    Middle Ground is back!! Thanks everyone for watching this highly requested episode. As always, we are not saying science and religion necessarily have to exclude each other - there are religious scientists out there! Instead, we are exploring two sides that society often pits against each other in hopes of finding middle ground #radicalempathy. Let us know in the comments below what future episodes you'd like to see!

      Because in the end, no one can claim any of their beliefs with 100% certainty. Everyone in this video walked a road to get to where they are now, and each road was completely different. Meaning that each person here understands that they can't think less of each other for not having the same beliefs, but can only explain how they came to their own beliefs.
      We should all be more respectful of each other, because that's the only time problems start to arise. When we start to infringe on the rights of others beliefs.

When a claim can't be shown to comport to the evidence, then the claim is dismissed. When multiple lines of empirical evidence converge, in inferential-space, upon a singular conclusion and no lines of evidence refute the conclusion -- then that suffices as proof. It's a justified true belief - or knowledge.

      whilst I agree that everyone in this video were all very mature, i don't think that coming to the table for that particular prompt is a signifier of that maturity.
      Take the flat earthers in the 'flat earthers vs scientists' video. I can picture every single one of them stepping forward to that prompt because they are all self proclaimed 'free thinkers' and their whole identities revolve around questioning what they've been taught. But none of them would listen to reason, they would all interrupt the scientists as they tried to explain themselves, and overall they were very immature. But I am 99% sure they they would all claim that they 'question their own beliefs'

      This dialogue was missing a Muslim. The question of things that can't be explained by one's belief applies to all the 3 religious guests, but it doesn't apply to Islam. Islamic view explains everything, encourages people to search and experience the universe in every aspect of it, and the Quran actually emphasizes that the more one learns and searches, the more one believes, and this happens only in Islam.
      If you would like more information, you can search the multitude of Islamic literature. I would highly recommend iERA, Sapience Institute and Blogging Theology.

      In general, Buddhism is more a way of life than a religion. The main branches are Theravada, Mahayana and Tibetan Buddhism.
      Contrary to popular belief, they don’t believe in a deity or god. Buddha was not a god, he was a man who achieved enlightenment by discovering the Middle Way/Middle Path. Basically living both a life of excess/wealth/luxury and a life of extreme poverty and realising that balance was better than excess.
      Buddhists believe in reincarnation, how you act in life depends on who/what you’ll reincarnate as, and that one can break from the chain of reincarnation (Enlightenment) through meditation, living a good life, etc.

    I do participate in Buddhism events regarding my passed relatives & ancestors, enjoy Christmas, sometimes go to various Buddhism & Shintoism temples during my walk and pray, all as a cultural custom or a seasonal event and not so much as a believer,which is also a very common thing in Japan, even though it may sound weird.
    Also, experiencing half my life in Protestant school and kindergarten I think I have positive influence from it, as well as Buddhism influence from living in Japan. So for me, I guess I’m made by pieces that I like out of each philosophy even though I don’t identify as part of a specific religion.

      Christ talked with everybody but still preached repentance and turning from sin.
      It's not about judging so much because Christians believe that God has already judged us for our sin through the 10 Commandments.
      Our job is to tell the world about the coming judgment, and the way to be saved from that - repentance and faith in Jesus Christ.
      Most people don't want to hear that they're sinners who need a Savior.

      O people, know by us we are actually one descendant, namely the descendants of the prophet adam as and siti hawa,
      the differences that exist today are because our mindset is not the same, there are those whose minds are intelligent, smart, mature and some are late thinking.
      and there are those who do not use their brains at all to think and do not want to think, thus giving rise to various ethnic groups, nationalities, languages, cultures, traditions, ethnicities, slogans, dances, and diverse religions.
      all that Allah created so that we can get to know each other, be able to respect each other, be able to realize each other, that life in the world is certainly lacking and there are advantages of each.
      and so that we want to learn and learn the weaknesses and strengths of ourselves, our tribe in our language, all of them have been outlined in this life.
      this life has been arranged so that everything is balanced. because what we believe is if in the world the minds of all humans are the same, you can imagine yourself, ribeuutt explain ... hahaha
      so that's why the human mind is not the same. There are intelligent and intelligent people, some are only using their reasoning just to deceive other human beings into fulfilling their own interests.
      then what are our similarities as humans?
      humans actually have the same conscience, feeling and feeling.
      and the purpose of our lives is the same. every human being in this world has the same purpose in life, which is to live happily and want to live safely.
      happiness and safety in life are our main goals as humans.
      who are humans who don't want to live happily and live in a safe place?
      because in a safe place that we can comfortably live this life.
      in a safe and comfortable place that will create prosperity and prosperity to make this life peaceful.
      our enemies are the same, that is, what is in us, selfishness and lust.
      fighting the enemy that looks is easy. the difficult thing is to fight ourselves. admit that our selves are weak and there are many shortcomings in us.
      we always boast about things that really aren't ours. are we proud of the assets we have, the position we are using, just for what?
      for the sake of ourselves. we forget outside ourselves there are still many who lack.

    Just watched this immediately after watching flat earthers vs scientists. Such massive differences between these two videos. This was surprisingly peaceful plus they were so respectful. I especially liked the Buddhist monk. The way he speaks it so calm and peaceful.
    Also I couldn't help straighting my back whenever he sat down 🤣

      I highly recommend reading the book: *"Secular Buddhism: Eastern Thought for Western Minds" by Noah Rasheta* If you want a short introduction to Buddhism from a secular point of view, without any of the religious and ritual aspects of it.

      When they were asked the question if there are things their beliefs cannot explain I do not understand why not one of the scientists moved? Surely there are things that they believe in that they cannot fully explain? What about gravity, since when do we know why gravity works? When we observe a photon it will behave differently to when it is not being observed by a person, but from what I know we also do not know why this occurs. Do these examples fit this question or am I just having a slow day lol.

      @@Faxy95 well, science is not a set standard when it comes to laws and principles, it is dynamic and ever expanding. So they probably do believe that science can explain everything, but just not right now. But eventually we will get an explanation for everything through the scientific process.
      Also there are many theories present for the 2 scenarios you gave. Theories are equally valuable and sometomes accepted in science as laws. Despite not yet being proven.

    The monk wasn't saying that he believes he will continue living as a being after his death, he was saying more that he believes we are part of something bigger, something perhaps we may not be able to comprehend. In the same way that the bacteria inside of us that makes us function isn't aware of the impact it has in its lifetime.
    This is how some people like to interpret reincarnation.

    See, this is what a mature and respectful conversation looks like!! We need more of this in the world. You don’t have to be at each other’s throats or insult the other person’s intelligence. It’s okay to disagree. Treating beliefs that contradict your own as a personal attack is not constructive.
