Science vs God: Bryan Enderle at TEDxUCDavis
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 сен 2024
- Bryan Enderle grew up in Modesto, CA though he now lives in Davis, CA with his wife, Peggy, and son, Isaac. Bryan received two BS degrees, in Chemical and Petroleum Engineering; an MA in Theology; and an MS and PhD in Chemical Engineering. Personally, he enjoys grappling with the topics of theology and science, both as individual and intersecting topics. Without arguing one way or the other, Enderle uses modern science to make certain fantastic aspects of a modern God more plausible. In doing so he creates a space where science and religion can coexist.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

If this reply is for the author of the video, nobody merits such an offence. If it is a troll added in those days and dated back in the time, the reply and my own reply- are always the same.Why don't you try to give a single reliable argument? I don't think comments readers can be reduced to mere spectators and clapping seals.

Why is is Science vs GOD? Science and GOD are not separate, science is just the proof of all that GOD has done, science itself has never told you, GOD isn't real, a SCIENTIST has, the reason the 'Big Bang' and theories along those lines even exists (which all contradict scientific laws, Law of Conservation of Mass, First law of Thermodynamics, etc) is because of doubt of HUMANS. And speaking on that fact, why would you even want to doubt GOD? If you know the gospel (which translates over to 'good news') of JESUS, you would know that JESUS died FOR YOU, and because of that death, WE HAVE THE REWARD of HEAVEN, why would someone even want to reject that, please humble yourselves, to trust in JESUSS as your LORD and SAVIOR, JESUS loves you so much that, even though many of you say these type of things and actually believe them, HE STILL DIED FOR YOU Romans 5:8 // But GOD demonstrates his own love for us in this While we were still sinners CHRIST died for us. You can spend your whole life trying to disprove GOD but where does that get you? I want you to all think about this, say I was wrong, and you were right, I wasted my whole life trusting in GOD, (and even then it is not a waste because I have grown so much in my relationship in GOD, freeing me from many things I though I would never get out of.) But let's look at this from the opposite situation, say that you were wrong, not only did you waste your whole life being an unbeliever, you wasted your ETERNITY after it, GOD BLESS. GOD is waiting to greet you with open arms, no matter how far you feel. Even one of HIS followers was a man who persecuted and killed followers of CHRIST, Saul (now named Paul) made a 180 turn and accepted CHRIST and even suffered and DIED for CHRIST. Sin is a wicked thing, that leads many to believe these lies, but once you can humble yourselves enough to talk to GOD, even just asking HIM question, and TRULY coming to HIM with a open heart and a listening ear, GOD will make HIMSELF present in your life, maybe HE already has, but many of you have ignored HIM, JESUS is knocking, but HE won't force the door open, JESUS loves you so much that HE wants you to make the decision wether you'll love HIM back, HE won't ever force you to love HIM, because HE knows true love is out of free will. Our consciousness, and conscience is the very proof of a good GOD, evidence is all around you, when will you open your heart to see? GOD BLESS, GOD LOVES YOU, HE is waiting for you to let HIM into your life. :)

That's it.
Randum dude and a conscience
Raymond Palmer that’s a weird way of “proving” God’s existence
“You see, we actually need the science explanation and the deeper meaning explanation to get the fuller picture of reality.”
As a Christian I like to think about the idea of scientists discovering how something actually works and God says, "Thank you. By the way I already knew about that. I made it that way".
The deeper meaning isnt a necessity its a wish, also known as a prayer.
@@lostgamingnexus6950 For a fullER picture of reality, it is. There very well may be a fullEST, but nobody has the absolute FULL.
@@vanmoody I don't think I want my God to be a condescending smartass.
@@TactlessGuy God is the only being in the universe who could proclaim how great He is without any sinful pride.
I’m not a scientist or have the ability to articulate the scientific methods as such, however, I’ve always felt and believed that both science and Religion or God or the creator etc... are like two rivers flowing side by side. Each has explanations to what the other can’t explain, and towards the ends of the rivers’ flow, they both merge in a sea of knowledge.
I always imagined it more like there is one long giant river which is science. Along that river it occasionally breaks into small streams or creeks that run away from the one main river. The small streams usually don't go very far before they end but the river always makes it all the way to the ocean. The small streams and creeks are religions, gods, myths, failed hypothesis and theories etc.

As an atheist, it’s refreshing to see someone with religious beliefs use their rationality and observations of the natural world to make their case instead of relying on “herd mentality” and blind faith. We need more theists like this guy.

Or rather: "Shoehorning a Particular God Into Science".
Andrew Stephenson I think he made a fair case.
"the more I study science, the more I believe in God." Albert Einstein
More Einstein quotes to give more context:
""It seems to me that the idea of a personal God is an anthropological concept which I cannot take seriously."
""The idea of a personal God is quite alien to me and seems even naïve.""
"The word God is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honourable, but still primitive legends. "
"I cannot conceive of a God who rewards and punishes his creatures, or has a will of the type of which we are conscious in ourselves. An individual who should survive his physical death is also beyond my comprehension, nor do I wish it otherwise; such notions are for the fears or absurd egoism of feeble souls."
In response to an article describing Einstein as being traditionally religious:
"It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it."

Here is a quote from Max Planck, introduced Quantum Physics:
"All matter arises and
persists only due to a force that causes the atomic particles to vibrate, holding them together in
the tiniest of solar systems, the atom.
Yet in the whole of the universe there is no force that is either intelligent or eternal, and
we must therefore assume that behind this force there is a conscious, intelligent Mind or Spirit.
This is the very origin of all matter.” (Planck, as cited in Eggenstein 1984.
And here is the link to a book of the quotes from 50 scientists, who have won a Nobel prize, giving their thoughts on "religion". Take a minute and see what they have to say.

