Once a scientist has created biological life in a laboratory from non-living matter and can give a reasonable explanation as to how the same event could have happened in nature, the gods will be on the ropes.
An interesting point at 6:21 "everything is just rules." Al Kwarzami destroyed the science/logical investigation advantage Islamic culture enjoyed by claiming that the rules we think exist are not permanent, but are only apparently so. Allah, if It wanted, could negate gravity, the nature of light, the composition of atoms....
Within a century, Islam went from the forefront of math/science to a dead stop because it adopted Al Kwarzami's philosophy wholesale. What a waste.

When I see the fast decline of religion in many countries for example in Europe already, I know one day the religious will be in a minority in the rest of the world. It depends largely on how well other countries can organize things like education, secular government etc.
Science is advancing exponentially these days. I can see that in 5 or 10 years psychologists will officially declare that belief in the abrahamic faiths as a form of insanity. Any believers left will be monked up in some cave somewhere. It will be called the talking monkey cave, or if they take a vow of silence it will be called the mute monkey cave.

My question to any theist posing this question "Let me know when a scientist learns how to create life from non-life." is as follows:
If a scientist does end up creating life from non-life in a laboratory (I'm willing to place bets on science here) will you accept defeat or just come up with a new question?
@AkrayBothorda Ah, 'moving the goal post'. In that case, you'll need a few extra eons for them to figure it out and even then I can't guarantee they'll admit defeat. Y_Y
First theists tried to brainwash people into believing in a story book version of 'god' who answers prayers and passes judgment.
When that became ridiculous in light of advancing science, they switched the 'god' to a more scientific-sounding esoteric concept, complete with science lingo, in order to sound dignified and legitimate.
When scientific understanding advances even more the next step will inevitably be the total abandonment of 'god' altogether. Patience, my friends.
Also put the Urim and the Thummim in the breastpiece, so they may be over Aaron's heart whenever he enters the presence of the LORD. Thus Aaron will always bear the means of making decisions for the Israelites over his heart before the LORD.
@kingkong8974 The criterium for life as defined in biology are these. An outter membrane, metabolism and a means of replication. Viruses have neither the membrane nor metabolism. All they do is copy themselves.
Also, life proper is not to be confused with sentience. Mr. Data was a sentient being. That's undeniable. He was self aware and he even had an emotion chip. But he did not replicate. Nor was the material of his body self replicating like organic cells. He was sentient non life.
I would argue that viruses are alive, because they, when in a host, display all the hallmarks of life. And the major selling point for me is the fact that they are subject to the same natural biological laws - such as evolution - that all other life is.
Two rednecks thinking they are intelligent. Matt's a quarter way there but the other guy is a complete clown. Why call these clowns looking for answers, they are redneck fools.
Rather, you can't kill a deeply cherished belief that one can't ever technically disprove. And you can rest assured that believers will always carefully define "god" in such a way so that he is beyond any empirical analysis, no matter how advanced our knowledge of the universe becomes.
Putting religion aside for a moment, why the heck is astrology still around? It's not even a religion, but it's still quoted and newspapers for "fluff" pieces still talk to astrologists and numerologists and give them the time of day.
Why?
They're almost worse then religious people, because they're even easier to debunk. I just simply don't understand why it's still around.
Because astrology is fun. Superstitions are also fun (I take it you've never gone fishing). It's the idiots who take the stuff seriously (and the con artists who make money off them) who ruin it.
@TheAtheistExperience i hope im around when they start building sentient machines, just so i can say to everyone "huh you see, conciousness isnt supernatural magic hokus pokus"
it will prove all that is needed to produce conciousness is physical systems
EVERYONE LISTEN UP!!!!! If anyone truely wants to know the scientific explanation of what "God" is, I suggest you check out the work of researcher Nassim Haramine. He discovered the secret of creation and has come up with the MOST PROFOUND Unified Field Theory. "God," is basically a Shperical Dynamic System of Energy bound by it's own equalibrium. It looks like a spherical double torus with two vortecies at it's poles and a singularity at it's center. His theory has alot to do with Geometry.

