The rabbi confused me with his logic. He says the way to read the old testament is to look at the stuff proven to be wrong as symbolic but the stuff yet to be proven wrong as literal. It should be symbolic until proven literal right?
It’s that the Torah has room to be interpreted in more non-literal manners *if* and only *if* significant scientific evidence says otherwise. This idea itself is even controversial and it’s very nuanced and a case by case thing.
@User-h3n7x no nuance there, you are saying the same thing. If proven false, take not literal interpretation. Should be non literal until proven literal. I stand by that and don't submit to sophistry.
@@dewiwilliams4821 No- it shouldn’t be the case. It should be taken as literal until shown otherwise in someway. A plain reading of the text makes it literal and a perusing of rabbinic sources would should you that most (some don’t) take it literally. The reason you should take it literally until given reason not to is because the text is given as literal with the caveat that if philosophical truths or scientific proofs contradict it, it can be reinterpreted in light of them. This idea is controversially expressed by Maimonides when he’s talking about whether the universe is eternal or not. This makes much sense if you think about it, and what you’re saying doesn’t make any sense. Just because certain things (this principle is pretty much just applied to Genesis) can be reinterpreted based on contradictory proof doesn’t mean that you can just assume it’s 𝐚𝐥𝐥 non-literal. The text is given as literal. Now I don’t actually hold of this idea, but I do disagree that it should be the opposite, like you said. Especially when the 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐥𝐞 is only formulated this way.
@User-h3n7x thanks for the clarification, I do see the difference between reading it as literal and reading as truth so I see the point you were making now.
Yeah but these religious people would NEVER change their minds, so it's pointless. They're always so disingenuous when they say they enjoy arguing with Dawkins. Don't make me laugh
@@davidstaffell I don’t think anyone is trying to change their opponents mind. I think both sides realise they may learn something from the other, and both sides have the humility to respect someone with different views. That’s actually quite hard to do, as it requires, intelligence, maturity, and humility. No one has the right to change another’s mind, that is just arrogance. It’s up to each individual to search for the truth, and these two men can help a wide range of people to do that.
{Then when the boy reached the age to work with him, Abraham said, “O my dear son, I have seen in a dream that I sacrifice you. So tell me what you think.” He replied, “O my dear father, Do as you are commanded. God willing, you will find me steadfast.” Then when they submitted, and Abraham laid him on the side of his forehead, We called out to him, “O Abraham, You have already fulfilled the vision.” Indeed, this is how We reward the good-doers. That was truly a revealing test. And We ransomed his son with a great sacrifice and blessed Abraham among later generations. Peace be upon Abraham. This is how We reward the good-doers. He was truly one of Our faithful servants. We gave him good news of Isaac, a prophet, and one of the righteous. We blessed him, and Isaac as well. Some of their descendants did good, while others clearly wronged themselves.}
{Have they not realized that God, Who created the heavens and the earth, can re-create them? He has set for them a time, about which there is no doubt. But the wrongdoers persist in denial. Say, “Even if you were to possess the treasuries of my Lord’s mercy, then you would certainly withhold, fearing they would run out, for humankind is ever stingy.” We surely gave Moses nine clear signs. Ask the Children of Israel. When Moses came to them, Pharaoh said to him, “I really think that you, O Moses, is bewitched.” Moses replied, “You know well that none has sent these down except the Lord of the heavens and the earth as insights. And I really think that you, O Pharaoh, is doomed.” So Pharaoh wanted to scare the Israelites out of the land, but We drowned him and all of those with him. And We said to the Children of Israel after Pharaoh, “Reside in the land, but when the promise of the Hereafter comes to pass, We will bring you all together.”}

As a person born of Jewish parents raised in a conflicted Jewish environment, my grasp of Christopher Hitchens, Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris has changed dramatically my sense of freedom. My childhood experiences with the mannerisms of rabbinical leaders such as Rabbi Sacks, their stories and persuasive descriptions, always turned me off as people filled with their own righteousness, guaranteed by their ego and gods approval.
My experience is that there are no more egotistical and abusive people than Atheists. Atheists killed over 100 Million people in the 20th century alone with their "we know how to rule over people and religion is poison claims". The freedoms Americans have came from Christian ministers using the teachings of Jesus the Jew. There are no more generous people than Jews and certain Christian organizations like the Mormons. Tell what Atheist groups have given? Humm death and destruction!
@@JD-ev1uj Now there’s that Holier Than Thou attitude I was looking for! Are you so full of yourself or is that the light of the lord that gives you that shine from above?? What a stupid reply.
My take-away here (and I don't believe I'm alone) is that Rabbi Sacks is simply the latest example of how much Religion has conceded in the last half century. If Hitch was here he'd say "Rabbi Sacks, you're getting closer and closer to the truth every day!"
You are, also, conflicted, like your parents. So was the biblical Job. You are, also, a Jew. It’s good. You always know what you are. You belong. Mazel tov!
I met a man in wheelchair ramdomly yesterday and he told me he suffers from post traumatic syndrome due to been a victim of abuse by catholic priest when he was a young boy. The court case is still ongoing.
So you can see that people can abuse their position, as unfortunately happens everywhere. Blaming a religion makes no sense, people without religion who do the same in a different position of power. Religion has precepts, but they are rarely followed by people and can also be abused. Dawkins prefers to blame religion for all the misery because he is an atheist, but he forgets that people themselves cause all the misery.
@@heinpereboom5521 He probably does not need to blame Religion to show that religion itself is man-made construct inspired by the idea of a a super natural being.
This particular Rabbi is a master of deflection, goalpost moving, false analogies, burden-shifting, circular reasoning and unsubstantiated assertions. I didn’t hear him make a single argument - and I’m being generous in using that word - that couldn’t be easily debunked. Thus his relentless condescension, frequent interruptions and impugning of motive. The muddier the field, the more difficult it is to evaluate what’s happening.
this is how every debat should be: listening to each other with mutual respect and not just repeat standpoints. and that seems to be inpossible in 99,9% of the debates with apologists.
If mutual respect means calling someone anti Semitic for merely pointing out the obvious truth about a literary character, that's a sad state for society.
She’s trying to keep them on-track. Unfortunately, rabbis are incredibly skilled at shirking the actual point being sought by the moderator and opponent. (I say rabbis are skilled at talking around the point half to their detriment and half as a compliment to them-rabbis are among my favorite speakers of the religious authorities who take part in these dialogues, even though they can be frustratingly evasive)
Thousands of religions have in deed “phased out” and many of them indeed “overnight “ … usually through the violent demise of all its adherents by the hand of other delusional exigencies. The set of religions available today are a function of chance and violence.

There have been, in the past, many intellectuals who believed in God, such as Albert Einstein, Isaac Newton, and Carl Jung. If you're asserting that only fools ever believed in the supernatural, or God, if that's what you mean by 'supernatural', then clearly there are examples to prove the contrary, and your statement is proven to be subjective.
The rabbi was rude and constantly interrupting, which is what people do when they are advancing weak arguments. There is zero evidence that the ancient Jews were ever held in bondage in Egypt or that one or two million people walked around in circles for forty years in the Sinai peninsula.
THis is one of those arguments that people just repeat and eventually people believe it "There's no evidence for the exodus there's no evidence for the exodus" its a false narrative. There is plenty of evidence you just have to look past a simple google search. Plenty of Academic papers by respected academics on it.
Richard Dawkins the most rational, logical person I've ever seen, we really need more people like him. I like Richard look forward to the post religious age, the sooner it comes the better.
People who know that G-d is Our Creator are not 'rational' and 'logical'? Only "new age" thinkers are? That's not either reasonable or rational or logical.

To admit that one is ignorant of a long-persisting pattern of human belief from the history of one's own culture and then in the next breath, claim the entirety of a concept emerged from one's own individual thinking (as if one is not a social animal, who grew up and learned by mimicking those around him), reminds me of that cartoon about the fish who, when asked about the temperature of the water that day, replies "What water?" Human beings (particularly young ones) are often susceptible to the conceit that our most cherished perceptions of reality and theories as to its nature are unique and products of our own individual genius. The older I get, the more it becomes apparent to me how very "normal" I am . . . at least in terms of the core characteristics that make me a human being . . . and only human, at that.
I am often struck by the fact that intellect denying writers, like modern existentialists or postmoderns, write books using millions of words in carefully phrased logically consistent chapters trying to tell us that our words are meaningless. I find modern philosophy so stupid; as it claims incoherently. Ed Feser is a wonderful philosopher who woke up from the idiocy.
This is why we can only judge people on ACT, and not abstract moral laws. I think his point was, children are taught to judge others as being 'different' through abstract moral beliefs. Children understand truth at sight, they do not require lessons on morality - this is why religion is wrong, because it teaches a moral law, which always results in judging others and condemning those who are 'immoral' in their eyes. Moral good and moral evil are the same thing because because morality itself is the problem.
Anthony Flew is considered one of the most prominent atheists, so he retracted his atheism and ،told us that the universe has a deity with modern scientific evidence, not with thought or dreams and feeling, but after science and modern discoveries about the existence of a Creator. He fell into another problem that the Creator wanted according to his mood He wanted the Creator to be neither speaking nor hearing, and creating creation in vain But it is logical that this Creator sends a messenger to teach us who he is. And we have to verify the authenticity of the Messenger and what this Messenger calls to? It transports sperm from the liquid state to the eyes, heart, blood, arteries, and bones. Unconscious nature creates a conscious human being. Then this nature teaches about the importance of the heart and lung, then puts the rib cage, then oxygen, then water, there is sexual desire, and there are the genitals to complete the male and female sexual process. , What coincidence are you talking about, a coincidence that creates the male and the female. All of these are called verses and there are things that complement each other, there is a lung and there is air and there are teeth and stomach and in food and other things and we say that it has no creator!!! The only question God will ask you is focus on it ((He said: Did you deny My verses and did not encompass them in knowledge, or what did you do?))

((The decree will befall them for what they did wrong, and they will not be able to speak.

The Almighty’s saying: ((And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander. )). That is, the sky expands with time. This fact, even in the time of Einstein, was not imagined by anyone and it was proven. And Einstein admitted it and admitted that it was the biggest scientific mistake he made in his life if he believed that the sky was fixed. The Qur’an before Einstein says that the sky expands fact Almighty’s saying: :((And We have made the night and day two signs, and We erased the sign of the night and made the sign of the day visible that you may seek bounty from your Lord and may know the number of years and the account [of time]. And everything We have set out in detail. )). The verse of the night is the moon and the verse of the day is the sun. The Qur'an tells that the sun and the moon were fiery masses. That is, the moon was a fiery mass and was erased, and the verse of the day remained visible to the eyes. Was the moon a fiery mass and extinguished? This is one of the biggest scientific issues discovered about the moon.

Modern sciences have revealed that in the bottom of the deep seas with abundant water - the deep sea - there is great darkness, to the extent that living creatures live in this darkness without visual tools, but live using their other senses such as hearing. These dark darknesses are not found in the sea water that surrounds the Arabian Peninsula, but rather they have been discovered in the oceans far from it This verse shows another aspect of the Qur’anic miracle, which is that the sea wave that all people only knew was one wave in the seas The verse says there is another wave in the depths of the sea, and divers discovered at the beginning of the twentieth century a fact that was hidden in the depths of the sea, that fact that shows another wave that throws divers into it as it is thrown at swimmers, and this wave was discovered by Scandinavian divers.

One thing that I do not understand that Rabbi sacks referred to. He said that Adam and Eve were a parable and not actual people who were the first humans. In studying from a Jewish standpoint I understand that the ancient rabbis believed that the cave where Abraham and the other patriarchs were buried they said one step further into the cave is the gate to Eden and that Adam and Eve are buried in the deeper part of that cave.
The Rabbi completely ducked the idea of raising children with a religious identity attached to them. The idea that singing the songs, going to the school, being taught the beliefs, etc, doesn't obviously instil the desired religion into the child the vast, vast majority of the time is just wheadling of the most pathetic kind. Admit that you raise children with a belief already in mind for them to be instilled with, and either justify that or stop doing it.

