      But the dominant religions of the day insist only they are right and everyone else is wrong
      If it were up to them even the Buddha might have been burned to death just as Giordano Bruno was, as Hypatia of Alexandria was beaten to death!
      Even today some Christians are against Yoga
      Imagine Indians being the Mayans - or the Buddhists as the Mayans - Yoga would not be known today, neither would Buddhism!
      yet these Communist/Dictator-style - "our way is the only way, you are either with us or else" - religions are the top religions of the day
      Doesn't say much about our intellect

      @@joshmorris6652 Does that work with other religions? Are you open to the good parts of other religions? Have you read the Gita, Buddhists thoughts?
      Gandhiji in his prayer meetings used to do that - he use to read not only from the Gita but also from the Koran, the Bible etc
      Hinduism have never had any problem with seeing the good in others
      But where are we in terms of numbers? Which ones are the top religions of the day?
      Those that preach hate and division
      Those that use threats if you are open to other ideas
      Giordano Bruno, Hypatia of Alexandria were brutally murdered because they were open to other ideas
      Have things changed much?
      In the TV show "Everybody loves Raymond" the elder son, the big guy, says he joined another faith & the family reacts with horror - "you are going to hell", "you have lost your mind", "the guy who introduced you to this cult is crazy!"
      So much abuse OPENLY directed at other faiths
      The words that you used, try using them in church? See what reaction you get?

      Book of Genesis is FACT. Please find below scientific/cosmological/archaeological/historical proof & explanation behind the Book of Genesis - These are some of the best videos out there. Kindly share with any other apologists as well.
      The actual scientific explanation for the 7 days of creation is something like this;
      The universe is 7 days old at the point of creation( looking forward) and 13.8 billion years old (looking backwards at the point of creation). This is called space time dilation - the further you get from the point of creation - the older the age of the universe.
      Cross section of the universe is as per NASA WMAP diagram.
      map.gsfc.nasa.gov/media/060915/060915_CMB_Timeline600.jpg
      Gerald Schroeder PhD and Hugh Ross - Phd Astrophysicists have explained this further.
      a)Gerald Schroeder has even given the rough mathematical formula for the age of the universe.
      (and also the each day = x billion years long) (+/- factor of 10 error)

      ruclips.net/video/_RuIVCm7pNc/видео.html (diff between HughRoss & GeraldS is minimal. The differences - GS used Olam(modern Hebrew) vs yom )
      b) Hugh Ross gives very detailed explanations on the frames of reference
      God is talking from
      i) Gen 1.1 - at the point of creation(1st day/2nd day/3rd day),
      ii) Gen 1.2 from the surface of the earth
      iii) Gen 1.3 - Let there be light - the atmosphere become transparent
      iv) Age of man decreased from 1000 years to 120 years - Hugh Ross explains in his video how the explosion of the supernova about 100k years ago ( monoserotis ??) and that the cosmic radiation from this caused genetic degradation. this is why the age of the patriarchs decreased from 1000 years (adam to noah/shem) to 120ish around abraham. This radiation was x light years away and would have hit earth around the time of noah.

      Noahs Flood proof
      Heres the physical proof of Noahs flood : 12k years ago a meteorite hit the Greenland Hiawatha Glacier and created a crater 30km in diameter.
      ruclips.net/video/zfapz2F8Vz0/видео.html
      It flooded the Americas to Middle east. It was regional flood & not global flood.
      The sea level rose about a min of 50+ feet and low lying places settlements like sundaland(asia), black sea, Mediterranean basin were swallowed up by the sea. Africa was minimally affected.
      Thats why you find wooly mammoths remains from Americas to Siberia frozen in ice and mud with partially digested food in its stomach. American megafauna was wiped out (camelops, lions, cheetahs)
      Mammoth bones in Mexico - buried under 30feet of mud
      www.geologyin.com/2019/12/over-800-mammoth-bones-discovered-in.html
      Thats why Africa has wider genetic diversity than rest of the world. African genes stretch from Africa to India to Sentinelese ( andaman islands) to Papua new guinea + Australia & Japan(ainu).
      But you dont find indigenous black population in Americas or Europe.
      The Clovis people of the Americas suddenly went extinct.

      Triggers for Noahs flood & 13k years of climate stability
      The detailed science/data that documents the climate change over the last few million years. God truly tweaked the planet to enable us to live here. Tectonics, asteriod impacts etc that made the climate stable for the last 13k years for us to live in. The world we currently live in is a drop of stability in an otherwise highly unstable planet.