Darlene Laski u r fucken stupid einstein did not believe in any god
Just saw ur comment Darlene. Thanks for that source. Does have some interesting quotes and from a very quick check they seem accurate. BUT the author obviously has an agenda and it cannot be used alone. Great example of quote-mining.
Only read the Einstein and Charles Darwin quotes and they are all one-sided and ignore quotes like the ones I have already given which are obviously important in understanding Einstein/Darwins true thoughts. One may reasonably conclude that Einstein/Darwin believed in a non-deistic God.
For Darwins real thoughts on God, we can read his autobiography, whoch gives the opposite impression to the source you provided. bertie.ccsu.edu/naturesci/Evolution/Unit14DarwinRel/DarwinReligion.html
Anyway, thanks for source and ignore ppl like evyn. RUclips comments are so full of hate.
Good Sabbath! I am so glad I found this. Thanks!🙋🏼♀️
"Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind"-Einstein
Can't people just enjoy an amazing talk presented by a scientist who believes in God?
Internet arguments are never productive because there is no face attached to the words. Look at some of these comments. If you were having a face to face conversation, would such things be said?
My one and only complaint is that while this TEDx channel did a good job posting his scientific credentials, it ignored the fact he is also a staff worker for a faith based org on campus.
I use my name and pic for that exact reason but I am on disability and not worried about financial persecution for my views one way or another. Those with repressive careers do not always have that freedom.
Big truth there that I realised recently, internet arguments are totally unfruitful because everyone wants to speak and no-one wants to hear!
@@tomtoledo-hardy I hear you yet I'm more interesting.
But enough about you lets talk about me.
Everyone has a right to play make believe
but don't pretend that make believe is even close to reality.
It's dangerous.
The man did not prove his conclusion that God and Science are interconnected. All he did was say that it's not surprising that God could share some weird properties that quantum particles have. That's not proof of codependency between God and Science.
Dr. E! You made it to TED TALKS. I heard him give this talk as a freshman and I can tell you this man is amazing. I wish everyone who is comfortable criticizing him from behind their computers could meet him in person and ask him their questions. I assure you he would answer them and comfortably admit if he didn't know or have an answer. He has so much more understanding than just what you are hearing in this talk. GO DR. E!
Is he as funny in person? I haven't laughed this hard in a long while.
I would have loved taking his class . God exists, and science is getting a bit closer to understanding how he works
Bald assertion that any gods exist, no evidence presented. Science has not found any evidence of these beings, we have so far only found natural explanations for everything.
@@degaussingatmosphericcharg575 No one asked for you here. You don't have proof yourself to say there is no proof need a do you?
@@JosiahFickinger Does not matter; one can post anywhere they choose. Do not switch the burden of proof; the burden is on those making the claim that gods exist. Same goes for anyone insisting that : elves, fairies, leprachauns, bigfoot, etc exst.
7:00 Let's be clear and honest about what we DO know.
It isn't how "God describes himself".
It's how *man* describes god!
Josh River actually if you believ the the Bible is the word if God then God does describes himself as the Light.
@@setheuraoba2878 I don't want to simply just "believe". I care about things that are actually true! And imho so should everyone else.
We know the bible was written by man. Translated many times. Amended and omitted many times. Doesn't seem like conclusive evidence to me.
It still boils down to mans description of god. Not the other way around.

I pretty much had the same ideas as this guy before I watched the video. I think when we learn about science, we are just discovering the tools of god.
+Jacob Huber But perhaps u do not believe he is/will be the one of the already described gods. Do u?
I like to think so. There's really no point in making a religion if I agree with one. I'm nondenominational Christian.
Your logic is a as flawed as his is.
Every scientific endeavour starts as an act of faith. Without the fundamental belief that there is something to discover, there is no purpose to exploration. If we do not believe we can escape we will remain forever imprisoned.
Hilton Hawkes the aim of the scientific method is, officially, not to discover something of use, but to determine the best answer to a question of interest using the six steps of the method. Some answer can always be obtained, but it can never be the complete truth.
Hilton Hawkes wow this is beautiful.

There are things that science cant explain in some circumstances...however as it was said the foolish said there is no God...thats hypocracy...it was already written way back science initiation...

@@toolbox6740 huh?
Try rotating your head at same frequency. You will see.
the thing i just can’t get over is that we know that all of existence started from a few elements. those elements bonded in miraculous ways. this man is simply saying that those miraculous things are acts of god instead of scientific patterns that we have cannot comprehend yet. i think of lot of the answers to why are concepts our brains cannot grasp
Wow. Think I need to watch this again! I am training to be a religious studies teacher and planning a lesson on science vs religion. Thank you for such an insightful talk!
Reminds me of the movie Rudy.

Great video! It really tells many of us how small minded people have become. Isaac newton and Einstein were both smarter than many of us here on RUclips. They understood things we don't understand. So that's pretty cool to know that many scientists feel the same way.

Even smart people can be wrong..saying they were right just becoz they are smart is a logical fallacy..argument from authority

Great theme... Perhaps, Science and Religion are the wings of Truth and
they need each other. “Religion without science is superstition. Science

I would think the existence of the philosophy of materialism is apparent & evident in converse, beyond freshman debate rulings. It is a tendency to consider material possessions and physical comfort as more important than spiritual values. For example, the exploitation of natural resources without regard for environmental impact.
@@francismausley7239 Why would Christians care about the ecology or environment???. They expect to be taken up into the clouds any day now to meet jesus.

There might be a creator of everything but that creator doesn't have anything to do with the religious books out there. That's the best way to look at it.
All is him, hymn. The universe is his one verse. He is a one hit wonder.
Why not?
Then why were you created? As a human beings we should ask ourselves why this creator created us. This is why religion is important, to answer that Question for you. Our creator sent one message to different people ( prophets) to tell us why he created us.
@@Aissa_gilly975 to enjoy and help others to enjoy. That's it.
Ryan Casey fair. But what makes you want to be good and kind to people? That is the God in you. If you don’t believe in God, I can prove to you that there is a God. I think I’m prepared for it, I’m very excited, mostly due to the fact that you are not like some other people in the comment section that disrespect people just because they don’t agree on something.
How does it matter if god exists or not? If it gives you peace in believing in something (provided you aren't harming others), no one should have the right to tell you what you should do. We as a species must work together, irrespective of our beliefs, to reduce pain and suffering in the world. But all we care about is being right about things that don't matter.
Because if God exists, our creation was intentional and purposeful, not accidental and arbitrary. So it would seem that unless we are able to discern that purpose, then we are living out of touch with our nature and reality. We had better discover that purpose and start working toward it.
It’s weird that when at the speed of light that time no longer processes and God is the light of the world and he lives in eternity 😱🤯
He didn't really convince me about the possibility of god because it leaves open for a ton of questions. But its good enough to keep an open mind about it.