Whenever they commit a shameful deed, they say, ''We found our forefathers doing it and God has commanded us to do it''. Say, ''No, God never commands what is shameful''. How can you attribute to God what you do not know? Say, ''My Lord has commanded uprightness and dedication to God alone in worship, calling upon God with sincere devotion''. Just as God first brought you into being, you will be brought to life again. Some are guided, while others are destined to stray. They have taken devils as their masters instead of God, thinking they are rightly guided.}
What we should all remember, as a foundation for this debate, is that Aristotle’s physics, with its teleological principle, held back the advancement of empirical and mathematical physics for perhaps 1,700 years. His physics were absolutely convincing and were held as dogma by Church theologians, but it turns out they were simply wrong. This goes to support Dawkins’ first statement that the question of “why” should be left out of hard science.
One cannot ever leave the "why" out of hard science - and, whether he realizes it or not, Dawkins doesn't either. The "why" is the fundamental question as to why anything is the way it is at all. It's the fundamental principle, the granting of that which can't be explained behind *any* scientific theory. In the entire history of science, there is not one single exception to this. None whatsoever. For Dawkins it's the presumption that spacetime itself is fundamental and that what we refer to as "physical objects" actually exist whether they're observed or not. FWIW, modern science has *deeply* troubling results for Dawkins that not only threaten, but clearly cut out the legs behind both his presumptions, but that's another beast entirely. For a theist it's that there is an intelligent mind behind the clearly defined and rule-based system of that which we call physical reality. That mind cannot be explained - only that it exists as the one granted miracle that explains everything else as a result.
@@rotorairgroup8409 I don’t understand your question and statement. Before the era of modern science Christian theologians integrated Aristotle’s physics into Christian philosophy as dogma and used it to support their world view. This is historical fact.
@@vivaldesque If the christian teologians incorporate a non christian concept in their nonsense it does not give it a christian perspective, it is not christian nor is dogma. It cannot be used to support something that is unsupportable because it is not real.
This creation, the structure of the universe, the foods, the tongue that tastes, the teeth that grind, the stomach that digests, the excretion of waste from the body, oxygen, the lungs, the eyes, the sexual desire and many other things, this does not indicate anything. Are you 100% sure of not having a creator? Rivers and seas and the creatures in them and the rain that sows the earth beyond It is very with lots of fruits Nothing creates something Are you 100% sure of not having a creator? Go and see what religion commands you to worship. One Creator created everything, no three, no more, no less, but one. Go and see for yourself, you will find only one religion But I will remind you of something you may have forgotten. And I want you to think about it. You are here in this world against your will. Just think a little bit that you are not here. By your own choice. You are here by choice.Choose to be here.He is one and you will go. See who commands you to worship one Creator, and you will find one religion, which is the religion of the prophets, and that is Islam. The matter is not easy, the matter is great in this existence, because whoever is able to bring you into this world against your will, after death, will either find you in grace and beauty that you have not seen, or torment and fear. which you have not seen. Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, is a prophet from the Creator, and before him many prophets did not lie or deceive, and he is the only religion that commands you to worship one Creator who created everything. First of all, you should know that the religion of all prophets is the worship of one Creator who created everything. Islam today is the only religion that commands you to worship one Creator and not idols, illusions, conjecture or a number of gods. But how do we know that the speech is from God and not from Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace? . These are some of the things that comfort your heart and believe that this is a prophet and many of the prophets before him This evidence appears generation after generation. The generation that lived with the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, witnessed miracles, and I collected for you what this generation has. in which we live The Almighty said: (Moreover He comprehended in His design the sky, and it had been (as) smoke) The smoke confirms that the origin of this universe is inflamed. It is not a lake of water, as was the perception of all philosophies and religions that are based on illusion. This is one of the postulates of modern science today that the sky is condensation of smoke. This fact converted the French scientist Maurice to Islam and wrote a book entitled the Holy Qur’an on the scale of modern science How did Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, know this fact before? The Almighty says: ((And the heaven We constructed)) The sky is a building, not a vacuum as it was thought, and this was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2017 that proved it How did Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, know this fact before? The Almighty’s saying: ((And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander. )). That is, the sky expands with time. This fact, even in the time of Einstein, was not imagined by anyone and it was proven. And Einstein admitted it and admitted that it was the biggest scientific mistake he made in his life if he believed that the sky was fixed. The Qur’an before Einstein says that the sky expands fact Almighty’s saying: :((And We have made the night and day two signs, and We erased the sign of the night and made the sign of the day visible that you may seek bounty from your Lord and may know the number of years and the account [of time]. And everything We have set out in detail. )). The verse of the night is the moon and the verse of the day is the sun. The Qur'an tells that the sun and the moon were fiery masses. That is, the moon was a fiery mass and was erased, and the verse of the day remained visible to the eyes. Was the moon a fiery mass and extinguished? This is one of the biggest scientific issues discovered about the moon. The moon was already a fiery mass, and NASA issued on its official website a conceptual clip entitled The Evolution of the Moon in the video. In fact, the moon was a fiery mass like the sun, and this is what the Qur’an told about and the truth of modern science. How did Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, know this fact before? Almighty’s saying And you see the mountains thinking that they are rigid, while you will cross as the passage of clouds. [It is] the work of God who has perfected everything. In fact, he knows what you're doing.)) And the verse clearly spoke of a strange phenomenon, which is that the viewer of the mountains appears to him still, that is, they are still, but in fact they are not like that, rather they are in a state of constant movement. And the infidels of Quraish had previously accused our master Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, of madness, and it is likely that their joy was overwhelming when this verse was revealed. They also found in it, according to their claim, evidence of this madness, and they told the people: How can you believe this man who says that these fixed mountains move like clouds moving in the sky! And today it is proven that the earth rotates, and with it the mountains, how did Muhammad know that and why is he telling you instead of the matter that makes people consider him crazy? The matter was not from him, but from God. . Almighty’s saying Those whom Allah (in His plan) willeth to guide,- He openeth their breast to Islam; those whom He willeth to leave straying,- He maketh their breast close and constricted, as if they had to climb up to the skies: thus doth Allah (heap) the penalty on those who refuse to believe)).

It was not from him, but from God Almighty’s saying Or (the Unbelievers' state) is like the depths of darkness in a vast deep ocean, overwhelmed with billow topped by billow, topped by (dark) clouds: depths of darkness, one above another: if a man stretches out his hands, he can hardly see it! for any to whom Allah giveth not light, there is no light! Modern sciences have revealed that in the bottom of the deep seas with abundant water - the deep sea - there is great darkness, to the extent that living creatures live in this darkness without visual tools, but live using their other senses such as hearing. These dark darknesses are not found in the sea water that surrounds the Arabian Peninsula, but rather they have been discovered in the oceans far from it This verse shows another aspect of the Qur’anic miracle, which is that the sea wave that all people only knew was one wave in the seas The verse says there is another wave in the depths of the sea, and divers discovered at the beginning of the twentieth century a fact that was hidden in the depths of the sea, that fact that shows another wave that throws divers into it as it is thrown at swimmers, and this wave was discovered by Scandinavian divers. .I will tell you what the Prophet said. The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: One day the Bedouins who live in the desert will build tall towers, and this is my duty. Go and see where the tallest buildings are and who owns them. God Almighty: ((We will show them Our signs in the horizons and within themselves until it becomes clear to them that it is the truth. But is it not sufficient concerning your Lord that He is, over all things, a Witness?) And God informed the Qur’an of this by saying: “Did you think that we created you without a purpose and that you would never return to us?” All these and other matters that I have not mentioned indicate that this is a prophet from God..More important than that, as I told you, is the only religion that commands you to worship one Creator, who created everything and before him many prophets Say, if you wish, there is no god but God, and that Muhammad is the Messenger of God speak from the heart ,.
I would love to see a debate between professor Walter Veith and Richard Dawkins...for those of you that don't know Walter please check his numerous videos...for this conversation I would recommend "Genesis conflict"...a scientific view of reality and the evidence that it presents when looking at the totality of what we now know.
Challenging arguments can be valuable as it encourages expansion of mind. Faith enhances belief, " ask questions , teach children to think for themselves, critique. " Thank you Richard Dawkins and the late lord Rabbi Sacks. 🕯

Anthony Flew is considered one of the most prominent atheists, so he retracted his atheism and ،told us that the universe has a deity with modern scientific evidence, not with thought or dreams and feeling, but after science and modern discoveries about the existence of a Creator. He fell into another problem that the Creator wanted according to his mood He wanted the Creator to be neither speaking nor hearing, and creating creation in vain But it is logical that this Creator sends a messenger to teach us who he is. And we have to verify the authenticity of the Messenger and what this Messenger calls to? It transports sperm from the liquid state to the eyes, heart, blood, arteries, and bones. Unconscious nature creates a conscious human being. Then this nature teaches about the importance of the heart and lung, then puts the rib cage, then oxygen, then water, there is sexual desire, and there are the genitals to complete the male and female sexual process. , What coincidence are you talking about, a coincidence that creates the male and the female. All of these are called verses and there are things that complement each other, there is a lung and there is air and there are teeth and stomach and in food and other things and we say that it has no creator!!! The only question God will ask you is focus on it ((He said: Did you deny My verses and did not encompass them in knowledge, or what did you do?)) I mean, God Almighty tells you what I told you is a lie and you cannot realize it or understand it And what in the world have you been doing? Do you know what your answer is? ((The decree will befall them for what they did wrong, and they will not be able to speak.