      To sum it up its all great sounding theories, but thats all they are.
      We like to hear these scientists talk because it gives us the idea that we as humans understand exactly why we are here.
      Maybe to cope with inevitable death? Finding peace in scientists that do the thinking for us, so we don't have to think for ourselves?
      What if there was a creator, and this creator wants to give love and understanding, but we reject it by listening to these prophets? Maybe we should repend and listen to our heart, why do we have these morals, why do we know what is bad.
      Why do most humans just want to attract a partner and create a family, I mean in the core of what we want.
      You can argue career is important, and a lot of people think they want that, maybe through TV shows and celebs telling you that getting to where they are is the answer. To build a career, to make a name for yourself, for what? Where do you live for then?
      Money? Power? Ego? We know money does not create positive substance in the mind, fame doesn't either it seems, if you take a close look at them.
      Who is creating these celebs? And why? I would argue maybe its like the lottery, once a year some one wins it, thats enough motivation for a lot of people getting a ticket. Maybe it's the exact same thing with actors and fame, they are the lottery winners of fame and fortune, showing how it is possible for young people to pursuit these empty goals.
      Maybe this is one of the many parts that is destroying people, depression, suicide, it's the biggest killer ever, yet nobody talks about it; here, take a pill, created by scientists in a lab serving big pharma.

    What Dr. Greene said about the prayer for his father struck me. My father died two days before Christmas when I was ten. We took him back to his island home to bury him and the priest spoke only Latin (no Vatican II touched the place), and there was something moving about it.

      Because people like you who use the word "extemporaneous" instead of saying "he speaks well even when unscripted". There literally is no need for that word or a lot of the words which have the same meanings but are just really hard to spell or long n *cough* I use this term loosely "yOuR sO CaLlEd HiGh LeVeL eDuCaTiOnAl WoRdS" in English. That's why the English language is stupid n it makes pompous douches like you or that guy who uses fancy words n say dumb shit but still come to the conclusion of the fact that they still know Jack shit about our existence n where we came from. Even tho he practices this so called science that seems to be apart from the LORD God.

      That's because modern science is incredibly one-sided and they don't want you to know about the vast number of scientific contributions made by religious people. The Big Bang theory itself was postulated by a Roman Catholic priest who also happened to be an astronomer and a professor of physics. There are tons more like him, but the bigots like Dawkins don't want you to acknowledge that.

      I think We all murderers.
      I mean with all I can see happening in the world, We just make the illusion of being civilized, but the reality is that We haven't got there yet, We still in that process of becoming a human being, We still carry the jungle on us, like our ancestor back millions years ago, but our DNA have not been changed as much so We could see what's in front of our eyes, so we used our ancestor way of self defence, trying to tell yourself that you different from other, and by so is not your problem, and that sad part of that is the fact that We all do this, which give me the conclusion of knowing that we all part of the murders as we still not fully humans.
      I know I might get some critics from scientific community, but to be honest I am talking the human in us, which can control its own temper, sicking for a better day for each one in this ball full of crazy organism, it be great to be in a place where not only everyone got a good life, but also not afraid of dying, cause they more focus on living, I know those might be just radon thoughts, but I know those time will come, I know evolution is real, and one day our conecciones, will go beyond, the simulations we have creat in this planet, which has make the idea of having a good planet which is not the idea of living, but to exist even knowing you are part of a big game, and you will be gone one day.
      So we know nature is killing us one by one, and We decide to give her a hand, I mean she never asked for help, We just keep up with the rest we see them do it, all the animals one trying to catch the smallest, and it become a chain where there is no ends, more than destructions, but like I said we smart, is just our deep in that,s not working well, so We create the mechanism, to be in the top chain as those the animals in the jungle, as our ager for self consideration, have us living everything that should matters vanishing like smoke in the air, I don't like what I see, but like I said I have faith in us, and one day We will become this human being which his conscious belong to his own mind and the simulation it's not a problem no more, as We control the game, like We all do with much simulations outside.

Since that time, god isn’t a man in the sky, it is an energy of love for me. And we go on in that energy.

