Wouldn't it be lovely if religious people (atheists included) would concentrate more on following their own religion (moral ethics blablabla etc.) instead of imposing beliefs onto others as if they have found the truth?
The second you are preassumptious about anything you cannot learn any more for you are denying the very idea tho change your views on your perceived world.
Religious or not - asking the questions and answering them according to logics isn't harmful.
WTF...for 1) when did i mention elementary particles. 2) elementary particles are simply particles that don't consist of a sub-structure. 3) From my understanding elementary particles quarks e.c.t are genrally measured rather than observed (I maybe wrong)
4) If you were reading my comments I thought it was pretty obvious I am far from being a religious person...im a proud Atheist.
In 5 billion years...it will not matter to Earth anyway. Humans will de-evolve into a society similar to what is shown in the movie Idiocracy. Observation shows this decline. Reality TV, hundreds of thousands of views of a video with a woman saying she is on a toilet, while a video like this takes 5 years to get 100k. Man kind will never move beyond this galaxy let alone this solar system to save itself. It will watch Jerry Springer while the Sun bloats and boils it away forever. Amen.
Universe came from the Black Hole. All the Universe ultimately will fall in the Single Black Hole & then it will be busted & then a new Universe will initiate. This is the Hindus, Vedas theory of Universe. This Happen again & again. This universe is eternal. No beginning & No Ending. God is in each & every atom of this Universe. Life is every where. Each & every ATOM has an eternal LIFE. Only Human is not enjoying Life but every atom is enjoying life.
Now i'm not the sharpest tool in the shack, but if in the Large Hadron Collider you take nothing and collide it with nothing... i'm gonna take a wild guess that nothing will happen. I admire Dr. Hawking and respect his Big Bang theory but i find that dismissing the existence of anything before the Bang is as naive as parting the seas or walking on water. Every human being in one point or another in their life, has felt the inexplicable presence of a higher and harmonious intelligence.
@MrGlobalAnimal Believing in existence of Laws of Universe is equal believing in God... One might say that Laws existed for ever and ever, others might say that God existed for ever and ever, two arguments are not mutually exclusive... Now tell me, which argument is more accurate, ie, more positive?
@mappingtheshit which argument is more accurate?For one, it's not a matter of believing in the laws of physics they are there this can't be denied, it's a matter of understanding them. GOD is only introduced as explination when science can't provide one. The theory of genral relativity has yet to be chalenged, gravity, space & time, matter, electrons, protons, neutrons, the nucleus & sub atomic particles all exsist they have been & can be witnessed by man. GOD can not be witnessed only percieved
@theELUSIV If I cannot witness the GOD why I need this shit? God has not any influence on me/ I am a very decent human, I never steal, I never kill, I never do harmful things to other beings... I would rather enjoy about finding the secrets of Universe than praying in the little pathetic church or mosque wasting the precious time
@theELUSIV You are super dumb if you insist on that elementary particles can be witnessed... That's why religious people should keep out of discussions of this kind
hey i just came up with a new theory while i was high. its called the 2bit theory. there is either a positive or a negative and that is the law of everything that exists / existed / will exist. Examples : it either exists or it doesn't exist / either positive and negative matter (dark matter) and even complex things like good and evil. if u look around everything in the world has 2 sides. and then multiple things other than + and - form from combining + - in different patterns like a computer
@DarkDecemberDawn Is your God fact? Or a compilation of hearsay passed down from aristocracy to aristocracy to control the peasants...which has been proven to be so? Oh, and WHICH "god" do you speak of? Faith feels nice n cozy doesn't it? Good luck in your reality which trusts the equivalent to Santa Claus and your drug dealing doctor.
What a brain do we have humans..read first 4 words and think who did assume the Big Bang theory and was he a Muslim? "Have those who disbelieved not considered that the heavens and the earth were a joined entity, and We separated them and made from water every living thing Then will they not believe? " so simply ALLAH or the one and only GOD we know talks about it what made the modern Muslims who read and hear about this theory hold there religion...read about Qura'an you will be surprised
He failes to point out that the Big Bango Teory is no HIS but was proposed by a Catholic Belgan priest George Lamaitre. Eisntaisn belived the universe was constant with no begining not and end and fougth the Big Bang. He later reluctanty recanted. He was an idiot that never touched a telescope.
@siquitibum Einstein was an idiot, lets see if you'll ever be as popular as him or as smart, an idiot calling someone else an idiot because they're too stupid to understand anything...
@KGX16 ok, he was not an idiot, I am. But as far as popularity is concerned just ask how popular he is in Hiroshima an Nagasaky. I would not like THAT kind of celebrity. A mass murdered. Now thats being popular and smart.
@siquitibum but was it him who dropped them bombs? not generalizing it to all Americans, but it was the Americans who dropped the bomb he didn't want them to be dropped, he came up with a very smart theory and ideas, but there is always one dumb ass who will use smart ideas for evil things, he was just contributing to the science community in a 'way' you're right, because he himself said he made a mistake for recommending for the bombs to be built...