Yes I'll have to agree, although likely for a different reason. This video perfectly demonstrates how easily people can be manipulated through vague, false and damaging claims or beliefs. Also it perfectly demonstrates how hard and sometimes dangerous it can be to try to expose such manipulative behaviour, because the offender wraps their nonsensical arguments in powerful sensations like hope and both positive and negative emotion. Questioning or challenging the authority or the authenticity of the offenders claims and beliefs may also be simply rejected by claiming the challenger is some sort of a human hater or evil (talking about blasphemy, or perfectly demonstrated in this video; to be accused of being antisemitic). Not too many decades ago, and likely even today in certain regions of the world, a guy like Hawkins would be murdered for his very legitimate and objective utterances - and a great number of people would concur. It's absolutely insane, and horrendous. Personal belief in something greater seems a part of human nature to me, but that is completely different to the autoritarian or even totalitarian mass delusion that religion is.
18:55 Here’s your laugh of the day. “If a story in the Bible contradicts established science, then it’s a parable, otherwise it’s literal, and that’s how you tell the difference.” 😂
@@KXSocialChannel I understand you didn’t mean it literary, I understand you actually find the statement to be laughable, I’m asking why you think it’s laughable, or more literally, a dumb statement.
@@JMBen It’s funny because it’s a ridiculous line of logic. If I tell you that dark matter exists and it does, then I’m right, but if it doesn’t exist, then I was meaning for the statement to be artistic and for some other meaning to be gathered and you were never meant to take it literally as scientific fact.
Wow - the joke the rabbi told about "Are you a Catholic Jew or a Protestant Jew" was referencing page 194 of the Kindle version of "The God Delusion" - in the book the punchline used atheist in place of Jew. There are several other subtle references the rabbi makes to passages in the professor's book. Interesting.
Now that I'm getting older, i realized how precious life is, this life, the one i feel, think and act, the one that gave my conscience which determines who I am. To me, the material world is real, is what i know, the rest is speculation.
Allah Almighty says 163 Indeed, We have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], as We revealed to Noah and the prophets after him. And we revealed to Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, the Descendants, Jesus, Job, Jonah, Aaron, and Solomon, and to David We gave the book [of Psalms]. 164 Of some messengers We have already told thee the story; of others We have not;- and to Moses Allah spoke direct;- 165 Messengers who gave good news as well as warning, that mankind, after (the coming) of the messengers, should have no plea against Allah: For Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise. 166 But Allah beareth witness that what He hath sent unto thee He hath sent from His (own) knowledge, and the angels bear witness: But enough is Allah for a witness. 167 Those who reject Faith and keep off (men) from the way of Allah, have verily strayed far, far away from the Path. 168 Those who reject Faith and do wrong,- Allah will not forgive them nor guide them to any way- 169 Except the way of Hell, to dwell therein for ever. And this to Allah is easy.
It's not really a debate when one person is talking about a fiction that they want to believe is true, and the other person is having a fact based discussion. Richard is here to expose truth to people who are questioning their faith and hopefully give them the strength to break away and get back control of their lives.
@@elmhurst86 Dawkins is addicted to lots of fiction about that topic he is so ill informed about - culture and religion. So embarrassing. Amazing there are those gullible enough to listen to him rabbit on so ignorantly
If it had been proof of the Israelite god, surely he would have gotten a Nobel prize before he died and Dawkins would have been put out of a job, but umm....
@@bradthompson5383 @bradthompson5383 All of them…??? Really? Did you conduct a research about it or are you just coming up with some fake facts? Some if not most Rabbis are decent human beings, some are not but are there any evidence against Rabbi Sacks?
{Surely those who dispute God’s signs with no proof given to them have nothing in their hearts but greed for dominance, which they will never attain. So seek refuge in God. Indeed, He alone is the All-Hearing, All-Seeing. The creation of the heavens and the earth is certainly greater than the creation of humankind, but most people do not know. Those blind and those who can see are not equal, nor are those who believe and do good to those who do evil. Yet you are hardly mindful. The Hour is certainly coming, there is no doubt about it. But most people do not believe. Your Lord has proclaimed, “Call upon Me, I will respond to you. Surely those who are too proud to worship Me will enter Hell, fully humbled.” It is God Who has made the night for you to rest in and the day bright. Surely God is ever Bountiful to humanity, but most people are ungrateful. That is God, your Lord, the Creator of all things. There is no god except Him. How can you then be deluded? This is how those who used to reject God’s signs were deluded. It is God Who made the earth a place of settlement for you and the sky a velarium. He shaped you, perfecting your form. And He has provided you with what is good and lawful. That is God your Lord. So Blessed is God, Lord of all worlds. He is the Ever-Living. There is no god except Him. So call upon Him with sincere devotion, All praise is for God Lord of all worlds.}
This God who allegedly created the world out of love predestined the majority of his beloved creation to hell through disbelief. Very merciful indeed! 😅
{Then when the boy reached the age to work with him, Abraham said, “O my dear son, I have seen in a dream that I sacrifice you. So tell me what you think.” He replied, “O my dear father, Do as you are commanded. God willing, you will find me steadfast.” Then when they submitted, and Abraham laid him on the side of his forehead, We called out to him, “O Abraham, You have already fulfilled the vision.” Indeed, this is how We reward the good-doers. That was truly a revealing test. And We ransomed his son with a great sacrifice and blessed Abraham among later generations. Peace be upon Abraham. This is how We reward the good-doers. He was truly one of Our faithful servants. We gave him good news of Isaac, a prophet, and one of the righteous. We blessed him, and Isaac as well. Some of their descendants did good, while others clearly wronged themselves.}
Not sure I agree with the rabbi on one point - "Ein Mikra Yotzeh Midi Pshuto - a rabbinic dictum: A verse always has to be understood literally. There are however ways to reconcile a literal Adam and Eve with evolution.
@@michebb8330 The G"ra admonished the Rambam for allegorizing Talmudic stories: לפרש הגמרא הכל בדרך הלציי ולעקור אותם מפשטן וח" ו איני מאמין בהם ברוב לקחה ולא מהם ולא מהמונם אלא כל הדברים הם כפשטן Certainly, he would have taken issue with anyone who dared to allegorize biblical narrative. The verse you cite is dissimilar to the creation narrative. The Pshat of the eagle verse was likely meant by God as a metaphor from the get-go. It's one isolated verse that He states to Moses in first person The creation narrative however is very different ... verse upon verse upon verse .... Rashi spends an enormous amount of time explaining things k'pshuto.
Hey there guys. I would like to make a transcription of this video in order to get more insight into the text (wanted to discuss it with GPT). Any ideas how to get the text (besides transcribing it manually, which i consider doing)
This creation, the structure of the universe, the foods, the tongue that tastes, the teeth that grind, the stomach that digests, the excretion of waste from the body, oxygen, the lungs, the eyes, the sexual desire and many other things, this does not indicate anything. Are you 100% sure of not having a creator? Rivers and seas and the creatures in them and the rain that sows the earth beyond It is very with lots of fruits Nothing creates something Are you 100% sure of not having a creator? Go and see what religion commands you to worship. One Creator created everything, no three, no more, no less, but one. Go and see for yourself, you will find only one religion But I will remind you of something you may have forgotten. And I want you to think about it. You are here in this world against your will. Just think a little bit that you are not here. By your own choice. You are here by choice.Choose to be here.He is one and you will go. See who commands you to worship one Creator, and you will find one religion, which is the religion of the prophets, and that is Islam. The matter is not easy, the matter is great in this existence, because whoever is able to bring you into this world against your will, after death, will either find you in grace and beauty that you have not seen, or torment and fear. which you have not seen. Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, is a prophet from the Creator, and before him many prophets did not lie or deceive, and he is the only religion that commands you to worship one Creator who created everything. First of all, you should know that the religion of all prophets is the worship of one Creator who created everything. Islam today is the only religion that commands you to worship one Creator and not idols, illusions, conjecture or a number of gods. But how do we know that the speech is from God and not from Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace? . These are some of the things that comfort your heart and believe that this is a prophet and many of the prophets before him This evidence appears generation after generation. The generation that lived with the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, witnessed miracles, and I collected for you what this generation has. in which we live The Almighty said: (Moreover He comprehended in His design the sky, and it had been (as) smoke) The smoke confirms that the origin of this universe is inflamed. It is not a lake of water, as was the perception of all philosophies and religions that are based on illusion. This is one of the postulates of modern science today that the sky is condensation of smoke. This fact converted the French scientist Maurice to Islam and wrote a book entitled the Holy Qur’an on the scale of modern science How did Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, know this fact before? The Almighty says: ((And the heaven We constructed)) The sky is a building, not a vacuum as it was thought, and this was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2017 that proved it How did Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, know this fact before? The Almighty’s saying: ((And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander. )). That is, the sky expands with time. This fact, even in the time of Einstein, was not imagined by anyone and it was proven. And Einstein admitted it and admitted that it was the biggest scientific mistake he made in his life if he believed that the sky was fixed. The Qur’an before Einstein says that the sky expands fact Almighty’s saying: :((And We have made the night and day two signs, and We erased the sign of the night and made the sign of the day visible that you may seek bounty from your Lord and may know the number of years and the account [of time]. And everything We have set out in detail. )). The verse of the night is the moon and the verse of the day is the sun. The Qur'an tells that the sun and the moon were fiery masses. That is, the moon was a fiery mass and was erased, and the verse of the day remained visible to the eyes. Was the moon a fiery mass and extinguished? This is one of the biggest scientific issues discovered about the moon. The moon was already a fiery mass, and NASA issued on its official website a conceptual clip entitled The Evolution of the Moon in the video. In fact, the moon was a fiery mass like the sun, and this is what the Qur’an told about and the truth of modern science. How did Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, know this fact before? Almighty’s saying And you see the mountains thinking that they are rigid, while you will cross as the passage of clouds. [It is] the work of God who has perfected everything. In fact, he knows what you're doing.)) And the verse clearly spoke of a strange phenomenon, which is that the viewer of the mountains appears to him still, that is, they are still, but in fact they are not like that, rather they are in a state of constant movement. And the infidels of Quraish had previously accused our master Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, of madness, and it is likely that their joy was overwhelming when this verse was revealed. They also found in it, according to their claim, evidence of this madness, and they told the people: How can you believe this man who says that these fixed mountains move like clouds moving in the sky! And today it is proven that the earth rotates, and with it the mountains, how did Muhammad know that and why is he telling you instead of the matter that makes people consider him crazy? The matter was not from him, but from God. . Almighty’s saying Those whom Allah (in His plan) willeth to guide,- He openeth their breast to Islam; those whom He willeth to leave straying,- He maketh their breast close and constricted, as if they had to climb up to the skies: thus doth Allah (heap) the penalty on those who refuse to believe)).

