I love Ricky Gervais description about Religion and Science. "If we lost all knowledge of both Religion and Science over night, in a thousand years Religion would be back but it would be completely different and Science would also be back but it would be exactly the same". That is "Truth".
@Raine Riny 7 I believe what is being referenced here are the "Physical Constants", Gravity, speed of light, chemistry etc. The changes you may observe will undoubtedly be caused by different/better methods of measurement plus better improved methods of analysis. The absolute majority of the real world that is measured and described by science will be the same. What it boils down to is method, Better method equals better results. Radioactive decay and chemical reactions will always be the same. As we know science deals with Theories not facts and Theories evolve over time as we learn. As for believing in and connecting with something greater. That's purely subjective, I connect with and view the Natural world as something greater rather than the outdated and superseded, (In my view) supernatural side of the discussion. Besides, we are only talking about 1000 years here. Anyway thanks for your comment.
@Raine Riny 7 That's very interesting, I had not seen that before but it stands to reason as we know that the speed of light changes its speed dependant on the medium that it is travelling in. It travels slower in water than it does in air. Travelling through the different mediums in the vacuum of space is no different. This makes no difference to the physical constant that is defined by science. The speed of light will be 299,792.458 kilometers per second for milenia to come.
@Raine Riny 7 You need light to measure its speed and that light has to come from a source. The light from every star in our galaxy travels through differing parts of space then it will be travelling through various different mediums. It stands to reason that the scientists making these various measurements didn't measure the same photons of light. Look, I'm not a physicist and I DON'T write the definitions of these constants, they are termed as constants and taught accordingly but the Speed of light currently is measured to the nearest metre per second and that constant will stay that way for a couple of weeks yet no matter what variations may be present.
@Raine Riny 7 I believe I have done my due diligence on this subject and it seems Mr. Sheldrake has very little credibility. Looking over all of the speed of light measurement experiments over the the centuries he has clearly cherry picked the Michelson-Morley period (1926-1949) where there was a very significant margin for error. They came up with a value of 299,796km/sec +/-4 with a margin for error of +12ppm. In 1950 Essen & Gordon-Smith got closer to the exact value when they produced a value of 299,792.5 +/-3 with a margin of error of +0.14ppm. In 1958 K.D. Froome confirmed the previous measurement with an identical value then in 1972 Evernson & others reduced the margin for error to -0.006ppm with their value of 299,792.4562+/-0.0011. Finally in 1983 the exact value was confirmed as 299,792.458km/sec. As I said previously, it's all about the method of measurment. It's called a constant for a reason. Choosing one set of figures and not putting them into context is very misleading and Sheldrake was being nothing but dishonest in his claims. Cherry picking for one's own benefit is too common and it demeans everyone, scientists and we the public. You even bought into his bullshit. As for the speed of light over the life of the universe, the jury is out. There are 2 camps, one thinks the speed of light has slowed and the other camp thinks it hasn't. This as with many other great mysteries will undoubtedly be solved in the future. Thanks for the discussion.
@Raine Riny 7 Are you serious. The man cherry picked a data set back in the time when scientists were still trying to put an exact value on c. and didn't even put it into context. We didn't know the precise value of c. back then. We were still learning. The previous experiment done by Rosa and Dorsey in 1907 gave c. a value of 299,710 +/-30 with a whopping margin for error of -280ppm and prior to that in 1862 Leon Foucault calculated c. to be 298,000+/-500 with a staggering margin of error of -0.60% not in parts per million. Don't you see how we have crept up on the precise value for c. over time. The constants have not changed and they certainly haven't changed just because he says they have. You're right, I don't have the credibility to judge him nor do I have the higher education but I am more than capable enough to go back into the scientific literature and and see for myself what he has done. I suggest you do the same. People have agendas and for good examples of this you only need to look at the climate change debacle. Vested interests trying to stifle debate and sway public opinion. This man has no credibility in the mainstream scientific community with his weird and wacky ideas. I have given you the relevant information and in the spirit of fair play I suggest you look it up and confirm it for yourself. Once again to summarize. 1. We haven't always known the precise value of c. 2. The value of c. has taken over 300 years to get to the exact value of c. starting with Romer and Huygens back in 1675 and their figure was 220,000km/sec which is an astronomical -27% out. (why didn't your hero choose that one ?) 3. Methods of measurement have improved over the centuries. 4. This is how we learn. I understand that you don't like this information and choose to believe someone like Sheldrake who is a very good communicator but I urge you to take the time and check for yourself. See that people like him aren't giving you all the facts. Anyway, make of this what you choose, I have nothing further to say on the matter. Stay well and thanks for the discussion.
If you’re trying to imply that Newton was secretly an atheist you couldn’t be more wrong. Newton was heavily into alchemy and esoteric stuff, he wrote books about it. He was a devout Christian and there is absolutely no evidence to the contrary.
The idea that Christianity holds a trademark on “truth” is pretty feeble. They borrowed a concept and then tried to commodify it. If it belonged exclusively to them - everyone else would be hopeless at discovering anything.
Every religion claims it's truthfulness, some are more oppressive and poisonous to development of mind. Why exactly did you choose to bash Christianity?
Christianity is the only religion bold enough to claim that God became human and died for our sins. There is no other religion that makes such claims. No concept was borrowed. Christianity is unique in that matter.

Ali a.s. is the first out of the 14 members of the Ahlulbayt a.s. and the first succesor of Mohammed s.a.w.s. (from the 12 total) which only a minority of Muslims follow (10-15%). To be frank with you the main reason why he left was probably because of the hadith books Sunni (majority) Muslims have, they are the definition of psychotic and show the Quran in a dark manner when it's full of light.

