About Young Sheldon:
It’s 1989 and 9-year-old Sheldon Cooper has skipped four grades to start high school along with his less-intellectual older brother. As he struggles to be understood by his family, classmates and neighbors, his mother arms him with the best tool she can come up with: reminding bullies his dad is the football coach and his brother is on the team. His twin sister doesn’t share his exceptional mind, but she has a much clearer vision of what life has in store for the young genius.

"Well, there's five billion people on this planet, and you're the perfect mom for me. What are the odds of that?" I love this scene, it's sweet to see Sheldon Comfort Mary, even if he doesn't believe in God himself.

One of my favorite scenes. Definitely my favorite between Sheldon and his mom

[@noname-codm4590]

3:26 Science and Religion is strongly related just like Sheldon struggles to believe in it, I mean he doesn’t believe in God himself but he understands that there must be a creator at least. Oh well, a catholic priest even suggested The Big Bang theory. Wait a minute? What did Genesis 1:3 said? “Let there be light, and there was light”. You might have guessed now why he has came up with the idea of Big Bang theory. Sir Isaac Newton, the one who discovered gravity, was interested with the bible.

[@ohifonlyx33]

"The precision of the universe at least makes it logical to conclude there's a Creator" I am shocked and amazed at how tastefully done this scene is.

[@thelightside77]

Extremely.

[@777Skeptic]

I guess if you already in a religious cult, it just reinforces your preexisting beliefs. I shuffled a deck of cards 7 times. There was a 1 in a trillion chance I got this arrangement of cards instead of any other order. Doesn't make it logical to believe there was a magical being that intended me to get this particular arrangement of cards. Any other arrangement was equally likely.

[@thelightside77]

@@777Skeptic I think you're overthinking on it. Religion is mostly intuitive and you have both functions as a human. Logical and intuitive. Why not use both? I think your issue is in how some people express their feelings on what God is or isn't which isn't particularly the point.

[@777Skeptic]

@@thelightside77 I'm never said you couldn't use both. I'm saying this scene is just appealing to people who already believe god(s). It's cr1nge, and unless the kid is supposed to be 4|_|7i5t1c or just have a dry personality, I don't think he's a very good actor. But that could be the writer's fault. His lines aren't well written. No kid actually talks like that. It doesn't feel like a spontaneous conversation a kid would have, it feels robotic and rehearsed.

[@SonOfGod0600]

@@777Skeptic I didn't believe in God, until I cried out to him and asked him to save me if he was real. He saved my life that night and I felt his presence ,his peace and love all over me. You're one prayer away to encountering the living God but yet you choose to waste your time arguing about God not existing even though the evidence is everywhere. Wherever you look theres evidence of a creator, you yourself are evidence of a creator. But you blindly and selfishly decide that a random explosion gazillion years ago somehow created intelligent design and life that is so perfect that it makes absolutely no sense. I'm here to tell you that God is not a distant God, he is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. And he wants to have a relationship with you as father and son. There is no religion in him, he despises religion because its a human creation and its dead because there is no spirit of God in religion. That is why Religion often divides, robs and kills.

That line about gravity is a logical fallacy. If gravity weren't exactly as is, we wouldn't be here to be able to question it, therefore it wouldn't matter. If multiverse theory is right, there could be a bunch of universes where the gravity is too high, or too low, and a bunch of them that hit just the right spot.

Children have the ability to easily pick up on the emotions of those around them and if the parents of the child get sad about something the child will immediately look to see if they or something they did is the cause of this sadness that is why Children aren't usually the ones to report on abusive parents even though they are the ones being abused since they will always blame themselves for the abuse and that it is never their parents fault it is always their fault

Well we wouldn't exist if it all didn't line up. How many times has the universe collapsed and banged and nothing could survive

[@camilaribeiro9191]

I do believe in god, but it’s orderly based on our reality, if somethings were slightly different we probably wouldn’t be here, but other things would exist. The universe is perfect for what we know, but if things were different it would be perfect for another type of reality. When scientists try to find life in other planets searching for water is because life as we know needs water to exists, but other planets may have other element that supports other type of complex organism not based in carbon, their not something we know, and probably our lives wouldn’t be possible at those planets, but they are perfect for their reality. If things in universe were different it wouldn’t be perfect for our existence, but it would be perfect for other reality.