But it isn't though, hey? People literally believe whatever their holy book says and their beliefs have nothing to do with anything Sacks says. He is a smart man and speaks well but he doesn't represent religion as it is actually practiced or the people involved
“We don’t have a ‘confirmation’ as you do in Christianity” ….. so what is that bloke dressed in a robe doing with that knife and hovering over the baby boy while chanting something?
Christian New Testament is originally written in Greek while Jewish Tanach is in Hebrew, 2 separate books in 2 languages, Jews don't read NT, Dawkins grew up knowing only Christianity.
@John Clapshoe the Jewish books are for Jews alone but king James Bible was used to gain land by the British Empire of which Dawkins belongs, he knows it was the king who created it!
Dear Rabbi, you are a wise man and I have tremendous respect for you. However calling out the opening section of Chapter 2 in Dawkins’s book (God Delusion) as antisemitic is a bit cheap. If an ex Jew wrote that instead of Dawkins, you wouldn’t have said that. With that line of thinking, any criticism of the old testament could be labelled as antisemitic to stifle debate and discussion. Please don’t weaponize the term and dilute it. Antisemitism, unfortunately rampant in the world, is to be found elsewhere.
17:01 actually, it was pepi II that the israelites were under. the date and length of his reign, what happened to egypt during that time and after his reign coincides with the biblical account of the exodus.
42:08 he was asking a very important question but Prof. Dawkins avoided to answer it. He spoke about things we do not understand yet. But the question of the man in the audience was about things science will never be able to explan. Things that a beyond our observations / beyond the universe / beyond spacetime.
Thank you for this debate! You know ever since I found out about Judaism my relationship with G-d is nothing like how Mr Hawkins describes it. I don’t want to do good or bad because G-d will punish me or reward me and I know that does not prove that G-d exist however I think most people have a really wrong perspective of G-d in the sense that in reality when people want to learn about religion they only dive a little bit and if you go being biased then you will find what you’re looking for. When I started to learn about Judaism I went with mindset that I’m Christian and I just wanted to know some theological questions that have always bother me and the more I learned about Judaism the more I felt in love with it because In reality Judaism is not like any other religion but you really do have to go in with an open mind and there is so much learning that you have to do.
What makes you think that your view is the right one? What exactly do you have a relationship with besides of your imagined imagination of a sky daddy?
@@JohnSmith-db2wl I never claimed that my view was the right one for everyone. It is my truth and my experience. What makes you think that your view is the right one? If your talking about observable facts I really do hope your the one that is learning about science and how the world works not only going with the crowd of so called atheist/agnostics that claim to know exactly their view of a “sky daddy”. My point is if your going to scrutinize someone or something open your mind to actually learn about it.
@@JohnSmith-db2wl yes most people have a wrong view of God. Yes Judaism is special. And no I do not want to convince you to change your mind what I wrote is a comment some people may agree some like you may not and that is okay. I have my reasons as to why I believe what I believe and I also understand why anyone would disagree. So I go back to my first point if you want to scrutinize someone or something you should really inform/learn about it. And by the way I say this to people that blindly believe in faith and religion.
@@JohnSmith-db2wl going by your fist first reply I would say that your not the only one that thinks like that. I would also encourage you to follow your own dogma.
The last questioner was *not* asking how we, collectively, should arrive at a moral system. (That is a matter covered in most undergrad degrees in ethics or philosophy.) Instead, the questioner was asking "Why should I care about adhering to *any* moral system that society embraces?" The question is acute. In the absence of acknowledging a transcendent (whatever its nature), it is perfectly rational to respond to the question by saying: "I need not care society's morality. Let the plebs eat cake. Let others be moral. I will be above their morality. I will do what is good for me, even if that entails a pretence that I embrace their morality." Such egoism is so deeply embedded in our human nature that even religious people yield to it. How much more would it not be manifested in an atheistic Dawkinsonian future. It seems inevitable that intelligent rational people will drift towards such a pole. Indeed, many in our secularist society already do so: Trump, Putin, Xi, Ayn Rand, Hitler, Nietzsche, etc. Dawkins disappointingly evaded the question. Instead, he gave a rambling non-answer and spoke about seeking a moral system that maximally benefits society.
I don't think you understood what Dawkins meant. From what I understand, what he says is - you SHOULD care about adhering to a moral system that society embraces exactly because it would result in a more pleasant society for everyone to live in. Of course you could make gains by doing selfish things and so on, but generally that wouldn't be an optimal long term strategy. Therefore, in simple terms, you would want to be moral and live in a moral society because it benefits you and everybody else (morality out of egoism in some sense).
@@DownTheBarrelOfaGun Thanks for your response. I understand the point you make. I do not recall whether or not Dawkins quite made it, but I accept that he probably meant it. Your point (and his) hinges on an assumption: that people would buy into the "morality out of egoism" logic that you articulate. Clearly that logic works in a general sense. However, in each particular choice-point in my life, the question would still arise: "Can I get away with it [ie the immoral choice]?" At that immediate point, the main incentive to remain moral would be fear of being caught out and/or "love" for the people who would be harmed. The atheist is not subject to the same constraints the theist: that God sees and will/may punish (a retrograde notion of God in my view), or that my immoral choice would be discordant with the love relationship God has with me and the rest of creation. I accept that you could maximise compliant behaviour of the masses in a secularist society by mass pressure and indoctrination, such as in China or North Korea. However, the incentive for good behaviour diminishes in proportion to the power of the individual. We see this all over. The rich and powerful who are not constrained by a belief in some transcendent entity, tend to become a law unto themselves. Well intentioned secularists in the West who advocate for a God-free society seem blind to this. They assume that the Judeo-Christian moral structures they have inherited will endure into a future secularist society even though the institutions that have engendered these moral structures will have fizzled away. I think this is unlikely.
(1) You presume a religious monopoly on morality. (2) Your concept of humanity as innately wicked and incapable of peaceful coexistence is rooted in Christian mythology. (3) The bible itself is an immoral book written by primitive barbarians who were a half-step above cavemen. "If you think that Christianity is the most direct and undefiled expression of love and compassion the world has ever seen, you do not know much about the world's other religions... If you think that it would be impossible to improve upon the Ten Commandments as a statement of morality, you really owe it to yourself to read some other scriptures. We need look no further than the Jains: Mahavira, the Jain patriarch, surpassed the morality of the Bible with a single sentence: 'Do not injure, abuse, oppress, enslave, insult, torment, torture, or kill any creature or living being.' Imagine how different our world might be if the Bible contained this as its central precept." (Excerpt from"Letter to a Christian Nation" by Sam Harris)
@@woodygilson3465 Hi. Thanks for expressing your thoughts. I think you misclassify me as a fundamentalist evangelical or conservative Catholic. I am neither. I am a pretty liberal Catholic. So: (1) I do not presume a religious monopoly on morality. I argue that without a loyalty to a transcendent there is no rational reason to commit to a moral action, when you perceive it to work against your self-interest. (2) Humanity is not innately wicked. Humanity is the product of an evolutionary process that endows us with various attributes suitable for thriving as small groups of nomadic families: aggression, territorial behaviour; tribal loyalty; selfishness, etc. These attributes are no longer helpful now that our species has become so successful that there are 8 billion of us on the planet. Various moral systems merely seek to contain our primitive attributes so that we may continue to thrive as a species. (3) I almost agree with you about the bible, but not quite. It is diverse library of documents recording the spiritual insights of our forebearers who were indeed primitive, some of them more barbaric than others. Some of the bible is interesting, some of it horrific, some of it deeply insightful into human nature.
3:22 “science can tell us about the origin of life…” (and religion can tell us about the purpose) Rabbi Sacks says. But recently i’ve found scientist/philosopher Bernardo Kastrup interesting. he says science tell us what nature *does and philosophy (or religion i suppose) can develop or decipher a meaning or purpose to life, or tell us what nature *is. my point being that my understanding is that exactly how life originated is likely out of the realm of science, and perhaps can be dealt with by philosophy or religion. it’s like science can’t exactly pinpoint the moment of the big bang, but have pretty good scientific ideas on what things were like just prior to the actual moment - which, btw, it seems more and more (theoretical physicists etc.) are now thinking in terms of the big bang as not being “the beginning” of everything.
The Big Bang Theory makes no claims as to the origins or the cause of the universe, and anyone who says that argues that it does is strawmanning. It only outlines that the universe was at one point, concentrated in one location and them expanded rapidly. Science may never be able to demonstrate why it occurred, or what existed before (as time did not exist until just after the initial expansion). However, religion and philosophy provide NO mechanism to determine the same, and therefore CANNOT even begin to provide justified answers to these questions. They can speculate, but that in no way rationalises belief. The correct answer, therefore, is 'we don't know."
@@JohnnyJackson746 “Not necessarily. While some scientific discoveries may seem to contradict certain religious beliefs, many people find ways to reconcile science and religion in their own lives. Science focuses on empirical evidence and natural laws, while religion explores moral and spiritual questions. Some see science as explaining "how" the world works, while religion addresses "why" and "what it means". However, there are also instances where scientific findings challenge specific religious interpretations, and vice versa. Ultimately, the relationship between science and religion is complex and depends on individual perspectives and interpretations.”
{The ones who follow the Messenger, the unlettered Prophet, whose description they find in their Torah and the Gospel. He commands them to do good and forbids them from evil, permits for them what is lawful and forbids to them what is impure, and relieves them from their burdens and the shackles that bound them. Those who believe in him, honour and support him, and follow the light sent down to him will be successful. Say, “O humanity, I am God's Messenger to you all. To Him belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth. There is no god except Him. He gives life and causes death.” So believe in God and His Messenger, the unlettered Prophet, who believes in God and His revelations. And follow him, so you may be guided.}
Anthony Flew is considered one of the most prominent atheists, so he retracted his atheism and ،told us that the universe has a deity with modern scientific evidence, not with thought or dreams and feeling, but after science and modern discoveries about the existence of a Creator. He fell into another problem that the Creator wanted according to his mood He wanted the Creator to be neither speaking nor hearing, and creating creation in vain But it is logical that this Creator sends a messenger to teach us who he is. And we have to verify the authenticity of the Messenger and what this Messenger calls to? It transports sperm from the liquid state to the eyes, heart, blood, arteries, and bones. Unconscious nature creates a conscious human being. Then this nature teaches about the importance of the heart and lung, then puts the rib cage, then oxygen, then water, there is sexual desire, and there are the genitals to complete the male and female sexual process. , What coincidence are you talking about, a coincidence that creates the male and the female. All of these are called verses and there are things that complement each other, there is a lung and there is air and there are teeth and stomach and in food and other things and we say that it has no creator!!! The only question God will ask you is focus on it ((He said: Did you deny My verses and did not encompass them in knowledge, or what did you do?)) I mean, God Almighty tells you what I told you is a lie and you cannot realize it or understand it And what in the world have you been doing? Do you know what your answer is? ((The decree will befall them for what they did wrong, and they will not be able to speak.

I love it when the "faithful" talk about evidence. Of course there is no evidence. Faith by definition has nothing to do with evidence. Just believe, because an ancient book says so.
The initial argument from the Jewish guy citing the high number from his religion winning awards in science etc has zilch to do with his religion and all to do with their more privileged upbringing or personal brilliance in their field.
Great debate. I agree children should be raised to think and question for themselves. One of the key psycho-social pages of development is that adolescents will examine their parents world view, compare those with others in the world and then decide what his/her views/beliefs are. Unfortunately most religions do not allow this because of the faith element.
Not allowing their children to learn the truth of reality shows the parents already deep down in side know their religion is False. Willful ignorance is NOT FAITH. Faith is the excuse used for willful ignorance.
Your second sentence sounds very jewish. During the Passover supper, for instance, the youngest child at the table must ask the four questions. Only, a religion is not a point of view, but a general view, a system of thinking and behavior, therefore, training is required.
@@micvili7527 He said something that is a way of describing the G-d of the "Old Testament" that creates a monster and the 1700 years of creating Jews as monsters that followed from that were very real and brustal If a way of describing a belief system has caused enduring slaughter it's surely a bit of a problem that instead of Dawkins being even briefly to consider his description was exactly one that there is a term for because it justified our whole slaughter century. I believe Dawkins is not ignorant enough of history to find it credible he did not know that by casting what is the samee G-d as a monster he was replicating the thinking of Xian slaughters of Jews and Muslims. Rabbi Sacks btw is not "the jew" He was in his time a formidable thinker and surely rates a name beyond "the jew:. You accord Dawkins thaat dignity
I gotta say, the moderator interrupts a little too much... I know it's her job to keep the structure and pace, but it's a bit annoying at times. Good debate though.
It is one thing to argue against God's existence; it is quite another thing to argue against a systematic religion. All of Prof. Dawkins' arguments in this debate are anti-religious arguments dressed as anti-theistic arguments. That is a fallacious extrapolation. Even if all systematic religions can be proven to be false, none of those proofs would amount to an argument against God's existence. One can argue against this or that religion, or, case in point, all of them, only if one has an argument against God's existence. Otherwise, all such arguments are moot. As far as I know, neither Prof. Dawkins has an anti-theistic argument, nor did he ever attempt one. And that is the reason, I think, behind his dogged refusal to debate Prof. William Craig, who has a series of deistic arguments, warts and all. Not, as Prof. Dawkins once put it, "because he [Prof. Craig] is a professional debater."
And for the record, all throughout The God Delusion, as well as other writings and public debates, Dawkins has made a vast array of arguments against theistic assertions, including the existence of any deity.
@@roymelamed2771 This is not a debate, as Dawkins himself stated when asked by Craig: "I [Dawkinks] do not consider this to be a debate." There was some mixup as Craig was not informed of Dawkins' participation; nor, I think, Dawkins knew of Craig's participation. Get your facts straight.
@@dr.edwardfreeman Dawkins has attacked both religion and theism. There's not much he *hasn't* touched on, because I think we can both agree that Dawkins has written/talked about this subject ad nauseam.
The rabbi confused me with his logic. He says the way to read the old testament is to look at the stuff proven to be wrong as symbolic but the stuff yet to be proven wrong as literal. It should be symbolic until proven literal right?
It’s that the Torah has room to be interpreted in more non-literal manners *if* and only *if* significant scientific evidence says otherwise. This idea itself is even controversial and it’s very nuanced and a case by case thing.
@User-h3n7x no nuance there, you are saying the same thing. If proven false, take not literal interpretation. Should be non literal until proven literal. I stand by that and don't submit to sophistry.
@@dewiwilliams4821 No- it shouldn’t be the case. It should be taken as literal until shown otherwise in someway. A plain reading of the text makes it literal and a perusing of rabbinic sources would should you that most (some don’t) take it literally. The reason you should take it literally until given reason not to is because the text is given as literal with the caveat that if philosophical truths or scientific proofs contradict it, it can be reinterpreted in light of them. This idea is controversially expressed by Maimonides when he’s talking about whether the universe is eternal or not. This makes much sense if you think about it, and what you’re saying doesn’t make any sense. Just because certain things (this principle is pretty much just applied to Genesis) can be reinterpreted based on contradictory proof doesn’t mean that you can just assume it’s 𝐚𝐥𝐥 non-literal. The text is given as literal.
Now I don’t actually hold of this idea, but I do disagree that it should be the opposite, like you said. Especially when the 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐥𝐞 is only formulated this way.
@User-h3n7x thanks for the clarification, I do see the difference between reading it as literal and reading as truth so I see the point you were making now.
@@dewiwilliams4821 no problem, I’m glad you understand my point

There shouldn't be a need for a discussion... religion is bullshit made up to control people and to keep them simple minded.

