    (there are still some edits and color correction to be done but we wanted to have the TH-cam version out as soon as possible)
    Join critically-acclaimed author and evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins and world-renowned theoretical physicist and author Lawrence Krauss as they discuss biology, cosmology, religion, and a host of other topics.
    The authors will also discuss their new books. Dawkins recently published The Magic of Reality: How We Know What's Really True, an exploration of the magic of discovery embodied in the practice of science. Written for all age groups, the book moves forward from historical examples of supernatural explanations of natural phenomena to focus on the actual science behind how the world works.
    Krauss's latest book, A Universe from Nothing: Why There is Something Rather than Nothing, explains the scientific advances that provide insight into how the universe formed. Krauss tackles the age-old assumption that something cannot arise from nothing by arguing that not only can something arise from nothing, but something will always arise from nothing.
    Founded in 2008, the ASU Origins Project is a university-wide transdisciplinary initiative aimed at facilitating cutting edge research and inquiry about origins questions, enhancing public science literacy, and improving science education. Since its inception, the Origins Project has brought the world's leading scientists, including Nobel Prize winners, to Tempe to explore origins questions. The Origins Project has hosted workshops and public events that have focused on questions as fundamental as the origin of the universe, how life began, the origins of human uniqueness, and the origins of morality.

      Here is some science, not religion.
      Cabrera Museum
      Dr. Dennis Swift was shown around the museum by Dr Javier Cabrera and he was surprised at what some of the stones depicted. He saw protopeople riding pteranodons. Dr. Cabrera held up a stone of copter [pteranodons with the drawing of a man riding upon it. Some of these pteranodons were stupendously large. Quetzalcoatlus, the largest flying creature known to existed had a gigantic wingspan of fifty-one feet or more, larger than that of many jetfighter airplanes today. Another specimen had a skull and crest that measured five feet nine inches in length. The stones also indicated that the Pre Columbian Indians also had dinosaur ranches. So Marco Polo in China was right when it came to dinosaurs being trained at a young age to pull the Emperor’s chariots. It stands to reason that some of them would have been burden bearers. In history, very often the majority opinion is wrong.
      As the tour of the museum was coming to a close, Dr. Cabrera opened up a photo album and he proceeded to show Dr. Dennis Swift photos of dignitaries to whom he had given stones. There was a photo of Dr. Cabrera with the Queen of Spain with an engraved stone so big it had to be hoisted with crane. He gave another to the Queen of Sweden and they stood together with a massive stone. Still a third photo was of him with Shirley MacLaine. Dr. Dennis Swift repeatedly offered Dr. Cabrera money for one of these unique priceless stones, but he insisted that he would not sell them. Dr. Cabrera also gave one to Dr. Dennis Swift’s wife affectionately known as the Queen of Beaverton, with a T.Rex and triceratops engraved on it. It stands to reason that none of these ICA Stones were cheap forgeries made by peasants. Dignitaries only want that which is genuine and they possess the means to verify their authenticity. Forget about your Radio Metric Dating for dinosaurs and rocks, they are not millions of years old. The evidence is absolutely clear they were contemporary with humans not so long ago.

