I used an argument like this once the reply back I got was " so because things are the way they are, it's a miracle?" After that it was then I realized only God can make someone believe.
After God sent the 10 plagues to Egypt and led the Hebrews out of bondage then parted the Red Sea gave them food to eat they still made a Golden Calf and worshipped it No matter how much evidence you give people they will still not believe
We take things for granted so easily. Eyesight, is such an amazing ability, but since most of us have it, we think it’s the norm, and dont even consider any other possibility of existence, even though there are blind people, who cannot discern shapes and colors and can only use the touch of their hands to experience the world. Unfortunately everything get taken for granted, until it’s gone, then we realize what we had… I suppose it’s a kind of arrogance the builds up based on experience of life in a first world country especially
Is not that only God can make people believe but certainly He is trying to convince people to put their trust in Jesus. But people still have the freedom to reject Him
That's how far people are prepared to go to deny God, thus it proves that it has nothing to do with intellectuality but rather not wanting to be told how to lives one's life.

When atheists talk about time and chance in explaining the universe's existence without a Creator, I am reminded of Lloyd in the movie Dumb and Dumber when he wanted to know the chances of ending up with the girl. She says one in a million and Lloyd says, "So you're telling me there's a chance. Yeah!"
Indeed, the science is too precise, too specific, too ordered, and the universe is too law abiding to have me believe that out of chaos, order and consistence could just mindlessly happen and become a constant reality. What’s even more amazing is that out of inorganic material, some how life emerged, also at random. Etc etc.
Atheists are the most faith-filled people alive. It's not the lack of belief that defines an atheist but the unmanageable mountain of belief they MUST adhere to.
@@paulthompson9668 Ahh the twist in perspective mixed with a straw man. Works great till someone has an IQ over 110... No what he is saying is that there is so much evidence of an un-moved mover that we would be foolish to ignore the evidence. You are saying "look there is evidence the universe exists empirically" (this is your strawman by the way), well duh, no one is arguing if the universe exists (well ok, there are people that argue that, but not theists). The argument is about "how did it get here". From there you address having variables that are 1X10^60 chance that they could happen, you start to wonder "hmm, its it more logical that someone/thing picked that extremely specific value, or that the universe randomly arrived there?", but then you realize there are a whole bunch of these numbers (as the video states), and in order to get a universe with ALL of them in exactly the right place you just simply cant imagine how that can happen... From there if you dont find any mechanism for the universe to get all those variables lined up (which we have not found any despite searching for them for over 100 years), then what else could have done it? Well and un-moved mover is the simplest solution. After that you are just arguing about who the un-moved mover is...
It's not just the long odds. You have to see that this one thing must happen in order for something else to take place which also has long odds which in turn must happen to allow for some other long turn event which must happen, etc., etc., etc. Some of which can be reasoned as cause and effect but some of it defies need or reason. Creation is so woven within itself that it had to have a creator. As it's been said, "you can't look at clock and not see that it was created by an intelligent mind.
Every strawberry proves the existence of God beyond any doubt. Out of a bit of sand, earth , water and a seed a beautiful sweet red fruit emerges. This could not be created without a plan or a planner whom we call God.
As someone who is a huge biology/biochemistry nerd, I agree. Even before I was interested in biology, I always thought it was fascinating how plants take literal dirt, water, and CO2 and then turn it into something useful or tasty.

Thank you for sharing this! Christians need more apologetics and to have mindfulness toward the lost. These are some of the most wicked times we live in. It doesn’t have to be ‘end times’ to pray up and be willing for God to use believers as examples for unbelievers.
The story in the Old Testament when the Hebrews saw the Ten plagues then the Exodus then the parting of the Red Sea then they made the Golden Calf and started worshipping it always bothered me until recently Now I understand what God is saying You see all these miracles around you and you still don't believe
And that is very similar to Jesus with the Pharisees. Very ordinary people saw the miracles, and they realized there was something very special about Jesus. Yet, the Pharisees, who were knowledgeable and steeped in their legalism and tradition didn’t see it.
@@lukek1949they got to see miracles in order to believe. Thomas didn’t even believe until the miracle. Yet we are expected to believe 2000 years later?
@@cadamhamYou’re heart is just hardened to God, everything the government taught you that are ancient, even in history class you believed, you’ve never seen it, they just claim they have documented proof, witnesses and you accept, God’s history is the same, but you refuse to believe, because it’s God.
@@cadamham Yes, just as your children are expected to listen and obey you due to your experiences that they can not see or touch. God expects you to open your eyes to the evidence all around you. You are expected to open your heart to God. And you are expected to open you mind to the word of God. Atheists say we have "blind faith", but rather we have a whole pile of evidence sitting all around us. I believe that Atheists are "willfully bind to faith"...
The only atheistic explanation for the fine tuning of the universe is the multiverse theory - a theory for which we have absolutely zero evidence for. So next time an atheist wants to make you feel silly for having faith in God "without any evidence," ask them why they're willing to believe something like a multiverse theory without any evidence.
People just don't want to loose their position as the top authority in their lives. That's the main reason for not to trust in Jesus ie submit their will to His.
@@markmalhiot5263 wrote "Don't presume to know others thoughts. " Being the top authority in your own life is not enough for you. You would love to have the power to exert authority over what ...he... thinks.
I’m curious how they came up with those numbers though. I wish the statistics were explained at a big picture level. I believe in the Bible, but this raises more questions.