When listening to Alexis I get more and more confirmed that atheists don't really know what they are talking about. Max Planck: "There can never be any real opposition between science and religion; for the one is the complement of the other. Every serious and reflective person realizes, I think, that the religious element in his nature must be recognised and cultivated if all the powers of the human soul are to act together in perfect harmony. And indeed it is not an accident that the greatest thinkers of all ages were also deeply religious souls." The most remarkable scientists behind the birth of modern science such as Galileo Galilei, Robert Boyle, Michael Faraday, James Maxwell, Isaac Newton, Blaise Pascal and Louis Pasteur all believed in the genuine planning which can be observed in nature. Of Nobel Prize winners in science [data 1900-2000] 60% believe in God and most of that 60% are scientists. So it's rather illogical to set science and intelligent design against each other. It's a clearly artificial and non-functioning approach. Johannes Kepler breaks into enthusiasm at being the first to recognise the beauty of God's works. Thus the new way of thinking [science] has nothing to do with any turn away from religion. [Wilber, Quantum Questions, p.41]

Since when has serious philosophers and scientists ever cared about what is insulting? Atheism would not have lead to a system of searching for abstract law and order in the universe - period. The best it could come up with is applied science like engineering advancing at a slow pace of trial and error while competing with your enemies for survival of the fittest. If atheism was the dominant way of thought we'd still be trapped in the bronze age. Just deal with it? Edited for typos.
Just deal with it? Your arrogance is astounding. From what is basically a thought experiment you have completely dismissed the idea that evolution can produce emotion and wonder. Humans aren't good at dealing with big numbers, that's a general fact. I've heard constant arguments about evolution which reduce humans down to basic machines just because there is no god. When in reality you are talking about a much more complex process that took billions of years. You're twisting the facts to suit your arguement. Fact: humans are inquisitive beings that search for meaning and produce abstract concepts. Random made up fact: this is impossible without a divine creator. Ergo rubbish conclusion

Animals don't have metacognition as we humans do, so we must resist the temptation to anthropomorphise them so much. Nobody wants animals to suffer, but if they can be farmed on a small, sustainable scale and in a natural environment without enduring any gratuitous suffering, I don't see a problem with it. There are methods of slaughter which are more like euthanasia than conventional slaughter, most of them devised by Temple Grandin. The animals are exposed to a gas that sends them to sleep, they are rendered insensible to pain, and are killed in their sleep. It's as close as we're ever going to get to killing without a breach of ethics. Veganism is also highly impractical. It has left many people nutrition deficient and they have become very ill, and for a fussy eater like me, veganism simply isn't an option. Autistic people will never tolerate being forced to consume foods they detest. In conclusion, I believe a radical reduction in the human population would be a sufficient measure to make farming and consumption of animal products morally tolerable. Obviously this reduction should exclusively target the bloated, superfluous populations of the third world.

"It has left many people nutrition deficient and they have become very ill" Educate yourself beforehand and make sure to get some bloodwork done once a year, and you'll be fine. "Autistic people will never tolerate being forced to consume foods they detest." So who "forced" you to eat food you detest?

"For example: is my facial hair more important than someone starving?" Well I guess that's the answer, Alex decided not to shave for charity, obviously, duh.
As a Christian Catholic believer, I think there should be no conflict between science and faith, and that they should be perfectly compatible. But dr. Bannister's ideas are completely out of this world! As far as Galileo Galilei is concerned, in one of his works he stated: la scienza dice come “vadia il cielo”, la fede dice come si “vadia al cielo”, which means: science tells us how heaven functions, faith tells us how you get to heaven. Note that in Italian cielo means both the skies (astronomy) and heaven (theology). So I think he was a strong believer. Thank you Alex, with that beard you're even more charming! Salutes from Italy, Galileo's homeland!

Current science cannot bury religion, and vice versa. I will begin by defining what i will refer to as an "information barrier". An information barrier is a metaphorical or physical barrier that prevents us from coming to any solid conclusions. One such information barrier is history. We have a knowledge of history, but that knowledge is ultimately limited. On the other hand, we have a limited knowledge of religious lore. For example, we have fragments of the Gospel of Judas, but not the entire thing. Our limited knowledge of science, history, and religious lore prevents us from coming to provable conclusions. So, next time you hear an atheist say "Science disproves God", you know they are stupid due to the Dunning-Kreuger effect. The inverse is true for religious people; we cannot prove the existence of our gods, but some of us claim we can. All of this stems from a problem of human ignorance. Eventually, if these information barriers are broken, we may be able to disprove or prove God. But until then, stop acting like you know everything.

Alex, you gave the example of Darwin adding "by the Creator" in his 2nd edition to appease the Christians. That is EXACTLY what happened to our US Declaration of Independence when it says "...endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights." This passage was added to appease the Christians who wouldn't ratify it unless it had God in it. Being that the founders wanted this to be a secular nation and no mention of God, this was the compromise they came up with. Basically, they were forced to include it even though they didn't believe it was the right thing.
Would be dope to see you have a convo with God is grey. The rebuttals are dope, but i really like watching you sitting down and having more firnedly chats with reasonable peeps with differing perspectives (the kalam convo for instance).
As a retired Science Lecturer and teacher, it is science that studies Nature, but to Spinoza, God and Nature are one. "Deus Sim Narura" and it is my understanding of organic chemistry that confirms it
The problem with sugarcoating that religion and science don't contradict, is that... it isn't the case, since most religions do have statements about how reality works, and DO contradict reality itself. "Science doesn't contradict religion" but it does contradict that lighting volts aren't from Zeus, Ba'al nor Yahweh. "Science doesn't contradict religion", but it does contradict all creationist myths. "Science doesn't contradict religion" but it does contradict all religious cosmology.
I recommend that Alex checks out “History for Atheists” on the topic of the Galileo affair. He still seems to be feeding energy to a particular narrative that could use some nuance.

You're not alone. A lot of abrasive atheists seem to believe that this whole "if weren't for religion, we'd be living in style of the Jetsons". Which is a complete faith position, as we know that the first time you had an attempt at an atheist society, it resulted in outright brutalization, senseless violence and state terrorism (referring to the violent Dechristianization campaign of the French Revolutionary government). It did not result in "an explosion of innovation and science!". The only innovation made was proto-genocide (in the Vendee region).

