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.

    6':27" "Theologians have invented this almost self-consistent subject which has no contact with physical reality. They invent all sorts of questions which they then taunt humanity with." I admire Atkins, but I'd like to ask him what would he feel if he said the same words thinking of mathematics, not religion. Mathematicians taunt humanity with all sort of ugly questions like Fermat's lst theorem, or Goldbach conjecture, or the Zeta Riemann function. Mathematics, like God is supernatural since it does not obey the 2nd law of thermodynamics, it does not decay, it is eternal, it is true, it is before times and will be after times as the theologians like to talk. I am sure Atkins, a scientist of the first caliber respects mathematics. So I want to ask him: What is the difference between mathematics and religion? It is a rhetorical question since he had already provided the answer: 6':50" Cosmic purpose. Science asks the question How did we get here? Religion asks the question: Why are we here?

    What is this post trying to attempt, other than confidence in the material world of the third dimensional status pro quo, through academia...what Nobel Laureate award winners and experts in the field of science? Impractical. Dead experts like Rousseau himself, and Carl Sagan, Philosopher and physicist...academia no fact, no comment. Five examples validated Darwin's evolutionary method, and others reference disciplines to validate themselves in the form of tested fact only, what does one expect. I use and accept the academia environment, because I enjoy Philosophy, science and engineering...it requires knowledge of the disciplines and facts, and I accept that. Many Philosophers, neurologists, physicists, well formed into academia, why would they go against their God whom feeds them top choice chow, and many top toys to wrap they're rationalizing minds around? The university is they're God, and they use they're tools and determine atheism in life frame, and why not. But to establish themselves as the only thinkers in this world, and everyone else is an idiot savant whom hold beliefs in faith like a hallucination in contempt of rationality. If one Darwinist could example me in fact a species that has actually evolved into another species...try me id like it to be proven. Likewise I can't do the same without the form of dogma from the religious arena, but only for myself, why because the construct of religion is one thing and the construct of science is another. How can one prove a higher construct produces the disciplines without non-acquirable facts.

    Before I watch this, you do not require a scholar to speak about God and spirit, because it does not require only an academic to stimulate soul, consequently they may be intelligent combined with a weak soul. God is about scripture and faith, and academia is about science and facts, but not necessarily truths.

The Theory of Everything by arrogant hawking. This is the evidence that these atheists are stupid fools. All that are existing have a creator that is why I attribute the universe and all that is in it to my God of the Bible because for the simple reason that man cannot create it. All the atheist academics know is blah blah blah without substance. Romans 1:17-22

    Religious belief stunts the mind. If you believe that a historical personage was capable of supernaturally multiplying fish and bread, capable of walking on water, capable of raising the dead, and - most ludicrously of all - was capable of raising himself from the dead, then it evidences that one's mind is capable of believing in other more dangerous fantasies as well. Religious believers do not see the danger in their "faith" or non-rational convictions. America's current political landscape is but a single example of its consequences. Religious belief requires that observations of the world around you must be dismissed.

You are doubting the God of the Bible who created the Heavens and the earth and all that is in them; you cannot believe that Jesus Christ was born of the virgin, walked on the waves of the sea, and brought dead people back to life. Your little brain cannot comprehend that mystery you stupid arrogant maggot. Because you are only a maggot compared to God, you are only a crawling worm. John 3:12-13 - I have spoken to you of earthly things and you do not believe; how then will you believe if I speak of heavenly things? 13No one has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from Heaven - the Son of Man. John 3:19-20 - And this is the judgement: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. 20For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to light, lest his works should be exposed.

    Thank you for this video. I am not religious, but have a degree in religion (lost it along the way). I thought this video was going to be about renown scientists speaking about why they DO believe in God. I try to watch things I don't agree with from time to time, to make sure I don't live in an echo chamber, and see if there is something out there I am missing. So I pressed play getting ready to be mostly perturbed, but was pleasantly surprised instead.

"Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son." alan dershowitz do not undermine God by your lying comment.

You believe socrates more than God, Jeremiah 17:5 - Thus says the Lord: "Cursed is the man who trusts in man, who draws strength from mere flesh and whose heart turns away from the LORD. God is wrong and you are right. WHAT A PROUD AND ARROGANT MAGGOT! he he he!!! Job 25:6 - how much less a mortal, who is but a maggot - a human being, who is only a worm!"

That is injustice. God is justice. Remember that the spirit of man is immortal. It will be judged by God in Judgement Day whether it be good or evil. Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 - Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep His commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind. For God will bring every deed into judgement, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil.

    The God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit are three distinct persons. Not one God which is also the Father, which is also the Son and which is also the Holy Spirit with coequal power. It is the doctrine of roman catholic church which is a lie. steve jones you are confused of this doctrine because you are not reading the Bible. You are ignorant of the truthfulness of the Bible. Matthew 3:13-17 - Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John. 14But John tried to deter him, saying, "I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?" 15Jesus replied, "Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all righteousness." Then John consented. 16As soon as Jesus was baptized, He went up out of the water. At that moment Heaven was opened, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on Him. 17And a voice from Heaven said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with Him I am well pleased." (So I therefore conclude that the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are three distinct persons not one and is not coequal in power as the roman catholic church teaches.) If they are one the voice from Heaven will say, "He is also me!!!!" he he he!!! Because God cannot lie - Titus 1:2. John 14:28 - You heard Me say, 'I am going away and I am coming back to you.' If you loved Me, you would glad that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I. brian greene your brain is not design to fathom the mind of God of the Bible. We are only like maggots compared to God. Job 25:6 - how much less a mortal, who is but a maggot - a human being, who is only a worm!" So do not be so arrogant before God. Let us admit that our 10% mind produce by our brain created by God is short to comprehend the creations of infinite God. Isaiah 55:8-9 - For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the LORD. 9For as Heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts cannot be fathomed by your thoughts. stuart kauffman not all religions are stupid. The religion built by Jesus Christ is the true religion. Matthew 16:18 - And I tell you, that you are Peter (Greek, Petros - a large rock), and on this rock (Greek petra - a huge rock like gibraltar) I will build My church, and the gates of Hades (death) shall not ovetpower it. John 3:16 - For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Jude 4 - For certain individuals whose condemnation was written about long ago have secretly slipped in among you. They are ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into a license for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord.