@@davidstaffell I don’t think anyone is trying to change their opponents mind. I think both sides realise they may learn something from the other, and both sides have the humility to respect someone with different views. That’s actually quite hard to do, as it requires, intelligence, maturity, and humility. No one has the right to change another’s mind, that is just arrogance.

{Then when the boy reached the age to work with him, Abraham said, “O my dear son, I have seen in a dream that I sacrifice you. So tell me what you think.” He replied, “O my dear father, Do as you are commanded. God willing, you will find me steadfast.”
Then when they submitted, and Abraham laid him on the side of his forehead,
We called out to him, “O Abraham,
You have already fulfilled the vision.” Indeed, this is how We reward the good-doers.
That was truly a revealing test.
And We ransomed his son with a great sacrifice
and blessed Abraham among later generations.
Peace be upon Abraham.
This is how We reward the good-doers.
He was truly one of Our faithful servants.
We gave him good news of Isaac, a prophet, and one of the righteous.
We blessed him, and Isaac as well. Some of their descendants did good, while others clearly wronged themselves.}
{Have they not realized that God, Who created the heavens and the earth, can re-create them? He has set for them a time, about which there is no doubt. But the wrongdoers persist in denial.
Say, “Even if you were to possess the treasuries of my Lord’s mercy, then you would certainly withhold, fearing they would run out, for humankind is ever stingy.”
We surely gave Moses nine clear signs. Ask the Children of Israel. When Moses came to them, Pharaoh said to him, “I really think that you, O Moses, is bewitched.”
Moses replied, “You know well that none has sent these down except the Lord of the heavens and the earth as insights. And I really think that you, O Pharaoh, is doomed.”
So Pharaoh wanted to scare the Israelites out of the land, but We drowned him and all of those with him.
And We said to the Children of Israel after Pharaoh, “Reside in the land, but when the promise of the Hereafter comes to pass, We will bring you all together.”}

how beautiful to see "intelligence over emotions" debate! So nice!
As a person born of Jewish parents raised in a conflicted Jewish environment, my grasp of Christopher Hitchens, Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris has changed dramatically my sense of freedom. My childhood experiences with the mannerisms of rabbinical leaders such as Rabbi Sacks, their stories and persuasive descriptions, always turned me off as people filled with their own righteousness, guaranteed by their ego and gods approval.
My experience is that there are no more egotistical and abusive people than Atheists. Atheists killed over 100 Million people in the 20th century alone with their "we know how to rule over people and religion is poison claims". The freedoms Americans have came from Christian ministers using the teachings of Jesus the Jew. There are no more generous people than Jews and certain Christian organizations like the Mormons. Tell what Atheist groups have given? Humm death and destruction!
@@JD-ev1uj Now there’s that Holier Than Thou attitude I was looking for! Are you so full of yourself or is that the light of the lord that gives you that shine from above?? What a stupid reply.
@@JD-ev1uj can you not see the implicit bias that your ape brain is playing on you? You have a greater view of human existence than there actually is
My take-away here (and I don't believe I'm alone) is that Rabbi Sacks is simply the latest example of how much Religion has conceded in the last half century. If Hitch was here he'd say "Rabbi Sacks, you're getting closer and closer to the truth every day!"
You are, also, conflicted, like your parents. So was the biblical Job. You are, also, a Jew. It’s good. You always know what you are. You belong. Mazel tov!
I met a man in wheelchair ramdomly yesterday and he told me he suffers from post traumatic syndrome due to been a victim of abuse by catholic priest when he was a young boy. The court case is still ongoing.
Just saying.
Thanks you for sharing. I hope the priest is brought to justice for what he did to you.
So you can see that people can abuse their position, as unfortunately happens everywhere.
Blaming a religion makes no sense, people without religion who do the same in a different position of power.
Religion has precepts, but they are rarely followed by people and can also be abused.
Dawkins prefers to blame religion for all the misery because he is an atheist, but he forgets that people themselves cause all the misery.
@@heinpereboom5521 He probably does not need to blame Religion to show that religion itself is man-made construct inspired by the idea of a a super natural being.
What is your point????
This particular Rabbi is a master of deflection, goalpost moving, false analogies, burden-shifting, circular reasoning and unsubstantiated assertions. I didn’t hear him make a single argument - and I’m being generous in using that word - that couldn’t be easily debunked. Thus his relentless condescension, frequent interruptions and impugning of motive. The muddier the field, the more difficult it is to evaluate what’s happening.

After thousands of years of religion it is not phased out overnight even if it is completely wrong
Thousands of religions have in deed “phased out” and many of them indeed “overnight “ … usually through the violent demise of all its adherents by the hand of other delusional exigencies. The set of religions available today are a function of chance and violence.
Judaism is not 'completely wrong'. Though it's not a 'religion', it's a relationship with G-d. 'Religions' give payoffs. Judaism has none.

The rabbi was rude and constantly interrupting, which is what people do when they are advancing weak arguments. There is zero evidence that the ancient Jews were ever held in bondage in Egypt or that one or two million people walked around in circles for forty years in the Sinai peninsula.
THis is one of those arguments that people just repeat and eventually people believe it "There's no evidence for the exodus there's no evidence for the exodus" its a false narrative. There is plenty of evidence you just have to look past a simple google search. Plenty of Academic papers by respected academics on it.

@@BobDingus-bh3pd Thats how the idea of there being a god sounds to us though. A cosmic spy camera guy in the sky is just the same as a talking puddle, or raising the dead, or turning water into wine, or making 1 fish into hundreds. its all equally impossible. the only thing that exists is the natural world, people try so hard to define nothing but it can never exist, its why its called nothing. christians struggle with before the big bang because most human brains are limited by constructs, we arent.
To admit that one is ignorant of a long-persisting pattern of human belief from the history of one's own culture and then in the next breath, claim the entirety of a concept emerged from one's own individual thinking (as if one is not a social animal, who grew up and learned by mimicking those around him), reminds me of that cartoon about the fish who, when asked about the temperature of the water that day, replies "What water?" Human beings (particularly young ones) are often susceptible to the conceit that our most cherished perceptions of reality and theories as to its nature are unique and products of our own individual genius. The older I get, the more it becomes apparent to me how very "normal" I am . . . at least in terms of the core characteristics that make me a human being . . . and only human, at that.
Very well said. I was thinking much the same.
@@tubapracticelog9618 agreed - very well said.
I am often struck by the fact that intellect denying writers, like modern existentialists or postmoderns, write books using millions of words in carefully phrased logically consistent chapters trying to tell us that our words are meaningless. I find modern philosophy so stupid; as it claims incoherently. Ed Feser is a wonderful philosopher who woke up from the idiocy.
This is why we can only judge people on ACT, and not abstract moral laws. I think his point was, children are taught to judge others as being 'different' through abstract moral beliefs. Children understand truth at sight, they do not require lessons on morality - this is why religion is wrong, because it teaches a moral law, which always results in judging others and condemning those who are 'immoral' in their eyes. Moral good and moral evil are the same thing because because morality itself is the problem.
A perfect response, l think pretty much the same way too. Lets hope the herd will keep waking up.
Thank you, Dr. Dawkins.
Anthony Flew is considered one of the most prominent atheists, so he retracted his atheism and ،told us that the universe has a deity with modern scientific evidence, not with thought or dreams and feeling, but after science and modern discoveries about the existence of a Creator. He fell into another problem that the Creator wanted according to his mood
He wanted the Creator to be neither speaking nor hearing, and creating creation in vain
But it is logical that this Creator sends a messenger to teach us who he is. And we have to verify the authenticity of the Messenger and what this Messenger calls to?
It transports sperm from the liquid state to the eyes, heart, blood, arteries, and bones. Unconscious nature creates a conscious human being. Then this nature teaches about the importance of the heart and lung, then puts the rib cage, then oxygen, then water, there is sexual desire, and there are the genitals to complete the male and female sexual process. , What coincidence are you talking about, a coincidence that creates the male and the female. All of these are called verses and there are things that complement each other, there is a lung and there is air and there are teeth and stomach and in food and other things and we say that it has no creator!!!
The only question God will ask you is
focus on it
((He said: Did you deny My verses and did not encompass them in knowledge, or what did you do?))

Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, is a prophet from the Creator, and before him many prophets did not lie or deceive, and he is the only religion that commands you to worship one Creator who created everything.
First of all, you should know that the religion of all prophets is the worship of one Creator who created everything. Islam today is the only religion that commands you to worship one Creator and not idols, illusions, conjecture or a number of gods. But how do we know that the speech is from God and not from Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace? . These are some of the things that comfort your heart and believe that this is a prophet and many of the prophets before him
The Almighty said: (Moreover He comprehended in His design the sky, and it had been (as) smoke)
The smoke confirms that the origin of this universe is inflamed. It is not a lake of water, as was the perception of all philosophies and religions that are based on illusion. This is one of the postulates of modern science today that the sky is condensation of smoke. This fact converted the French scientist Maurice to Islam and wrote a book entitled the Holy Qur’an on the scale of modern science
How did Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, know this fact before?
The Almighty says: ((And the heaven We constructed))
The sky is a building, not a vacuum as it was thought, and this was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2017 that proved it

The Almighty’s saying: ((And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander.
)).
That is, the sky expands with time. This fact, even in the time of Einstein, was not imagined by anyone and it was proven. And Einstein admitted it and admitted that it was the biggest scientific mistake he made in his life if he believed that the sky was fixed. The Qur’an before Einstein says that the sky expands

)).
The verse of the night is the moon and the verse of the day is the sun. The Qur'an tells that the sun and the moon were fiery masses. That is, the moon was a fiery mass and was erased, and the verse of the day remained visible to the eyes. Was the moon a fiery mass and extinguished? This is one of the biggest scientific issues discovered about the moon. The moon was already a fiery mass, and NASA issued on its official website a conceptual clip entitled The Evolution of the Moon in the video. In fact, the moon was a fiery mass like the sun, and this is what the Qur’an told about and the truth of modern science.

And the infidels of Quraish had previously accused our master Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, of madness, and it is likely that their joy was overwhelming when this verse was revealed.
They also found in it, according to their claim, evidence of this madness, and they told the people: How can you believe this man who says that these fixed mountains move like clouds moving in the sky!
And today it is proven that the earth rotates, and with it the mountains, how did Muhammad know that and why is he telling you instead of the matter that makes people consider him crazy? The matter was not from him, but from God.