[@kylekataryn3454]

​@@haiderrazabhutta9783You reach a point in intelligence that even you have to think Logic and Illogical Properties are two sides of the same coin. Logic is the side that has been ordered to follow the logical ideologies of perception. The laws that can be defined and set for understanding our own reality. Whereas the Illogical is the side that has no order, it is chaos that cannot be ordered as it follows an illogical ideology of perception. A perception that will not follow any law and incites entropy for the sake of cosmic wonderment. A unique function of this fundamental property is that it is, in fact a paradox. One that has no order and or law, yet has one solid law, the Law of Illogics. It will forever be a Paradox, it will never have order but it is in itself the one Law that maintains the functionality of the universe to maintain that status quo. No matter how much law and order you set in the universe, there will always be unexplainable chaos, things that you would think are impossible or outright illogical, as it cannot exist without this Law of Illogics.

It's really nice that we get to see how Sheldon and Mary's relationship got to where it is in TBBT. The first time we saw her there, there were no background stories or anything. We just found out that Sheldon respects and loves her a lot. So it's really nice to see it in this show.

[@partyguy101ify]

Not only that, but Mary reads the books Sheldon recommends or sends to her.

[@mollee4950]

I’m not sure if you know this or not, but the actress that played Mary in TBBT (as well as “Aunt Jackie” on the tv show Roseanne) Laurie Metcalf, is Zoe Perry’s mother; Zoe Perry is the actress that plays “Mary” on Young Sheldon. I wasn’t too sure about Young Sheldon when it premiered but my mother started watching it and a few episodes in she asked me to watch the next episode because the actress that played Mary was familiar to her but she couldn’t place her. So that Thursday I watched it with her, and it took me about half the episode to figure it out because she was so familiar to me too. As soon as I said that’s “Aunt Jackie” from Roseanne, my mother was like “YES! I KNEW I’D SEEN HER BEFORE” and after I googled her real name, I found it was Laurie Metcalf’s daughter Zoe Perry. They are so very alike, same facial expressions, sound the same when they’re mad, it’s like they’re twins and not mother-daughter.

This scene always makes me cry. As a parent, all we want is the best for our kids. I get seriously shook when anything happens to a kid because I immediately put myself in the parent's shoes. The loss of a child is something I never wish on even my worst enemy. Children are sacred. I am also moved by Sheldon's concern for his Mom and tenderness with how delicate an issue it was for his Mom. He said exactly the right thing she needed to hear, at exactly the right time. There is such sweetness in him that he just wants to make his Mom whole again. Mary Cooper is a woman of faith period. Without it, I don't think she could cope. Sheldon is an atheist and moral. I love how this is displayed. My boyfriend is an atheist. He is one of the most moral people I know. I love seeing Sheldon recognize that restoring Mary's faith would make his mother whole. He chose a way to do this that so artfully respected his own beliefs and intelligence as well as speaking to her heart, where the problem lay.

It sounds funny for you to believe in God, Albert Einstein left the group, do you know why? He is a genius, Nobel Prize winner, and he does believe in God. How poor you are hehe

[@syarajjj]

​@@MarkJohnR.Marimon I think what he meant was it sounds funny because Sheldon, an atheist, is the one convincing Mary to have faith in God again, not that believing in God is funny itself.

[@flamethrowerflufsalisbury]

After my divorce, I became an athiest for about 3 yrs because I (mistakenly) thought god abdoned me. A friend sat me down & said, "You love your kids more than anything. & while you cant stop bad things from happening to them, you will give them the strength to carry on. God works the same way." I started believing again at that very moment.

[@OcramJC]

I'm an atheist and my best friend is a christian. When she's feeling down, I still remind her that God is with her and to not give up for she's not alone. I just know God makes her strong and who am I to deny her of such power in her life just because I don't have the faith to have it in mine?