@siquitibum Why is it that ignorant people like you always attribute the Atomic Bomb with Einstein. He is not the man that created it and he is not the man that authorized it's use.
@TOLTECAAZTECA Didn't you mean too endless and not to endless. Please, how dare you comment on the work of one of the greatest physicists of all time when you cannot even spell.
@TOLTECAAZTECA Its oke we do not expect someone who can't even spell to understand any of this. But please, get the fuck out and slam your head against a church/mosque or Zeus House for all I care
@TOLTECAAZTECA you do get what i'm talking about right? and again, please share your genius, show us what refutes the theory of stephen hawking, or are you just a troll? if you are, fail. if not, go on ahead. tell us, show us, do something concrete to back up your statments, if not, then don't speak.
Wow, allot to try and get your head around, huh? Hasn't really answered any questions for me more than just created new questions. Sometimes I think shit would just be easier to understand if everything WAS created by God at some point ;-P I also wish we could know the answers to everything in our own lifetime, that would be nice.
@FronteraFanatic the bible these days is a book that is printed and mass produced, and in several languages no less. How do we know, that even if it was originally written by people that were chosen by god, that absolutely everything in our present-day bible is the sane as what was in the original, which we xont even know for sure existed?
High IQ or not, if Mr Hawking had any brains in his head, he would know nothing can come from nothing all by itself for no reason. He's an educated fool with out a drop of common sense to his credit.
I'm not religious in any way, but my question is why does god have to be a being? What if "God" was an entity, energy or force. What if "god", as an energy or entity functioned as the "outside force" that allowed the initial "big bang" to occur?
@impotenceaura If that is a fact, there is no way your so called "god" would perform the miracles described in the bible. God in your case may merely be a name of the outside force. And nothing we as humans should pray to for help and guidence, because "god" would not listen in that case. But yet, here people are killing eachother over several gods.
The more research Hawking does, the more he theorizes the more he brings everything full circle to G-d, especially since his own proposed big bang require energies that would have to have been present prior to the creation of the so called modern universe. The research at CERn with the particle accelerator also shows that in order for the "god particle" to function external forces must be brought to bear and exerted in order for the "bang" to occur. Who brought these forces to bear and from what
He never said energies were required. The universe can appear as a quantum fluctuation of the vacuum, which is essentially nothing, with no energy. watch?v=NfOL_oGgRVk
The Higgs Boson is not a 'god'-particle. It is merely a very important particle that is elusive because it only appears for short periods of time at high energy. It was called the 'god'-particle because it was so important to particle physics , not because it could control any external forces or anything.
"Religion is the biggest scam ever happened to humanity" and minds of some several generations of humanity were already looted by d most cheapest human beings,(who invented god and those written scriptures), ever existed on earth. so it takes another some centuries for everybody to get back to our original senses. :)
when people r so stupid to believe dat god created world in 6days, and then created adam and even then it all started. were come d dinosaurs and other animals??? I donno too much abt d believes in western countries in Europe. But in India it really sucks. if u can do some nice magic u can be treated like a god, and its one of d businesses to earn money and fame. Once u become famous u can enjoy d luxurious life.
Even if some one proves dat god does not exist, I dont think it will make any difference. bcoz d idea of god has imbibed so deeply into human mind dat people cant live if u take it out of their mind. And majority who feel dat they believe dat they believe in god, donno wat exactly is their meaning of god. they jus do bcoz their parents did so, or some others hav done so. see in India, even some fake guys who claim themselves as gods are treated so.
I have searches for the last 5 years for another reasonable explanation for the beginning of the universe besides christianity and there is not a single esplanation of it.....explain me that athiests
@shopadrop There have been many questions on subjects like germ theory, electricity, and as Hawking stated, the size and shape of the world and the universe as a whole that have only been answered in the last few decades or centuries.
Why are you so vain that you expect all the answers to your questions right now, just because you are asking them? A currently missing answer doesn't mean that any piece of nonsense can be put in the gap and called an answer simply because the truth is unknown.
Study more, and pay attention. No one (credible) has stated that only photons existed at any point. Read more of Hawking's work, and Susskind, and Krauss.
the laws of science do not explain how something can come from nothing and the marriage of both general relativity and quantum theory just proves more that god has created these particles which through the big bang expanded and formed the universe as we know it constantly changing. the steady state theory even describes how matter is created as the universe expands to keep density constant.
@oglow100 I'm pretty sure that there hasn't been a paper written on "steady state universe" since the 60s. Maybe you should just familiarize yourself more with the current physics, how the most possible events tend to appear and the less probable tend to disappear and what the evidence for this phenomena is instead of dismissing it for ideological reasons.