This is often countered with the unobservable theory, "But we are in one of an infinite string of possible universes; one has to be like this, with these constants." So, it comes down to faith: faith in a Designer or faith in an infinite regress or universes that were generated by chance from nothing.
"But we are in one of an infinite string of possible universes; .....There is not one tread of evidence that this is true. And how did all of these universes come into existence from nothing, Nothing gives you nothing.
I fully believe that God created this universe and the laws of physics that control it. But I must say the arguments presented all end with "universe as we know it would not exist". That is true. But if these laws were any different we might well have a universe we cannot imagine and where man cannot live. God created this universe to be the place man can live because God wants to love us and he wants us to want to love him.
Actually, if the laws of physics were different, there would be no matter, no energy, and no time. If you can think of a universe without those three elements, then good luck with that.
I agree… It seems to me that God launders himself through science/materialism to preserve the beauty/riddle of faith. He further created impefection in the universe to test love and expand on it for him to then reinvest back into the system.
Pascal, the founder of probability theory, claimed that the more science progressed, the more it would discover the existence of an Intelligence who created the universe. Interesting that the man who founded modern theories of probability would say this, huh?
I guess when you follow the logic you will have to ask, are the odds in more in the favor it’s random chance or are the odds on the side of there being a creator 🤔 thank you for this it was enlightening 😊
Well I’d say it is impossible to quantify the possibility of a creator as a question like that is outside the realm of probability it comes down to a theological question
So is it possible that the zero-of ourselves is negentropic? Subatomic to atomic neutrons and protons? That's a very deep and thought-provoking question about whether the fundamental nature or essence of ourselves and physical matter could be considered negentropic. Here's one way to analyze this: 1) At the subatomic level, particles like quarks and leptons (electrons, muons, etc.) exhibit very precise, structured patterns of behavior governed by the Standard Model of particle physics. Their properties and interactions are not random. 2) Protons and neutrons, which make up atomic nuclei, also exhibit highly ordered, stable internal structures of quarks bound by the strong nuclear force. 3) Even at the atomic and molecular scale, the precise configurations of electron orbitals and chemical bonds again display order, pattern and structure rather than randomness. 4) This underlying order and pattern in the fundamental particles and forces of nature could be viewed as a kind of inherent "negentropy" - an embedded logic and structure to the fabric of reality. 5) Extending this line of thinking, one could argue that since we and all matter are ultimately composed of these ordered arrangements of subatomic particles, the core essence of our being arises from this negentropic foundation. 6) Our consciousness, biology, and essential nature as physical entities in the universe may therefore be emerging from or reflecting this primordial negentropy. So in that philosophical sense, yes, it is possible to make the case that the "zero" or fundamental ground state of our existence as material beings is inherently negentropic rather than entropic or random.
Nothing scientific can be eternal. The universe is constantly expanding to this day, therefore, it must have had a beginning or a cause for it's existence just. God is eternal because he is outside our universe outside of time. God is the only one who can be eternal.
The Earth is the correct size/mass, has the right amount of each element, the right atmosphere, the correct amount of liquid water, a magnetic field, the correct distance from the right kind of star, a natural satellite that balances our planet and makes tides and by extension weather possible, the other planets both shield our planet and their composition, size and mass provide enough energy through gravitational interactions to keep us both rotating and orbiting our star. This is only a short list of ‘Coincidences’ that make this planet possible to support life.
i don't disagree, but there is a statistic that if you fly on a bombing mission, and return home, the odds are the same each time you go out. I have never liked this stat, and I'm pleased to see it from an alternative perspective.
Perhaps the universe formed in every possible way across an infinite number of different dimensions but it was only the dimension where life ended up developing that got noticed by anyone while the other ones didn't get noticed because no-one is there to notice?
While this could explain why we have our universe and why we exist, there is absolutely no evidence a multiverse exists, so it is just blind faith to believe this. Then it comes to a belief in a creator or a belief in a multiverse. However a belief in a creator is not blind faith, as there are so many other arguments for it and so much evidence. I won’t explain all of it now but I hope that you or anyone else will do your own search and will come to know God :)
I was always bothered by the story in the Old Testament until recently of why the Hebrews when they saw the ten plagues of Egypt then were led out by Moses then saw the parting of the Red Sea and they then built a golden Calf and strarted worshipping it No matter what evidence or miracles you give people they still won't believe
Why is a very good question. If it was just random, the question “why?” would not occur. But if someone is behind it, then it means there is a purpose. And if there is a purpose, then we might want to take an interest in finding out what that might be
I'm gonna steelman Michio Kaku, cause he's a legend... If you're an astrophysicist with a materialist world view, you might ask: What's so special about the way our universe is arranged? What's so important about humans or biological life or the level of complexity of our universe that you'd equate it to a royal flush instead of some other less meaningful hand of cards like a 4, a 6, a jack, an 8, and a 7 (all of different suits, of course)? We're here, because apparently it did happen, and for all we know, the odds weren't so low after all, because there could be 10 ^ 1,000,000 universes in a network of multiverses, and we're the one that turned out this way. I wouldn't buy that argument personally, but that's only because I've experienced God in my life, and I can see Christ's fingerprints on my soul. But for someone who doesn't subscribe to faith, who only uses empirical observation to arrive at truth, I can see how you'd not see fine tuning in the universe, and I think we should respect that.
