Richard Feynman on hungry philosophers (or do we see objects or only their light)

@caycug1 I appreciate that you're trying to express your way of thinking, but after dozens posts and pages of bible quotes I don't think that the comments area of this video is the right place to look for converts anymore. Feel free to post a forum link and take the discussion elsewhere.

@caycug1 Life emerges from and adheres strictly to the laws of nature - it has to - yet it culminates in something so much grander than the sum of its parts. This fills me with awe and I require nothing more. It is quite possible to live a sin free and morally just life in our society without req...

@caycug1 You cannot use science to support your point as science does not supply evidence that our universe was created from nothing. Furthermore there is no evidence for design undertaken by anything other than nature itself through an unimaginably long process of evolution. Love is indeed a gre...

@caycug1 I agree that the fun is in the discovering, but I see no need to invoke God to provide the treasure. The universe provides more wonders than we could ever imagine and it is with our own hands and minds that we reveal its secrets. "Once we overcome our fear of being tiny, we find ourselve...

@LNP20 I disagree with your assessment. Whilst it's entirely possible (some would say likely) that we manifest as part of a simulation run by some advanced civilisation, and "cogito ergo sum" may be the only thing we can say for sure about reality, I believe that Feynman's point was that if you ...