@@SpectrabyteRL
That's not an example. That has nothing to do with why folks believe in God today. But thanks for making up the 99.9% nonsense as if that's some kind of argument. Brilliant! LOL
This hasn't convinced me of a god but this is definitely the strongest argument and most convincing argument I've seen for the proof in god. Well done, I highly respect what you've done here but I still stick to my beliefs of a universe created by and of random events.
I respect that. but I do have one question... I don't want it to turn into an argument I just want a respectful question. the chance that the universe was randomly created is like rolling 2 dice and having it get 12 over 70 times in a row. if that happened in real life you would think the dice are rigged. or in this case there might be no dice at all.
Actually, there is a theory that more Big Bangs had happened before our Big Bang since there is energy that can’t be entirely used up in this space. It...It’s complicated.

Do you believe in the rights stated in the constitution : freedom, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness
Do you have proof of these rights?

For the less intelligent God reveals himself to them in his own way. The intelligent and the wise can think God out.
YEEEEESSS I've been looking at different seemingly miraculous stories in the Bible and have been noticing that there are scientific explanations for all of them, I thought I was crazy and was the only one who thought God and science go hand in hand.. Bravo dude with the cool accent 👏👏
Agreeed
No there isn’t a scientific explanation for any miracle that Jesus did. Miracles by definition go beyond physics and our understanding and are reserved to God himself and his understanding. It’s fooling to think that we can know everything!
@@citrus4419 yeah sorry I meant that science goes along with God but doesn’t explain anything beyond our understanding

Search lecture by Lawrence Principe on YT. You would certainly like his lecture series title "Science and Religion" form The Teaching Company.
One of my favorite Ted Talks of all time.... I hope he has expounded on this in a book
Science does not attempt to explain everything and it is not a substitute for religion. Science is just a means to continue gaining knowledge of the world around us.
I love this TED talk, keep up the good work. The speaker is absolutely incredible, his explanations are original and not some copy paste job. Very well done to the speaker and to TED for publishing this talk. Again it is amazing
rafih112 I absolutely agree!!! Thank u for posting this comment because so many others don't see/understand the brilliance of this TED talk