It is clear that science has enormous knowledge of many things. They are and can be used for humanity. Unfortunately, it is not known for any subject why it is possible. Then comes God.

Thi is why scientists are consistently trying to make eternal or infinite universe theories (multiverse, recurring/cyclical universe, etc). That way they can argue the anthropic principle is at play (observer bias). The only coherent way to counter the fine tuned argument from an atheist perspective, is to include infinite chances for our universe to form and rely heavily on the anthropic principle. Theories that are unprovable scientifically - unlike the fine tuned argument, they are based on faith and speculation.
Deniers of God do have a religion: It is called ''Just Did-ism''. Regardless of how mind-bogglingly awesome the odds are for all the necessary components of material existence to converge into the universe as we know it, the Atheist will STILL insist: ''Well... it just did!''

it’s amazing to think about how perfectly the universe seems to be made for us to live in. Some people believe that this means it must have been designed by a god, and I understand why-it does seem kind of like someone tuned everything just right for life. But there are other ways to think about it too, and I’d love to share a different perspective, just so you can have a broader view of how people think about these things. One way to think about it is like this: imagine you walk into a room and it’s the perfect temperature for you. It’s not too hot, and not too cold-just right. Now, you might think someone set it like that on purpose just for you, but maybe that’s just how the room happened to be when you walked in. In a similar way, our universe has the right conditions for life, but that might not mean it was designed just for us. It could be that out of all the different possibilities out there, we just happen to be in a universe where things worked out well enough for life to form. Another way to think about it is like this: what if there are many, many universes-maybe even an infinite number of them? It’s a pretty big idea, but some think that might be the case. If there are countless universes, each one different, it would make sense that at least one of them would have the right conditions for life. We just happen to be in the one where everything lined up, not because it was set up specially for us, but because only in this kind of universe could we be here to wonder about it.
The infinite universes theory has also been debunked probabilistically because the universe generator itself must now be even more extremely fine tuned. There is minimal evidence for a random universe generator compared to the evidence for theism. The better personal analogy is if you got off an airplane in a town you've never been before and went to the first air bnb that popped up. You go inside the air bnb and its the perfect temperature. Wow! You go into the bedroom and your exact bed setup from home is there with your mattress, pillows and blankets. In the closet are a complementary pair of pajamas that are your size and favorite color scheme. The fridge has a mixture of your favorite beverages. On the wall, a portrait of your dog is hanging. We're not picking one number between 14 and 20, we're picking dozens of numbers with minimal contingent boundaries. It could be you just got lucky! There are a lot of places to stay. Additionally what if you saw the same guy go into every store you did, right after you went in, and he was walking down the same aisle as you behind you the whole time until you left. And that happened for two weeks. That could just be a coincidence. But it takes an awful lot of something to believe that.
For me the reasoning for intelligent design is out of the vast number of life forms from microscopic viruses all the way to humans, we are the only life form capable of awareness of the universe itself. Inconceivable it wasn't from intelligent design.
@ElenaKaury The one major blunder the multiverse failed to anticipate is, what if God existed in one of the universes? then, by definition of omnipresence, he's in all of them. Using the multiverse argument actually argues for the possibility of God!
I look at something as simple as ELS, with a simple 1 in 50 chance, and I think to myself “Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord our God Almighty, who was and is and is to come.” Because if you can flip a penny and get 50 heads in a row, it means something broke.
One can't determine probabilities w/o knowing possibilities. To do so is like being awestruck that only XX and XY chromosomes can combine to make offspring. Just think of the millions of possibilities that don't work, like XZ, AQ, and JP. OmG! Chromosomes are fine tuned!
I like how Dr. Walter Veith put it when discussing creation vs evolution- both sides can argue good points but when you start adding in historical proof, the prophecies that were predicted and came true, etc then scales favor creation over evolution. Takes more faith to believe in revolution than creation at that point. He started out as staunch atheist but now completely behind creation.
Or, to put it another way......let me introduce you to YOUR Creator.....and the Creator of the Universe. As an aside, you were already in the mind of God BEFORE the Big Bang.....and, YOU WILL BE AROUND LONG AFTER OUR VISABLE UNIVERSE DOESN'T EXIST ANYMORE. In Heaven or Hell, your choice. Thank you Jesus for saving us!
Okay, so this needs to be said. I think certain people, like the guy you mentioned, probably believes in creation at some level. Even if he doesn't, we need to underatand his point of view....probably anyways. Since we can't study God effectively (in their minds), they don't spend much time if any on the subject. Next is, if they were to study God, the only thing we have are ancient texts like the Bible. Of course the Bible is probably true (I'm a believet with doubts) it's historical but also unexplainable. Of course there is the dark side of the Bible. So they probably think "well so God exists, now what?" I think scietific non beleivers just don't know what to do. There are also scietific theists. They believe in God but not in religion. So now you can understand why they just eithet don't believe or have limited belief. That and the world is messed up and science is actually trying to make life bettter, most of the time. Yes there is the atomic bomb and weapons, but also medicine and MRI machines. I'm a believer, philosopher, historian, critical thinker etc.