@oglow100 but nobody is claiming that something appeared from nothing. There is a previous state of "things" which may appear to be "nothing" to you because they only exist within ranges of probability. And one day, poof. Most probable happens. :)
@oglow100 "he laws of science do not explain how something can come from nothing and the marriage of both general relativity and quantum theory just proves more that god has created these particles.."
Um, no. Study more, and pay attention next time. Something can come from nothing because nothing = energy sum of zero. From zero energy we have a balance of matter (positive energy) and gravity (negative energy) which exactly cancel each other out in all scenarios.
@mcsdaver "Hawking once said the universe could make its self from nothing. I don't think so. He is just trying too hard."
Your arguments from ignorance and incredulity mean nothing. What is your level of education? Have you studied this subject in depth? or are you just saying "I don't believe." because you yourself can't understand what is really going on?
The laws of science still doe's not explain the trillions of excellration in the bigining. There is no such thing as nothing from nothing. what is the cause of reason? Talking about the laws of science, someone explain to me the 1000,s of miracles recorded in history? Now thats what i call excellration.
@rikky702 It depends on what you consider a miracle, a routine appendectomy would have been considered a miracle a thousand years ago, seeing a comet in the sky in Jesus' time might have been considered a miracle, now science explains both easily. I believe we are still sort of like cavemen barely exploring the wonders of the universe, just to say something is a miracle and that's final is limiting yourself and it prevents you from learning how things really happen.
@DavidsVirtualSelf I dont think so. What he believes is true is not. His theories about the origin of the world are incorrect. No one can determine the end of the world either
@misterjakemczilla Oh, so you have absolutely nothing to argue that point, you'd just rather be a mindless troll and say no to whatever he says. Very compelling argument...let's see here... man with beyond genius IQ...pretty much the smartest man on the planet......verses...random youtube troll who provides no evidence, counter theory, or reason....yyeeeaaahhhh I'm going to go with the first guy, but thanks for playing.
@DavidsVirtualSelf ..? That made no sense whatsoever. Youre an idiot. 1. Im not trolling. 2. He is one of the smartest men just not in the religious region. 3. Youre going on his team I see. I didnt know we were playing a game. I had a grand time I will try again someday and see if I can pass this level.
@misterjakemczilla No, it made sense. It's just that a 3rd grade reading level was required, and you're too busy sounding out the words. Oh, and by the way, your religion doesn't contradict any of this. Had you been in possession of the capacity to think critically, you'd understand that.
@DavidsVirtualSelf You sir, are awesome. I'm so tired of talking to people like misterjakemczilla who don't understand or have the thought capacity to figure out they don't need to fear science!
@Lowlsnail Haha, why thanks! And yeah, science doesn't need to erode anything fundamental to anyone's beliefs. After all, Mendel got many aspects of genetics wrong. But was he fundamentally wrong about his principles? Of course not. You just have to adjust some details for current the understanding of things. We do this with scientific theory all the time, so why not do it with other things as well? The evolution of an idea is a wonderful thing!!
@misterjakemczilla Davids argument does make sense. To start off your with "you're an idiot" then giving three useless connotations, just shows the weakness in what you are trying to say. You also acknowledge that Hawking is a genius, but does not have his "religious" facts straight? Please, justify what that even means.
@MrAlec09 What's funny is I'd be willing to bet you misterjakemczilla only knows of his own religion. Hawking can probably quote the creation accounts of several because our origin is simply what he studies. Most people like misterjakemczilla have never looked at another belief besides their own...
@misterjakemczilla 1) If you're going to accuse others of being idiots, please learn how to properly spell first. 2) Religion and facts are mutually exclusive; religion cannot survive in a world where people are properly educated about the facts of the natural world. It thrives on the fear and ignorance of human beings.
@GluttonForSex Ok thanks for the advice but I dont see a word that I misspelled. Technically I guess im not talking about religion since its Christianity but you can just stay out of this. Look it up and learn about it first before you post something random talking about it. Much appreciated
@GluttonForSex you are totally wrong there is no proof against the existence of god that can be comprehended the only reason for atheism, i believe, is just to be free from duties. Something simply cannot come from something if u can explain correctly how an entire universe was made from nothing then i will not believe in creation but it is just impossible to find anything against it. All creatures are far too complex to even have come from nothing
Your arguments from incredulity and ignorance are unconvincing. Try this thought experiment: take any definition of "god" and see how they all contain either a non-existence clause or at least an implication of one.
I am quite the novice when it comes to science and the universe, but I enjoy listening to these theories and presentations. But I have a question about how the universe began. The universe expands at an ever increasing rate, but how his this possible while there can't be anything faster then the speed of light?
@kippetjetoktok Because you can increase something forever without hitting a specified goal. If you remember algebra, there is a curve on a graph called an asymptote. What this does, is go ever increasingly to x or y without ever touching it. To test this, divide any number by another number and keep dividing. You'll always have a new number that never hits zero. And if you divide by zero, you get an undefined answer, as to divide something by nothing is to leave it alone.
