This was filmed before the pandemic. We know this kind of "close proximity" concept is basically the opposite of what would be safe during current times 😉
These people had some serious and meaningful conversation without shouting "you will burn in hell" or "you & your stupid thoughts". Great! I wish to see more such short conversations on various poles apart subjects.
I love that these two topics are discussed with such an open mind! I believe both can coexist! I went to college to study Animal Science, and I minored in Religious Studies and Biology. I am forever grateful for my well-rounded education and I found both perspectives fascinating! Both are a lens to see the world through and both are valid
I wish you 'd have placed Dr. GIL-DA-Costa (Neuroscientist) with a scholar of religion such as Reza Aslan. That could 've been been much more enlightening since Dr. Da Costa's arguments aim to question the concept of "God", rather than solely the narrative of Christianity and literalism in its interpretation. Anyways, compliments for engaging in a dialogue! :)
4:41 Rabbi's question at 4:41 was mind blowing, and shows that part of belief is hoping you have the right one. And living in a way that is honest so you feel like you're safe wether you were right or wrong about your religious belief. This implies that even at his high level as a religious leader, there is a sliver of doubt in its truth. Science however does not have doubts. Not to make a comparison between the two, but it seems like with science, you ask questions. With religion, you follow without question. Science makes a little more sense to me but you could never know. They always say the truth is scarier than fiction. Who knows what the truth really is. If there even is such a thing as truth?
As far as "a lot of luck", I thought the neuroscientist may have been thinking about the topic in terms of the sparsity of life within this universe, and therefore, yes, with so many star systems and planets, it stands to reason that some will have the "luck" of life within it. But I think a better question (and I'm coming at this as a Bahá'í whose Founders taught that creation has had no beginning, a view increasingly embraced by physicists), is that there seems to be a lot of "luck" (or pseudo-science) involved with the notion that a non-intelligent nature can continually will itself into being--since otherwise, why doesn't the universe just evaporate into nothingness? What sustains it and wills it into being at every moment? How can it just be here despite having no volition of its own? There's a "lot of luck"--or an awful waste of space--for a whole creation to just be without any Will or Intent behind it (though without suggesting an anthropomorphic idea of Intent that we can understand). While the question then becomes, "what is the Will or Intent behind what we call God?", but that is unfathomable because we are talking about an All-Powerful, Unknowable Being. But we at least have a sense that it must be an Intelligent, non-limited Essence--not like comparatively dumb nature which calls into question how it could exist despite its obvious limitations. Very nice to have these kind of friendly conversations, and featuring people who are not caricatures of one side or the other. Thank you.
There are so many moments where the scale is tipped in talks after the first one. The first pair were very collaborative. Second one started out in disagreement then became friends. Third seemed to argue the most.
It's interesting that those who look more to evolution without intelligent design by a creator don't question all the species which have both male & female & require two different beings to combine (egg/seed) to reproduce. To me that points to a creator with intelligent design. To me being strictly evolutionary would make us all much simpler, each being able to reproduce on it's own. I can't help but also question the complexity of things such as the eye, allowing us to see or the ear allowing us to hear. All of these things in our bodies are so complex. To me it takes an extreme amount of "blind faith" that everything just evolved by chance, more faith than it takes for me to accept that an intelligent creator was involved.
0:58 "..and we think we know what caused the (big) bang" without having any reason or evidence to think that though. that's literally the god of the gaps. you seem really nice lady, hope you find peace with the unknows
Wait; so are you agreeing with the lady or the religious scholar? Because 0:58 she is supporting what religious people say; because a few seconds prior she states the coherent reasons and evidence for thinking there was a Big Bang.
@@EuniceAdinaTumbleton I disagree with the lady. There are reasons and data to support the bang theory. What happens "before" that ("god spoke and there was a bang etc.") is pure speculation. Could it be god's voice? yes. Could it be a pink unicorn sneezing the universe into existence? also yes. I'm not agreeing with Reza Aslan either honestly but that's a different topic. I would argue his bit was a strawman, but these videos are (of course) heavily edited so I don't wanna criticize too much..
how is this possible during covid? the tight space makes everyone very defensive and brief already, why this tight space? doesn't change anything to the content of their conversations
Yes. The entire Bible is about the role of histamine as a neurotransmitter. The reason the Bible says that the "flesh" is the origin of sin in our bodies is because inflammation causes all manner of bad behavior.
Science and religion are two sides of the same deep human impulse to understand the world, to know our place in it, and to marvel at the wonder of life and the infinite cosmos we are surrounded by. Let’s keep them that way, and not let one attempt to usurp the role of the other.
@@Ton1956Y Yeah that is weird. Everything is weird. I guess one day we will know what started the bang or whatever you want to call it. But thinking that there is a being that did it is just plain ol' weird hehe
Wow! A HIGHLY disingenuous attempt to avoid any kind of rational debate by looking almost exclusively past the main points of both science and religion and trying to make the two seem compatible when they are ANYTHING BUT compatible. Totally useless if truth holds any value for you as a viewer. TOTAL DOWNVOTE!
The field of "Modern Science" was created by Bible believing Christians. It is the Biblical foundation of God being a rational, logical Creator and therefor He created a universe we can understand, is what Modern Science was founded on. Atheistic materialism is a worldview but NOT scientific nor what the study of science was built on.