Al-Quran has 1400 years ago and Muslim Scientists has been declared "He (God) makes you (human), in the wombs of your mothers, in stages, one after another, in three veils of darkness".
Al Quran sura Az Zumar;6
".....He (God) makes you, in the wombs of your mothers, in stages, one after another, in three veils of darkness. . . ."
Have the Bible and scientists states "He (God ) makes you (human), in the wombs of your mothers, in stages, one after another, in three veils of darkness"?
I think we should kill retards for god, everyone makes mistakes even god so we should help god fix his mistakes by killing those retards. Save a lot of money for people and not those things.
@Jostedalsosten It's sexy, dontcha know, ya sure ya betcha. It's different than the Scandinavian-American accent of my youth, but still brings me back. ;)
Nothing and no one can create itself. So either god has always been and created the universe, or the universe has always been, I go with the latter, since I have no evidence of God.
@47saeed I'm not religious but the universe hasn't always been. It has been shown that the universe is expanding from a single point so all matter must have at one point been at that point so the universe must have had a beginning.
@666or999 The Big Bang theory does not say it was the beginning of everything; it was the beginning of the only things that we can definitely measure, some physicist think we can never know what was before the singularity, some physicist think we may be able to find out. There are many scientific explanations for the cause of the Big Bang. String theory, Big Bang being born out of black holes etc.
@TheAtheistExperience news, the first synthethic cells have been made. you can find them on youtube and google. just search sythethic cell. the first life form have been made with compleatly non-living mather.
@123footballers lol we can't prove that something doesn't exist. ok can you prove that unicorns don't exist? i mean if you show some evidence of god, and show me what he/she can do then i'lll believe that he exists, until then i have no good reason to think the he exist.
@123footballers Is there ANYONE who can prove ANY god exists ?
If You claim with absolute certitude that a god exists, Then the burden of Proof is on You to Provide Verifiable Factual Proof NOT scripture to support Your absolute belief !
Is there any A-unicornist or A-goblinist that can prove unicorns and goblins don't exist? Atheism is not about proving anything. It is the lack of belief in a God because of the lack of evidence to support one/him/her/it. It is a pointless title that nobody should need to use, sadly it is all we have to differentiate from those that do hold the belief in a God with NO evidence to support it.
@SupaShang exactly because the VAST majority of American adults are probably A-Unicornist or A-goblinists and those probably include mostly Christians and other theists.
If so, then why are people asking atheists to disprove a God that they don't believe in? It is an oxymoron if you really think about it. Atheists acknowledge the CONCEPT of a God, yet reject the EXISTENCE of God due to the lack of evidence. I don't understand why more people don't understand this mentality. Warning analogy ahead! Conceptualising a blue hedgehog that jumps and collects rings does not make it tangible matter.
@SupaShang atheists don't need to disprove God. Theists need to prove the God which most of them are so certain exists. And yes Sonic the Hedgehog is not tangible either because it is at best an action figure but usually is just a bunch of pixels on the screen.
Exactly. "Asonicist" is a title that nobody would want. Just like the way atheists would rather not have to call themselves an atheist. I'm an atheist, but it is a label I could do without. Sadly, it's the only thing we have to firmly state that because there is no evidence for a God - that is why we don't believe one exists. Creationists get angry because the onus is on them to prove something they cannot. But everyone knows that anyway. :)
There will always be religion until it is no longer a viable business. Until conartists no longer make money from their cons, conartistry will continue.
Sorry, but I have seen enough clips of this "Dr." Zakir to know he is full of crap. I am not going to sit through 4 hours of religous retoric to fish out what you think is "proof" of God.
If you would be so kind as to give me the highlights of what you think is relevant to proving God, I would be happy to discuss it with you.
God of the gaps will eventually push the religious towards Deism rather than Christianity or Islam or any other religion. I think it's possible that Deism will become the future majority religion, because it merely posits a creative force outside of what we can examine, and this allows to persist without scrutiny.
They talk about science and progress reaching a point at which religion and superstition is an embarrassment and a "hobby" and taken seriously by very few people, but progress can always be undone. A third world war, a good sized astroid stirke, a world catastrophe of some sort...progress could be set back in a number of ways and fear and trama and loss of knowledge could result in increased religiousity on a world scale. It can happen.
Maybe, but would the monotheisms, the truly harmful ones, ever reappear? I doubt it. Especially given that any progress after a 'reset' would likely be faster than before, since not all the knowledge would be destroyed. Doing that would require humans' extinction.
If your not bound by the universe that means your beyond it but you can't go beyond the universe so he is bounded by the universe which to sum it up load of shit his a fairy tale
The internal inconsistencies and unlikely supernatural claims of any holy text are in no way related to the God question. The God question is an inquiry into the ultimate nature of reality. If there was a calculating intellect behind existence. These questions can be divorced from religious thinking.
The problem with "life" is that there is a gray area between non-life and life, just like there is a gray area between life and death. People can be more dead than alive. Dieing usually doesn't happen in a split second, so there is not one moment when life suddenly changes into non-life, and likewise life as we know it didn't suddenly pop into existence out of 100% dead material. At least, not unless a god magically blew some "life force" into a non-living clay figure...
@TheAtheistExperience In response to life popping up, that's only really an issue if we think that time is finite and not infinite or looped in some fashion. Time is an obscure concept still though, one of those people could debate until they died and get nowhere.
@TheAtheistExperience i agree there is a grey area between non life and life. but there is no grey area between life and death, its just really hard to pin point the exact moment. but you cant exist in a state of being alive and being dead at the same time like schroediner's cat.
(continued) why cant this pre-big bang object be conscious? It had all of the elements in the universe and literally infinite amount of time to evolve, so why cant this have evolved some type of consciousness over time? This would explain all the "luck" we had to become what we are today. If you really understand how the big bang and evolution works, think about this for a while and please let me know how I am mistaken.
What about people that believe in science and god? Einstein, one of the greatest scientists of all time believed in a god just not the one described in the bible. I myself think it is not reasonable that everything including the big bang happened all by accident. I think there must be some type of consciousness or force that drove the big bang and evolution. Think about what it must have been before the big bang. It is theorized that all elements were mixed together in to one point. whay cant...