Or (the Unbelievers' state) is like the depths of darkness in a vast deep ocean, overwhelmed with billow topped by billow, topped by (dark) clouds: depths of darkness, one above another: if a man stretches out his hands, he can hardly see it! for any to whom Allah giveth not light, there is no light!
Modern sciences have revealed that in the bottom of the deep seas with abundant water - the deep sea - there is great darkness, to the extent that living creatures live in this darkness without visual tools, but live using their other senses such as hearing.
These dark darknesses are not found in the sea water that surrounds the Arabian Peninsula, but rather they have been discovered in the oceans far from it
This verse shows another aspect of the Qur’anic miracle, which is that the sea wave that all people only knew was one wave in the seas
The verse says there is another wave in the depths of the sea, and divers discovered at the beginning of the twentieth century a fact that was hidden in the depths of the sea, that fact that shows another wave that throws divers into it as it is thrown at swimmers, and this wave was discovered by Scandinavian divers.
I will tell you what the Prophet said. The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: One day the Bedouins who live in the desert will build tall towers, and this is my duty. Go and see where the
tallest buildings are and who owns them.
God Almighty: ((We will show them Our signs in the horizons and within themselves until it becomes clear to them that it is the truth. But is it not sufficient concerning your Lord that He is, over all things, a Witness?)
And God informed the Qur’an of this by saying: “Did you think that we created you without a purpose and that you would never return to us?”
All these and other matters that I have not mentioned indicate that this is a prophet from God..More important than that, as I told you, is the only religion that commands you to worship one Creator, who created everything and before him many prophets
Say, if you wish, there is no god but God, and that Muhammad is the Messenger of God

@@MohammedSaeed-u3sdon’t worry that rabbi is already in heaven as for Richard Dawkins is not for sure
What we should all remember, as a foundation for this debate, is that Aristotle’s physics, with its teleological principle, held back the advancement of empirical and mathematical physics for perhaps 1,700 years. His physics were absolutely convincing and were held as dogma by Church theologians, but it turns out they were simply wrong. This goes to support Dawkins’ first statement that the question of “why” should be left out of hard science.
One cannot ever leave the "why" out of hard science - and, whether he realizes it or not, Dawkins doesn't either.
The "why" is the fundamental question as to why anything is the way it is at all. It's the fundamental principle, the granting of that which can't be explained behind *any* scientific theory. In the entire history of science, there is not one single exception to this. None whatsoever.
For Dawkins it's the presumption that spacetime itself is fundamental and that what we refer to as "physical objects" actually exist whether they're observed or not. FWIW, modern science has *deeply* troubling results for Dawkins that not only threaten, but clearly cut out the legs behind both his presumptions, but that's another beast entirely.
For a theist it's that there is an intelligent mind behind the clearly defined and rule-based system of that which we call physical reality. That mind cannot be explained - only that it exists as the one granted miracle that explains everything else as a result.
What is the theological reading of Aristotle's physics? That is an oxymoron 😂

Nothing creates something
Are you 100% sure of not having a creator?
Go and see what religion commands you to worship. One Creator created everything, no three, no more, no less, but one. Go and see for yourself, you will find only one religion
But I will remind you of something you may have forgotten. And I want you to think about it. You are here in this world against your will. Just think a little bit that you are not here. By your own choice. You are here by choice.Choose to be here.He is one and you will go. See who commands you to worship one Creator, and you will find one religion, which is the religion of the prophets, and that is Islam. The matter is not easy, the matter is great in this existence, because whoever is able to bring you into this world against your will, after death, will either find you in grace and beauty that you have not seen, or torment and fear. which you have not seen.
Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, is a prophet from the Creator, and before him many prophets did not lie or deceive, and he is the only religion that commands you to worship one Creator who created everything.
First of all, you should know that the religion of all prophets is the worship of one Creator who created everything. Islam today is the only religion that commands you to worship one Creator and not idols, illusions, conjecture or a number of gods. But how do we know that the speech is from God and not from Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace? . These are some of the things that comfort your heart and believe that this is a prophet and many of the prophets before him
This evidence appears generation after generation. The generation that lived with the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, witnessed miracles, and I collected for you what this generation has. in which we live
The Almighty said: (Moreover He comprehended in His design the sky, and it had been (as) smoke)
The smoke confirms that the origin of this universe is inflamed. It is not a lake of water, as was the perception of all philosophies and religions that are based on illusion. This is one of the postulates of modern science today that the sky is condensation of smoke. This fact converted the French scientist Maurice to Islam and wrote a book entitled the Holy Qur’an on the scale of modern science
How did Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, know this fact before?
The Almighty says: ((And the heaven We constructed))
The sky is a building, not a vacuum as it was thought, and this was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2017 that proved it
How did Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, know this fact before?
The Almighty’s saying: ((And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander.
)).
That is, the sky expands with time. This fact, even in the time of Einstein, was not imagined by anyone and it was proven. And Einstein admitted it and admitted that it was the biggest scientific mistake he made in his life if he believed that the sky was fixed. The Qur’an before Einstein says that the sky expands

Almighty’s saying: :((And We have made the night and day two signs, and We erased the sign of the night and made the sign of the day visible that you may seek bounty from your Lord and may know the number of years and the account [of time]. And everything We have set out in detail.
)).
The verse of the night is the moon and the verse of the day is the sun. The Qur'an tells that the sun and the moon were fiery masses. That is, the moon was a fiery mass and was erased, and the verse of the day remained visible to the eyes. Was the moon a fiery mass and extinguished? This is one of the biggest scientific issues discovered about the moon. The moon was already a fiery mass, and NASA issued on its official website a conceptual clip entitled The Evolution of the Moon in the video. In fact, the moon was a fiery mass like the sun, and this is what the Qur’an told about and the truth of modern science.
How did Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, know this fact before?
Almighty’s saying
And you see the mountains thinking that they are rigid, while you will cross as the passage of clouds. [It is] the work of God who has perfected everything. In fact, he knows what you're doing.))
And the verse clearly spoke of a strange phenomenon, which is that the viewer of the mountains appears to him still, that is, they are still, but in fact they are not like that, rather they are in a state of constant movement. And the infidels of Quraish had previously accused our master Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, of madness, and it is likely that their joy was overwhelming when this verse was revealed.
They also found in it, according to their claim, evidence of this madness, and they told the people: How can you believe this man who says that these fixed mountains move like clouds moving in the sky!
And today it is proven that the earth rotates, and with it the mountains, how did Muhammad know that and why is he telling you instead of the matter that makes people consider him crazy? The matter was not from him, but from God.

Almighty’s saying
Or (the Unbelievers' state) is like the depths of darkness in a vast deep ocean, overwhelmed with billow topped by billow, topped by (dark) clouds: depths of darkness, one above another: if a man stretches out his hands, he can hardly see it! for any to whom Allah giveth not light, there is no light!
Modern sciences have revealed that in the bottom of the deep seas with abundant water - the deep sea - there is great darkness, to the extent that living creatures live in this darkness without visual tools, but live using their other senses such as hearing.
These dark darknesses are not found in the sea water that surrounds the Arabian Peninsula, but rather they have been discovered in the oceans far from it
This verse shows another aspect of the Qur’anic miracle, which is that the sea wave that all people only knew was one wave in the seas
The verse says there is another wave in the depths of the sea, and divers discovered at the beginning of the twentieth century a fact that was hidden in the depths of the sea, that fact that shows another wave that throws divers into it as it is thrown at swimmers, and this wave was discovered by Scandinavian divers.
.I will tell you what the Prophet said. The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: One day the Bedouins who live in the desert will build tall towers, and this is my duty. Go and see where the
tallest buildings are and who owns them.
God Almighty: ((We will show them Our signs in the horizons and within themselves until it becomes clear to them that it is the truth. But is it not sufficient concerning your Lord that He is, over all things, a Witness?)
And God informed the Qur’an of this by saying: “Did you think that we created you without a purpose and that you would never return to us?”
All these and other matters that I have not mentioned indicate that this is a prophet from God..More important than that, as I told you, is the only religion that commands you to worship one Creator, who created everything and before him many prophets
Say, if you wish, there is no god but God, and that Muhammad is the Messenger of God

Consciousness is the substratum of reality. It has no beginning nor end and is not conditional on material receivers.
I would love to see a debate between professor Walter Veith and Richard Dawkins...for those of you that don't know Walter please check his numerous videos...for this conversation I would recommend "Genesis conflict"...a scientific view of reality and the evidence that it presents when looking at the totality of what we now know.
where's the rest of it?!!??
Accusing Dawkins of antisemitism is outrageous.
Challenging arguments can be valuable as it encourages expansion of mind. Faith enhances belief, " ask questions , teach children to think for themselves, critique. " Thank you Richard Dawkins and the late lord Rabbi Sacks. 🕯

Anthony Flew is considered one of the most prominent atheists, so he retracted his atheism and ،told us that the universe has a deity with modern scientific evidence, not with thought or dreams and feeling, but after science and modern discoveries about the existence of a Creator. He fell into another problem that the Creator wanted according to his mood
He wanted the Creator to be neither speaking nor hearing, and creating creation in vain
But it is logical that this Creator sends a messenger to teach us who he is. And we have to verify the authenticity of the Messenger and what this Messenger calls to?
It transports sperm from the liquid state to the eyes, heart, blood, arteries, and bones. Unconscious nature creates a conscious human being. Then this nature teaches about the importance of the heart and lung, then puts the rib cage, then oxygen, then water, there is sexual desire, and there are the genitals to complete the male and female sexual process. , What coincidence are you talking about, a coincidence that creates the male and the female. All of these are called verses and there are things that complement each other, there is a lung and there is air and there are teeth and stomach and in food and other things and we say that it has no creator!!!
The only question God will ask you is
focus on it
((He said: Did you deny My verses and did not encompass them in knowledge, or what did you do?))
I mean, God Almighty tells you what I told you is a lie and you cannot realize it or understand it
And what in the world have you been doing?
Do you know what your answer is?
((The decree will befall them for what they did wrong, and they will not be able to speak.
If you find yourself in the world without a choice in a great reality we live in, and you go without a choice and a question is the most important

The verse says there is another wave in the depths of the sea, and divers discovered at the beginning of the twentieth century a fact that was hidden in the depths of the sea, that fact that shows another wave that throws divers into it as it is thrown at swimmers, and this wave was discovered by Scandinavian divers.
.I will tell you what the Prophet said. The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: One day the Bedouins who live in the desert will build tall towers, and this is my duty. Go and see where the
tallest buildings are and who owns them.
God Almighty: ((We will show them Our signs in the horizons and within themselves until it becomes clear to them that it is the truth. But is it not sufficient concerning your Lord that He is, over all things, a Witness?)
And God informed the Qur’an of this by saying: “Did you think that we created you without a purpose and that you would never return to us?”
All these and other matters that I have not mentioned indicate that this is a prophet from God..More important than that, as I told you, is the only religion that commands you to worship one Creator, who created everything and before him many prophets
Say, if you wish, there is no god but God, and that Muhammad is the Messenger of God

One of the best videos on TH-cam, outstanding
Yes I'll have to agree, although likely for a different reason.
This video perfectly demonstrates how easily people can be manipulated through vague, false and damaging claims or beliefs. Also it perfectly demonstrates how hard and sometimes dangerous it can be to try to expose such manipulative behaviour, because the offender wraps their nonsensical arguments in powerful sensations like hope and both positive and negative emotion. Questioning or challenging the authority or the authenticity of the offenders claims and beliefs may also be simply rejected by claiming the challenger is some sort of a human hater or evil (talking about blasphemy, or perfectly demonstrated in this video; to be accused of being antisemitic). Not too many decades ago, and likely even today in certain regions of the world, a guy like Hawkins would be murdered for his very legitimate and objective utterances - and a great number of people would concur. It's absolutely insane, and horrendous.
Personal belief in something greater seems a part of human nature to me, but that is completely different to the autoritarian or even totalitarian mass delusion that religion is.
18:55 Here’s your laugh of the day. “If a story in the Bible contradicts established science, then it’s a parable, otherwise it’s literal, and that’s how you tell the difference.” 😂
The only difference is time and the progress of science.
Why’s that a laugh?
@@JMBen Well, if you didn’t laugh, then “laugh” obviously isn’t meant literally. If you didn’t find it funny, then it was meant ironically all along.
@@KXSocialChannel
I understand you didn’t mean it literary, I understand you actually find the statement to be laughable, I’m asking why you think it’s laughable, or more literally, a dumb statement.
@@JMBen It’s funny because it’s a ridiculous line of logic. If I tell you that dark matter exists and it does, then I’m right, but if it doesn’t exist, then I was meaning for the statement to be artistic and for some other meaning to be gathered and you were never meant to take it literally as scientific fact.

Wow - the joke the rabbi told about "Are you a Catholic Jew or a Protestant Jew" was referencing page 194 of the Kindle version of "The God Delusion" - in the book the punchline used atheist in place of Jew.

I really wanted to hear the Rabbi's last answer but it cut off
Not sure I agree with the rabbi on one point - "Ein Mikra Yotzeh Midi Pshuto - a rabbinic dictum: A verse always has to be understood literally. There are however ways to reconcile a literal Adam and Eve with evolution.
@@michebb8330 The G"ra admonished the Rambam for allegorizing Talmudic stories:
לפרש הגמרא הכל בדרך הלציי ולעקור אותם מפשטן וח" ו איני מאמין בהם ברוב לקחה

Certainly, he would have taken issue with anyone who dared to allegorize biblical narrative. The verse you cite is dissimilar to the creation narrative. The Pshat of the eagle verse was likely meant by God as a metaphor from the get-go. It's one isolated verse that He states to Moses in first person The creation narrative however is very different ... verse upon verse upon verse .... Rashi spends an enormous amount of time explaining things k'pshuto.