      Book of Genesis is FACT. Please find below scientific/cosmological/archaeological/historical proof & explanation behind the Book of Genesis - These are some of the best videos out there. Kindly share with any other apologists as well.
      The actual scientific explanation for the 7 days of creation is something like this;
      The universe is 7 days old at the point of creation( looking forward) and 13.8 billion years old (looking backwards at the point of creation). This is called space time dilation - the further you get from the point of creation - the older the age of the universe.
      Cross section of the universe is as per NASA WMAP diagram.
      map.gsfc.nasa.gov/media/060915/060915_CMB_Timeline600.jpg
      Gerald Schroeder PhD and Hugh Ross - Phd Astrophysicists have explained this further.
      a)Gerald Schroeder has even given the rough mathematical formula for the age of the universe.

      b) Hugh Ross gives very detailed explanations on the frames of reference
      God is talking from
      i) Gen 1.1 - at the point of creation(1st day/2nd day/3rd day),
      ii) Gen 1.2 from the surface of the earth
      iii) Gen 1.3 - Let there be light - the atmosphere become transparent
      iv) Age of man decreased from 1000 years to 120 years - Hugh Ross explains in his video how the explosion of the supernova about 100k years ago ( monoserotis ??) and that the cosmic radiation from this caused genetic degradation. this is why the age of the patriarchs decreased from 1000 years (adam to noah/shem) to 120ish around abraham.

      ruclips.net/video/zfapz2F8Vz0/видео.html
      It flooded the Americas to Middle east. It was regional flood & not global flood.
      The sea level rose about a min of 50+ feet and low lying places settlements like sundaland(asia), black sea, Mediterranean basin were swallowed up by the sea. Africa was minimally affected.
      Thats why you find wooly mammoths remains from Americas to Siberia frozen in ice and mud with partially digested food in its stomach. American megafauna was wiped out (camelops, lions, cheetahs)
      Mammoth bones in Mexico - buried under 30feet of mud
      www.geologyin.com/2019/12/over-800-mammoth-bones-discovered-in.html
      Thats why Africa has wider genetic diversity than rest of the world. African genes stretch from Africa to India to Sentinelese ( andaman islands) to Papua new guinea + Australia & Japan(ainu).
      But you dont find indigenous black population in Americas or Europe.

      In regards to that simple description of god I literally cant imagine or fathom that something of that nature exists.
      Unlike Dawkins I'm not anti theist. Religion is not useless, something doesn't have to be real for it to have value.
      For example as an atheist I still plan to have a church wedding. Even if I don't believe in a god doesn't mean i don't understand what a promise to an entity of that magnitude means and I personally find that idea quite attractive even if its just on a romantic scale.

      I don't think that's a good definition of god and I don't think most people believe in a god like this (certainly not most intelligent people). If this is your definition, than of course you're an atheist...
      Why would god defy physics? I mean he is the creator of this world not an imaginary world. Why do you assume that a god has to be physical? A lot of people believe he created this physical realm, but they believe god himself is not a physical being. why would god have a persona and what do you mean by that? I mean believers always say that god can't be known and that he works in mysterious ways.
      I don't know if you've ever heard of emergence, but I'll explain anyway. It basically means how a bunch of simple things together can create very intelligent and complex systems. For example a human being or an ant colony. One ant is a relatively simple creature and just mindlessly does one simple job, but the entire ant colony works as a big intelligent system. It has a hive mind and we also have (and are) a hive mind like this. That's basically emergence; stupid things together make up intelligent things.
      I think you can swap the word god and the universe around without much of a believe change tbh. It just needs a bit of a change in perspective. We can look at ourselves as intelligent living creatures within a mostly dead world made out of matter. However if we humble ourselves and look what's actually going on, we realise that we're just part of something far greater, far more intelligent and more alive than the conscious part of our brain. I mean just look at nature and how all these complex systems work together so effortlessly. Look at psychedelics that can teleport you to another realm and tell me that's not god like. Maybe the universe is just gods body and god is the hive mind of it all. We are merely tiny conscious cells in his body and mind.
      Even if you don't agree with me on all of this, agree with me on the possibility that our universe might be a simulation. That could mean that our god is the scientist who created this simulation, right? I guess it depends on your definition of god though.
      That's how I look at it anyway.