​@@AnEvolvingApeA well written scene is still a well written scene whether or not you share the characters' perspectives. The beauty of dialogue since Socrates and Plato is to channel ideas towards a debate.

@@AnEvolvingApe Sheldon is being sympathetic while appealing to Aristototelian ideas -which are widely discussed even today- through the lenses of current Science. That's it.

Sheldon is so smart he for his age that he doesn't stop to think about other people's feelings. But whenever his Mom or Dad seem down. He always has a way of making them feel better by showing just how smart he is. But then he has to take credit for it. Still a sweet moment.

Currently a deist. Former atheist because I was angry with God so I thought I would deny his existence, as if that made any sense. I come from an abrahamic family (Father christian, Mother Muslim) so me and my folks never really got along when it came to religion. Been through a lot, never really cried in the last couple of years. Thought I forgot how. Knew about this scene but it came up on Shorts, so I decided to watch it again with a clearer mind. I shed a few drops. Lost family members, the girl I loved for 2 years (didn't die but y'know, heartbreak), ongoing traumas about my drunk old bastard etc. but this scene was the thing that made me cry the most in the last couple of years. Sounds exactly like the conversation I would have with my mom for her to not lose her faith. In Allah, Jesus, Jehovah, Buddha, whatever. I might not have it, but maybe faith is all that she has that keeps her living through this garbage dumpster of a world. And I would want her to keep it.

People say Mary is biased towards Sheldon and she gives him all her attention. I won't defend that but looks at this. When Mary feels down Sheldon's the only one who tries to make her feel better.

I like how Sheldon, an atheist, is worried about his mom not going to church or saying grace, simply because it breaks a habit and he hates change. He would go out of his way to break his own beliefs (or lack thereof) to comfort his mom so that things go could go back to normal.

[@Tiresias55]

1:29 "Can I sit with you?" "I think Mommy needs to be alone right now." Haven't seen this yet in the comments, but it wows me how she instantly puts aside her wish to be alone, to comfort her child, and to talk with him. Mothers, good mothers, are so used to making sacrifices for their children's well being. God knows, my own mother has made many many sacrifices for me, and I really really need to let her know how much I appreciate her for that. There are seven billion people on this planet right now, and God made it so I was born to the perfect Mum for me. I need to thank him for that a whole lot.

This is really sweet and well written because at first, Sheldon tries to fix the problem with the way that he approaches the world, with logic. If ever he was having an issue, he would need logic to bring him back, which is precisely why he first uses logic with his momma. But seeing that it didn’t work, he switches his approach to emotion, which he knew would help his mom, and did! Very sweet scene, brought tears to my eyes

His dad died when he was just 14. Sheldon doesn't talk about it. But that must mess someone up pretty bad. Let alone a kid like Sheldon. I think his passion to be robot like grew when the emotions he was dealing with became to much to handel

[@JrKdM]

it seemed like he regressed in the original show compared to young sheldon but it was just cause sheldon had been comfortable with his fam growing up while it took a long while to get comfortable outside with people who he cannot just easily trust or have enough real time or exposure to create deep bonds as he had with his family.

[@survivingsam4404]

[@theatomcbucket7700]

1:42 that breaks my heart into pieces as smart as Sheldon is even he can’t understand when somebody’s hurting on the inside and it scares him because he doesn’t understand it. It’s one thing that he can’t wrap his head around the mental battles that people go through he can look it up in a text and answers it scares him not being able to understand it, but he uses his knowledge in science and math to show his own special way of emotion to care and comfort his mother 🥲

[@bugraoz51]

I know most of the fans of this show can't bring themselves to love or even like Mary as a mother, wife, friend, and daughter. But I really love the character. She's so real. I am not a mother, nor a woman. But I am a son. And I see my mom in Mary really often. She loves all her children even though it seems like she adores Sheldon the most. She's trying to the best for her babies, yes she sometimes overreacts and act, and makes their lives harder without wanting. But we all know she tries to be the best mom. And wife, and daughter, and friend. She deserves more than what she's given by the fans of the show and her babies.