Hey there guys. I would like to make a transcription of this video in order to get more insight into the text (wanted to discuss it with GPT). Any ideas how to get the text (besides transcribing it manually, which i consider doing)
This creation, the structure of the universe, the
foods, the tongue that tastes, the teeth that grind, the stomach that digests, the excretion of waste from the body, oxygen, the lungs, the eyes, the sexual desire and many other things, this does not indicate anything. Are you 100% sure of not having a creator?
Rivers and seas and the creatures in them and the rain that sows the earth beyond
It is very with lots of fruits
Nothing creates something
Are you 100% sure of not having a creator?
Go and see what religion commands you to worship. One Creator created everything, no three, no more, no less, but one. Go and see for yourself, you will find only one religion
But I will remind you of something you may have forgotten. And I want you to think about it. You are here in this world against your will. Just think a little bit that you are not here. By your own choice. You are here by choice.Choose to be here.He is one and you will go. See who commands you to worship one Creator, and you will find one religion, which is the religion of the prophets, and that is Islam. The matter is not easy, the matter is great in this existence, because whoever is able to bring you into this world against your will, after death, will either find you in grace and beauty that you have not seen, or torment and fear. which you have not seen.
Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, is a prophet from the Creator, and before him many prophets did not lie or deceive, and he is the only religion that commands you to worship one Creator who created everything.
First of all, you should know that the religion of all prophets is the worship of one Creator who created everything. Islam today is the only religion that commands you to worship one Creator and not idols, illusions, conjecture or a number of gods. But how do we know that the speech is from God and not from Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace? . These are some of the things that comfort your heart and believe that this is a prophet and many of the prophets before him
This evidence appears generation after generation. The generation that lived with the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, witnessed miracles, and I collected for you what this generation has. in which we live
The Almighty said: (Moreover He comprehended in His design the sky, and it had been (as) smoke)
The smoke confirms that the origin of this universe is inflamed. It is not a lake of water, as was the perception of all philosophies and religions that are based on illusion. This is one of the postulates of modern science today that the sky is condensation of smoke. This fact converted the French scientist Maurice to Islam and wrote a book entitled the Holy Qur’an on the scale of modern science
How did Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, know this fact before?
The Almighty says: ((And the heaven We constructed))
The sky is a building, not a vacuum as it was thought, and this was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2017 that proved it
How did Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, know this fact before?
The Almighty’s saying: ((And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander.
)).
That is, the sky expands with time. This fact, even in the time of Einstein, was not imagined by anyone and it was proven. And Einstein admitted it and admitted that it was the biggest scientific mistake he made in his life if he believed that the sky was fixed. The Qur’an before Einstein says that the sky expands
fact
Almighty’s saying: :((And We have made the night and day two signs, and We erased the sign of the night and made the sign of the day visible that you may seek bounty from your Lord and may know the number of years and the account [of time]. And everything We have set out in detail.
)).
The verse of the night is the moon and the verse of the day is the sun. The Qur'an tells that the sun and the moon were fiery masses. That is, the moon was a fiery mass and was erased, and the verse of the day remained visible to the eyes. Was the moon a fiery mass and extinguished? This is one of the biggest scientific issues discovered about the moon. The moon was already a fiery mass, and NASA issued on its official website a conceptual clip entitled The Evolution of the Moon in the video. In fact, the moon was a fiery mass like the sun, and this is what the Qur’an told about and the truth of modern science.
How did Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, know this fact before?
Almighty’s saying
And you see the mountains thinking that they are rigid, while you will cross as the passage of clouds. [It is] the work of God who has perfected everything. In fact, he knows what you're doing.))
And the verse clearly spoke of a strange phenomenon, which is that the viewer of the mountains appears to him still, that is, they are still, but in fact they are not like that, rather they are in a state of constant movement. And the infidels of Quraish had previously accused our master Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, of madness, and it is likely that their joy was overwhelming when this verse was revealed.
They also found in it, according to their claim, evidence of this madness, and they told the people: How can you believe this man who says that these fixed mountains move like clouds moving in the sky!
And today it is proven that the earth rotates, and with it the mountains, how did Muhammad know that and why is he telling you instead of the matter that makes people consider him crazy? The matter was not from him, but from God.
.
Almighty’s saying
Those whom Allah (in His plan) willeth to guide,- He openeth their breast to Islam; those whom He willeth to leave straying,- He maketh their breast close and constricted, as if they had to climb up to the skies: thus doth Allah (heap) the penalty on those who refuse to believe)).
After man was able to reach the sky by flying by modern means of transportation, he knew that the higher up in the air, the less oxygen and atmospheric pressure, which causes severe tightness in the chests and the process of breathing. :
How did Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, know this fact before? It was not from him, but from God
Almighty’s saying
Or (the Unbelievers' state) is like the depths of darkness in a vast deep ocean, overwhelmed with billow topped by billow, topped by (dark) clouds: depths of darkness, one above another: if a man stretches out his hands, he can hardly see it! for any to whom Allah giveth not light, there is no light!
Modern sciences have revealed that in the bottom of the deep seas with abundant water - the deep sea - there is great darkness, to the extent that living creatures live in this darkness without visual tools, but live using their other senses such as hearing.
These dark darknesses are not found in the sea water that surrounds the Arabian Peninsula, but rather they have been discovered in the oceans far from it
This verse shows another aspect of the Qur’anic miracle, which is that the sea wave that all people only knew was one wave in the seas

Dear Rabbi,
you are a wise man and I have tremendous respect for you. However calling out the opening section of Chapter 2 in Dawkins’s book (God Delusion) as antisemitic is a bit cheap. If an ex Jew wrote that instead of Dawkins, you wouldn’t have said that. With that line of thinking, any criticism of the old testament could be labelled as antisemitic to stifle debate and discussion.

Thank you for this debate! You know ever since I found out about Judaism my relationship with G-d is nothing like how Mr Hawkins describes it. I don’t want to do good or bad because G-d will punish me or reward me and I know that does not prove that G-d exist however I think most people have a really wrong perspective of G-d in the sense that in reality when people want to learn about religion they only dive a little bit and if you go being biased then you will find what you’re looking for. When I started to learn about Judaism I went with mindset that I’m Christian and I just wanted to know some theological questions that have always bother me and the more I learned about Judaism the more I felt in love with it because In reality Judaism is not like any other religion but you really do have to go in with an open mind and there is so much learning that you have to do.

In what language is this guy on the right speaking?
The last questioner was *not* asking how we, collectively, should arrive at a moral system. (That is a matter covered in most undergrad degrees in ethics or philosophy.) Instead, the questioner was asking "Why should I care about adhering to *any* moral system that society embraces?"
The question is acute. In the absence of acknowledging a transcendent (whatever its nature), it is perfectly rational to respond to the question by saying: "I need not care society's morality. Let the plebs eat cake. Let others be moral. I will be above their morality. I will do what is good for me, even if that entails a pretence that I embrace their morality." Such egoism is so deeply embedded in our human nature that even religious people yield to it. How much more would it not be manifested in an atheistic Dawkinsonian future. It seems inevitable that intelligent rational people will drift towards such a pole. Indeed, many in our secularist society already do so: Trump, Putin, Xi, Ayn Rand, Hitler, Nietzsche, etc.
Dawkins disappointingly evaded the question. Instead, he gave a rambling non-answer and spoke about seeking a moral system that maximally benefits society.
I don't think you understood what Dawkins meant. From what I understand, what he says is - you SHOULD care about adhering to a moral system that society embraces exactly because it would result in a more pleasant society for everyone to live in. Of course you could make gains by doing selfish things and so on, but generally that wouldn't be an optimal long term strategy. Therefore, in simple terms, you would want to be moral and live in a moral society because it benefits you and everybody else (morality out of egoism in some sense).
@@DownTheBarrelOfaGun Thanks for your response. I understand the point you make. I do not recall whether or not Dawkins quite made it, but I accept that he probably meant it.
Your point (and his) hinges on an assumption: that people would buy into the "morality out of egoism" logic that you articulate. Clearly that logic works in a general sense. However, in each particular choice-point in my life, the question would still arise: "Can I get away with it [ie the immoral choice]?" At that immediate point, the main incentive to remain moral would be fear of being caught out and/or "love" for the people who would be harmed. The atheist is not subject to the same constraints the theist: that God sees and will/may punish (a retrograde notion of God in my view), or that my immoral choice would be discordant with the love relationship God has with me and the rest of creation.
I accept that you could maximise compliant behaviour of the masses in a secularist society by mass pressure and indoctrination, such as in China or North Korea. However, the incentive for good behaviour diminishes in proportion to the power of the individual. We see this all over. The rich and powerful who are not constrained by a belief in some transcendent entity, tend to become a law unto themselves. Well intentioned secularists in the West who advocate for a God-free society seem blind to this. They assume that the Judeo-Christian moral structures they have inherited will endure into a future secularist society even though the institutions that have engendered these moral structures will have fizzled away. I think this is unlikely.
Dawkins is astoundingly dumb and illiterate.
(1) You presume a religious monopoly on morality. (2) Your concept of humanity as innately wicked and incapable of peaceful coexistence is rooted in Christian mythology. (3) The bible itself is an immoral book written by primitive barbarians who were a half-step above cavemen.
"If you think that Christianity is the most direct and undefiled expression of love and compassion the world has ever seen, you do not know much about the world's other religions... If you think that it would be impossible to improve upon the Ten Commandments as a statement of morality, you really owe it to yourself to read some other scriptures. We need look no further than the Jains: Mahavira, the Jain patriarch, surpassed the morality of the Bible with a single sentence: 'Do not injure, abuse, oppress, enslave, insult, torment, torture, or kill any creature or living being.' Imagine how different our world might be if the Bible contained this as its central precept." (Excerpt from"Letter to a Christian Nation" by Sam Harris)
@@woodygilson3465 Hi. Thanks for expressing your thoughts. I think you misclassify me as a fundamentalist evangelical or conservative Catholic. I am neither. I am a pretty liberal Catholic. So:
(1) I do not presume a religious monopoly on morality. I argue that without a loyalty to a transcendent there is no rational reason to commit to a moral action, when you perceive it to work against your self-interest.
(2) Humanity is not innately wicked. Humanity is the product of an evolutionary process that endows us with various attributes suitable for thriving as small groups of nomadic families: aggression, territorial behaviour; tribal loyalty; selfishness, etc. These attributes are no longer helpful now that our species has become so successful that there are 8 billion of us on the planet. Various moral systems merely seek to contain our primitive attributes so that we may continue to thrive as a species.
(3) I almost agree with you about the bible, but not quite. It is diverse library of documents recording the spiritual insights of our forebearers who were indeed primitive, some of them more barbaric than others. Some of the bible is interesting, some of it horrific, some of it deeply insightful into human nature.
3:22 “science can tell us about the origin of life…” (and religion can tell us about the purpose) Rabbi Sacks says. But recently i’ve found scientist/philosopher Bernardo Kastrup interesting. he says science tell us what nature *does and philosophy (or religion i suppose) can develop or decipher a meaning or purpose to life, or tell us what nature *is. my point being that my understanding is that exactly how life originated is likely out of the realm of science, and perhaps can be dealt with by philosophy or religion.
it’s like science can’t exactly pinpoint the moment of the big bang, but have pretty good scientific ideas on what things were like just prior to the actual moment - which, btw, it seems more and more (theoretical physicists etc.) are now thinking in terms of the big bang as not being “the beginning” of everything.
The Big Bang Theory makes no claims as to the origins or the cause of the universe, and anyone who says that argues that it does is strawmanning. It only outlines that the universe was at one point, concentrated in one location and them expanded rapidly. Science may never be able to demonstrate why it occurred, or what existed before (as time did not exist until just after the initial expansion). However, religion and philosophy provide NO mechanism to determine the same, and therefore CANNOT even begin to provide justified answers to these questions. They can speculate, but that in no way rationalises belief. The correct answer, therefore, is 'we don't know."
@@brycehamilton4903 If you don't know the science, it's easier to just say nothing.
Of course every religious person believes that Religion tells us about the origin of life. Rabbi Sachs knew this, but capitulated here.
Science and religion contradict each other.
@@JohnnyJackson746 “Not necessarily. While some scientific discoveries may seem to contradict certain religious beliefs, many people find ways to reconcile science and religion in their own lives. Science focuses on empirical evidence and natural laws, while religion explores moral and spiritual questions. Some see science as explaining "how" the world works, while religion addresses "why" and "what it means". However, there are also instances where scientific findings challenge specific religious interpretations, and vice versa. Ultimately, the relationship between science and religion is complex and depends on individual perspectives and interpretations.”