It is this simple to be happy no matter your path. This is what schools need to teach
Love this content! Thank you SoulPancake!❤️
Respectful intellectual people having a civilized discussion are far too rare these days. It’s mesmerizing.
“I’d like to live a life where, either way, it works out well.” Love it
I like how their views are both contrasted and shared, just like a yin yang, and that it's reflected in their seating arrangement as well.
i really like this "small space" setting, nice idea
So that they throw hands
Kidding😅

And social distancing out the window .. loll
myb this film b4 covid
hahaha it was indeed filmed before Covid ;)
SoulPancake wheew good! 👍🏻

I really wish this video was longer ...
How come I've never spotted a single episode of this series? It's so cool
The statistician is so beautiful.

This is the first SoulPancake video I've watched in a VERY long time and I clicked ridiculously fast 🤣
P.S. Talithia is 😍
I really love her name. It's prettyyy😅❤❤❤

Aaahhhh...civilized discussions among people who have disagreements. I remember those.

Reza introducing himself on every platform: "As a scholar on religion who has a PHD...
Can science and religion agree on anything? Yes! Don’t be a sour meanie poop! The biology student said it best!😂❤️

There goes my anxietY-
Can we just appropriate how cute the Biology student looks?
Thank you Soulpancake
In today's society this platform is 💯 percent needed.. Intelligent minds
Thoughtful words Peaceful Hearts.. Sincerely Tee Jay
I could agree on some people on both sides here, but this was both stimulating and respectful.
The answer in simple words,
"Religion is outdated and science is updated."👍🏻
0:58 "..and we think we know what caused the (big) bang"
without having any reason or evidence to think that though. that's literally the god of the gaps.

You know how we evolved from monkeys why are there still monkeys and why aren’t they evolving
That is an interesting question! The internet has some answers: www.livescience.com/32503-why-havent-all-primates-evolved-into-humans.html
SoulPancake um sorry ye thanks
how is this possible during covid? the tight space makes everyone very defensive and brief already, why this tight space? doesn't change anything to the content of their conversations
Short answer : yes
•COVID likes small spaces •
This was filmed post covid as stated in the description
Grandma Tumbleton post covid ? We are still in the middle of it ... so how could this be filmed after when that hasn’t happened yet .
Yes. The entire Bible is about the role of histamine as a neurotransmitter. The reason the Bible says that the "flesh" is the origin of sin in our bodies is because inflammation causes all manner of bad behavior.
@Duece Lee Music he will never show it to you religious people are always like this

My daughter is a scientist and does not believe in God nor does she have faith in a creator. 😢
Does anyone think the second conversation was a little awkward?
So Rainn, care to elaborate on those tweets you made a while back, you know, the ones where you reference eating babies? #pgateisreal
Ok but why such enclosed spaces that makes me uncomfortable watching. Omggg i read some of reza's books! I didn't even recognize him
Its kinda weird that people still believe that there is a god or a creator, something that is conscious
It's kind of weird that people think that out of nothing came a universe.
@@Ton1956Y Yeah that is weird. Everything is weird. I guess one day we will know what started the bang or whatever you want to call it. But thinking that there is a being that did it is just plain ol' weird hehe
Forgive me! But it doesn't seem so *weird* to me, i think it's completely natural !
Well I guess ima weirdo
@@surenderbeniwal8578 natural to believe in a creator? Its like the opposite of natural isn't it?
YES they can.
Religious beliefs vary based on region/culture. Science does not. It can be proven, re-proven and improved upon, but it is repeatable.
Prashant Bhat rocks!! What a great concept.
This kinda feels like Jubilee's video. But way shorter.
No because there is only the science of religion, not a religion of science
Pesudo Intellectuals
oh
imagine giving away jesus
This my jam!!!!
hi
This is amazing.
Resa has no idea how to listen.
Great talks, but that small space without masks is really tone deaf. I don't think that's a narrative you'd want to put forth.