If christianity was required for science, then how would you explain pre-modern science? Like, for example, Archimedes' discovery of his principle in ancient Greece or Al-Hazen's development of geometric optics during the Islamic Golden age? The now recognised founders of modern science like Galileo etc did not actually invent science, they mostly a tradition of scientific thinking that came before. Christianity did not even exist yet when the ancient Greeks invented science.
Hey, I really appreciate the thoughtfulness you put into your videos. I’m a Christian (I promise I actually think tho), but I’m readily aware that we’ve gotten thrown into a world where there doesn’t seem to be great answers from even the people claiming to have them all, and maybe especially them, so it’s applaudable that you are searching. Anyway, I’ve been following your thought on the ‘force’ behind our life and just wanted to run a thought by you. So, you have said “there is some kind of unseen law that governs the fine-tuning of the universe” and then, “I argue it’s some kind of undiscovered law of physics…” That’s basically where I got with the reasoning out of human life. Like, evolution or whatever had to have some force upon matter to propel it forward. The difference between that and something like a God is the question of intent. Like, does it know it is doing that, or does it have a purpose or reasoning behind its force for life (reasoning coming from a form of mind). It seems like you would agree the question is obviously, “Is this force self-aware?” And so, how do you know if something is self-aware? I think you can only know if it talks to you (at least, if we’re using our logic, which is all we have to go by), maybe there’s a different way though, idk? Regardless, if communication is the way to know intent, then the only real proof one could have for a personal force is by the force communicating with them. Christians make the claim that the force talked to them in our own medium as well as proved he was the ‘force’ by overriding the laws of our universe (death), so it seems like that actually is the only natural step for a God to make, if in fact he is the purposeful force behind our universe. I guess the claims of Jesus’ resurrection would be the next thing to look at? If they are fake then I don’t really see any evidence for the unseen force talking to us, though I’ve looked at psychedelics a little and maybe dreams - the resurrection seems more straightforward though. But, I actually think there is pretty solid evidence for that force communicating with us (basically Jesus). If you have any thoughts on this it would be much appreciated. Like I said, I am a Christian, but I care to be very solid on what I do with my life and so I like my beliefs challenged. I think the video I quoted was 3+ years old though, so I imagine you’ve had some new thoughts on this since then?
No wish to be rude but I have questions. How do u know death is real, or that it is as we think it is? Who said death is the law of the universe? (Drs bring ppl back to life all the time. I don't think death is as permanent as we think) Y is Jesus rising from the dead the main thing that makes him God or that it proves God? (Other religions have their gods rising and dying, as well the bible has quite a alot of dead ppl rising from the dead) How do we know he rose, wat evidence is there? (Bible will not be taken as a credible source) How do uk u can trust ur senses to believe wat u hear? Y is it the Christian god is real, and y one god? Does it matter if u call the force that started all things god, and y does it? How do u disprove the other gods? How do u prove ur god? Where did ur god come from? (If u say he's always been then y can't the universe at some level have always been?) How do uk the thing u think is god isn't lieing to u? How do uk wat is true? How can trust something that was written with a v specific intention? (Convertion) How do u trust something compiled by men, and written by men, and only men? How do explain the Bible saying God created everything, but Christians don't believe God created evil? (If u create everything how can something not be created by u, and if u make a claim abt that creation how can that be changed by the created when they're bond to the wat the creator created?) Is god all good? (Refer to above question)
I would love to see Alex critique Vedanta , particularly as taught at the moment by someone like Swami Sarvapriyananda of the Vedanta Society ( plenty of his videos on TH-cam ) . There is a general view in Vedanta that religion , like science , can be understood at various levels . You wouldn't teach particle physics to a child on their first day at school . Most of the people Alex seems to critique are at about the GCSE level of religious understanding . These Vedantins have a post PhD understanding of religion . So I personally would love be to see Alex have a discussion with Swami Sarvapriyananda in particular .
🍊💐🌹🌺 The Quran , being the final unchangeable message of God , is a very potent challenging book. Apart from its rhyme (in Arabic) & being memorized by heart by millions of muslims , it's also supported by science & maths ! It's a living permanent miracle of prophet Muhammad ! The miracle of mathematical codes hiding behind the text of the Quran is enough to prove its supernatural origin. The Quran is the only book where Yhwh himself speaks directly ! : 1- WATER STRATIFICATION: Existence of barriers which slow & control the mixing between different waters in the seas so that each water keeps its characteristics & species: 🌹Quran 55:19-20💐 ''He has set free the two seas meeting together. There is a barrier between them. They do not transgress (each other).'' 🌹Quran 25:53💐 ''He is the one who has set free the two kinds of water, one sweet and palatable, and the other salty and bitter. And He has made between them a barrier and a forbidding partition.'' en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stratification_(water) 2- THE PREFRONTAL CORTEX: The prefrontal cortex (the frontal part of the brain) is responsible for making decisions , manipulating , lying ,..etc 💐Quran 96🌹 15- ''Nay, if he(God's enemy) desist not, We shall most surely drag him down upon his forehead(in the judgement day) 16- A lying, sinful forehead!'' 3- THE MIRACLE OF IRON IN THE QURAN: IRON has meteoric origin in our solar system (sent down to Earth & sunk to the core): 🌹Quran chapter Iron 57:25💐 '' And We sent down iron, in which is great power, and many benefits for humanity " This miracle exists in Quran's copies which consider 'Basmalah' as the 1st verse (Basmala is the sentence 'In the name of God,the mercifull' at the head of each chapter). Thus, the verse 25 becomes 26(Iron's Atomic number). The number of verses 29 becomes 30(iron's neutrons). Chapter 57 is the core of the Quran(114 chapters). 57 is a stable isotope of iron. Iron has the second most tightly bound nuclei(Nuclear binding energy). 4- THE FINGERPRINTS : In The following verses God mentions his ability (in judgement day) to recreate not only the bones/skeleton after decomposition in the grave, but more difficult than that : the tips of fingers (this refers to the complexity of each paerson's fingerprints) : Quran 75 3 - Does man (a disbeliever) thinks that We shall not assemble his bones (in the hereafter)? 4 - Nay, We are Able to put together in perfect order the tips of his fingers. 5- EXPANSION OF THE UNIVERSE : Quran, 51:47 "And the firmament, We constructed with power and skill and verily We are expanding it. 6- BIG CRUNCH & ANOTHER BIG BANG (Cyclic universe hypothsis): Quran, 21:104 "The Day that We roll up the heavens like a scroll rolled up for books ,- even as We produced the first creation, so We will also reproduce it : a promise We have undertaken: truly shall We fulfill it. 39:67 They have not appraised Allah with true appraisal, while the earth(s) entirely will be [within] His grip on the Day of Resurrection, and the heavens will be folded in His right hand. Exalted is He and high above what they associate with Him. 14:48 [It will be] on the Day the earth will be replaced by another earth, and the heavens [as well], and all creatures will come out before Allah , the One, the Prevailing. 7- Embryology: The scientific translation of the verses of embryology: Q22:5 O mankind! if you are in doubt concerning the Resurrection, then lo! We (inform you that we ) have created you from a gamete/ovum , then from a zygote , then from an Blastocyst/adherent , then from a disc which is differentiated and not differentiated... ABIOGENESIS (beginning of life) IN CLAY AND EVOLUTION (of man) FROM ANOTHER SPECIES : Q23:12 And indeed We created man out of a species/progeny/life form which originated from clay. (12) Thereafter We made him into a Zygote in a welcoming stable lodging (endometrium). (13) Then We made the zygote into a Blastocyst/adherent , then We made the Blastocyst/adherent into a disc , then We made out of the disc bones (notochord), then We clothed the bones with muscles, and then We made him into another creation. So Blessed is Allâh, the Best of creators ------------------------------------------------ THE SURPRISE: Adam was a modern human who was created from a female like jesus . He was not the first man : Quran 3:59 Truly, the likeness of Jesus, in God's sight, is as Adam's likeness; He created him from a gamete/ovum , then said He unto him, 'Be,' and he was being" . - Evidence for the existence of other people when Adam was created , when satan refused to prostrate : Quran 38 He (God) said (to satan) : Go forth from hence, for lo! thou art outcast, (77) And lo! My curse is on thee till the Day of Judgment. (78) He said: My Lord! Reprieve me till the Day when they are raised.