So believe in God and His Messenger, the unlettered Prophet, who believes in God and His revelations. And follow him, so you may be guided.}

Here we go again with playing the antisemitic card in order to silence others.
Anthony Flew is considered one of the most prominent atheists, so he retracted his atheism and ،told us that the universe has a deity with modern scientific evidence, not with thought or dreams and feeling, but after science and modern discoveries about the existence of a Creator. He fell into another problem that the Creator wanted according to his mood
He wanted the Creator to be neither speaking nor hearing, and creating creation in vain
But it is logical that this Creator sends a messenger to teach us who he is. And we have to verify the authenticity of the Messenger and what this Messenger calls to?
It transports sperm from the liquid state to the eyes, heart, blood, arteries, and bones. Unconscious nature creates a conscious human being. Then this nature teaches about the importance of the heart and lung, then puts the rib cage, then oxygen, then water, there is sexual desire, and there are the genitals to complete the male and female sexual process. , What coincidence are you talking about, a coincidence that creates the male and the female. All of these are called verses and there are things that complement each other, there is a lung and there is air and there are teeth and stomach and in food and other things and we say that it has no creator!!!
The only question God will ask you is
focus on it
((He said: Did you deny My verses and did not encompass them in knowledge, or what did you do?))
I mean, God Almighty tells you what I told you is a lie and you cannot realize it or understand it
And what in the world have you been doing?
Do you know what your answer is?
((The decree will befall them for what they did wrong, and they will not be able to speak.
If you find yourself in the world without a choice in a great reality we live in, and you go without a choice and a question is the most important
If your destiny is fire, has God wronged you???ًً
Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, is a prophet from the Creator, and before him many prophets did not lie or deceive, and he is the only religion that commands you to worship one Creator who created everything.
First of all, you should know that the religion of all prophets is the worship of one Creator who created everything. Islam today is the only religion that commands you to worship one Creator and not idols, illusions, conjecture or a number of gods. But how do we know that the speech is from God and not from Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace? . These are some of the things that comfort your heart and believe that this is a prophet and many of the prophets before him
The Almighty said: (Moreover He comprehended in His design the sky, and it had been (as) smoke)
The smoke confirms that the origin of this universe is inflamed. It is not a lake of water, as was the perception of all philosophies and religions that are based on illusion. This is one of the postulates of modern science today that the sky is condensation of smoke. This fact converted the French scientist Maurice to Islam and wrote a book entitled the Holy Qur’an on the scale of modern science
How did Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, know this fact before?
The Almighty says: ((And the heaven We constructed))
The sky is a building, not a vacuum as it was thought, and this was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2017 that proved it
How did Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, know this fact before?
The Almighty’s saying: ((And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander.
)).
That is, the sky expands with time. This fact, even in the time of Einstein, was not imagined by anyone and it was proven. And Einstein admitted it and admitted that it was the biggest scientific mistake he made in his life if he believed that the sky was fixed. The Qur’an before Einstein says that the sky expands

Almighty’s saying: :((And We have made the night and day two signs, and We erased the sign of the night and made the sign of the day visible that you may seek bounty from your Lord and may know the number of years and the account [of time]. And everything We have set out in detail.
)).
The verse of the night is the moon and the verse of the day is the sun. The Qur'an tells that the sun and the moon were fiery masses. That is, the moon was a fiery mass and was erased, and the verse of the day remained visible to the eyes. Was the moon a fiery mass and extinguished? This is one of the biggest scientific issues discovered about the moon. The moon was already a fiery mass, and NASA issued on its official website a conceptual clip entitled The Evolution of the Moon in the video. In fact, the moon was a fiery mass like the sun, and this is what the Qur’an told about and the truth of modern science.
How did Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, know this fact before?

And you see the mountains thinking that they are rigid, while you will cross as the passage of clouds. [It is] the work of God who has perfected everything. In fact, he knows what you're doing.))
And the verse clearly spoke of a strange phenomenon, which is that the viewer of the mountains appears to him still, that is, they are still, but in fact they are not like that, rather they are in a state of constant movement. And the infidels of Quraish had previously accused our master Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, of madness, and it is likely that their joy was overwhelming when this verse was revealed.
They also found in it, according to their claim, evidence of this madness, and they told the people: How can you believe this man who says that these fixed mountains move like clouds moving in the sky!
And today it is proven that the earth rotates, and with it the mountains, how did Muhammad know that and why is he telling you instead of the matter that makes people consider him crazy? The matter was not from him, but from God.

Almighty’s saying
Or (the Unbelievers' state) is like the depths of darkness in a vast deep ocean, overwhelmed with billow topped by billow, topped by (dark) clouds: depths of darkness, one above another: if a man stretches out his hands, he can hardly see it! for any to whom Allah giveth not light, there is no light!
Modern sciences have revealed that in the bottom of the deep seas with abundant water - the deep sea - there is great darkness, to the extent that living creatures live in this darkness without visual tools, but live using their other senses such as hearing.
These dark darknesses are not found in the sea water that surrounds the Arabian Peninsula, but rather they have been discovered in the oceans far from it
This verse shows another aspect of the Qur’anic miracle, which is that the sea wave that all people only knew was one wave in the seas
The verse says there is another wave in the depths of the sea, and divers discovered at the beginning of the twentieth century a fact that was hidden in the depths of the sea, that fact that shows another wave that throws divers into it as it is thrown at swimmers, and this wave was discovered by Scandinavian divers.
I will tell you what the Prophet said. The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: One day the Bedouins who live in the desert will build tall towers, and this is my duty. Go and see where the
tallest buildings are and who owns them.
God Almighty: ((We will show them Our signs in the horizons and within themselves until it becomes clear to them that it is the truth. But is it not sufficient concerning your Lord that He is, over all things, a Witness?)
And God informed the Qur’an of this by saying: “Did you think that we created you without a purpose and that you would never return to us?”
All these and other matters that I have not mentioned indicate that this is a prophet from God..More important than that, as I told you, is the only religion that commands you to worship one Creator, who created everything and before him many prophets
Say, if you wish, there is no god but God, and that Muhammad is the Messenger of God

Had to cut off at the end?
This creation, the structure of the universe, the
foods, the tongue that tastes, the teeth that grind, the stomach that digests, the excretion of waste from the body, oxygen, the lungs, the eyes, the sexual desire and many other things, this does not indicate anything. Are you 100% sure of not having a creator?
Rivers and seas and the creatures in them and the rain that sows the earth beyond
It is very with lots of fruits
Nothing creates something
Are you 100% sure of not having a creator?
Go and see what religion commands you to worship. One Creator created everything, no three, no more, no less, but one. Go and see for yourself, you will find only one religion
But I will remind you of something you may have forgotten. And I want you to think about it. You are here in this world against your will. Just think a little bit that you are not here. By your own choice. You are here by choice.Choose to be here.He is one and you will go. See who commands you to worship one Creator, and you will find one religion, which is the religion of the prophets, and that is Islam. The matter is not easy, the matter is great in this existence, because whoever is able to bring you into this world against your will, after death, will either find you in grace and beauty that you have not seen, or torment and fear. which you have not seen.

I love it when the "faithful" talk about evidence. Of course there is no evidence. Faith by definition has nothing to do with evidence. Just believe, because an ancient book says so.
Dude you need to give up your weird idea of faith - it’s simply trust
There is SO much evidence the Torah is true. Just come to Israel.
Faith doesn't need evidence
@@JohnnyJackson746Exactly Johnny that's the point.
The initial argument from the Jewish guy citing the high number from his religion winning awards in science etc has zilch to do with his religion and all to do with their more privileged upbringing or personal brilliance in their field.
Franz Werfel - 'For those who believe, no explanation is necessary. For those who do not believe, no explanation is possible.'
CORRECT, THE EVIDENCE IS IN. god IS DEAD.
Great debate. I agree children should be raised to think and question for themselves. One of the key psycho-social pages of development is that adolescents will examine their parents world view, compare those with others in the world and then decide what his/her views/beliefs are. Unfortunately most religions do not allow this because of the faith element.
Not allowing their children to learn the truth of reality shows the parents already deep down in side know their religion is False. Willful ignorance is NOT FAITH. Faith is the excuse used for willful ignorance.
@@DavidmByrd what’s “the truth of reality”? What’s a true religion as opposed to a false religion?
Your second sentence sounds very jewish. During the Passover supper, for instance, the youngest child at the table must ask the four questions.
Only, a religion is not a point of view, but a general view, a system of thinking and behavior, therefore, training is required.
Typical jew gaslighting dawkins for his "antisimitism" because he said somthing that offended the jew
@@micvili7527 He said something that is a way of describing the G-d of the "Old Testament" that creates a monster and the 1700 years of creating Jews as monsters that followed from that were very real and brustal If a way of describing a belief system has caused enduring slaughter it's surely a bit of a problem that instead of Dawkins being even briefly to consider his description was exactly one that there is a term for because it justified our whole slaughter century. I believe Dawkins is not ignorant enough of history to find it credible he did not know that by casting what is the samee G-d as a monster he was replicating the thinking of Xian slaughters of Jews and Muslims.
Rabbi Sacks btw is not "the jew" He was in his time a formidable thinker and surely rates a name beyond "the jew:. You accord Dawkins thaat dignity
Its just a pleasure to hear Richard anytime. He is always clear on his points.
I gotta say, the moderator interrupts a little too much... I know it's her job to keep the structure and pace, but it's a bit annoying at times. Good debate though.
It is one thing to argue against God's existence; it is quite another thing to argue against a systematic religion. All of Prof. Dawkins' arguments in this debate are anti-religious arguments dressed as anti-theistic arguments. That is a fallacious extrapolation. Even if all systematic religions can be proven to be false, none of those proofs would amount to an argument against God's existence. One can argue against this or that religion, or, case in point, all of them, only if one has an argument against God's existence. Otherwise, all such arguments are moot. As far as I know, neither Prof. Dawkins has an anti-theistic argument, nor did he ever attempt one. And that is the reason, I think, behind his dogged refusal to debate Prof. William Craig, who has a series of deistic arguments, warts and all. Not, as Prof. Dawkins once put it, "because he [Prof. Craig] is a professional debater."
th-cam.com/video/Uaq6ORDx1C4/w-d-xo.html
Here's a debate between Craig and Dawkins
And for the record, all throughout The God Delusion, as well as other writings and public debates, Dawkins has made a vast array of arguments against theistic assertions, including the existence of any deity.
@@roymelamed2771 Name it!
@@roymelamed2771 This is not a debate, as Dawkins himself stated when asked by Craig: "I [Dawkinks] do not consider this to be a debate." There was some mixup as Craig was not informed of Dawkins' participation; nor, I think, Dawkins knew of Craig's participation. Get your facts straight.
@@dr.edwardfreeman Dawkins has attacked both religion and theism. There's not much he *hasn't* touched on, because I think we can both agree that Dawkins has written/talked about this subject ad nauseam.
