We either love him or hate him... Admire him or despise him... James, you're one hell of an interesting man. You've contributed so much to the scientific community!
The only people that dislike James Randi are shills, scammers and liars whose "careers" have been shot down by this seemingly harmless little gnome. Everyone else likes him because he strives for truth and what is real, which is something any sane and cooperative human being would also prefer to pursue. What's more, he is always trying to maintain the utmost respect for people even if he doesn't like them (uri geller for example). In this way, I love seeing when people are upset with him - I like to bet on how long they can go before exposing their ulterior motives behind disliking Randi. There's always a few.

+Fat Lip Oh dear, now its the Jews ! Again you can't spell and your grammar is atrocious. Why would anyone with a brain take an idiot like you seriously ?

Every premise presented in the beginning of the Bible requires an enormous amount of faith. Evolution does not require the same leaps, as evolution can be studied in little pieces, evidence can be absorbed. Scientific research can be duplicated. Observations can be understood. Human observations by people who have dedicated their lives to the search of truth. The Bible is a decree. They are entirely dissimilar.
The Astro physicist in question was Sam Nichols. A colleague/friend Steve Gratton attended soon after he graduated from London University. The James Randi show. Mike Roll,Director of The Campaign for Philosophical Freedom may have more info on the event.Sorry I can't be of further assistance.
Kurzweil has one huge strike against him because of writing that book, and aside from that is surrounded by uncertainty and huge claims; James Randi, on the other hand, is a true voice for reason and the scientific method, and provides me with no uneasiness, chiefly because he advocates it, but also because of his way. By the way, I forgot to say in my first comment that RayandTerry is a website selling homeopathic drugs..... Please share your thoughts, anyone. But b4 that, one last thing...
It's obvious how your mind works but not everyone, believe it or not, is motivated by financial gain. I believe Randi is one of those and if his aim (as I believe it to be) is to promote rational thinking and debunk paranormal bullshit he would be even more effective if he refreshed his material - which takes us back to my original point.
Notice towards the end somewhere, Randi does acknowledge despite the validity of Kurzweil's claims, it's not an all or nothing deal- that if he's wrong, colossal advancements will be inevitably made (just without overkilled promises of things like a singularity). I've done research about this, folks, and I'm 21 and in the field of computer science, and honestly I think this way without even hearing Randi out. Honestly, big things are coming, singularity or not; and if not 20 years, still soon.
That's right. But asking questions has nothing to do with superstition. Any speculation that arises from scientific progress, are not accepted until empirical evidence can be presented to support it. If evidence disproves an existing model, that model is updated with the new information. A lot of journalists will talk about how a discovery "sends scientists back to the drawing board." But this assumes that scientists ever leave the drawing board. Re-thinking things is a big part of science.
Wiki is variable. Nature found Wiki was quite good for science articles. For most most major science topics, most wiki articles provide excellent summaries for the lay person with links to actual research.
God damn it, he got me with the beard trimmer twice. Once in a previous video and once now. It's such a small thing, you really don't pay much attention to it. It's like what Leonard Dicaprio's character's father said in Catch Me If You Can. Something along the lines of: "Why do the Yankees always win? Because the other team is always looking at the stripes." In other words, you can distract people from the critical details and draw their attention away from obvious flaws in your lie. I noticed the microphone looked weird, but wasn't really invested in it because I was focused on him the whole time. It's simple, but clever.
When Randi dies, its gonna be a sad day. he is a legend and nobody can impose logical thinking into a mass public better than him. I can see nobody replacing him where ever there is bullshit randi would be there
The research into it can be reproduced. Evolution itself requires natural stressors that are difficult to duplicate in a lab setting (but that would be an interesting experiment).
I like to think that somewhere in the world, at some time, James will flick through the comments to videos like this, and maybe he'll see this comment telling him: "thank you for being you" 😊
I have to wonder about the person that assumes getting a PhD will make them impervious to being tricked just by nature of being a PhD. I mean... is someone that stupid really worthy of the title "doctor"?
Shades of Asimov, certainly, more specifically from "The Last Question," perhaps... but also shades of the Technocore from Dan Simmons' "Hyperion Cantos." Hmmm... I wonder, I wonder, I wonder...
When he is thanking his old dead colleague (at 34;28) and he looks up to the ceiling and says "Martin, thank you", to whom was he talking and where was he looking?
You completely misunderstand the genetic science behind Y-chromosomal Adam and mitochondrial Eve. Y-chrom Adam was never alive at the time of Mito Eve, nor in the same region. Y-chrom Adam and Mito Eve were not the first humans. They were not the only humans alive at their time, nor the only ones who have passed down genes. They are not the sole origin of all human genetic code today. They're simply the most recent common ancestors. It in no way matches the Genesis myth.
If Mr.James Randi broke all of Harry Houdini's records, then Mr.James should be the number 1 magician in all of known history. Even Jesus would pale in comparison. Oh, but I'm assuming that Houdini is the best magician in history.
Here's the thing... I am a Christian. I am unashamed of it. However, I think faith healers and psychics are frauds much like Randi. Mr. Randi is an atheist and I don't agree with his spiritual beliefs or lack thereof, but I do agree with him that psychics prey on the weak and it is incredibly disgusting. Just a small example of how those who have opposing views can agree. I have a great amount of respect for Mr. James Randi.
Hitchens* And he destroys superstition by using facts, arguments, debating morality and logic. Journalism is not the bigger part of his debating style.
NO to the 2030 Agenda. NO to the Singularity. I do not miss James Randi, honestly. But I forgive him. I must say that I was not at all nice to Randi in 1999, and, understandably, in his reaction he was not nice to me, but thanks to Michael Shermer I apologized, the confrontation didn’t escalate, and it all happily ended with a polite handshake between Michael and myself.
creationism requires a LOT more faith than evolution. Which only requires you to have faith that species are not a mass of single species that magically popped up over the years, but that individual members of a species over time evolved into the next species. Genesis is a myth by definition. the very definition you have. most likely, Yahweh were originally a god called "EL" a mountain/desert god. Over the years he changed. at first he was of a pantheon, then monotheistic.
..est disgrace to humanity. I suddenly got the urge to surf my memories of pioneers and leaders of reason and science, if any of them may had anything to say about Ray Kurzweil or Terry Grossman (I needed to find out about Kurzweil's integrity). I got to Google and stumbled across a nice blog about James Randi's performance here. The blog made it sound like it was behind closed doors, so I am very thankful and surprised to see it here, an hour's worth, too. All I know is this now:
When he first got with his husband we all thought it was a younger man taking advantage. They were together for several decades and remained totally in love. Assume nothing.
Though I do believe in evolution, you cant say the Bible is COMPLETELY wrong. Science shows we all came from the same two people, though it is believed more than two existed. When biologists analyze the past of a species they often run into what they call genetic bottlenecks. Cheetahs had such an extreme genetic bottleneck recently (that is, so few remained) that all the Cheetahs we have now are essentially close relatives.
"Not a single claim of a paranormal event or ability has ever stood up to careful scrutiny." That's an assumption. Just because you haven't seen it, sir, doesn't mean that others aren't just as qualified as you and haven't seen it.
It was a James Randi show...anyone is free to attend, Randi was making the presentation not Sam Nichols. Mainstream science UK still will not touch survivalist evidence which is why its not in most journals. One of the leading proponents of consciousness after brain death is the neuropsychiatrist Dr Peter Fenwick his work corresponds with his American counterpart Raymond Moody.

James Randi has done more good for humanity than any pastor or minister.
To be fair he's done more good than 99% of humanity will do in their lives _combined_
We're pretty useless, on average... 😅