    1 Corinthians 1:27-28 - But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; 28 God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are, 29so that no human being might boast in the presence of God. friedrich nietzsche, all the interesting people are missing in Heaven because they are condemned of not believing God. John 3:18 - Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever who does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God's one and only Son. Those interesting people are missing in Heaven because they do not believe in the God of the Bible, that is why God put them in a place where there is no GOD. Plain and simple he he he!!! The true religion was built by Jesus Christ manifested in the flesh. Not by Voltaire the pathological LIAR. Matthew 16:18 - And I tell you that you are Peter, (which means rock, not the disciple Peter that pope francis upholds that Peter the disciple was the first pope of the roman catholic church, which is a BIG LIE!) and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. 1 Corinthians 1:2 - To the Church of God which is in Corinth, to those who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus, saints by calling, with all who in every place call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours: (Not the churches built by men who are LIARS and after only for the money of its members and not to salvage their souls and spirits to perdition. THEY DO NOT CARE FOR YOU BECAUSE THEY LOVE MONEY! - 1 Timothy 6:10. History of faith introduces the existence of God, who creates everything, giving true information in agreement with the Bible, which cannot be opposed by anyone who is a liar, proud and arrogant. Why? BECAUSE THE BIBLE IS THE BOOK OF GOD, THEREFORE THE BOOK OF TRUTH. THE ONLY BOOK IN THIS WORLD THAT TELLS THE END FROM THE BEGINNING, FROM ANCIENT TIMES WHAT IS STILL TO COME. AND GOD SAID, "MY PURPOSE WILL STAND AND I WILL DO ALL THAT I PLEASE." Do not tell the world that God did not create the universe and all that is in it. May I ask who created the universe? Do not tell the world that hawking, peter singer - by the way he is out of tune, - do not pity the little children because they will inherit the kingdom of God - Matthew 19:14. Pity yourself because you are already condemned, neil degrasse tyson, carl sagan, dawkins, steven weinberg, laurence krauss, robert coleman, richard feynman, simon blackburn, colin blakemore and all the arrogant maggots that are talking in this video created the universe. They are just proud worm who cannot create even one hair white or black. Two of the compelling evidences are leonard susskind and oliver sacks, not only their eyebrows were burned but also all of their hair by studying physics and neurology, which GOD created. But at the end of the day, these persons really sucks. he he he!!! ROMANS 1:22 - CLAIMING TO BE WISE, THEY INSTEAD BECAME UTTER FOOLS.

      richard feynman your little brain cannot understand why Jesus Christ came into this world. Your 10% mind cannot comprehend this mystery - Hebrews 10:5 - Therefore, when Christ came into this world, He said: "Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me; 6with burnt offerings and sin offerings you were not pleased. 7Then I said, 'Here I am - it is written about me in the scroll - I have come to do your will, my God. John 3:12 - I have spoken to you of earthly things and you do not believe; how then will you believe if I speak of heavenly things? 13No one has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from Heaven - the Son of Man. Isaiah 55:9 - "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither your ways my ways," declares the LORD. "As the Heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts cannot be fathomed by your thoughts. That is true, the Word of God speaks the truth, because until now the JWST cannot fathom the third Heaven - the abode of God. --- 2 Corinthians 12:2-4. The more scientifically literate, intellectually honest and objectively sceptical a person is, the more likely they are claiming to be wise but became utter fools according to God. Put faith in God not man. Man is only a maggot compared to God, man is a crawling worm. So do not be so arrogant before God you fools. You have nothing to brag about to God you LIARS. Proverbs 3:5-6 - Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own self understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight your paths. Psalm 118:8 - It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man. 1 Corinthians 2:5 - So that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God. Jeremiah 17:5 - Thus says the LORD: "Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart turns away from the LORD. Hebrews 11:6 - And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who seek Him. Hebrews 11:1 - Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for the conviction of things not seen.

    I did not even reach two minutes, had to stop listening, utterly disengaging. In stark contrast with the 3 other episodes where scientists speak about their -absence of- belief in a God, and more specific about religion(s) or religious beliefs about (human) life in general. If one thing stood out immediately in this episode, then this: in the 3 episodes i mentioned earlier, i didn't hear once the phrase 'hate', here within the first 2 minutes it's being associated with human gestures which are composed of joy and directed to harmony and unification. Poetry is dead, long live poetry.

    “Existence” is a man made concept... just think about that. There are extra dimensions that are beyond our reach and understanding. How does this relate to this video’s theme? Everything (another man made concept)

    The nice thing about god/s is we don't need them. In the modern era we have scientific explanations that make such beliefs redundant/obsolete.

    If God say that a thing is right, which is wrong, then God is wrong. My ancestors will celebrate a human meet from a stranger. It was right. So sir, how do you know what is right or wrong?

    Half way through the video and as a Muslim, most these speakers are just embarrassing.