      The truth should be told in all schools and universities that evolution is a religion.
      The Evolutionary Origin of Birds
      This is a matter of deduction, it is all guess work. Pure fantasy and imagination based on the artificial geologic column. There is no fossil evidence of the stages through which this remarkable change from reptile to bird was achieved. Impossible alterations needed in order to change a reptile into a bird: A “variety of feathers” covering the bird, growth of wings, strengthening of certain muscles, higher blood sugar levels and body temperate levels, this is a drastic change, total revision of respiratory, nervous and reproductive systems, lightening of bones in order for it to fly, new digestive system and instinctive behaviours, every specie is subject to irreducible complexity. This is a problem for Darwinian Evolutionary Religion and a bridge too far for natural selection based on random mutations relative to the genome. It is not possible to have a build-up of genetic complexity. Irreducible complexity speaks for itself. They say it takes about 20 transitional forms [guesswork] to change one- specie into another. Charles Darwin said, “As by this theory innumerable transitional forms must have existed, why do we not find them embedded in countless numbers in the crust of the earth? Good question Charlie! The number of intermediate links between all living and extinct species must have been inconceivably great!
      A note on Comparative anatomy
      This not evidence for evolution. It just means that when you have a good design you use it to create a variety of species. For example: the foot, knee and ankle. Man invented the wheel, utilizing it on carts, bicycles, cars, trams, steering wheels etc.
      Evolution is on trial here not Creation.
      If there were a number of evolutionists in a room with one creationist, who do you think would have the legitimate right to throw a stone? If the creationist said to the evolutionists show me fossil evidence of macro-evolution on a grand- scale. All the evolutionists would have to leave the room one by one, beginning at the eldest to the youngest; he would be left alone in the room. The creationist would be the one that had the legitimate right to throw stones at all the evolutionists, but he could not do so. Being a Christian he would show love and have mercy upon the willingly ignorant, praying that they may come to their senses! Being caught up in evolution being your occupation when suddenly the light comes on is not an easy position to find yourself in. As one molecular biologist said to me anonymously, that he could see design in all living organisms but he could not say he didn’t believe in evolution or he would be out of a source of income, words to the effect.
      Objectivity of Science
      “One cannot be exposed to the law and order of the universe without concluding that there must be design and purpose behind it all. To be forced to believe only one conclusion that everything in the universe happened by chance [my opinion doesn’t make sense] would violate the very objectivity of science itself. They [evolutionists] challenge science to prove the existence of God. But must we really light a candle to see the sun? It is in scientific honesty that I endorse the presentation of alternative theories for the origin of the universe, life and man in the science classroom. It would be an error to overlook that the universe was planned rather than happening by chance.”
      Dr. Wernher von Braun [Father of American rocket and space program]
      The problem today is communism and a lack of scientific honesty, because evolutionists are hostile towards belief in God. This teaching is all part of the globalist agenda which will end in tears.
      I would have liked to see Richard Dawkins debate a man like this.

      Here is science that has been observed, tested and studied. Enjoy! A spanner in the works, proving what evolutionists are really made off. Dinosaurs Contemporary with Humans
      Dr Don Patton PhD in geology studied at Indiana State University, Cambridge U.K and finally finished at Queensland University Australia, after 15 years of work, he earned an accreditation which was withdrawn by Professor Wilson who was appointed Head of Department of Geology and Mineralogy at the Queensland University between 1960 to 1986; because they did not like giving degrees to Creationists. He had to work another two years before he finally got his accreditation for his PhD.
      He did excavations at Glen Rose Texas at the Paluxy River Bed, which yielded dinosaur footprints and human footprints in the same rock strata being Cretaceous lime stone that is supposed to be 140 million years old! Dinosaur bones can be eroded and redeposited, they can also be intrinsically buried and here is the difference, you cannot do that with dinosaur and human tracks that have formed from sedentary mud and have turned into hard rock. The Paluxy River bed contains dinosaur footprints that you can walk in alongside human footprints, destroying the myth that dinosaurs lived millions of years before man, they were contemporary. When sediment was washed out of the human footprints, you could see clearly 5 toes and relative heel prints in pristine condition. Human footprints, seen inside dinosaur tracks; which is conclusive evidence. There were 135 dinosaur tracks but 14 human tracks in a right to left direction, going from right to left through the dinosaur tracks, some beside and within, clear evidence for those of a sound mind. Evolutionists enjoy the term erosion, but it does not fit with the actual observed evidence. These have not been carved as they were excavated from under overbearing rocks. You cannot have erosion as an answer to pristine patterns of human footprints. These are desperate remarks from evolutionists who love to grasp at straw men. They were not carved, it is not logical; how do you get underneath overbearing rocks? The layers are about 6 feet of alternating clay and lime stone, and so the reasoning by evolutionists does not make any sense. Dr Don Patton presented his findings to the Tennessee State University to a group of senior geologists; he showed the tracks and explained the process of coming to his conclusion: dinosaurs and humans were contemporary. There were about 50 Grad Students of geology present, they could not argue with his findings, so they looked back to the Head of the Department for a response. His rely was ridiculous to say the least. He said, we do not know whether back then, that there were dinosaurs with human feet. Then Dr Patton replied and we do not know whether humans had dinosaur feet and he went on to say, if they were human tracks would they look any different than todays? The Head of the Department didn’t like that answer, so he just walked away. The Curator of the Dallas Museum of Natural History came down and so the evidence and went away upset, then he came again and went away upset. He came back the third time, having been thinking about the problem and said to Dr Patton, I know what these are, even though they look like human tracks, they really are not human tracks, they were made by aliens! He was as serious as he could be. They simply do not want to accept what is clear pristine evidence. Dr Patton replied, if they are aliens and more intelligent than us; being from a distant galaxy what are they doing walking about barefoot? He didn’t like that answer so he walked away. Dr Don Patton has presented his evidence to about 100 universities in America with no positive outcome in recognition of the facts. The Darwinian box is so hardly jammed upon their heads they cannot get it off and see sense. I have no respect for evolutionists who deliberately suppress, ignore and disregard any evidence against evolution.