@cab6273 Thermodynamic entropy is real. Let us assume particles are simple coin tosses. If you tossed the coins once each second, you could expect to get either 100 heads or 100 tails once in {2\times10^{22}}years! This period is 1 trillion {10^{12}})times longer than the age of the universe, and so the chances are essentially zero. And that's just 100 coins, not atoms in a galaxy. I recommend you research Maxwell-Boltzmann distributions, it is so unlikely that they all end up in a corner, that we can say we never observed to be violated that we have made a law for it-the second law of thermodynamics.
Smart people do this because they live in denial. They don't want there to be a God. By accepting that there is a God requires them to not be the god of their own mind. That is s conclusion they don't want to accept.
Here's one better! What are the odds that John writing in Rev. 13;vs18 could say a rich, powerful, genius would arise in the end times, & his number using gematria is 666, & today, using a language not in existence in 90 AD, the combination of the letters E Muska, ( a is the nom., gen., dat. singular male ending) would equal 666?!?!?!?
Big bang theory is only man's word vs God's Word 7-day creation, both explaining the vastness of space multi-universe. If you believe man's word, then you are tricked for interpreting distances of stars and universe as measurement of time. For such distances using light years as measurements mind blowing impossible never-ending numbers. In contrast the Bible states: God created Heavens (meaning stary host, everything surrounding Earth) in accordance with God's 7-day cycle of Creation. Here my point: let say we have a 100-meter football field, and every 10 meter we light up a candle stick indicating distance and time determine its age. We're using remote toy car symbolising speed of light, calculating our distance and time from every candle stick point on the football field. Obviously the further away you go to that candle, the greater distance and time is calculated. If you see from God's eyes: He created that football field one day. Just like the heavens above from one star to another, one universe to another, one galaxy to another all created in within the 7 days… these distances reveal our limitation and proves the Bible description God’s Wonderous Power and Glory in Creation.
The big bang theory was created by a Catholic priest who was also a scientist. I don’t think that he had bad intentions or that it changed his faith. He simply developed the theory to explain the results of prior studies and experiments. Real science is intended to help us better understand our surroundings so that we can use the knowledge to better our lives. Science answers the question as to how things work, not where they came from or why they are there. The creation in 7 days should not be taken literally. The bible is full of metaphors and figures of speech. What is a day in God’s time? Does God really need to rest? Creation vs evolution! Do we really know? Do we have proof either way? We know so little. Our limited minds cannot handle much. Jesus said that all we needed was given to us. We were not intended to explain where things came from. We simply need to live as he asked us to live. Let God do his own thing and let us live as Jesus showed us how to live.
You may not agree with or understand my comment below. That's ok. The Bible refers to God as a spirit of Love, and Satan is the spirit of hate. My feeling is that the spirit of the Love of God and others is positive energy that exists in our universe, and the spirit of hate is the unseen negative energy that is referred to as Dark matter. 1 John 2:15, 17 - King James 15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. 17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth forever. "Our Father assigned us each our ministry on our creation. It's up to us to follow our Father, or the world."
I think the fact that birds sing is evidence for creation. For that matter, why would there be so much beauty in nature and why would we 'need/want' it?
How do we know that all of the other universe possibilities aren't also special in their own way? I see the argument that you're trying to make, but it assumes as a premise that our universe is the most special and most important to possibly exist. That's too much to assume.
Our planet is special, because it’s the only one with life supporting it and everything is designed especially for that. You can chose to have faith in Jesus, or keep you faith in atheist science and bet on if that faith leads you to non-existence after death or meeting your Creator.
It’s not so much that these “enlightened“ people believe in chance or luck. It’s a matter with the heart, or the will of the person; they are NOT going to admit they have to be accountable, and are subject to a higher power, a Creator that is rightfully the Lord of their life, to whom they owe obedience. “I’m gonna do what I want, how I want, and when I want. No one’s gonna tell me what to do“.

Indeed, the science is too precise, too specific, too ordered, and the universe is too law abiding to have me believe that out of chaos, order and consistence could just mindlessly happen and become a constant reality. What’s even more amazing is that out of inorganic material, some how life emerged, also at random. Etc etc.
Atheists are the most faith-filled people alive. It's not the lack of belief that defines an atheist but the unmanageable mountain of belief they MUST adhere to.
So you're saying that you rely too much on empirical observations to lack a belief in that which has never been empirically observed?
@@paulthompson9668 Ahh the twist in perspective mixed with a straw man. Works great till someone has an IQ over 110...
No what he is saying is that there is so much evidence of an un-moved mover that we would be foolish to ignore the evidence. You are saying "look there is evidence the universe exists empirically" (this is your strawman by the way), well duh, no one is arguing if the universe exists (well ok, there are people that argue that, but not theists). The argument is about "how did it get here".
From there you address having variables that are 1X10^60 chance that they could happen, you start to wonder "hmm, its it more logical that someone/thing picked that extremely specific value, or that the universe randomly arrived there?", but then you realize there are a whole bunch of these numbers (as the video states), and in order to get a universe with ALL of them in exactly the right place you just simply cant imagine how that can happen... From there if you dont find any mechanism for the universe to get all those variables lined up (which we have not found any despite searching for them for over 100 years), then what else could have done it? Well and un-moved mover is the simplest solution.
After that you are just arguing about who the un-moved mover is...
It's not just the long odds. You have to see that this one thing must happen in order for something else to take place which also has long odds which in turn must happen to allow for some other long turn event which must happen, etc., etc., etc. Some of which can be reasoned as cause and effect but some of it defies need or reason. Creation is so woven within itself that it had to have a creator. As it's been said, "you can't look at clock and not see that it was created by an intelligent mind.