Isabella Maldarelli or just disagree with it. Considering that they can understand the points but still not reach the same conclusion due to their own subjective viewpoint, it’s an either or fallacy to imagine otherwise.
I hate it when people say science vs God
Obvioustid why he is fake
I participated in a 40-person group exercise between atheists and people with a spiritual/religious model of moral behavior.
Several questions were submitted to BOTH; like how important is the preservation of a human life?
The spiritual group answered "Very important because Life is sacred"
The atheist group answered "IT doesn't matter, it's just a life... like any other living species "
Suppose you were having a HEART ATTACK and on the cusp of dying without someone to help, which of the two groups would you prefer to be near you????
Most scientists will not come out that they believe in a god. Its really not a good move if they want to be taken seriously in allot of respects. The scientific world isn't as open minded as you may think.
It's often career suicide.
As an atheist (and a guy who likes Science), I have no problem with Science stumbling across an irrefutable proof of (any) god's existence. This would answer an very old question "Does god(s) exist?" (my current answer is "probably not") and raise a lot of new and more interesting ones: Where she/he/it lives? What's made of? etc. And the scientist who make this discovery would be the single most famous in History.
Thing is: Science is fact-based. In being so, scientists doesn't support god's hypothesis by a lack of faith, but by a lack of facts.
The scientific community is the most open minded, except by open there's still a requirement for evidence otherwise we're just the crowd cheering the emperors new clothes
Which god is he referring to. because Thor never said those things.
+Doug K The real 100% all natural God is composed of the laws of nature integrated with the forces of physics. You know the God that did actualize the reality of the big bang, Darwinian evolution and rules the universe with the laws of nature that are actualized into all past, present and future reality by forces of physics. Sorry, that non-god supernatural ignoramus that atheists mistake for God does not exist.
good try but the definition of a God is a being with supreme power
henrique ferrera All believers, especially the majority who follow the bible or koran know God as the ultimate reality, the only existence with the supreme power to create & rule a universe from scratch, God is the true reason that everything exists rather than nothing. Moses, Jesus & Muhammad would all agree that is a real definition of God.
The atheist definition of God is a non-existent, fairy-tale, imaginary being with no power to create or rule any universe. No believer would ever agree with the atheist definition of God, not one. All atheists and most theists misidentify God as the obsolete error filled ignoramus in ungodly books like the bible or koran.
The Godliest messengers of the most probable truth - the natural sciences, reason and logic have successfully identified the genuine 100% all natural God as the big bang creator & law of nature ruler of the universe composed of the laws of nature integrated with forces of physics, and that is a verifiable fact.
henrique ferrera Ding Ding Ding -- Wow well said. Yes, laws of nature together with forces of physics do not share human emotion or consciousness, if God were anything like us evolved apes then nothing could or would ever exist. There is only one all natural genuine existence capable of creating & ruling the universe & that existence is God.
We believers in the real God should get together and spread the good news that there is a supreme existence that did create the universe from scratch and does govern all reality with laws of nature that are actualized into physical reality by forces of physics.
if god was the laws that make up the universe. It can't be the creator of the universe for it is the product of something. The universal laws we live in are all the products of something. So god cannot be the creator since he is the product of something.
As Hitchens would say: "what can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence"
Im a christian and just saw the movie Lucy last night. This presentation kind of reminds me of that movie although I would say that the conclusions of this video and Lucy were different in the sense that Lucy ended with the idea that we as humans could basically become God through further understanding or knowledge (through modern science) while throughout the movie continually attributing all of the universe to "natural" causes and thereby leaving no opportunity for God to be part of the picture while Bryan Enderle leaves the possibility wide open based on the same modern science or understanding. Obviously, I agree more with Bryan's conclusions that God exists and completes the total picture of existence. I believe in contrast to the movie Lucy that the more we understand about the universe the closer it will draw us to God. The biggest difference however is that we learn about the universe through experimentation and the scientific method but we learn about God through relationship. God can not be put in a test tube but He can be known through relationship. This has been my experience.
‘Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.’ Jeremiah 33:3
For people (whether a wealthy person, a pilot, truck driver, salesman/business man, travel junky, etc) that drive and fly more throughout their entire life collecting milliseconds every year, is it theoretically possible according to the synchronized clock experiment, to stay younger than those who don't, and is there a way to measure this?
Yes, but I think it would be less than milliseconds.
Thank u all very much
Some of Our greatest thinkers in science.. who embraced Mysticism..... Pantheism.. and.. or.. Idealism........ were… Kurt Godel, Freeman Dyson, Max Plank, Wolfgang Pauli, David Bohm, Albert Einstein, Werner Heisenberg, Erwin Schroedinger, Isaac Newton, Louis De Broglie, James Jeans, Arthur Eddington, Nikola Tesla, Charles Darwin and Carl Jung……
But.. to answer this question we first need to define what we mean by the word - GOD... The word - GOD - functions as a SYMBOL.. representing.. the underlying Unity.. and.. or.. as a METAPHOR.. representing a personification of a motivating power of a value system that functions in human life and in the universe. The force and energy that supports the world.. a personification of the power or force that seems to regulate the physical universe.. etc
All of existence is itself a part of God - God is the sum of ALL natural processes - The Ground of ALL being - Omnipresence (present everywhere), the Supreme or Ultimate reality. The creative and controlling force in the universe - The force regarded as causing and regulating the phenomena of the world by the universal natural laws - God is outside and inside space-time. Not subject to the cycle of birth and death - The Ultimate, the Absolute, Infinite and Eternal.
“God is a metaphor for that which transcends all levels of intellectual thought. It's as simple as that.” - Joseph Campbell
“A young female student accused Jung of being an atheist. Jung was confused and asked the student where she had gotten that idea. The student paraphrased a quote she had read in which Jung said he didn't believe God existed. Jung smiled and said "Dear girl, rest easy, “When we have a relationship to a particular thing or experience with it - belief/faith ceases to be a factor. The truth is this, I have had the experience of being gripped by something that is stronger than myself, something that people call God. So, I will never say that I believe that God exists. I must say I know God exists!" - Carl Jung - The Undiscovered Self