I take serious issue with "The founding fathers of science" terminology being used here. It's a very Europeanised view. Scientific pursuit has been a human endeavour for centuries and had been occuring throughout many civilizations around the world before it kicked on in 16th century Europe. I'm a little disappointed that Alex even honoured this view enough to argue its merits.
@@janhavlis Plenty. Plato and Aristotle's Deductive Reasoning and Empiricism are the basis of the modern scientific method. Aristarchus and Eratosthenes had already theorised Heliocentrism and Spherical Earth with scientific evidence 1500 years prior to Copernicus. Works of astronomers such as Aryabhata, Bhaskara, Mesopotamian and Chinese counterparts had laid the foundations of modern astronomy. Archimedes, Ibn-Sahl (and many others during the Islamic Golden Period, whose names I can't recollect) had used the same scientific principles to study physics. I mean, I really could go on. The early modern European scientists are responsible for advancing these ideas and creating experimental and quantitative methods which kick-started modern science. Scientific approach has been a continuous (but, limited) endeavour from Mesopotamia, Greece, India, China and early Islam to modern Europeans. The theological underpinnings of Newton is as irrelevant as those of Greeks, Hindus, Chinese and Muslims.
@@FalconFire13 i beg to differ. what i think is mixed here is prerequisites to scientific method and the appearance of the method itself. i wholeheartedly agree that all the above mentioned thinkers sawed seeds which later became scientific method, but none of them in fact used it. empiricism per se is not scientific method, as e.g. aristotle used it only in limited extent, otherwise he wouldn't be later on mentioned for not testing hypothesis (he used deductive logic, but failed to test his conclusions falling to inductive leap trap), which is crucial in scientific method generally. moreover, whether we like it or not, historically, only european society gave birth in that time to the science, everywhere else the seeds failed to produce it. we may discuss why it happened this way (harari made few good points), hardly one can call it eurocentrism or suchs. would we call chinocentrism a fact, that chinese langs is the only major lang family with functionally established "purely" logographic script, although it had been used in many places over the world?
@@janhavlis I think I should've been more clearer. The early modern European scientists are indeed the pioneers of application of the modern scientific method. This is pretty much a universally accepted fact. But, they're not the founding fathers of 'science'. I'm sure you're aware of the the difference by definition. But, it's pretentious of us to draw the line at Copernicus using the scientific method as the basis; considering the achievements of post-classical and antiquity are the substratum of modern science. Either way, when I said Eurocentrism, I meant it for the "founding fathers of science" terminology, which is what the apologist claimed here (and yes, they do mean that), and not the scientific method. I do agree that Harari did mention a few good reasons, but it still needed more nuance. The crux of the point still stands, though. The religious underpinnings of those scientists are as irrelevant as those before them, whether they were empiricists or rationalists or skeptics.
@@FalconFire13 i am not sure, if i understand the term "modern scientific method" as there is any "premodern scientific method". i prefer to distinguish pre-science to science, where science is based on baconian empiricis (not necessarily directly falsifying, which is quite new in the mainstream, i know, weak, but it's the best i could come up with). i also tend to see engineering (technology development) and science to be different things. morevover, formal sciences like mathematics are also a bit different cup of tea. definitely, we are in accord about the religious underpinnings. well, generally, whenever speaking about a history of anything, any line we draw is arbitrary. maybe, my understanding of "founding fathers" is different than yours, so goes language. anyway, good chat :)
Belief that the son is subordinate to the father is not heretical and is part of trinitarianism. Newton was an Arian, which means he denied that the Son and the Father were homousias, or of the same substance (substance here not referring to physical materiality but rather the form and essence). Arianism professes that the Father and the Son are of different substances and denies the co-externality of the Son with the Father.