Every strawberry proves the existence of God beyond any doubt. Out of a bit of sand, earth , water and a seed a beautiful sweet red fruit emerges. This could not be created without a plan or a planner whom we call God.
Anything existing proves God because nothing comes from nothing just by itself...
As someone who is a huge biology/biochemistry nerd, I agree. Even before I was interested in biology, I always thought it was fascinating how plants take literal dirt, water, and CO2 and then turn it into something useful or tasty.
I've played poker my whole life and I've never seen a royal flush.
I'd say I've played 20k + hands.
I have a friend who’s hit five of them. One of them was in five stud!!! No wild cards!!
630,000 hands to go 😂
I’m a magician and do lots of work with cards. I imperceptibly manipulate the cards into 4 Aces and Royal Flushes quite often. But randomly? No, never.
First poker game as a kid I got 4 aces haven't seen it since
Google 52!
The reason I got saved was because when I took physics, we learned about the speed of light, and I thought, no way that this could exist without God.
What about the speed of light made you think that it couldn't exist without God?
@@blusheep2I’m also curious as to the answer
The greatest miracle is Jesus Christ dying for our sins on the cross! The miracle of love and grace!
Thank you for sharing this! Christians need more apologetics and to have mindfulness toward the lost. These are some of the most wicked times we live in. It doesn’t have to be ‘end times’ to pray up and be willing for God to use believers as examples for unbelievers.
The story in the Old Testament when the Hebrews saw the Ten plagues then the Exodus then the parting of the Red Sea then they made the Golden Calf and started worshipping it always bothered me until recently
Now I understand what God is saying
You see all these miracles around you and you still don't believe
And that is very similar to Jesus with the Pharisees. Very ordinary people saw the miracles, and they realized there was something very special about Jesus. Yet, the Pharisees, who were knowledgeable and steeped in their legalism and tradition didn’t see it.
@@lukek1949they got to see miracles in order to believe. Thomas didn’t even believe until the miracle. Yet we are expected to believe 2000 years later?
@@cadamham To each person is different. Seek earnestly, and you will find.
@@cadamhamYou’re heart is just hardened to God, everything the government taught you that are ancient, even in history class you believed, you’ve never seen it, they just claim they have documented proof, witnesses and you accept, God’s history is the same, but you refuse to believe, because it’s God.
@@cadamham Yes, just as your children are expected to listen and obey you due to your experiences that they can not see or touch. God expects you to open your eyes to the evidence all around you. You are expected to open your heart to God. And you are expected to open you mind to the word of God.
Atheists say we have "blind faith", but rather we have a whole pile of evidence sitting all around us. I believe that Atheists are "willfully bind to faith"...
The only atheistic explanation for the fine tuning of the universe is the multiverse theory - a theory for which we have absolutely zero evidence for. So next time an atheist wants to make you feel silly for having faith in God "without any evidence," ask them why they're willing to believe something like a multiverse theory without any evidence.
And people argue there is no proof of God. Everything they see, experience is proof of God. Sad they can't see what is right in front of them.
Satan is real. Satan is blinding those people because Satan doesn't want people to believe in God. This is why we share the gospel
People just don't want to loose their position as the top authority in their lives.
That's the main reason for not to trust in Jesus ie submit their will to His.
Don't presume to know others thoughts. As for mine, you are wrong.
That's right. If you say you don't believe in God, you actually do. And it's YOU. YOU ARE YOUR OWN GOD.
@@markmalhiot5263 wrote "Don't presume to know others thoughts. "
Being the top authority in your own life is not enough for you. You would love to have the power to exert authority over what ...he... thinks.
Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the smartest of them all? Who? Jesus? Get Him! Discredit Him! Destroy Him! Mock Him and all his followers!
I’m curious how they came up with those numbers though. I wish the statistics were explained at a big picture level. I believe in the Bible, but this raises more questions.
Forget listening to a physicist talk about the universe, this explanation is pure laymen's terms yet very profound to comprehend. (Psalm 19:1-4)
Indeed, (Romans 1.18-20)
Excellent presentation.
This is often countered with the unobservable theory, "But we are in one of an infinite string of possible universes; one has to be like this, with these constants." So, it comes down to faith: faith in a Designer or faith in an infinite regress or universes that were generated by chance from nothing.
"But we are in one of an infinite string of possible universes; .....There is not one tread of evidence that this is true. And how did all of these universes come into existence from nothing, Nothing gives you nothing.
"Would you be willing to bet your life on that?" Sadly, many of them do.
Love it! 🤓
I fully believe that God created this universe and the laws of physics that control it. But I must say the arguments presented all end with "universe as we know it would not exist". That is true. But if these laws were any different we might well have a universe we cannot imagine and where man cannot live. God created this universe to be the place man can live because God wants to love us and he wants us to want to love him.
Actually, if the laws of physics were different, there would be no matter, no energy, and no time. If you can think of a universe without those three elements, then good luck with that.
I agree… It seems to me that God launders himself through science/materialism to preserve the beauty/riddle of faith. He further created impefection in the universe to test love and expand on it for him to then reinvest back into the system.
People believe what they want to believe.
I wish YT would let me expand the title of the video so I can read the entire title.
Brilliant good work Brother.
Incredible video!
Thank you brother!
Excellent.