“Science is reticent too when it is a question of the great Unity - the One of Parmenides - of which we all somehow form part, to which we belong. The most popular name for it in our time is God - with a capital ‘G’. “ - "“Quantum physics thus reveals a basic oneness of the universe.”
“We living beings all belong to one another, we are all actually members or aspects of a single Being, which we may in western terminology call God, while in the Upanishads it is called Brahman.” - “We know that whenever God is experienced, it is an experience exactly as real as a direct sense impression, as real as one’s own personality. As such He must be missing from the space-time picture. ‘I do not meet with God in space and time’, so says the honest scientific thinker, and for that reason he is reproached by those in whose catechism it is nevertheless stated: ‘God is Spirit’.”
- Ewin Schroedinger
An interesting talk. It's a shame that some people seem to be completely missing his point though, and getting all heated and irate. Chill out for goodness sake.
+M Barron I've no patience for the irrational and stupid comments, hence my heated exchange with "philosopher".
there is good reason for the frustration. Firstly, if you are an American, you live in a scientifically illiterate country. So it is frustrating as a scientist to see a video that would further drive the ignorance. A scientist doesn't presuppose anything unless there is valid reason. Secondly, this is a TED talk. That is disgusting. A TED talk, ideas worth spreading. No. What he does is use a rudimentary understanding of the concepts to disguise a presupposition. Not science. Then to have the gall to bring up quotes by Newton, a genius in his own time who undoubtedly would disagree with the God Hypothesis were he alive today, to begin his rambling, in an attempt to justify his pseudoscience.
rickypen
My sentiment, Sir and very well put. My skin was crawling, once I realised where he was heading. I thought , one gets invited to give a presentation at TED, his ideas do not belong here, obviously. I bet he'll never get invited again, although damage is done with this one.
rickypen
How come your speaking for Newton and saying what he would or would not believe in today? Plenty of science minded folks believe in God and plenty dont...honestly its really more of a choice then anything since any actual proof of God would be rather outside the bounds of science by definition....its not really a problem of the physical sciences since we can know all about the physical laws and it would tell us nothing about theology or "spiritual matters' (if such a realm existed its would be as untouchable by physics as 3d geometry is by 2d geometry or like trying to use newtonian physics inside a black hole....it simply isnt compatible ....... that said it just kinda bugs me to see you speak for Newton who, while he was rather a jackass as a person was a very very smart dude and should be left the dignity of not having people put words into his mouth
Actually, Newton was known to be a devotedly Christian scientist - he put off the publication of Principia 7 years because he felt that it revealed the mind of God. He was believed to have died a virgin!
The vast majority of scientists prior to the 19th century were theists (inclused deists).
Even the history of Western higher education denotes that the sciences were originally an 'out - growth' of philosophy, which itself was strongly related to theology - PhD = doctorate of philosophy.
I really enjoyed this, even if it's just as a fun thinking exercise. He's not saying that these concepts PROVE God exists, so much as saying that you shouldn't dismiss the possibility as being impossible "because Science!". I don't think science and faith in the existence of some more complex being(s) are necessarily mutually exclusive. I'm also still a little mind-blown by his point that the floor is technically not actually all there . . .
"Seemingly miraculous" is simply code for "we can't explain it yet, we need to do more experiments".
Naoki Watanabe exactly! And then those people then go and say it must be god. As Dawkins would say, “it’s an argument from personal incredulity.”
Yeah, paracetamol was miraculous in Jesus' times. Maybe He used it to cure a lot of fevers. That's what is the point this guy is trying to make. God works within science and has the advanced knowledge of the same. You wouldn't mind believing that an alient species travelled back in time because they invented time travel. Yet, you have an issue with an ever present God.
@@grannyspeachtea7764 Paracetamol was discovered in 1893 in the urine of individuals that had taken phenacetin, a pain-relieving and fever-reducing drug introduced in 1887. Jesus couldn't have used it because it didn't exist - much like the man himself. Also I would mind believing alien species traveled back in time because travelling back in time is impossible according to all known physics. So if an alien turned up on my doorstep claiming to have done so I would require evidence.
@@NaokiWatanabe I feel bad for people like you that cannot understand a conceptual argument. How dense can you be? I don't know if it's idiocy or a sheer arrogance but I'll let you figure that out for yourself. Paracetamol was an "example". Something that humans synthesise easily today would be something way easier for God to synthesise at any point in history because He created it. You're telling me that a God living among men cannot synthesise C8H9NO2 because He had advance knowledge of the tech? A God among men cannot agitate the water molecules that are bound through a universal link so He can walk on it?. Literally? If a dubmbass like you travelled back in time with a phone, you would be worshipped and though of as a God even. It is a conceptual argument. Obviously you're nowhere close to a God. So imagine the power that a God (who is timeless) will have by sheer knowledge and power. Also, you used a key term "all known Physics". Exactly. Do you know that scientists are questioning the CMB that they relied on for so many generations to predict the Big Bang? You won't even be able to recreate the concept of the Big Bang or explain to me why it is postulated.
@@grannyspeachtea7764 Hi.
"You're telling me that a God living among men cannot synthesise C8H9NO2 because He had advance knowledge of the tech? "
No not exactly. What I'm telling you is that there has never been a god living among men.
"A God among men cannot agitate the water molecules that are bound through a universal link so He can walk on it?."
Sorry I missed that Avengers movie.
"If a dubmbass like you travelled back in time with a phone, you would be worshipped and though of as a God even."
Doubtful. Our ancestors were not morons and would would most likely see me as a human who had some sort of a really different looking tool, or maybe jewelry, and would want to know how it was made. I can say this with relative certainty because in a way we've tested the theory. We have plenty of cases where uncontacted or isolated tribes have been introduced to comparatively advanced technology. Turns out they don't bow down and worship the holder as a god like they do in 50s movies. They tend to examine our objects with interest.
"Obviously you're nowhere close to a God."
Depends who you ask but I concede that point.
"So imagine the power that a God (who is timeless) will have by sheer knowledge and power"
Ok, so like a Time Lord or Doctor Manhattan sort of chap.
"Also, you used a key term "all known Physics""
I did.
"Do you know that scientists are questioning the CMB that they relied on for so many generations to predict the Big Bang?"
They aren't.
"You won't even be able to recreate the concept of the Big Bang or explain to me why it is postulated."
What does "recreate the concept" mean? I don't think that's a thing.
Me: I don't believe in god
Friend: What why?
Me: Nevermind, bro did you also know I walked on water?
Friend: Proof?
Me: Nah man, you just have to believe