I struggle to see how atheism is a "worldview " . Here's a typical definition: "A worldview is effectively a set of beliefs and assumptions through which someone interprets the world around them". I understand why Christian apologists falsely call it a worldview but apart from not being convinced of any deity, does anything else "bind" atheists? A shared "non belief " can in no way be called a "set of beliefs". Dr Bannister is condescending, arrogant and desperate in equal doses.
@@emmanuelleon7686 not at all. Knowing someone is atheist doesn't tell you anything else about them except of not being convinced there is a god. A position on one thing can in no way be called a worldview.

I love Ricky Gervais description about Religion and Science. "If we lost all knowledge of both Religion and Science over night, in a thousand years Religion would be back but it would be completely different and Science would also be back but it would be exactly the same". That is "Truth".
@Raine Riny 7 I believe what is being referenced here are the "Physical Constants", Gravity, speed of light, chemistry etc. The changes you may observe will undoubtedly be caused by different/better methods of measurement plus better improved methods of analysis. The absolute majority of the real world that is measured and described by science will be the same. What it boils down to is method, Better method equals better results. Radioactive decay and chemical reactions will always be the same. As we know science deals with Theories not facts and Theories evolve over time as we learn. As for believing in and connecting with something greater. That's purely subjective, I connect with and view the Natural world as something greater rather than the outdated and superseded, (In my view) supernatural side of the discussion. Besides, we are only talking about 1000 years here. Anyway thanks for your comment.
@Raine Riny 7 That's very interesting, I had not seen that before but it stands to reason as we know that the speed of light changes its speed dependant on the medium that it is travelling in. It travels slower in water than it does in air. Travelling through the different mediums in the vacuum of space is no different. This makes no difference to the physical constant that is defined by science. The speed of light will be 299,792.458 kilometers per second for milenia to come.
@Raine Riny 7 You need light to measure its speed and that light has to come from a source. The light from every star in our galaxy travels through differing parts of space then it will be travelling through various different mediums.
It stands to reason that the scientists making these various measurements didn't measure the same photons of light. Look, I'm not a physicist and I DON'T write the definitions of these constants, they are termed as constants and taught accordingly but the Speed of light currently is measured to the nearest metre per second and that constant will stay that way for a couple of weeks yet no matter what variations may be present.
@Raine Riny 7 I believe I have done my due diligence on this subject and it seems Mr. Sheldrake has very little credibility. Looking over all of the speed of light measurement experiments over the the centuries he has clearly cherry picked the Michelson-Morley period (1926-1949) where there was a very significant margin for error. They came up with a value of 299,796km/sec +/-4 with a margin for error of +12ppm. In 1950 Essen & Gordon-Smith got closer to the exact value when they produced a value of 299,792.5 +/-3 with a margin of error of +0.14ppm. In 1958 K.D. Froome confirmed the previous measurement with an identical value then in 1972 Evernson & others reduced the margin for error to -0.006ppm with their value of 299,792.4562+/-0.0011. Finally in 1983 the exact value was confirmed as 299,792.458km/sec. As I said previously, it's all about the method of measurment. It's called a constant for a reason. Choosing one set of figures and not putting them into context is very misleading and Sheldrake was being nothing but dishonest in his claims. Cherry picking for one's own benefit is too common and it demeans everyone, scientists and we the public. You even bought into his bullshit. As for the speed of light over the life of the universe, the jury is out. There are 2 camps, one thinks the speed of light has slowed and the other camp thinks it hasn't. This as with many other great mysteries will undoubtedly be solved in the future. Thanks for the discussion.
@Raine Riny 7 Are you serious. The man cherry picked a data set back in the time when scientists were still trying to put an exact value on c. and didn't even put it into context. We didn't know the precise value of c. back then. We were still learning. The previous experiment done by Rosa and Dorsey in 1907 gave c. a value of 299,710 +/-30 with a whopping margin for error of -280ppm and prior to that in 1862 Leon Foucault calculated c. to be 298,000+/-500 with a staggering margin of error of -0.60% not in parts per million. Don't you see how we have crept up on the precise value for c. over time. The constants have not changed and they certainly haven't changed just because he says they have. You're right, I don't have the credibility to judge him nor do I have the higher education but I am more than capable enough to go back into the scientific literature and and see for myself what he has done. I suggest you do the same. People have agendas and for good examples of this you only need to look at the climate change debacle. Vested interests trying to stifle debate and sway public opinion. This man has no credibility in the mainstream scientific community with his weird and wacky ideas. I have given you the relevant information and in the spirit of fair play I suggest you look it up and confirm it for yourself. Once again to summarize.
1. We haven't always known the precise value of c.
2. The value of c. has taken over 300 years to get to the exact value of c. starting with Romer and Huygens back in 1675 and their figure was 220,000km/sec which is an astronomical -27% out. (why didn't your hero choose that one ?)
3. Methods of measurement have improved over the centuries.
4. This is how we learn.
I understand that you don't like this information and choose to believe someone like Sheldrake who is a very good communicator but I urge you to take the time and check for yourself. See that people like him aren't giving you all the facts.
Anyway, make of this what you choose, I have nothing further to say on the matter.
Stay well and thanks for the discussion.
Issac Newton never left His faith because He knew the gravity of doing so.