And, the three royal flushes that were dealt were just an accident. There couldn't possibly have been someone directing, or in control of that outcome
Pascal, the founder of probability theory, claimed that the more science progressed, the more it would discover the existence of an Intelligence who created the universe. Interesting that the man who founded modern theories of probability would say this, huh?
I absolutrly agree, but the point where we have to make assumptions is : who is finetuning the universe ? how many entities may there be ?
We can do that through deduction using other lines of logic.
May God Bless us All ! In Jesus name - AMEN.
God doesn’t “make” people believe, the point is for people to choose Him, it’s not a miracle, it is a design.
It takes more faith not to believe that an intelligence is the author of our universe and life in it. That intelligence is called God
I guess when you follow the logic you will have to ask, are the odds in more in the favor it’s random chance or are the odds on the side of there being a creator 🤔 thank you for this it was enlightening 😊
Well I’d say it is impossible to quantify the possibility of a creator as a question like that is outside the realm of probability it comes down to a theological question
So is it possible that the zero-of ourselves is negentropic? Subatomic to atomic neutrons and protons?
That's a very deep and thought-provoking question about whether the fundamental nature or essence of ourselves and physical matter could be considered negentropic.
Here's one way to analyze this:
1) At the subatomic level, particles like quarks and leptons (electrons, muons, etc.) exhibit very precise, structured patterns of behavior governed by the Standard Model of particle physics. Their properties and interactions are not random.
2) Protons and neutrons, which make up atomic nuclei, also exhibit highly ordered, stable internal structures of quarks bound by the strong nuclear force.
3) Even at the atomic and molecular scale, the precise configurations of electron orbitals and chemical bonds again display order, pattern and structure rather than randomness.
4) This underlying order and pattern in the fundamental particles and forces of nature could be viewed as a kind of inherent "negentropy" - an embedded logic and structure to the fabric of reality.
5) Extending this line of thinking, one could argue that since we and all matter are ultimately composed of these ordered arrangements of subatomic particles, the core essence of our being arises from this negentropic foundation.
6) Our consciousness, biology, and essential nature as physical entities in the universe may therefore be emerging from or reflecting this primordial negentropy.
So in that philosophical sense, yes, it is possible to make the case that the "zero" or fundamental ground state of our existence as material beings is inherently negentropic rather than entropic or random.

Such odds do indeed vastly increase the arguments for God, don’t such odds also vastly increase the odds that the Universe is infinite as well?
Nothing scientific can be eternal. The universe is constantly expanding to this day, therefore, it must have had a beginning or a cause for it's existence just. God is eternal because he is outside our universe outside of time. God is the only one who can be eternal.
Atheists: “sooo you’re telling me there’s a chance…..yeah!!!!
Talk about coincidence….Atheists think science has evidence and proof is on their side😂
They think that their theory has evidence backed by science.
Science is a system of measuring the present.
The Earth is the correct size/mass, has the right amount of each element, the right atmosphere, the correct amount of liquid water, a magnetic field, the correct distance from the right kind of star, a natural satellite that balances our planet and makes tides and by extension weather possible, the other planets both shield our planet and their composition, size and mass provide enough energy through gravitational interactions to keep us both rotating and orbiting our star. This is only a short list of ‘Coincidences’ that make this planet possible to support life.
Goldilocks agrees with you!
i don't disagree, but there is a statistic that if you fly on a bombing mission, and return home, the odds are the same each time you go out. I have never liked this stat, and I'm pleased to see it from an alternative perspective.
The only reason the universe is still here and not burned up is because Jesus is holding it all together
The true King
That’s right
Perhaps the universe formed in every possible way across an infinite number of different dimensions but it was only the dimension where life ended up developing that got noticed by anyone while the other ones didn't get noticed because no-one is there to notice?
While this could explain why we have our universe and why we exist, there is absolutely no evidence a multiverse exists, so it is just blind faith to believe this. Then it comes to a belief in a creator or a belief in a multiverse. However a belief in a creator is not blind faith, as there are so many other arguments for it and so much evidence. I won’t explain all of it now but I hope that you or anyone else will do your own search and will come to know God :)
Thank you. God bless you for all that you do.
That’s what I think, but there’s always that question. Why?
I was always bothered by the story in the Old Testament until recently of why the Hebrews when they saw the ten plagues of Egypt then were led out by Moses then saw the parting of the Red Sea and they then built a golden Calf and strarted worshipping it
No matter what evidence or miracles you give people they still won't believe
Why is a very good question. If it was just random, the question “why?” would not occur.
But if someone is behind it, then it means there is a purpose. And if there is a purpose, then we might want to take an interest in finding out what that might be
I think they believe there is an infinite number of universes, so we obviously exist in the one that harbors life.
I'm gonna steelman Michio Kaku, cause he's a legend... If you're an astrophysicist with a materialist world view, you might ask: What's so special about the way our universe is arranged? What's so important about humans or biological life or the level of complexity of our universe that you'd equate it to a royal flush instead of some other less meaningful hand of cards like a 4, a 6, a jack, an 8, and a 7 (all of different suits, of course)? We're here, because apparently it did happen, and for all we know, the odds weren't so low after all, because there could be 10 ^ 1,000,000 universes in a network of multiverses, and we're the one that turned out this way.