      Christopher Langan, it's literally the first result. His score is well-documented and verified. He lives a reclusive life on a farm, and has theorized proofs about the existence of God.
      Anyhow, I think you're making quite a false assumption. The causation of the aforementioned trend is probably linked to an atheist's increased cognitive ability to be slightly more open-minded and defiant towards societal norms than the average population. The established beliefs of the majority tend to be the result of indoctrination and upbringing, and many of those who regard their religion as dogmatic truths tend to express less open-mindedness and contemplative ability. This is what offsets atheists from the average population, they (or their parents) renounced God and the tenants of religion and therefore show a greater propensity to defy established, unproven beliefs, thus greater intelligence. That, however, is a very superficial level of intellect. When you go into higher level academia, there is a lot more philosophical discussion about God on a cosmic level, not a bearded man in the sky. Most atheists who pride their intellect were only clever enough to disperse the latter myth, and cannot engage the other concept.
      Look at former or current communist states, their denizens were/are coerced to discard religious beliefs. How come the Czech Republic (almost entirely atheist) does not surpass the likes of Italy (fixated under dogmatic Catholicism still)? North Korea is almost entirely irreligious. This contradicts your claim, so it really comes down to the ability to swim against the tide and use one's intellect to deduce original ideas.

      I mean with all I can see happening in the world, We just make the illusion of being civilized, but the reality is that We haven't got there yet, We still in that process of becoming a human being, We still carry the jungle on us, like our ancestor back millions years ago, but our DNA have not been changed as much so We could see what's in front of our eyes, so we used our ancestor way of self defence, trying to tell yourself that you different from other, and by so is not your problem, and that sad part of that is the fact that We all do this, which give me the conclusion of knowing that we all part of the murders as we still not fully humans.
      I know I might get some critics from scientific community, but to be honest I am talking the human in us, which can control its own temper, sicking for a better day for each one in this ball full of crazy organism, it be great to be in a place where not only everyone got a good life, but also not afraid of dying, cause they more focus on living, I know those might be just radon thoughts, but I know those time will come, I know evolution is real, and one day our conecciones, will go beyond, the simulations we have creat in this planet, which has make the idea of having a good planet which is not the idea of living, but to exist even knowing you are part of a big game, and you will be gone one day.
      So we know nature is killing us one by one, and We decide to give her a hand, I mean she never asked for help, We just keep up with the rest we see them do it, all the animals one trying to catch the smallest, and it become a chain where there is no ends, more than destructions, but like I said we smart, is just our deep in that,s not working well, so We create the mechanism, to be in the top chain as those the animals in the jungle, as our ager for self consideration, have us living everything that should matters vanishing like smoke in the air, I don't like what I see, but like I said I have faith in us, and one day We will become this human being which his conscious belong to his own mind and the simulation it's not a problem no more, as We control the game, like We all do with much simulations outside.

      Book of Genesis is FACT. Please find below scientific/cosmological/archaeological/historical proof & explanation behind the Book of Genesis - These are some of the best videos out there. Kindly share with any other apologists as well.
      The actual scientific explanation for the 7 days of creation is something like this;
      The universe is 7 days old at the point of creation( looking forward) and 13.8 billion years old (looking backwards at the point of creation). This is called space time dilation - the further you get from the point of creation - the older the age of the universe.
      Cross section of the universe is as per NASA WMAP diagram.
      map.gsfc.nasa.gov/media/060915/060915_CMB_Timeline600.jpg
      Gerald Schroeder PhD and Hugh Ross - Phd Astrophysicists have explained this further.
      a)Gerald Schroeder has even given the rough mathematical formula for the age of the universe.
      (and also the each day = x billion years long) (+/- factor of 10 error)

      ruclips.net/video/_RuIVCm7pNc/видео.html (diff between HughRoss & GeraldS is minimal. The differences - GS used Olam(modern Hebrew) vs yom )
      b) Hugh Ross gives very detailed explanations on the frames of reference
      God is talking from
      i) Gen 1.1 - at the point of creation(1st day/2nd day/3rd day),
      ii) Gen 1.2 from the surface of the earth
      iii) Gen 1.3 - Let there be light - the atmosphere become transparent
      iv) Age of man decreased from 1000 years to 120 years - Hugh Ross explains in his video how the explosion of the supernova about 100k years ago ( monoserotis ??) and that the cosmic radiation from this caused genetic degradation. this is why the age of the patriarchs decreased from 1000 years (adam to noah/shem) to 120ish around abraham. This radiation was x light years away and would have hit earth around the time of noah.