      😂 , evolution is everywhere , when u see viruses and bacteria get resistant to certain drugs that’s evolving , they change , mutation occurs within them to change their structure to adapt to the new environment, in smaller species like that it’s quite obvious , for humans who are more complex a full morphing into another kind of phenotypically different human would obviously take longer time hundreds to millions of years but genetically our bodies become resistant to certain diseases , if you stay in sub Saharan africa like myself a Nigerian , you have your immune system better enhanced to defend you from malaria a condition which any one from the west could easily die from if not treated well. Adaptation genetically is very evident in humans of today . In animals evolution is quite evident , the extinction of species is also proof that a group of organisms who don’t adapt can die out , invoking a perfect designer who is very much ok with his creations dying out without any external help to prevent or stall this is also not so reasonable , if I created something and I saw it disintegrating each day and I made no move to restore it , would I really be a creator ? I am not saying that there is no creator , 😂 just that there is evidence of evolution all around us you just have to look . Evidence of creator - not so obvious that doesn’t disprove it however .Just not in the sense of all powerful , all loving , all patient , doesn’t want anyone to die .....

      Two corrupt minds simply ignoring the truth! First, there is no means of dating rocks to be millions of years old! No Radio Metric Dating methods can be trusted! Lead/ Uranium for an example: You can find rocks with radio= isotopes in them decaying, but you do not know the consistency of the rock at the very beginning: how much lead verses uranium was contained within it. Nobody knows! No scientist was present to see the decay process begin, just like no scientist was present to see chemicals come together and form living cells billions of years ago! Give me a break, give me some science, things I can observe, test and study. As for lead being found in a rock relative to uranium; there are other decaying elements that also turn into lead and leave no trace, that they were there in the beginning. All your assumptions, suppositions, presuppositions, speculative thinking all revolves around Darwinian Evolution being their axis of rotation.

      ‏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
      ‏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
      ‏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

      He brings up the big bang. Not only is it stupid as it is, but it has nothing to do with creation.
      "----Misconceptions----
      The following is a partial list of misconceptions about the Big Bang model:
      The Big Bang as the origin of the universe: One of the common misconceptions about the Big Bang model is the belief that it was the origin of the universe. However, the Big Bang model does not comment about how the universe came into being.

Matter of fact, Matt must offer how we got the laws of nature to begin with out of chaos.
      Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it.
      Then the extreme order we have in our universe that defies all physics, but....., not to Matt. It's just happened by mere chances even though we prove it can't happen by chance.