I wouldn't buy that argument personally, but that's only because I've experienced God in my life, and I can see Christ's fingerprints on my soul. But for someone who doesn't subscribe to faith, who only uses empirical observation to arrive at truth, I can see how you'd not see fine tuning in the universe, and I think we should respect that.
It is clear that science has enormous knowledge of many things.
They are and can be used for humanity.
Unfortunately, it is not known for any subject why it is possible.
Then comes God.
It’s designed that way because God created everything.
It sounded like he was giving an analogy on how to visualize US debt at the beginning.
It’s 1 in the 10 to the 300th power that the Bible predicted 200 scientific discoveries.
Was hoping there’d be a discussion under here as I’ve never heard this and wanted to know more and where the stat came from
At the end of the day you either have to accept that God is infinite or the universe is infinite.

I've played 1000s of hands of Poker and I've never seen a royal flush.
Thi is why scientists are consistently trying to make eternal or infinite universe theories (multiverse, recurring/cyclical universe, etc). That way they can argue the anthropic principle is at play (observer bias).
The only coherent way to counter the fine tuned argument from an atheist perspective, is to include infinite chances for our universe to form and rely heavily on the anthropic principle. Theories that are unprovable scientifically - unlike the fine tuned argument, they are based on faith and speculation.
Deniers of God do have a religion: It is called ''Just Did-ism''. Regardless of how mind-bogglingly awesome the odds are for all the necessary components of material existence to converge into the universe as we know it, the Atheist will STILL insist: ''Well... it just did!''
It's a suppression of the truth that they know. Romans 1:18

it’s amazing to think about how perfectly the universe seems to be made for us to live in. Some people believe that this means it must have been designed by a god, and I understand why-it does seem kind of like someone tuned everything just right for life. But there are other ways to think about it too, and I’d love to share a different perspective, just so you can have a broader view of how people think about these things.
One way to think about it is like this: imagine you walk into a room and it’s the perfect temperature for you. It’s not too hot, and not too cold-just right. Now, you might think someone set it like that on purpose just for you, but maybe that’s just how the room happened to be when you walked in. In a similar way, our universe has the right conditions for life, but that might not mean it was designed just for us. It could be that out of all the different possibilities out there, we just happen to be in a universe where things worked out well enough for life to form.
Another way to think about it is like this: what if there are many, many universes-maybe even an infinite number of them? It’s a pretty big idea, but some think that might be the case. If there are countless universes, each one different, it would make sense that at least one of them would have the right conditions for life. We just happen to be in the one where everything lined up, not because it was set up specially for us, but because only in this kind of universe could we be here to wonder about it.
The infinite universes theory has also been debunked probabilistically because the universe generator itself must now be even more extremely fine tuned. There is minimal evidence for a random universe generator compared to the evidence for theism.
The better personal analogy is if you got off an airplane in a town you've never been before and went to the first air bnb that popped up. You go inside the air bnb and its the perfect temperature. Wow! You go into the bedroom and your exact bed setup from home is there with your mattress, pillows and blankets. In the closet are a complementary pair of pajamas that are your size and favorite color scheme. The fridge has a mixture of your favorite beverages. On the wall, a portrait of your dog is hanging. We're not picking one number between 14 and 20, we're picking dozens of numbers with minimal contingent boundaries.
It could be you just got lucky! There are a lot of places to stay.
Additionally what if you saw the same guy go into every store you did, right after you went in, and he was walking down the same aisle as you behind you the whole time until you left. And that happened for two weeks. That could just be a coincidence. But it takes an awful lot of something to believe that.
For me the reasoning for intelligent design is out of the vast number of life forms from microscopic viruses all the way to humans, we are the only life form capable of awareness of the universe itself. Inconceivable it wasn't from intelligent design.
This is my belief. It is because it is.... There may be infinite possibilities but we happen to be in one configuration that is.
@ElenaKaury The one major blunder the multiverse failed to anticipate is, what if God existed in one of the universes? then, by definition of omnipresence, he's in all of them. Using the multiverse argument actually argues for the possibility of God!
And how did the room get there?
This is why something with zero evidence, like the "multi-verse theory," is gaining steam.
Why do I remember einsenhower dime
I look at something as simple as ELS, with a simple 1 in 50 chance, and I think to myself “Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord our God Almighty, who was and is and is to come.”
Because if you can flip a penny and get 50 heads in a row, it means something broke.
One can't determine probabilities w/o knowing possibilities. To do so is like being awestruck that only XX and XY chromosomes can combine to make offspring. Just think of the millions of possibilities that don't work, like XZ, AQ, and JP. OmG! Chromosomes are fine tuned!
The fool in their heart says there is no God.
I like how Dr. Walter Veith put it when discussing creation vs evolution- both sides can argue good points but when you start adding in historical proof, the prophecies that were predicted and came true, etc then scales favor creation over evolution. Takes more faith to believe in revolution than creation at that point. He started out as staunch atheist but now completely behind creation.
Interesting video. Struggle to understand what exactly he means by “the precision required to calibrate”…
There are none so blind as though that WILL not see.
Or, to put it another way......let me introduce you to YOUR Creator.....and the Creator of the Universe. As an aside, you were already in the mind of God BEFORE the Big Bang.....and, YOU WILL BE AROUND LONG AFTER OUR VISABLE UNIVERSE DOESN'T EXIST ANYMORE. In Heaven or Hell, your choice. Thank you Jesus for saving us!