Underrated comment
Nice
To be honest it was 2000 years ago, if it did happen then the only way to preserve it would be to write it down. Which they did.
Yea bc God himself said no other man had power besides him
Isaac Newton wrote more articles about religious subjects than scientific ones, but he couldn't publish them. Why? The Church would have burned him at the stake. He argued against the Trinity, hellfire and the immortality of the soul. He was a serious student of the Bible. His explanation of Daniel 11 which covers much of human history before it happened is positively amazing.
No wonder this didn't make it to TED.

Please prove it ...There 2400 religions in the world claiming to be thier word of God is true.please help me if you have proof
Akmal Khan please look up Islamic videos, I promise you you will find truth. Look up “9 shocking facts in the Quran)
Some food for thought, the Big bang was the beginning of the universe, since the universe has a beginning some force put it into motion. I could not make my self, my beginning came from an external force, aka my parents. Nothing can create itself, some force always put it into motion. So since we know this, whatever caused the big bang cannot be the universe itself, something else would have caused the big bang. Now here's the really interesting part, since whatever put the universe in motion cannot be the universe itself, that means the external cause of the universe, would not be bound by the universe's laws of time physics etc, because it exists OUTSIDE of the universe. Now it all comes down to whether you believe that this external factor that put things into motion is sentient or not, but i think its food for thought because if there is a "God" I believe this is a reasonable explanation for how he exists. This would also be an answer to the question "well who made god" it would be nobody because everything we understand about creating, destroying, time etc only exists here, inside this universe. What is outside the universe, does not follow the universe's laws, it would be literally beyond it.
Cpt. Koga although i believe in your conclusion, as a philosopher i have to point out the flaws in your argument, i could turn the question back on you by simply asking then what external force created god
@@Lukas-gz2vx Then I would ask you would God be God with a external force or could God have existed beyond our realities of time and always existed.
Well you are forgetting we don’t know everything about this universe or what’s outside. We know it’s expanding so we also know something is beyond the expansion. We just don’t know everything. Some are starting to think there is something outside the universe but only speculation. Just because we haven’t figured it out yet doesn’t mean “god”. You’re basically saying sense we don’t know what “A” is, it must mean god.
This argument assumes that God was the one who started the universe.
"Everything has a cause, The Universe had to have a cause, God was the cause, God had no cause since he's beyond space and time"
"Everything has a cause, The Universe had to have a cause, Leprachauns were the cause, Leprachauns have no cause since they're beyond space and time"
Just because the Universe had a cause that doesn't mean God was the one who created it, we simply don't know. Also, given that the vast majority of things (like thunder and supernovas) come from natural causes, the possibility of the Universe occurring from a natural cause is overwhelming.
@@Kit_Cake well the problem with this theory it doesn't fit within logical thinking, when you see a building you don't think "Well we can't assume there was a builder" same logic with the universe, without a creator it would be impossible to land up with earth yet alone the universe considering the millions conditions of conditions that had to be met for us to exist
He said a tea joke.... what is this time traveling witch craft
Why is is Science vs GOD? Science and GOD are not separate, science is just the proof of all that GOD has done, science itself has never told you, GOD isn't real, a SCIENTIST has, the reason the 'Big Bang' and theories along those lines even exists (which all contradict scientific laws, Law of Conservation of Mass, First law of Thermodynamics, etc) is because of doubt of HUMANS. And speaking on that fact, why would you even want to doubt GOD? If you know the gospel (which translates over to 'good news') of JESUS, you would know that JESUS died FOR YOU, and because of that death, WE HAVE THE REWARD of HEAVEN, why would someone even want to reject that, please humble yourselves, to trust in JESUSS as your LORD and SAVIOR, JESUS loves you so much that, even though many of you say these type of things and actually believe them, HE STILL DIED FOR YOU Romans 5:8 // But GOD demonstrates his own love for us in this While we were still sinners CHRIST died for us. You can spend your whole life trying to disprove GOD but where does that get you? I want you to all think about this, say I was wrong, and you were right, I wasted my whole life trusting in GOD, (and even then it is not a waste because I have grown so much in my relationship in GOD, freeing me from many things I though I would never get out of.) But let's look at this from the opposite situation, say that you were wrong, not only did you waste your whole life being an unbeliever, you wasted your ETERNITY after it, GOD BLESS. GOD is waiting to greet you with open arms, no matter how far you feel. Even one of HIS followers was a man who persecuted and killed followers of CHRIST, Saul (now named Paul) made a 180 turn and accepted CHRIST and even suffered and DIED for CHRIST. Sin is a wicked thing, that leads many to believe these lies, but once you can humble yourselves enough to talk to GOD, even just asking HIM question, and TRULY coming to HIM with a open heart and a listening ear, GOD will make HIMSELF present in your life, maybe HE already has, but many of you have ignored HIM, JESUS is knocking, but HE won't force the door open, JESUS loves you so much that HE wants you to make the decision wether you'll love HIM back, HE won't ever force you to love HIM, because HE knows true love is out of free will. Our consciousness, and conscience is the very proof of a good GOD, evidence is all around you, when will you open your heart to see? GOD BLESS, GOD LOVES YOU, HE is waiting for you to let HIM into your life. :)
You know the destination. Just enjoy the journey. Live this life as good as you can. Why worry about the next life. Everything is just fine.
This video summarized in 4 words: god of the gaps.
Somebody pin this to the top of the comments section 💯.
I’m astonished that humans think they can explain the universe with science and mathematics …. We discovered maths……
You know nothing about „god of the gaps“ and this why you are using it to describe this video
Btw you also didn’t understand what he is saying so try to watch the video again
God always wins because he is truth and Justice...nightmares to humans.
He is not talking about fictional gods that humans created centuries ago
Science doesn't start with a presupposition of god. He does, then goes on to describe in nebulous ways how god could be compatible with science. Starting with assumed conclusions is not how the scientific method works. It's entirely speculative and not grounded in anything demonstrable or investigatable.