      This is a matter of deduction, it is all guess work. Pure fantasy and imagination based on the artificial geologic column. There is no fossil evidence of the stages through which this remarkable change from reptile to bird was achieved. Impossible alterations needed in order to change a reptile into a bird: A “variety of feathers” covering the bird, growth of wings, strengthening of certain muscles, higher blood sugar levels and body temperate levels, this is a drastic change, total revision of respiratory, nervous and reproductive systems, lightening of bones in order for it to fly, new digestive system and instinctive behaviours, every specie is subject to irreducible complexity. This is a problem for Darwinian Evolutionary Religion and a bridge too far for natural selection based on random mutations relative to the genome. It is not possible to have a build-up of genetic complexity. Irreducible complexity speaks for itself. They say it takes about 20 transitional forms [guesswork] to change one- specie into another. Charles Darwin said, “As by this theory innumerable transitional forms must have existed, why do we not find them embedded in countless numbers in the crust of the earth? Good question Charlie! The number of intermediate links between all living and extinct species must have been inconceivably great!
      A note on Comparative anatomy
      This not evidence for evolution. It just means that when you have a good design you use it to create a variety of species. For example: the foot, knee and ankle. Man invented the wheel, utilizing it on carts, bicycles, cars, trams, steering wheels etc.
      Evolution is on trial here not Creation.
      If there were a number of evolutionists in a room with one creationist, who do you think would have the legitimate right to throw a stone? If the creationist said to the evolutionists show me fossil evidence of macro-evolution on a grand- scale. All the evolutionists would have to leave the room one by one, beginning at the eldest to the youngest; he would be left alone in the room. The creationist would be the one that had the legitimate right to throw stones at all the evolutionists, but he could not do so. Being a Christian he would show love and have mercy upon the willingly ignorant, praying that they may come to their senses! Being caught up in evolution being your occupation when suddenly the light comes on is not an easy position to find yourself in. As one molecular biologist said to me anonymously, that he could see design in all living organisms but he could not say he didn’t believe in evolution or he would be out of a source of income, words to the effect.
      Objectivity of Science
      “One cannot be exposed to the law and order of the universe without concluding that there must be design and purpose behind it all. To be forced to believe only one conclusion that everything in the universe happened by chance [my opinion doesn’t make sense] would violate the very objectivity of science itself. They [evolutionists] challenge science to prove the existence of God. But must we really light a candle to see the sun? It is in scientific honesty that I endorse the presentation of alternative theories for the origin of the universe, life and man in the science classroom. It would be an error to overlook that the universe was planned rather than happening by chance.”
      Dr. Wernher von Braun [Father of American rocket and space program]
      The problem today is communism and a lack of scientific honesty, because evolutionists are hostile towards belief in God. This teaching is all part of the globalist agenda which will end in tears.
      I would have liked to see Richard Dawkins debate a man like this.

That's what it is, cuz it doesn't represent the value, importance, or what matters most in the lifespan of a Human.., it turns anything created for the majority to simply enjoy & maybe no longer worry about, into a service provided by the upper class, for which can not be paid off Ever! Basic needs made into a Service for which cost you to have automatically.., is Slavery. Try to get that Fact into people's minds..., Careful, their head may explode.., unbelievable...

      The secret atheist/agnostic god. I HATE your god, the god of nothing. Your god claims to have given us the universe, fine-tuning of the universe for life, life from non-life, information for life before and after it began, the laws of nature, etc, etc, when we know that your god of nothing can do nothing. Your god of nothing has nothing to offer and its followers only offer nothing of evidence for their god of nothing. That makes them nothing of importance but the followers of the god of nothing are so delusional that they think they do have something to offer to defend their god of nothing.
      www.talkorigins.org/faqs/abioprob/originoflife.html
      The true God beats the crap out of the atheist/agnostic god of nothing.
      It's the atheistic/agnostic types that supply the greatest comedy. They think the universe came about by natural means. There's NO science for it and ALL the science we know proves that creation had to be supernatural and done by a supernatural creator, but...., not to atheists/agnostics. Isn't that funny?!
      You can't do it because you devoted your life to the god of nothing and love being a dumbass.---Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it.----
      Then the extreme order we have in our universe that defies all physics, but....., not to atheists/agnostics. It's just happened by mere chances even though we prove it can't happen by chance. Funny!

      Many have brought up such issues on how funny it is.

      Then, what this life did after it started by mere chance can't happen by science, but....., atheists/agnostics believe it did. Funny!
      Life takes information to form and proceed on. But to atheists/agnostics, chaos through time gave us information. Although it's even hard to write such a ridiculous statement, they believe it. All one can do is laugh at such stupidity.

      I've kept this very basic and brief. I can provide much deeper, yet there's no need to since each point proves there is no explanation for such things to have happened naturally. This IS evidence against such things happening naturally. Lame excuses of why it can still have happened naturally with no science to support it are just that, lame excuses.
      There's a ton more. If you want a laugh, see what atheists/agnostics believe.