Okay, so this needs to be said. I think certain people, like the guy you mentioned, probably believes in creation at some level. Even if he doesn't, we need to underatand his point of view....probably anyways. Since we can't study God effectively (in their minds), they don't spend much time if any on the subject. Next is, if they were to study God, the only thing we have are ancient texts like the Bible. Of course the Bible is probably true (I'm a believet with doubts) it's historical but also unexplainable. Of course there is the dark side of the Bible. So they probably think "well so God exists, now what?" I think scietific non beleivers just don't know what to do. There are also scietific theists. They believe in God but not in religion. So now you can understand why they just eithet don't believe or have limited belief. That and the world is messed up and science is actually trying to make life bettter, most of the time. Yes there is the atomic bomb and weapons, but also medicine and MRI machines. I'm a believer, philosopher, historian, critical thinker etc.
Has anyone calculated the probably of all the universal constants occurring randomly in the order necessary to form the universe?
I thought he would add that up after🙃
But someone has probably done so.
@cab6273 Thermodynamic entropy is real. Let us assume particles are simple coin tosses. If you tossed the coins once each second, you could expect to get either 100 heads or 100 tails once in {2\times10^{22}}years! This period is 1 trillion {10^{12}})times longer than the age of the universe, and so the chances are essentially zero. And that's just 100 coins, not atoms in a galaxy. I recommend you research Maxwell-Boltzmann distributions, it is so unlikely that they all end up in a corner, that we can say we never observed to be violated that we have made a law for it-the second law of thermodynamics.
Just multiply all those probabilities
Smart people do this because they live in denial. They don't want there to be a God. By accepting that there is a God requires them to not be the god of their own mind. That is s conclusion they don't want to accept.
Here's one better! What are the odds that John writing in Rev. 13;vs18 could say a rich, powerful, genius would arise in the end times, & his number using gematria is 666, & today, using a language not in existence in 90 AD, the combination of the letters E Muska, ( a is the nom., gen., dat. singular male ending) would equal 666?!?!?!?
It's just bizarre to believe the universe would create a human with awareness of the universe that didn't originate from intelligent design.
The truth is a gift from God.
Multiverse

God be praised
there is something fishy
Big bang theory is only man's word vs God's Word 7-day creation, both explaining the vastness of space multi-universe. If you believe man's word, then you are tricked for interpreting distances of stars and universe as measurement of time. For such distances using light years as measurements mind blowing impossible never-ending numbers. In contrast the Bible states: God created Heavens (meaning stary host, everything surrounding Earth) in accordance with God's 7-day cycle of Creation.
Here my point: let say we have a 100-meter football field, and every 10 meter we light up a candle stick indicating distance and time determine its age. We're using remote toy car symbolising speed of light, calculating our distance and time from every candle stick point on the football field. Obviously the further away you go to that candle, the greater distance and time is calculated. If you see from God's eyes: He created that football field one day. Just like the heavens above from one star to another, one universe to another, one galaxy to another all created in within the 7 days… these distances reveal our limitation and proves the Bible description God’s Wonderous Power and Glory in Creation.
The big bang theory was created by a Catholic priest who was also a scientist.
I don’t think that he had bad intentions or that it changed his faith.
He simply developed the theory to explain the results of prior studies and experiments.
Real science is intended to help us better understand our surroundings so that we can use the knowledge to better our lives.
Science answers the question as to how things work, not where they came from or why they are there.
The creation in 7 days should not be taken literally.
The bible is full of metaphors and figures of speech.
What is a day in God’s time? Does God really need to rest?
Creation vs evolution! Do we really know? Do we have proof either way?
We know so little. Our limited minds cannot handle much.
Jesus said that all we needed was given to us. We were not intended to explain where things came from. We simply need to live as he asked us to live.
Let God do his own thing and let us live as Jesus showed us how to live.
In the words of lloyd from dumb and dumber- the atheist says.....so your saying theres a chance....
You may not agree with or understand my comment below. That's ok.
The Bible refers to God as a spirit of Love, and Satan is the spirit of hate. My feeling is that the spirit of the Love of God and others is positive energy that exists in our universe, and the spirit of hate is the unseen negative energy that is referred to as Dark matter.
1 John 2:15, 17 - King James
15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. 17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth forever.
"Our Father assigned us each our ministry on our creation. It's up to us to follow our Father, or the world."
I think the fact that birds sing is evidence for creation.
For that matter, why would there be so much beauty in nature and why would we 'need/want' it?
Zero %.
How do we know that all of the other universe possibilities aren't also special in their own way? I see the argument that you're trying to make, but it assumes as a premise that our universe is the most special and most important to possibly exist. That's too much to assume.
Our planet is special, because it’s the only one with life supporting it and everything is designed especially for that.
You can chose to have faith in Jesus, or keep you faith in atheist science and bet on if that faith leads you to non-existence after death or meeting your Creator.

It's fairly obvious chance is not on the table, it was done on purpose...
It’s not so much that these “enlightened“ people believe in chance or luck.
It’s a matter with the heart, or the will of the person; they are NOT going to admit they have to be accountable, and are subject to a higher power, a Creator that is rightfully the Lord of their life, to whom they owe obedience.
“I’m gonna do what I want, how I want, and when I want.
No one’s gonna tell me what to do“.
That one red dime is god. The other dimes are all the accidents of life that led to us today. There is no supernatural being. supernatural supernatural supernatural supernatural