Good stuff, but I think this i a bit out of date now, in a lecture of Lawrance Krauss (A Universe From Nothing) he states that we live in a flat universe that will expend forever at an ever increasing rate. Just saying, remember, science is a self-correcting ever improving and updating system :)
It's so ironic and terrible how his body is degrading in such a way that he can still think perfectly well, but is inhibited from being able to communicate those ideas to the extent and volume that he would surely like to be able to. Go Stephen for being awesome in spite of adversity!
I believe that the universe is collapsing again, even as we speak.
"Why are we here?" is a question I have asked myself many times throughout my life. Or more precisely: Why am "I" here, in this time and place; in these uncertain times? Why did God decide to place my soul in this body instead of in somebody who lived... say... 100 years ago... 200 years ago... or even in the time of the dinosaurs... maybe even AS a dinosaur?
These are interesting questions I've often asked myself. Why do you think a belief in God answers them though? It doesn't seem to answer anything in my mind, it seems more of an excuse to stop asking questions.
No need to fight friends, respectable debate is always good, but bigotry from both sides is always just funny. Einstein had some good insight about the future of religion (the symbiosis of science and religion). His ideas/predictions seem to be at least somewhat plausible...
@ SpectreOfNorway I agree with your statement about nothing good coming out of religion. Thousands of people have died in wars over differences of religious beliefs...and for what purpose? No one religion is king of them all. No one religion has brought peace to a civilization.
So they are close to understanding the origins of the universe but they still haven't figured out mentally generated artificial voice (with inflection and what not)? dude is running Microsoft Sam is an insult
whatever are questions about the universe going to do for us now i don't know. who cares... since these questions cannot begin to answer deep philosophical or religious conclusions.
Truely a awsome and incrediblely brilliant mind !! I could listen to that computer voice for endless hours more !! We need more minds like Dr. Stephen Hawking ! That us mere human are starting to understand our Universe and Multi-universe beyond !!!
@TheCompleteFailure, if in your mind, death is the only certainty, then that would imply that birth must also be a certainty. Now you put that in terms of the universe, for instant if a black hole were to occur and 'kill' the universe, the it must first have been 'born'.
@TheCompleteFaliure Considering that something needs to be alive before it can die, or exist before it can cease to exist, your claim inevitably implies that Life and existence are therefore certainties as well. This contradicts your claim.
@music2012 if man is a creature of thought, and ALS doesn't impinge that ability, there's no surprise for me. His perseverance is truly remarkable nonetheless.
@MegaYada Science itself is not necessarily a product of humans, but the understanding of science, is only known to be comprehended by humans. As far as religion... "Not one has answered anything, as much as it has suggested to stop the pursuit of knowledge, because "we already have it figured out." Ya feel me?
@stepupstupendous I still feel we need ALL dimensions to reach the truth. Believe me, I think, read and try to understand our existance from ALL aspects
@MegaYada There is no observational handle on any god or gods. By your logic, we should also be "open" to including matters like the easter bunny, unicorns, ogres and faeries in our search for the truth.
Divine origin can be considered if there is evidence for it. Religion has had thousands of years to make its case, and it has produced literally 0 such evidence.
Some would say that this is evidence all in itself which is not very favorable to religion. To put it very mildly.
Neither has science conclusively proven that Religion's assertions are false. All they have put forth are theories. Which are not fact, but rather based on fact and interpretations. Don't tell me its not. Put 6 scientists in seperate rooms, and I can almost guarantee you they will come up with different findings on the same experiment. So the question is which interpretation is true? Theories are not Scientific laws. They can be broken and disproven.
@clykdd The list of religious assertions proven false is endless at this point. Thunder is not at all the wrath of a divine being, the world is not at all 6000 years old, and life was not at all placed on this world in a finished state, it slowly evolved. These aren't trivial details--they each show the "holy books" have the same link to reality as Harry Potter does.
The sun doesn't come from Ra. Lightning doesn't come from Zeus. The universe doesn't come from Yahweh/Allah. Welcome to 2010.
But science has never proven nor disproven the existence of divine beings or God. And Yahweh is the God of the Christians and Jews that exists in three person in the same Being, otherwise known as a triunion. Allah is Islamic and does not exist in three persons. And whose to say that it has not microevolved? And even if God created the universe, wouldn't you think it would say the world would be older than lets say 7 days?
@clykdd You're right, science has NEVER disproved the existence of a divine being. On the other side of this coin, though, religion has NEVER proven the existence of a divine being. There is no way to test the theory that any given religion puts forward, to it's positive or contrary. It literally comes down to a matter of faith, are you going to believe in something you can't possibly observe, or are you going to believe in something that is observable and ultimately answerable. It's up to you.
