is going to happen next. No scientist actually believes in energy, they just must know how to use the concept to make predictions. Now, what prediction the trinity of God helps us make?

[@scottbrady9639]

Gaudio Wind Science doesn't say energy exists? Does it exist when the event being observed is happening? Science may not say it, but you have sense enough to know it exists at some point. The Trinity isn't used for prediction, but to reveal the full nature of God. The difference between the creation of the universe and God is one is a cause, the other is effect. For every action there is a reaction, without God the creation of the universe is an effect without a cause. (For Christians, that is, I know atheists are still searching.) The cause always comes first, without getting into a "god of gaps" debate, we believe this cause to be God. When God said, "I am that I am" he was telling humanity there are some things we can't comprehend, his eternal existence is one of them.

[@GaudioWind]

Scott Brady Thanks for replying Scott. Nice talking to someone about interesting issues. I believe we are talking about two points here, the logical need for everything to have a cause and the existence of energy. So, I think, about the first point, you say, in short, that everything must have a cause, except for God. Is that right? And about the second point, the existence of energy, I think we can better understand each other points, after you answer me the following question: Do you believe there is something, which is equal to electrical charge multiplied by the square root of speed (q x sqrt(v))? I tried to create a totally new and unknown equation, q x sqrt(v). Honestly, I don't know if it has ever been referred by any scientist, but I believe it doesn't mean anything at all. However, of course, I could name it as I pleased, since I invented it right now. For example, we could name it as “elecnergs, Es”. Would you believe elecnergs exists just because I can write, Es=q x sqrt(v)?

[@scottbrady9639]

On the first point, that is right, he is the cause and what upholds all things. We believe he set the laws of physics "by the word of his power". He made and sustains the universe to have free-will moral agents choose to worship him. When we try to trace our steps of cause and effect backwards the steps must stop at a cause. The human mind is limited, this is more than we can fully grasp, but it is okay to think about. On the second point, that question is over my head. My science background since high school chemistry has been Nova and the science channel, but judging from the last question elecnergs (I think that just broke my spellcheck) probably don't exist. To answer the last question, of course not. But if you are reading this now you are consuming electricity. That should prove the existence of energy. I think Lennox was referring to energy in reality, not theory. Not that there is anything wrong with theories to understand our world, but do they mean anything if not applied to reality?

[@GaudioWind]

Scott Brady Since we are talking about Lennox argument, I propose that we focus on the logic of it and skip, for the moment, what we believe or not. Is the statement that everything (except, God) needs a cause a logic conclusion or just a premise that you assume to be true without justification? If your answer is that it's a logical conclusion from a reasoning then I'd like you to present that. And about the second point, the existence of energy, I would just like to point out now that I could say that I am consuming oxygen and some kind of fuel, not energy, in my brain to look at the screen. In fact, a lot before science has created the concept of energy, man knew that we needed fuel to make fire, expend effort to produce movement etc. But let's forget this energy issue, for a while, if you don't mind. The first point is already enough for now, isn't it?

[@scottbrady9639]

That is a tough question, maybe a little of both. Faith tells me to assume without justification, but logic tells me what it told Newton. Somehow the chain of cause and effect was broken, is there anything you could present besides God that is both a cause and effect? If you theorize that before the big bang the universe was packed into a form that could fit in the head of a pin the obvious question is, what caused that? From what the episodes of Nova said about the force that caused the big bang and string theory, the forces locked the laws of physics into place, the same thing the Bible says about God. This force (by way of the laws it set in place) eventually found a way to make people that choose to worship God. I accept that the evidence isn't conclusive, but I see it as enough to connect the dots when coupled with how I feel God works with me personally. Also, on your first comment, why wouldn't whatever created the universe be greater than and transcend the universe's need for creation?

Christians argue that you can’t have something from nothing, yet they want you to believe that God just always was.