When listening to Alexis I get more and more confirmed that atheists don't really know what they are talking about.
Max Planck: "There can never be any real opposition between science and religion; for the one is the complement of the other. Every serious and reflective person realizes, I think, that the religious element in his nature must be recognised and cultivated if all the powers of the human soul are to act together in perfect harmony. And indeed it is not an accident that the greatest thinkers of all ages were also deeply religious souls."
The most remarkable scientists behind the birth of modern science such as Galileo Galilei, Robert Boyle, Michael Faraday, James Maxwell, Isaac Newton, Blaise Pascal and Louis Pasteur all believed in the genuine planning which can be observed in nature. Of Nobel Prize winners in science [data 1900-2000] 60% believe in God and most of that 60% are scientists. So it's rather illogical to set science and intelligent design against each other. It's a clearly artificial and non-functioning approach.
Johannes Kepler breaks into enthusiasm at being the first to recognise the beauty of God's works. Thus the new way of thinking [science] has nothing to do with any turn away from religion. [Wilber, Quantum Questions, p.41]

Humans aren't good at dealing with big numbers, that's a general fact. I've heard constant arguments about evolution which reduce humans down to basic machines just because there is no god. When in reality you are talking about a much more complex process that took billions of years. You're twisting the facts to suit your arguement. Fact: humans are inquisitive beings that search for meaning and produce abstract concepts. Random made up fact: this is impossible without a divine creator. Ergo rubbish conclusion

Animals don't have metacognition as we humans do, so we must resist the temptation to anthropomorphise them so much. Nobody wants animals to suffer, but if they can be farmed on a small, sustainable scale and in a natural environment without enduring any gratuitous suffering, I don't see a problem with it. There are methods of slaughter which are more like euthanasia than conventional slaughter, most of them devised by Temple Grandin. The animals are exposed to a gas that sends them to sleep, they are rendered insensible to pain, and are killed in their sleep. It's as close as we're ever going to get to killing without a breach of ethics.
Veganism is also highly impractical. It has left many people nutrition deficient and they have become very ill, and for a fussy eater like me, veganism simply isn't an option. Autistic people will never tolerate being forced to consume foods they detest.
In conclusion, I believe a radical reduction in the human population would be a sufficient measure to make farming and consumption of animal products morally tolerable. Obviously this reduction should exclusively target the bloated, superfluous populations of the third world.

@@CosmicSkeptic I have knowledge over god
As a Christian Catholic believer, I think there should be no conflict between science and faith, and that they should be perfectly compatible. But dr. Bannister's ideas are completely out of this world!
As far as Galileo Galilei is concerned, in one of his works he stated: la scienza dice come “vadia il cielo”, la fede dice come si “vadia al cielo”, which means: science tells us how heaven functions, faith tells us how you get to heaven. Note that in Italian cielo means both the skies (astronomy) and heaven (theology). So I think he was a strong believer.

Always a pleasure listening to you. Wonderful video as usual.
Not finished yet but excellent (as always) so far, and btw the audio quality is excellent and the facial hair looks good. Ok, back to the video now....
Current science cannot bury religion, and vice versa. I will begin by defining what i will refer to as an "information barrier". An information barrier is a metaphorical or physical barrier that prevents us from coming to any solid conclusions. One such information barrier is history. We have a knowledge of history, but that knowledge is ultimately limited. On the other hand, we have a limited knowledge of religious lore. For example, we have fragments of the Gospel of Judas, but not the entire thing. Our limited knowledge of science, history, and religious lore prevents us from coming to provable conclusions. So, next time you hear an atheist say "Science disproves God", you know they are stupid due to the Dunning-Kreuger effect. The inverse is true for religious people; we cannot prove the existence of our gods, but some of us claim we can. All of this stems from a problem of human ignorance. Eventually, if these information barriers are broken, we may be able to disprove or prove God. But until then, stop acting like you know everything.

Alex, you gave the example of Darwin adding "by the Creator" in his 2nd edition to appease the Christians. That is EXACTLY what happened to our US Declaration of Independence when it says "...endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights." This passage was added to appease the Christians who wouldn't ratify it unless it had God in it. Being that the founders wanted this to be a secular nation and no mention of God, this was the compromise they came up with. Basically, they were forced to include it even though they didn't believe it was the right thing.

The problem with sugarcoating that religion and science don't contradict, is that... it isn't the case, since most religions do have statements about how reality works, and DO contradict reality itself.

You're not alone. A lot of abrasive atheists seem to believe that this whole "if weren't for religion, we'd be living in style of the Jetsons". Which is a complete faith position, as we know that the first time you had an attempt at an atheist society, it resulted in outright brutalization, senseless violence and state terrorism (referring to the violent Dechristianization campaign of the French Revolutionary government). It did not result in "an explosion of innovation and science!". The only innovation made was proto-genocide (in the Vendee region).