socksumi got a feeling (maybe intentionally) that you’ve misunderstood this ted talk.
@@baldy_locks167 He understood it. Socksumi is just stating the fact that you can not use this ted talk as evidence for god.
Beaux Clyde - Nothing in your reply has convinced me that socksumi understood the ted talk.
@@baldy_locks167 Ok ill try to explain how he interpreted the video. He is saying that the talker of the video believes in god and so the talker has only been looking at the parts of science that agree with god. But in order for science to be science you have to look at the whole picture.
@@Beowulf19 He's not presenting this as definitive evidence of anything though. If anything he's just trying to challenge the way we tend to think of "God". Rather than some bearded man in the sky, maybe "God" is a force of nature capable of being observed and understood scientifically. Especially when talking about science on the particle level, you can't really discredit his arguments as "not looking at the whole picture" because quantum physics itself doesn't sit well within the big picture, at least not yet.
I love this! I always feel that the more I know about science, the more I’m learning about God. I believe He created it all. If my Bible and scientific discoveries aren’t exact, then it shows our lack of understanding. Look at how much we have discovered to be true in just the last 150 years. The Bible was written to people who had no concept about those things, nor vocabulary to describe it, so God used language and situations that were familiar to them to communicate with them.
There is no reason for science to try and debunk faith, or faith to debunk science. Both are missing the point. They go hand in hand.
Religion is a man made thing. Bible, Quran etc contains the concept of how jesus, mohammad or the writer of the book envisioned God. Now i kindda understand your point on how the more you learn science the more you learn about the creator but the creator (if there is one) must be outside time so God must know how people in 21st century will demand hard facts about the universe so God wouldnt have said that He created the universe in 6 days equivalent to 6000 years. I think we need to stop defending religions and see it for what it is on the basis of hard facts.
Exactly. Well said. Especially about the language in which it was explained to people of those times.
I started drinking when I was 16. I would
drink at parties, but I also started drinking alone because I was unhappy, and
I was in a lot of emotional pain all the time. My mom was very aggressive when
I was younger, and my brother hated her and so did I. He started hanging out
with shady people, he started failing all his classes, he was never home, and
my parents fought all the time. I also ran away several times. I was always
trying to figure out a reason as to why I was here or what the purpose of life
was. So, I started looking at different philosophies, religions, and beliefs. When
I was 18 after I was hungover, I got on my knees and I prayed for the first
time. I asked if God was real that he would show me he was real because I
couldn’t take it anymore. I was crying when I prayed for this. At that moment I
felt a presence come over me like a wind. It was barely noticeable, but it was
unlike anything in my life I had experienced up until that point. I was
surprised when I felt it and I remember saying “what was that?” after that
experience I pretty much forgot what happened and kept partying, until my
senior year when I got arrested. After my arrest, my parents lost all their
trust in me and I was expelled from high school. I was told never to come back.
At that time, I felt afraid and hopeless. That’s when I started looking for God,
and I prayed that he would reveal himself in my life and that he would give me
signs. My prayers began getting answered so consistently that I couldn’t deny
that God was doing something. It was mysterious and compelling. I ended up in
Church and started reading the bible hours a day. I stopped hanging out with
all my other friends because they were continually getting arrested. I was able
to forgive my family and myself and to ask to be forgiven. I noticed how at
Church people were judgmental and how they formed cliques but were afraid to be
around anyone else different from them. It increased my faith because I
realized Jesus was not like that and ever since I was young, I saw people as
people regardless of who they were. After a while, it’s like I could see God's
presence was in my life and then it felt like he wasn’t, and then he was, and
then he wasn’t. One day I woke up and felt more depressed than I ever have in
my entire life. I felt like I was dying on the inside. That night I prayed, and
I said, God, I don’t see my life five years from now I'm going to die Jesus
save me Lord, please save me. I was weeping when I said it and when I asked him
to save me, I felt a presence inside of me like a heartbeat, and I felt it once
like a pulse, and I said Lord please save me and I felt it again even stronger.
It was like radiance. When I woke up the next morning, I had transformed
everything felt brand new like I was a kid again. All my fears and all my
racing thoughts everything was gone. I looked at my hands, and I said this
can’t be real it’s impossible. When I looked at myself in the mirror, I saw a
different person. I started praying, and the holy spirit became entirely real
to me it was washing over me and inside of me. It was total love and peace, and
I heard a voice but not an audible one, it was an inner voice. It said I am
with you; I love you, I will never leave you, it’s done it’s finished. That was
May 3rd, 2009, and ever since then I’ve followed God, I have seen many things
change and many things I know wouldn’t have changed without faith and belief. I
know what it’s like to be lost to feel you have no hope. Don’t ever think
you’re stuck, or life can’t change because it can. My mom is a Christian now,
Its night and day. Some of the things that went away during that period were
severe anxiety and my addiction to alcohol. I’ve seen and experienced so many
things that are miraculous and seen how God has worked in my life. When we ask
God to forgive us for what we’ve done and turn away from our sins and wrongdoings
and we believe in Christ's sacrifice everything changes. His word says if we
confess with our mouths that Jesus is Lord and believe in our hearts that he
died and rose again we will have eternal life but not just life after death but
abundant life in the present. Our sins are erased not only past, present, and
future but our burdens and fears are lifted also. Our thoughts, our minds, our
hearts, our souls are transformed and united with God and we know his spirit
lives in us. If you seek, pray, and knock you will know JESUS IS KING!!! HE
LIVES!
Wow
at this point in time I suspect God is what scientists call "dark matter".
+A. DUBITANTE No dark energy because we are expending. If God was dark matter, we would be uniting and not repelling. All religion divide everything in universe. Entropy is the great Satan. LOL

