    Excellent video. However I would say that from an evolutionary perspective there is a very strong adaptive advantage towards surviving and reproducing if an individual organism's observations of nature and ability to reason and react effectively to those observations is stronger rather than weaker. This perception/consciousness does not require a creator/designer to exist but is actually a major driving force in evolutionary biology.

    I've heard Prof. Lawrence Krauss deny that he believes anything. So I want to ask him whether he believes that he denies that he believes anything. What does he mean by "believe?" You can define knowledge as a justified, warranted true belief. If that definition is accurate, then when you know something, that presupposes that you believe it, too. But believing differs from knowing because you can believe a false statement. Though Dr. Krauss may be a great physicist, maybe he needs to learn about logic and philosophy.

      @@ZacharyCath When he debates whether God exists, Krauss seems too philosophically ignorant to debate the question competently. He's like Christopher Hitchens when Hitchens debates Prof. William Lane Craig. Like Hitchens, Krauss says a lot. But he doesn't criticize his opponent's arguments. If I debated quantum mechanics with Dr. Krauss, that would humiliate me because I haven't studied physics. But I probably know enough about Thomism to debate St. Thomas's cosmological argument shows that God is real.
      Dr. Krauss makes a category error each time he talks about different gods. Sure, he can use the word ""god" to stand for Zeus. But if he knew what classical theists mean by "God," he would see that it doesn't even make sense to think God and Zeus are members of the same kind. Zeus is a fictional object. But if he exists, he has a cause because he has parents. God has no cause. If there were no God, there would be no causes, since there would be nothing at all.

      ​@@williammcenaney1331 My favorite way to respond to the "many gods" arguments is by conceding it... ;) . By this, I mean it's as you allude to...God isn't a "god". The Lord tells us this in Exodus 3:14, when he says to Moses: "I AM THAT I AM".

    _"Faith and reason are not opposites, but rather are two different ways of coming to know the truth."_
    You mean faith and reason-ING, right?
    Both are acts or habits of reas-ON. The one faculty that does know the truth - or doesn't know it.

    There is faith in both realms of religion and science. Faith in God or God's and holy books and texts is in religion. Faith or confidence in research, data and findings is in science.