Religion will die eventually, Athiest theory hasn't been around long enought to take hold like religion did, but piece by piece, lie by lie, Gods will fade away, like zeus and thor, and Sheogorath
u guys are fucken smart...i try to tell people the same shit....this is my first time seeing your video and i have said just about everything you guys are saying....
Funny how something that has evolved to ultimately become inherent to the human condition( i.e. religions and beliefs in gods) can't be quantified by atheist reason.
matt struggles to make the connection that our brains have evolved to a level of comprehending abstract thought and imagination. You can in fact learn from just imagining.
matt is just offering an opinion of a non existent Utopia that is a myth...lol irony
Yes,man wants to become like God,and in control of the forces of nature,and a master of the universe.Science alone will save us from our sins and make humanity's salvation possible....without God and Christ,the way,the truth and the life will have to sought elsewhere.Good luck.
Is belief in God really for the confused? That implies that those scientists who do believe in God are also confused as well.If science has killed God,then why are do people still believe Him? Surely,as science has triumphed over God and now stands over the corpse,there is nothing to stop godless humans from ultimately becoming,through SCIENCE,(the beacon of absolute truth) what he doesn't now currently believe-GOD!
Has God known the formula: E=Mc^2 ? If God has known the formula why HE / SHE /IT didn't write it in His Bible? # In my opinion Religion studied the world inside and Physics studied the world outside The Physics explains Logically what Nature and Religion are Religion gives the Practical path to reach the Ultimate Nature of Reality ==========. Israel Socratus
The majority of people at my school are atheists/agnostic (I'm pretty lucky to live here). The younger generations are more atheist, so most likely their kids will be even more atheist, and so on and so on. But it will take a long time, I think, for atheism to become the majority, which I believe someday it will. There will always be a few loonies though, no matter what.
Flat earthers deny evidence and fabricate stories of a global conspiracy, and that is what Christians are beginning to do. I think that trend will just continue in the future.
Science tells us that big things come from small things, not the other way around. If there is a god, he must have been created through a scientific process. The statement "before there was god, there was nothing" is scientifically proven to be false. Keep in mind that many religious people, specifically in the mormon community, completely agree with the statement i just made.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Science kill God - not likely. Atheists don't even know what life is. Your lives are a selfish waste - when your dreams are realized they don't bring happiness. You are poor and have little love. you are pinnochio the little wooden boy who thinks he's alive. I've seen the supernatural power - you are slaves to a stunted materialistic worldview. You don't even consult the Biblical scholars - just fight with laymen. You serve the power of the ego and the selfwill - little gods who will fail.
And to you "life" is believing that some sky pixie made everything 6000yrs ago? And show some proof of the "supernatural power". No, dont just say "ive seen it!!" That isnt proof.
And to you... you simply believe what scientists want you to believe no matter how much they lie to you.... just like evolutionist. What have science ever create that its not already there in existence?
Im an atheist and im having a pretty good time, i work strongly with my community and share much love with my friends and family.
Just remember, if there is a god, he likely loves me much more than you because i do good things just because its right, and you likely only do them out of fear. Hell, i probably have more of a chance at heaven than you do.
Albert einstein - Does God exist ?!?!?!?! Real Story watch it for all you people who rely on science ....take it from one of the greatest scientists of all time.
Albert Einstein "WAS NOT A THEIST" but don't take my word for it-you do the research!!! Did Einstein believe in a supreme being that DID NOT interact with man kind? That's debatable!! Again(for the third time for slow theists), he DID NOT believe in an interactive God!!
And Einstien said and I quote, "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."
Spinoza and Einstine were Pantheists. And by that, i mean they both used the word "god" as a metaphor for the mysteries of the universe. I myself, am an atheist
I just think it's dumb to use preoccupied terms for things like "god" for things that. It's as stupid as the name of the Church of Satan... which doesn't have much to do with what most people know as "satan."
i man and his god squad were walking down the sidewalk holding bibles wearing cross t shirts or something like that. he started to say something to me about god and i began to laugh at him. he got really mad.
Where I live science and intellectuals, has killed God in a political sense. If you say in public that your faith directly affects your political motions and voting, you would be torn apart by media and opinion. We would call that none democratic. Obviously there are believers in politics, but those people keep it PRIVATE. I think we have succeeded in that sense. I'm afraid that in none progressive countries such as America or Brazil it will take a lot of time. But we'll all get there!
That so much ppl can't accept the way how another live.. you don't believe in god? Be happy and be proud who you are if you can rely on yourself you have youre own faith in youre hands
God exists in the mind of confused folk. And these confused folk empower their imaginary god by acting as his agents. Helping them not be confused diminishes the power of their imaginary god.
Hence the idea of killing god.
God doesn't exist, but the idea of god is alive.
Kill it whenever you are presented with the opportunity.
The idea of god is the worst aspect of the human condition wrapped up in sanctimonious humbug.
@Oceanus57 funny how well your idea worked the first time when it was realized in Russia by Stalin, only he had the secret police to kick your teeth in if you didn't agree.
Also funny that it didn't work.
Is it logical that your idea is not very good?....
Okay... There's a fundamentally flawed logic here among many comments.
No, science can't answer it all with 100% certainty, but religion doesn't even TRY. What god is, essentially, is just a relabeled unknown.
That's why religion is so viciously effected at breeding ignorance. Instead of encouraging making the unknown known, they encourage keeping the unknown unknown but just calling the unknown "god dun it".
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
...you guys could get your heads together and make an ASS!!!...what are you going to say when you face God...you guy's are idiot's...oh so you believe that there may be a God...well newsflash...God was here and they nailed his ass to a cross...so I can't help but think we would do the same...nobody like the nice guy...
I didn't see him neither do I have proof for that he was here, except a book that was man made. Perhaps I should write a book about fairies and claim that as a proof for fairies existence. Even if he was here, what proof is there that he was divine or had divine connections to God? None, none none. I have no rational and credible reason to believe there is a God, thus I'm an idiot? An idiot to me is someone who believes in something without credible and rational proof. Look at yourself.