Harry Potter is far different from religions. So your Non Sequitor there really weakens your assertions. And wouldn't Divine Being(s) be able to manipulate the forces of the world since He(They) created the world and its laws? Hawking is a Theoretical Astrophysicist. Since that is all an astrophysicist can do, theorize according to observations from Earth and from mathematical problems and simulations. They can not do an experiment on any of their laws but simulations.
Simulations are not reality. They attempt to copy and do the best they can with it, but they are limited in the amount of variables that they can control/add/remove. Theories that come from these lack real-world scientific bases and should be placed on a lower field than the theory of evolution. Theories can be disproven unlike Laws. And The Laws of Theromodynamics imply that our universe should not exist if it was created through the realms of science.
One cannot assume that scientific laws pick and choose when they are laws, else they would be false. They have always existed. The only reactions not bound by Thermodynamics are Nuclear ones, but since the elements created through this slowly iradiate, one can assume that they played little to no role in the universe. The Laws of Thermodynamics imply a Omnipotent Being (call it what you will) created the universe. Because that Being would be stronger than the laws.
@clykdd The laws of Thermodynamics in no way or fashion imply the existence of God.
All scientific laws, including Thermodynamics, relativity, and quantum theory, have issues when dealing with Planck time, temperature, and size. Assuming the singularity that begun the universe contained all matter and energy in the universe, it must automatically be at maximum temperature, minimum size, and will only exhibit other features at minimal time. Thermodynamics may change when dealing with all matter.
@clykdd You don't know that. Laws are only theories that have been proven in the observable universe. You can't say that it applied at the big bang as you have no idea what the nature of a universe-encompassing singularity exactly is, can you?
Then where did those Laws come from? Were they always set in stone (as you deny)? Or did something create them? You're begging the question in other words.
From what little I've read from your comments, it is you who is "begging the question"."Begging the question" means to present as true a premise that requires proof. Namely, the Divine Being.
@clykdd It's a fact that life is the universe's method for observing and understanding itself and that is closer to an answer to "why" than any philospher has discovered.
One might argue that cosmology falls under Metaphysics, a philosophical ideal. And yet then, one might argue science is philosophy in practice. I would argue that science falls under the realms of Naturalism (everything is governed by natural laws for a brief definition)
@clykdd Uhm, i thought quantum theory prooved otherwise, when you split quarks from one another, theoretically you would get more quarks. how does this fit into 'Energy is niether created nor destroyed'.
Also what about random quantum fluctuations? causing matter (thus energy) to come to existance only to disappear.
vast emptyness its so depressing.... its better to belive in in god and live in blissfull ignorance than to go mad knowing that the universe will end in a cold dark and lonely place.
You can have both, you can believe in God and know that the universe will not end the way you think but there will be a new beginning, please watch my video "Richard Dawkins and Lawrence Krauss Vs. Fairies".
@Sonicku I agree with that sometimes, but there's only so many words I can use to express my upbeat attitude towards life, but it doesn't scare me to seek for answers, knowing that none yet, have pointed to any supernatural diety. I am my own god, and I have a lot of faith in myself.
He makes text using his cheek muscles. That gets sensed and that tells the computer what to do. It takes an incredibly long time to type messages. So he must prepare them beforehand. If he had to answer on the spot, the crowd would be sitting there for hours.
Idiot. If the universe is one of these bubbles then what universe do these bubbles exist in and how then did that unoverse begin? lol lol lol :-D what a retard. lol
I'm not religous i believe we are here by chance. but think some people can't get over that they dont have a reason for existing that they were concevied only by chance, so in one way religon is good because some people need faith they need to think they have always had a purpose. But believe that we should be happy that we were born against all odds (which were definatly against us) and find our own Raison d'être (reasn for being) what ever it is.
@SpectreOfNorway No, silly man, plenty of good has come from religion, thousands of lives have been saved by people backed by their strong religious convictions. I don't even believe in god but "he" has helped plenty of people. Come to think of it, far more bad than good... But.. What was I talking about?
@RuneJoker The only thing to add to that is "at what costs"...I'm sure you recall Hitler, Pol Pot, David Koresh & Jim Jones. All religious guys who fooled gullibles to mass murder. Not pretty.
Hitler was not a religious "guy" as you call him. He has a master of rhetoric. Much like everyone that you pointed out. Just because you claim religion does not mean you are "reiligious" they could merely be using it as an excuse or justification.
@clykdd He was...that's 1 reason how he simply fooled the people (voters) of Poland (to get in power). I think it was by 98% or something. Funny, that is just like politicians do it today eh. Talking the talk, but not walking the walk. HMMM
Wouldn't it be lovely if religious people (atheists included) would concentrate more on following their own religion (moral ethics blablabla etc.) instead of imposing beliefs onto others as if they have found the truth?
The second you are preassumptious about anything you cannot learn any more for you are denying the very idea tho change your views on your perceived world.