      Time will tell its own story! The teaching of Darwinian Evolutionary Religion has given license to lawlessness, like there is no one to answer to for moronic behaviour. It has given birth to countless criminal acts of drug dealing, theft, murder, fornication, adultery, contract killing etc. It has promoted suicide particularly among young people. Darwinian Evolutionary Religion promotes fear and distrust greed and selfishness among people. It promotes wars; this religion is a dangerous damnable heresy and has done more damage than any other religious belief in history. It will be responsible for Armageddon the last great world war which will warrant the return of our Lord Jesus Christ in order to stop man destroying himself through selfishness and greed. Hitler justified his war based upon the evolutionary concept “Survival of the Fittest” but he went down with all on board! China, Russia and North Korea live by the same destructive rules. There have been a number of atrocities committed since Darwin’s book came out in 1859. This belief system has shed much blood. The wicked live by faith in evolution, we shall see who is right! Richard Dawkins mocks the Ten Commandments and those who believe in them. David Attenborough also mocks God by his continual Mantras of millions of years in his nature programmes. Richard Dawkins, David Attenborough and others, plus the media who promote the belief in Darwinian Evolutionary Religion have blood on their hands, because what you believe determines how you behave! Jesus was clear: Men shall give an answer for every idle word spoken. This also includes those in church denominations who do not teach the purity of the gospel account. Jesus did not lie to us, but told us the whole truth and nothing but the truth. The gospel of Jesus Christ gives belly ache to those who love what God calls sin. There is always a place of repentance at the foot of the cross, where Father God manifested his love for the world, by taking his only begotten Son to Calvary to be crucified for the sins of the world in order to bring us back to God, thus he created an open door; back to Father’s heart, a place of acceptance. The just shall live by faith! Salvation has been designed by God upon the lines of faith! Oh the wisdom of God! Righteousness exalts a nation but sin is a reproach to any people!

      @twenty twenty The thing is, the theory of quantum mechanics can explain and predict the behavior of particles amazingly well. The theory of gravity allows you to predict the trajectories of falling particles really well too. A theory is a hypothesis made based on existing observations to make predictions about the future. Some of them are wrong, some of them are right. Sure, there are people who present incorrect theories as if they are true. Not all theories are like that.
      And your talk about justice and purity sounds like you're a moral objectivist. The problem is that morality stops making sense when you consider that a time will come when the human race goes extinct, whether because of their own stupidity, an intergalactic collision or the sun turning into a red giant and roasting us all. When there are no moral beings left, morality ceases to exist. Until then, enjoy your purity and righteousness.

      I do not respect him because he is vitriolic towards a God he does not believe in. How ironic! Dinosaurs Contemporary with Humans
      Dr Don Patton PhD in geology studied at Indiana State University, Cambridge U.K and finally finished at Queensland University Australia, after 15 years of work, he earned an accreditation which was withdrawn by Professor Wilson who was appointed Head of Department of Geology and Mineralogy at the Queensland University between 1960 to 1986; because they did not like giving degrees to Creationists. He had to work another two years before he finally got his accreditation for his PhD.
      He did excavations at Glen Rose Texas at the Paluxy River Bed, which yielded dinosaur footprints and human footprints in the same rock strata being Cretaceous lime stone that is supposed to be 140 million years old! Dinosaur bones can be eroded and redeposited, they can also be intrinsically buried and here is the difference, you cannot do that with dinosaur and human tracks that have formed from sedentary mud and have turned into hard rock. The Paluxy River bed contains dinosaur footprints that you can walk in alongside human footprints, destroying the myth that dinosaurs lived millions of years before man, they were contemporary. When sediment was washed out of the human footprints, you could see clearly 5 toes and relative heel prints in pristine condition. Human footprints, seen inside dinosaur tracks; which is conclusive evidence. There were 135 dinosaur tracks but 14 human tracks in a right to left direction, going from right to left through the dinosaur tracks, some beside and within, clear evidence for those of a sound mind. Evolutionists enjoy the term erosion, but it does not fit with the actual observed evidence. These have not been carved as they were excavated from under overbearing rocks. You cannot have erosion as an answer to pristine patterns of human footprints. These are desperate remarks from evolutionists who love to grasp at straw men. They were not carved, it is not logical; how do you get underneath overbearing rocks? The layers are about 6 feet of alternating clay and lime stone, and so the reasoning by evolutionists does not make any sense. Dr Don Patton presented his findings to the Tennessee State University to a group of senior geologists; he showed the tracks and explained the process of coming to his conclusion: dinosaurs and humans were contemporary. There were about 50 Grad Students of geology present, they could not argue with his findings, so they looked back to the Head of the Department for a response. His rely was ridiculous to say the least. He said, we do not know whether back then, that there were dinosaurs with human feet. Then Dr Patton replied and we do not know whether humans had dinosaur feet and he went on to say, if they were human tracks would they look any different than todays? The Head of the Department didn’t like that answer, so he just walked away. The Curator of the Dallas Museum of Natural History came down and so the evidence and went away upset, then he came again and went away upset. He came back the third time, having been thinking about the problem and said to Dr Patton, I know what these are, even though they look like human tracks, they really are not human tracks, they were made by aliens! He was as serious as he could be. They simply do not want to accept what is clear pristine evidence. Dr Patton replied, if they are aliens and more intelligent than us; being from a distant galaxy what are they doing walking about barefoot? He didn’t like that answer so he walked away. Dr Don Patton has presented his evidence to about 100 universities in America with no positive outcome in recognition of the facts. The Darwinian box is so hardly jammed upon their heads they cannot get it off and see sense. I have no respect for evolutionists who deliberately suppress, ignore and disregard any evidence against evolution.