@GDDM sam not if it turns out that force of nature has a will and consciousness. We dont really know. We know enough about wind that you couldnt call wind, God
See even science cant hide the truth that God is real
Science usually delves only into the how, but not the why. Many like to think about the Big Bang, but not about something or someone that banged it.
But even still, the idea that time, space, and matter had beginnings necessitate an existence that transcends all these three--omniscient (not to bound to the present), omnipresent (not bound to space), and omnipotent (not bound by energy).
+님라프라스 Science is the how, but religion is the why.....
jagjit bhatia Usually yes.
Why does a rock roll down a hill? There is no why.

Edit : GOD!
Notice he says god and not God
So?
So is my creator the great and almighty and all powerful rainbow unicorn
@@nickgrice7288 look I'm not trying to tell you what you should think, however using rhetoric like "hurr durr magical unicorn" does you absolutely no good in trying to answer the big question that is about God. Try thinking a little more critically about your position before you spout nonsense.
@@yougetonthathorseyougottar6126 Prefaces comment with "I'm not trying to tell you what you should think," proceeding by telling him what he should think. I agree with you, but I also thought it was funny lol.
This guy is genius, one of the most stimulating talks since Clifford Stoll perhaps
not a genius--it's actually very elementary science we learn as children. Most people are just blind.
I came for the comments and I’m honestly surprised on the level of information I’ve seen on the two sides. It really all boils down to the conclusion of “we don’t know unless we see it” or a “we can neither approve it nor dissprove it” situation for me honestly
Leaving the question to be: Should you believe in Astrology, Numerology, Chinese Zodiac, Ghosts, Spirits, Afterlife, Faith Healing, ESP, Clairvoyance, Divining, Telepathy, Out of Body Experiences, Crystal Balls, Voodoo,,,,
BEFORE rational and reasonable scientific and sound evidence for any of them has been demonstrated???
Is life about wishful thinking, or logic and reason?
You are in the right direction man.
Science is coming close to God it depends how you see it. The weirdness of quantum physics will prove everything, sooner or later.
Substitute x for god, and what profound truths have you discovered?
Quantum also disproves it in another way.
The truth doesnt change no matter how you look at it...
We're not that close to God's technology.
We are like little children playing with video games.
@@oznerriznick2474 It's our technology. We have no evidence any god made anything.
- At the tsunami 2004 died 200000 people.
- From hunger die millions of children
- thousands die in religious wars and attacks
This only can be explained, when god is... :
- a weak god
- a sadistic god
- non-existent
Free will is expensive... there is a great price to pay... millions starving children.....stop eating meat and diary... as the grain to feed billions of cows and pigs belongs to the starving people... its not God who is not feeding them it is selfish people..who need to have bacon..... What religious wars, WWI..alone killed 60 million , more than all the religious wars in history.. then you have WW2, Korean War, Russian Revolution, Chinese Revolution, and on and on and none of them are religious wars... you have stalin and lenin who murdered millions ,....both atheists... and on and on...
@@SharonBalloch - where's the connection between free will and 200000 deaths from tsunami?
@@SharonBalloch Starting a war does not actually have anything to it religious or not but often used as an excuse or encourage the soldier
But I agree on the tsunami then we having kids born with sickness how the fk is that free will?
I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect, has intended for us to forgo their use - Galileo
Wonderful video, learned so much !!
Name one thing you learned.
@@gerardjones7881 that the composition of materials is of a 99,99999999999999 air. which makes existence quite relative, that is the quick off only :)
Ahh someone please pick up the book from the ground :p
Why it’s just a book :/
Love this! I hope more people see it. Please share !
I wish there was a ‘love’ not a ‘like’ button, so I can hit it indefinitely
Definitely did not change my view. There is nothing here he says where science supports any claims or stories of the Bible. How god has a human son Jesus like some mythical Demi god. This man is confused because science and religion do not fit together at all. One shows proof of evolution the other thinks we are special creations, one is showing us that there multiple solar systems in all the galaxies and there might be intelligent and primitive life, the other thinks everything was created for us here on earth, one believes his book is right and is the way to heaven, the other goes after different experiment to prove. People continue to believe in god because they need the comfort but they don’t realize it’s a belief a faith there’s no support to back any of it.
heres my take: i believe in God but i dont believe in religion or the bible which is what man made. science definetly explains the creations in this earth but science itself does not create anything. something created all this and its something that cant be explained by humans because its way beyond us. humans are just too hungry for answers to everything. either way, in the end we will find out if God is real. all i know is death sounds more peaceful to me either way and i cant wait for my time to come. life has been quite the struggle and i will miss certain things from this life but itll be nice not to feel pain or suffering again.
That's okay, but let me ask you this. Have you ever honestly asked yourself if your level of education in both fields is so extensive, that you can actually regard your viewpoint as a dogmatic truth? Have you read the bible for yourself and come to your own conclusions about what it is saying/describing? Have you experimented with the physical world, delved into your psyche, explored the limits of possibility for yourself, or even approached research in these areas without an agenda for interpreting the information? Have you honestly? It is likely that you have not, and your beliefs are just the product of a skeptical mind. A mind skeptical of intrusive viewpoints and perhaps bitter towards those who believe they have attained salvation. Unfortunately; this state of being is hardly any different than that of a religious fanatic. For, as it stands, you are only subscribing to a set of beliefs that have been given to you; without approaching every possibility with the same degree of skepticism you afford to the theistic explanations. Science has become a religion for you only because it affords an explanation of the world with a lesser degree of abstraction. But just think; everything you know is an abstracted truth; your language for describing things is only a framework your mind has built for making use of the world, but does nothing to describe the true nature of things. Every instance of an object is its own separate entity in reality; regardless of what it means to you. I implore you to try to be more open; because you will find that there is no salvation to be found in shutting out any possibility; challenge yourself to sift through every piece of information you are presented with and discover the truth of things for yourself. It is within our nature to be adventurous and to strive to discovery. Calling the collective discovery of others endeavors facts does nothing to free you, but rather imprisons you in your own subjective framework.
Scientists come across as taking science for granted. It is a grace. Our disbelief in God is like demanding we know that something is true before we do the challenging work of slowly discovering our good nature. There’s no argument to have for me, because I fear doubting but haven’t since I converted to Catholicism and find science a really interesting little pocket of our development towards better health and greater wonderment at this beautiful reality we were given
'God in the gaps.' Knowledge has grown since this was made, and he made inaccurate statements as foundation of his points. Im not saying he is wrong. Im saying his 'facts' dont help his point. They arent quite facts. This does more harm than good I believe. One should be on firm ground, especially in this sort of discussion. Example, The photon being 'outside of time' would be more accurate said 'photons do not experience time.' They are clearly in time, we see them. Little things like this are where big distortions come from. 'There is nothing in the empty space inside atoms.' Popular idea, but not a statement science would make. We may not see anything there, but that means only that we dont see anything. NOT that nothing is there.
We will never be able to know everything.
Well not we but if we progress as humanity some point we will.way way way way you get the point, distant future
St.Lopikong III it’s impossible to know everything
Seeing Atheists and Christians argue is more entertaining than anything on TV nowadays😂🍿
Really nice presentation. I liked the example at the end with the boiling water and tea. I absolutely agree that God would be an illusion if science did not support God's existence and interaction in our world.
This man is brilliant! And he is totally correct - God can definitely be all he says he is - he created the universe! Dr E is explaining scientifically how this can be
Remember humans have finite thinking - we don’t think like God. Yes science and God ARE interrelated - there is a beautiful flow of order
Michele Tortorella To use statements such as “correct” means demonstrating beyond doubt. Such demonstration did not happen here only a bunch of stories. In fact, if it is probability you enjoy hearing then it is much more likely that we are apart of a simulation than we are created by a higher being. It’s very tiring to see statements and comments like these.
or palmor if we’re in a simulation then the this high entity created this complex computer.
A simulation doesn’t exist unless someone creates it.
John Oliveira well, no one said this is the case but if it is - isn’t it more likely that humans created it? We use multiple simulations daily in our computers that are created by us. Your main constrain is that you first decided there is a higher entity and then try to fit everything to that narrative. Not the way to find truth mate
or palmor your telling man created the universe 😂 nah mate I’m not going to buy that was a rational valid thought.
John Oliveira Nope not what I said at all. Using a smily face to dismiss other peoples views is not very bright nor it insinuates you’re intelligent. I recommend exploring, reading, trying to better understand the world around you in a way that is backed by logic, measured sightings and data. Good luck.
P.S I said that humans created the simulation not the universe. No one knows If the universe was created but even if it was nobody knows by who no matter what they tell you.
Some people are too blind to believe that nature and the laws of nature are not put by someone, they just exist. That's like saying a ship can build itself and run its course itself without someone's help. It's saddening that so many Intelligent scientists are atheists. It's funny that in the 21st century we are still arguing about God's existence. Anyways, this was a very nice and illuminating talk, it raised my faith even more. May Allah bless this guy and bless us all. Ameen
Great video. It reminds me of the Zen koan regarding an argument two scientists are having about the fundamental nature of the tree branch. One insists the branch is a support for dozens of twigs and hundreds of leaves. The other is adamant that the branch is a conduit for fluids to flow up from the roots and down from the photosynthesizing leaves. Tiring after hours of debate they notice a dog sleeping in the shade.