      Noahs Flood proof
      Heres the physical proof of Noahs flood : 12k years ago a meteorite hit the Greenland Hiawatha Glacier and created a crater 30km in diameter.
      ruclips.net/video/zfapz2F8Vz0/видео.html
      It flooded the Americas to Middle east. It was regional flood & not global flood.
      The sea level rose about a min of 50+ feet and low lying places settlements like sundaland(asia), black sea, Mediterranean basin were swallowed up by the sea. Africa was minimally affected.
      Thats why you find wooly mammoths remains from Americas to Siberia frozen in ice and mud with partially digested food in its stomach. American megafauna was wiped out (camelops, lions, cheetahs)
      Mammoth bones in Mexico - buried under 30feet of mud
      www.geologyin.com/2019/12/over-800-mammoth-bones-discovered-in.html
      Thats why Africa has wider genetic diversity than rest of the world. African genes stretch from Africa to India to Sentinelese ( andaman islands) to Papua new guinea + Australia & Japan(ainu).
      But you dont find indigenous black population in Americas or Europe.
      The Clovis people of the Americas suddenly went extinct.

      Gerald Schroeder PhD and Hugh Ross - Phd Astrophysicists have explained this further.
      a)Gerald Schroeder has even given the rough mathematical formula for the age of the universe.
      (and also the each day = x billion years long) (+/- factor of 10 error)

      ruclips.net/video/_RuIVCm7pNc/видео.html (diff between HughRoss & GeraldS is minimal. The differences - GS used Olam(modern Hebrew) vs yom )
      b) Hugh Ross gives very detailed explanations on the frames of reference
      God is talking from
      i) Gen 1.1 - at the point of creation(1st day/2nd day/3rd day),
      ii) Gen 1.2 from the surface of the earth
      iii) Gen 1.3 - Let there be light - the atmosphere become transparent
      iv) Age of man decreased from 1000 years to 120 years - Hugh Ross explains in his video how the explosion of the supernova about 100k years ago ( monoserotis ??) and that the cosmic radiation from this caused genetic degradation. this is why the age of the patriarchs decreased from 1000 years (adam to noah/shem) to 120ish around abraham. This radiation was x light years away and would have hit earth around the time of noah.

      Noahs Flood proof
      Heres the physical proof of Noahs flood : 12k years ago a meteorite hit the Greenland Hiawatha Glacier and created a crater 30km in diameter.
      ruclips.net/video/zfapz2F8Vz0/видео.html
      It flooded the Americas to Middle east. It was regional flood & not global flood.
      The sea level rose about a min of 50+ feet and low lying places settlements like sundaland(asia), black sea, Mediterranean basin were swallowed up by the sea. Africa was minimally affected.
      Thats why you find wooly mammoths remains from Americas to Siberia frozen in ice and mud with partially digested food in its stomach. American megafauna was wiped out (camelops, lions, cheetahs)
      Mammoth bones in Mexico - buried under 30feet of mud
      www.geologyin.com/2019/12/over-800-mammoth-bones-discovered-in.html
      Thats why Africa has wider genetic diversity than rest of the world. African genes stretch from Africa to India to Sentinelese ( andaman islands) to Papua new guinea + Australia & Japan(ainu).
      But you dont find indigenous black population in Americas or Europe.
      The Clovis people of the Americas suddenly went extinct.

      Triggers for Noahs flood & 13k years of climate stability
      The detailed science/data that documents the climate change over the last few million years. God truly tweaked the planet to enable us to live here. Tectonics, asteriod impacts etc that made the climate stable for the last 13k years for us to live in. The world we currently live in is a drop of stability in an otherwise highly unstable planet.
      Also, 13k years ago...an asteroid impact at Greenland ( Hiawatha glacier) triggered noahs flood.

    I could never get my head around relligion until I had a unexpected contact with psilocibine. I started reading the bible in a much profound way. Even the ideia of time and space and multiple dimensions I could visualize it in a religeous way. The sense of unity with humanity and with nature. I thought about the churches and all the religions as this imperfect way to represent this very profound ideia of unity and solidarity. The notion of ethics came to me in a very deep and touching way. There was some fear involved too. But it pushed me towards positive thoughts and the need to believe in a higher being.

      Book of Genesis is FACT. Please find below scientific/cosmological/archaeological/historical proof & explanation behind the Book of Genesis - These are some of the best videos out there. Kindly share with any other apologists as well.
      The actual scientific explanation for the 7 days of creation is something like this;
      The universe is 7 days old at the point of creation( looking forward) and 13.8 billion years old (looking backwards at the point of creation). This is called space time dilation - the further you get from the point of creation - the older the age of the universe.

    I've had the opportunity to hear from Brian's brother as well, the Hare Krishna (also a PhD in History - and he's seriously intelligent and pragmatic). I'd love to hear from both of them together on the pod.