He still lives in Oxford. His praise of the warmonger John McCain as a good man, his utter betrayal of Julian Assange are only two of the monstrous views from this privileged buffoon.

Lead/ Uranium for an example: You can find rocks with radio= isotopes in them decaying, but you do not know the consistency of the rock at the very beginning: how much lead verses uranium was contained within it. Nobody knows! No scientist was present to see the decay process begin, just like no scientist was present to see chemicals come together and form living cells billions of years ago! Give me a break, give me some science, things I can observe, test and study. As for lead being found in a rock relative to uranium; there are other decaying elements that also turn into lead and leave no trace, that they were there in the beginning. All your assumptions, suppositions, presuppositions, speculative thinking all revolves around Darwinian Evolution being their axis of rotation. You know that coal seams, diamonds, gas and oil all contain carbon and are found in the geology of the earth, carbon only dates in thousands of years, not millions of years.

      I've copied and pasted it below.
      In a 2018 article for Progress in Biophysics and Molecular Biology, Edward Steele et al. concede the following.
      “The transformation of an ensemble of appropriately chosen biological monomers (e.g. amino acids, nucleotides) into a primitive living cell capable of further evolution appears to require overcoming an information hurdle of superastronomical proportions, an event that could not have happened within the time frame of the Earth except, we believe, as a miracle. All laboratory experiments attempting to simulate such an event have so far led to dismal failure.”
      At what point do we really say we don't know, and we have tried everything we possibly can and the more we try the more we realize how impossible life from non life becomes. Therefore the only logical conclusion is that God actually must have done it.

      You seem to have missed my point.
      I’m sure Dr Tour understands the science. He just decided NOT to include it, in his lecture.
      I can only assume, it was because by omitting it, it leaves a “supposed” gap in the scientific knowledge of Abiogenesis.
      And that newly manufactured gap is a perfect to put his God claim into.
      I suppose Dr Tour might just be unaware of all the data (the stuff he missed out) but I personally think that is unlikely.

    If the universe was created by an "intelligence," it would've been an accident. These laws may be complicated, but they are in no way "fine-tuned." Life may exist in this universe, and that's kind of an "accomplishment," but these laws you seem to have such high reverence for basically doom all life to extinction after enough time has passed. It's kind of ludicrous to think that this universe's physics were created on purpose.

    Hello, I want to explain why I am not believing:
    What is the boiling point of water ? If it is pure water under 1 atm atmosphere pressure, it is 100 degrees Celsius. You can repeat it 1000 times and you will find out that it is always the same result. But as soon as you change the atmospheric pressure, e.g. by doing the heating on mount Everest, you will find out it is boiling earlier, you can again repeat it and get the same results. By adding salt, you will find out that it is now boiling later. But under same conditions you will again get the same results. That's why it is possible to make measuring devices like a thermometer. Imagine you try to measure a temperature and you get different results under the same conditions; the measuring device would be useless.
    So under same conditions you get the same results F(x), under different conditions or initial variables or parameters (x) you get different results.
    Now to the problem, religions are promising two different results, heaven (F1) or hell (F2). What are the parameters for going to heaven (or hell), being good, having faith, being patient, being helpfull, being adequate intelligent (to have faith or not to have faith), live long enough to go to hell (babies go to heaven) etc.
    So, if there are two results, the initial (given) parameters (or the resultant of them) cannot be the same. So if the initial parameters for heaven or hell are differntly distributed to people, can we speak about a fair god ? Do you believe in an unfair god ? I don't.