hey i just came up with a new theory while i was high. its called the 2bit theory. there is either a positive or a negative and that is the law of everything that exists / existed / will exist. Examples : it either exists or it doesn't exist / either positive and negative matter (dark matter) and even complex things like good and evil. if u look around everything in the world has 2 sides. and then multiple things other than + and - form from combining + - in different patterns like a computer

The more research Hawking does, the more he theorizes the more he brings everything full circle to G-d, especially since his own proposed big bang require energies that would have to have been present prior to the creation of the so called modern universe. The research at CERn with the particle accelerator also shows that in order for the "god particle" to function external forces must be brought to bear and exerted in order for the "bang" to occur.

The Higgs Boson is not a 'god'-particle. It is merely a very important particle that is elusive because it only appears for short periods of time at high energy. It was called the 'god'-particle because it was so important to particle physics , not because it could control any external forces or anything.

the laws of science do not explain how something can come from nothing and the marriage of both general relativity and quantum theory just proves more that god has created these particles which through the big bang expanded and formed the universe as we know it constantly changing. the steady state theory even describes how matter is created as the universe expands to keep density constant.

@kippetjetoktok Because you can increase something forever without hitting a specified goal. If you remember algebra, there is a curve on a graph called an asymptote. What this does, is go ever increasingly to x or y without ever touching it. To test this, divide any number by another number and keep dividing. You'll always have a new number that never hits zero. And if you divide by zero, you get an undefined answer, as to divide something by nothing is to leave it alone.