If you don't understand the Urim and Thummim you will never understand the will of God.
Exodus 28:30
Also put the Urim and the Thummim in the breastpiece, so they may be over Aaron's heart whenever he enters the presence of the LORD. Thus Aaron will always bear the means of making decisions for the Israelites over his heart before the LORD.

@kingkong8974 The criterium for life as defined in biology are these. An outter membrane, metabolism and a means of replication. Viruses have neither the membrane nor metabolism. All they do is copy themselves.
Also, life proper is not to be confused with sentience. Mr. Data was a sentient being. That's undeniable. He was self aware and he even had an emotion chip. But he did not replicate. Nor was the material of his body self replicating like organic cells. He was sentient non life.

It is the lack of belief in a God because of the lack of evidence to support one/him/her/it. It is a pointless title that nobody should need to use, sadly it is all we have to differentiate from those that do hold the belief in a God with NO evidence to support it.

If so, then why are people asking atheists to disprove a God that they don't believe in? It is an oxymoron if you really think about it. Atheists acknowledge the CONCEPT of a God, yet reject the EXISTENCE of God due to the lack of evidence. I don't understand why more people don't understand this mentality. Warning analogy ahead! Conceptualising a blue hedgehog that jumps and collects rings does not make it tangible matter.

Exactly. "Asonicist" is a title that nobody would want. Just like the way atheists would rather not have to call themselves an atheist. I'm an atheist, but it is a label I could do without. Sadly, it's the only thing we have to firmly state that because there is no evidence for a God - that is why we don't believe one exists. Creationists get angry because the onus is on them to prove something they cannot. But everyone knows that anyway. :)

The problem with "life" is that there is a gray area between non-life and life, just like there is a gray area between life and death. People can be more dead than alive. Dieing usually doesn't happen in a split second, so there is not one moment when life suddenly changes into non-life, and likewise life as we know it didn't suddenly pop into existence out of 100% dead material. At least, not unless a god magically blew some "life force" into a non-living clay figure...

No, science can't answer it all with 100% certainty, but religion doesn't even TRY. What god is, essentially, is just a relabeled unknown.
That's why religion is so viciously effected at breeding ignorance. Instead of encouraging making the unknown known, they encourage keeping the unknown unknown but just calling the unknown "god dun it".