      ‏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
      ‏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
      ‏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 could write an entire book of bullshit today about how if I click my heels three times on a full moon I can turn into a bird and in 1000 years time someone could read that and make the same argument people make for believing the bible ("they were there, we weren't").
      What's more, some future archaeologist could uncover any work of modern fiction and it would have the same likelihood of being true as the bible (which is to say, poor to none). However, a thousand years from now hopefully no one would believe my hypothetical bullshit story because they would know to apply the scientific method for determining whether a hypothesis has merit. I could write all this and be lying, but I could also be so delusional that I really truly believe it, and I could write it because I want to share this insight with the world and that's fine, but I would *still* be wrong and I would hope future scientists would call me out on that.
      Furthermore, the idea that using leeches is a great way of getting rid of diseases is also a practice that spans millennia, yet would you reject modern medicine for this great insight if you contracted a deadly disease? No. Unless you are severely mentally ill, the answer is no, and the same applies for all scientific principles because they all come about the same way, and what's more *are open to criticism* and therefore change (for the better, hopefully). The world is far more wondrous and the universe far more amazing than any magical yet cruel fairytale would have you believe

There are quite a lot of them. Infinitely many, in fact. Let's start naming a few: space leprechauns, moon dragons, underpants gnomes, sky-dwelling crab-bird-people, sea-dwelling bird-crab people, djinns, ghosts, demons, devils, cosmic unicorn flatulence, aliens from the future, future humans from the future, aliens from humans from aliens from the future who sent humans back in time to create humanity, virgin births, celestial metrosexual vampire marmot gods... I can back up any of these thing with faith alone by religious logic.
      We could go all f*cking day with this futile bullsh*t. How does anyone know this... that... whatever. There are lots of things we don't know yet. Does that mean it's worth entertaining random bullsh*t to simplify and instantly answer questions about the natural world? NO!!! And it's dangerous because it fosters separation from reality and the threats to the real world. Like climate change for instance. If you don't know something, you shouldn't invent gigantically irrational, infeasible explanations like a "god" as even an optional explanation. It is such a specific, narrow-minded, singular, static, and unevidenced view to hold that it is better to not give it ANY thought at all, much like the few other "faith" based things I listed above. The question "how does anyone know" isn't even relevant. The point is that we cannot yet and should not pretend to know a shred more than can be ascertained or inferred with state of the art, objective, scientific observation.

It is actually a very convincing proposition that our universe IS a black hole...although the consensus appears to be not really, and the increasing expansion rate is actually a very serious puzzle at the current time.
      Certainly we may come to refine models and we could assert that these other regions do in fact exist, this cannot, it appears, be experimentally measured in any meaningful way...and so it's just bootless speculation!

    I have a theory about God. Let's say there was no God and universe was created out of nothing and in that universe life flourished somewhere, an intelligent life and those creatures got so very intelligent that they could create their own universe and they created our universe and now we call them God. How does that sound :P

      +beshj Atheists really are a strange bunch. It is not difficult to comprehend that we do really exist and that the Universe exists. God or the Creator as I prefer to say, is self-evident, because the Creation exists. If the Universe did not exist then it would not exist. The fact is, it does exist. Therefore Creation itself exists, to belittle it and pretend that you understand it fully and that it is 'simply matter' or some other childish way of describing the un-describable is simply to show your pathetic ignorance. You are very sad if you cannot see 'God or the Creator 'everywhere. All matter has come from some kind of a Creation moment. Hence, Dawkins & Krauss are 'assholes'.

      Kelly Clifford-Banks i can comprehend it, but there is no evidence. If you're a theist then you're a moron, if you're a deist then slightly less of a moron, but still a moron all the same. Not having answers doesnt mean making up fairy tales, we search for the answers and we find evidence to back our claims.

      wow dude i love your theory. u need a name for it now. a cool name like x theory. but that very much could be the case. infact if indeed there was or is a god, i beleive it would be something along those lines rather than all mighty being.

      I have something similar but here read mines.
      I imagine there was civilization before that unlocked all the secrets to their place in space and time. They found out, they were alone. To them life was void, with no meaning. They realized that the most beautiful thing about living is the wonder of not knowing....so they created an infinite complex puzzle (multiverse) and shipped seeds of life into it.
      They created their purpose, by giving purpose to something (us and perhaps other aliens in other universes).
      I still need to polish it but this is the main idea.