Simulations are not reality. They attempt to copy and do the best they can with it, but they are limited in the amount of variables that they can control/add/remove. Theories that come from these lack real-world scientific bases and should be placed on a lower field than the theory of evolution. Theories can be disproven unlike Laws. And The Laws of Theromodynamics imply that our universe should not exist if it was created through the realms of science.
clykdd 1 year ago
@GluttonForSex
One cannot assume that scientific laws pick and choose when they are laws, else they would be false. They have always existed. The only reactions not bound by Thermodynamics are Nuclear ones, but since the elements created through this slowly iradiate, one can assume that they played little to no role in the universe. The Laws of Thermodynamics imply a Omnipotent Being (call it what you will) created the universe. Because that Being would be stronger than the laws.
clykdd 1 year ago
@clykdd The laws of Thermodynamics in no way or fashion imply the existence of God.
All scientific laws, including Thermodynamics, relativity, and quantum theory, have issues when dealing with Planck time, temperature, and size. Assuming the singularity that begun the universe contained all matter and energy in the universe, it must automatically be at maximum temperature, minimum size, and will only exhibit other features at minimal time. Thermodynamics may change when dealing with all matter.

Everything on this video is begging the question. Why? Because our whole society is based on philosophy. And philosophy is not fact.

@clykdd It's a fact that life is the universe's method for observing and understanding itself and that is closer to an answer to "why" than any philospher has discovered.

One might argue that cosmology falls under Metaphysics, a philosophical ideal. And yet then, one might argue science is philosophy in practice. I would argue that science falls under the realms of Naturalism (everything is governed by natural laws for a brief definition)

@clykdd Science is indeed a philosophy and it is also useful ;)

@clykdd I'll second that.

@clykdd Uhm, i thought quantum theory prooved otherwise, when you split quarks from one another, theoretically you would get more quarks. how does this fit into 'Energy is niether created nor destroyed'.
Also what about random quantum fluctuations? causing matter (thus energy) to come to existance only to disappear.

@clykdd By the way, i'm a atheist, i'm simply confused about your statement about energy.

vast emptyness its so depressing.... its better to belive in in god and live in blissfull ignorance than to go mad knowing that the universe will end in a cold dark and lonely place.

You can have both, you can believe in God and know that the universe will not end the way you think but there will be a new beginning, please watch my video "Richard Dawkins and Lawrence Krauss Vs. Fairies".

@Sonicku I agree with that sometimes, but there's only so many words I can use to express my upbeat attitude towards life, but it doesn't scare me to seek for answers, knowing that none yet, have pointed to any supernatural diety. I am my own god, and I have a lot of faith in myself.

He makes text using his cheek muscles. That gets sensed and that tells the computer what to do. It takes an incredibly long time to type messages. So he must prepare them beforehand. If he had to answer on the spot, the crowd would be sitting there for hours.

I'm not religous i believe we are here by chance. but think some people can't get over that they dont have a reason for existing that they were concevied only by chance, so in one way religon is good because some people need faith they need to think they have always had a purpose. But believe that we should be happy that we were born against all odds (which were definatly against us) and find our own Raison d'être (reasn for being) what ever it is.

@SpectreOfNorway No, silly man, plenty of good has come from religion, thousands of lives have been saved by people backed by their strong religious convictions. I don't even believe in god but "he" has helped plenty of people. Come to think of it, far more bad than good... But.. What was I talking about?

@RuneJoker The only thing to add to that is "at what costs"...I'm sure you recall Hitler, Pol Pot, David Koresh & Jim Jones. All religious guys who fooled gullibles to mass murder. Not pretty.

@davemelnick
Hitler was not a religious "guy" as you call him. He has a master of rhetoric. Much like everyone that you pointed out. Just because you claim religion does not mean you are "reiligious" they could merely be using it as an excuse or justification.

@clykdd He was...that's 1 reason how he simply fooled the people (voters) of Poland (to get in power). I think it was by 98% or something. Funny, that is just like politicians do it today eh. Talking the talk, but not walking the walk. HMMM