Indeed, hence my comment. This person, incorrectly, call it the "tree of knowledge".
Hey, I really appreciate the thoughtfulness you put into your videos. I’m a Christian (I promise I actually think tho), but I’m readily aware that we’ve gotten thrown into a world where there doesn’t seem to be great answers from even the people claiming to have them all, and maybe especially them, so it’s applaudable that you are searching.
Anyway, I’ve been following your thought on the ‘force’ behind our life and just wanted to run a thought by you. So, you have said “there is some kind of unseen law that governs the fine-tuning of the universe” and then, “I argue it’s some kind of undiscovered law of physics…” That’s basically where I got with the reasoning out of human life. Like, evolution or whatever had to have some force upon matter to propel it forward. The difference between that and something like a God is the question of intent. Like, does it know it is doing that, or does it have a purpose or reasoning behind its force for life (reasoning coming from a form of mind). It seems like you would agree the question is obviously, “Is this force self-aware?” And so, how do you know if something is self-aware? I think you can only know if it talks to you (at least, if we’re using our logic, which is all we have to go by), maybe there’s a different way though, idk? Regardless, if communication is the way to know intent, then the only real proof one could have for a personal force is by the force communicating with them.
Christians make the claim that the force talked to them in our own medium as well as proved he was the ‘force’ by overriding the laws of our universe (death), so it seems like that actually is the only natural step for a God to make, if in fact he is the purposeful force behind our universe. I guess the claims of Jesus’ resurrection would be the next thing to look at? If they are fake then I don’t really see any evidence for the unseen force talking to us, though I’ve looked at psychedelics a little and maybe dreams - the resurrection seems more straightforward though. But, I actually think there is pretty solid evidence for that force communicating with us (basically Jesus). If you have any thoughts on this it would be much appreciated. Like I said, I am a Christian, but I care to be very solid on what I do with my life and so I like my beliefs challenged. I think the video I quoted was 3+ years old though, so I imagine you’ve had some new thoughts on this since then?
No wish to be rude but I have questions.
How do u know death is real, or that it is as we think it is?
Who said death is the law of the universe? (Drs bring ppl back to life all the time. I don't think death is as permanent as we think)
Y is Jesus rising from the dead the main thing that makes him God or that it proves God? (Other religions have their gods rising and dying, as well the bible has quite a alot of dead ppl rising from the dead)
How do we know he rose, wat evidence is there? (Bible will not be taken as a credible source)
How do uk u can trust ur senses to believe wat u hear?
Y is it the Christian god is real, and y one god?
Does it matter if u call the force that started all things god, and y does it?
How do u disprove the other gods?
How do u prove ur god?
Where did ur god come from? (If u say he's always been then y can't the universe at some level have always been?)
How do uk the thing u think is god isn't lieing to u?
How do uk wat is true?
How can trust something that was written with a v specific intention? (Convertion)
How do u trust something compiled by men, and written by men, and only men?
How do explain the Bible saying God created everything, but Christians don't believe God created evil? (If u create everything how can something not be created by u, and if u make a claim abt that creation how can that be changed by the created when they're bond to the wat the creator created?)
Is god all good? (Refer to above question)
I don't have anything to say except this is really interesting and made me think. Thanks for posting this really thoughtful comment 🙂
What makes you imagine that you either are or could possibly be, a Christian?
I don't believe in god. I believe in science means. If science proved god I would believe but currently there is no proof for god so I don't believe.

Why the pyramids were built?:
The pyramids were alligned with some stars because Pharaoh of the exodus
somehow wanted to
watch the god of Moses ( The pyramids were used as electricity generators to project light up to the sky ):
Quran 40:36 And Pharaoh said, "O Haman, construct for me a tower that I might reach the ways -
40:37
The ways into the heavens - so that I may look at the deity of Moses;
but indeed, I think he is a liar." And thus was made attractive to
Pharaoh the evil of his deed, and he was averted from the [right] way.
And the plan of Pharaoh was not except in ruin.
How the pyramids were built ? :
It is first discovered by Joseph Davidovits(material scientist) then
supported by Michel Barsoum(materials science researcher) that the
blocks of the pyramids are not natural . but they are just moulded

- Sea floor spreading subducted slabs:
Q15:19 And the earth-We had expanded it and CAST/THREW
anchors/stabilizers into it.
- The subducted slabs in the trenches prevent planet earth's poles
shift (crust displacement)by acting as anchors for the plates or by
distributing mass inside earth . Underground caves-rivers allow
scientific research:
Q16:15 And He had CAST/THROWN anchors/stabilizers into The Earth so that
it does not shift/sway with you ; and rivers, and paths(caves), so that
you will be guided.

The Quran Now
fuck off your religion is worse
@@lahoucine66 I will admit I've never had someone try this hard to convince that the Quaran is true. I don't believe in gods of any kind, and your Imam has to "interpret" this ancient "perfect" book. If it was so perfect, it wouldn't need humans to tell you what it really means. Rasputin performed dozens of miracles, came back from the dead multiple times, and made a lot of prophecies that "prove" he was holy. I could go on. I'm glad your beliefs work for you, though that doesn't affect their validity. And any religion taught to children is psychological torture and child abuse. If you were brainwashed into it, I'm sad for you & hope you find your way out.
The Quran is a crown .
It makes believers resist to moral decay .
Please read it once .
Because you will be judged .
Nb: there is a link on my channel to a more updated list of proofs that shows the Quran is from God
Thanks 👍🙏
I take serious issue with "The founding fathers of science" terminology being used here. It's a very Europeanised view.
Scientific pursuit has been a human endeavour for centuries and had been occuring throughout many civilizations around the world before it kicked on in 16th century Europe.
I'm a little disappointed that Alex even honoured this view enough to argue its merits.
would you mind an example?
@@janhavlis Plenty.
Plato and Aristotle's Deductive Reasoning and Empiricism are the basis of the modern scientific method.
Aristarchus and Eratosthenes had already theorised Heliocentrism and Spherical Earth with scientific evidence 1500 years prior to Copernicus.
Works of astronomers such as Aryabhata, Bhaskara, Mesopotamian and Chinese counterparts had laid the foundations of modern astronomy.
Archimedes, Ibn-Sahl (and many others during the Islamic Golden Period, whose names I can't recollect) had used the same scientific principles to study physics.
I mean, I really could go on. The early modern European scientists are responsible for advancing these ideas and creating experimental and quantitative methods which kick-started modern science.
Scientific approach has been a continuous (but, limited) endeavour from Mesopotamia, Greece, India, China and early Islam to modern Europeans.
The theological underpinnings of Newton is as irrelevant as those of Greeks, Hindus, Chinese and Muslims.
@@FalconFire13 i beg to differ. what i think is mixed here is prerequisites to scientific method and the appearance of the method itself. i wholeheartedly agree that all the above mentioned thinkers sawed seeds which later became scientific method, but none of them in fact used it. empiricism per se is not scientific method, as e.g. aristotle used it only in limited extent, otherwise he wouldn't be later on mentioned for not testing hypothesis (he used deductive logic, but failed to test his conclusions falling to inductive leap trap), which is crucial in scientific method generally. moreover, whether we like it or not, historically, only european society gave birth in that time to the science, everywhere else the seeds failed to produce it. we may discuss why it happened this way (harari made few good points), hardly one can call it eurocentrism or suchs. would we call chinocentrism a fact, that chinese langs is the only major lang family with functionally established "purely" logographic script, although it had been used in many places over the world?
@@janhavlis I think I should've been more clearer.
The early modern European scientists are indeed the pioneers of application of the modern scientific method. This is pretty much a universally accepted fact.
But, they're not the founding fathers of 'science'. I'm sure you're aware of the the difference by definition.
But, it's pretentious of us to draw the line at Copernicus using the scientific method as the basis; considering the achievements of post-classical and antiquity are the substratum of modern science.
Either way, when I said Eurocentrism, I meant it for the "founding fathers of science" terminology, which is what the apologist claimed here (and yes, they do mean that), and not the scientific method.
I do agree that Harari did mention a few good reasons, but it still needed more nuance.
The crux of the point still stands, though. The religious underpinnings of those scientists are as irrelevant as those before them, whether they were empiricists or rationalists or skeptics.
@@FalconFire13 i am not sure, if i understand the term "modern scientific method" as there is any "premodern scientific method". i prefer to distinguish pre-science to science, where science is based on baconian empiricis (not necessarily directly falsifying, which is quite new in the mainstream, i know, weak, but it's the best i could come up with). i also tend to see engineering (technology development) and science to be different things. morevover, formal sciences like mathematics are also a bit different cup of tea. definitely, we are in accord about the religious underpinnings.
well, generally, whenever speaking about a history of anything, any line we draw is arbitrary. maybe, my understanding of "founding fathers" is different than yours, so goes language. anyway, good chat :)
Belief that the son is subordinate to the father is not heretical and is part of trinitarianism.
Newton was an Arian, which means he denied that the Son and the Father were homousias, or of the same substance (substance here not referring to physical materiality but rather the form and essence). Arianism professes that the Father and the Son are of different substances and denies the co-externality of the Son with the Father.

Ordered a vegan meal for dinner today because of you!
CosmicSkeptic has buried unwarranted animal suffering.
What if it's good for the WELL BEING of the human species to consome an animal or hunt and kill to keep a certain population of species down? What about invasive species? They have a right to live too right? Should we just let them muck about?
@@nicholaswiedman1409 factory farming doesn’t protect us from invasive species haha. And if there was an invasive species, you might kill it, but you wouldn’t torture it in gas chambers like factory farms do to pigs. Google that if you’d like to see.
And we can get the same nutrients from plants as from animals if you eat wisely, so there’s no well-being deficit in being vegan.
@@Iamwrongbut So you're OKAY with killing animals if it's for the WELL BEING of the human species? That isn't very Vegan!
@@nicholaswiedman1409 I’m okay with killing animals if it is necessary. Factory farming is not necessary.
Veganism is about the optimal reduction of animal suffering, not the elimination of it.
@@Iamwrongbut How is not killing animals NOT the optimal amount of suffering reduction?
“Has Science Buried God?” by John C. Lennox is a great book.
Maybe, but John C Lennox has partitioned his brain in such a way that a brilliant mathematician is also an embarrassingly mediocre apologist.
@@brettbcomedy - According to who?
@@gavinhurlimann2910 anyone who cares about the arguments.
@@gavinhurlimann2910 but that’s coming from someone who’s rarely impressed with religious apologists as they all seem to argue from a place of wishfulness and, to a man, end up special-pleading with circular arguments.
@@brettbcomedy - "Anyone who cares about the arguments" - is illustrated in the data that shows atheism, agnostism & religious nones projected to fall from the current 16% to 13% of the global population. How does it feel to be part of a group that believes that even fellow atheists are the least trustworthy of any other belief group?

Science can’t bury something that never evidently existed.
@@viktorijakrasovska8390 “God” does not evidently exist. “Religion” the exercise of make believe and silly traditions, yep we have plenty of those type roaming around.
@@viktorijakrasovska8390 *"what type of evidence would you need to believe in a God of christian faith?"*
That question is stupid in itself. The fact that you have to ask that question already shows that you have no evidence.
Otherwise you'd have empirical and logically verifiable evidence that can be clearly used to prove the existence of a god. There is no such things, and never have.
All that you guys have is your ancient book full of badly written ancient stories, some of which appear to refer to reality but have been shown to be inaccurate and ambiguous.
poor Galileo. as if you needed another reason to dislike the catholic church
Oh no...Alex please have mercy. We are not ready for the facial hear.
It's sad when you see a fully grown adult using unsound logic to pretend to prove the existence of mythological stories
They both have British accents so I have equal respect for everything they say.
W h a t ?
British people hate the phrase 'British accents', especially when you mean English. If you heard a Scottish person, you'd probably not say British, but Scottish. Using British to mean English, while not technically wrong, is a bit disrespectful to the Scottish and Welsh, whose individuality and language have historically been threatened by English people.

@@JohnnyPlsCumMe Yes, indeed it is
I struggle to see how atheism is a "worldview " . Here's a typical definition: "A worldview is effectively a set of beliefs and assumptions through which someone interprets the world around them". I understand why Christian apologists falsely call it a worldview but apart from not being convinced of any deity, does anything else "bind" atheists? A shared "non belief " can in no way be called a "set of beliefs".
Dr Bannister is condescending, arrogant and desperate in equal doses.
It can be a worldview, depending on your definition of atheism. If you believe there is no God, then it's a worldview.
@@emmanuelleon7686 not at all. Knowing someone is atheist doesn't tell you anything else about them except of not being convinced there is a god. A position on one thing can in no way be called a worldview.
@@anthonysmith8800 No, you missed my point, my example was of somebody who uses atheism by the definition of belief there is no God. This tells you a LOT about somebody's worldview, wouldn't you say?
Come on, deal with the heavy weights. Talk to Jonathan Pageau 😉
You can’t be serious. That fucking jungian is indeed hilarious, but not a „heavy weight“.

@@dionysis_ I had a phase in which I watched his content a lot and the impression I got is that he is heavily influenced by Jungianism. Or what is his form of „symbolism“ supposed to be, if not an elaboration of jungian ideas?
