He's right Allah created the universe, wait, we are young as a species, we don't have all the answers, so we have to go by a book written 2 thousand years ago that cannot be proven as the true wort of god? Can we just except we just don't know yet? But science is moving in the right direction but religion is stagnant

This is the problem. Christians like this guy want to live by a doctrine with all the answers. The fact is, these are all questions of physics. Physics is a science that tries to figure out the answers to the questions that you claim to all ready know because god put it in your brain.

perhaps the number of different possible cycles for the universe is finite, and the universe cycles though every possiblitiy forever without a beginning or end.

The universe came into existence.

Really?

At what exact moment in time did this happen?

Hmmm. hang on, but without the universe nothing existed 'in time'.

So there can't have EVER been a time when the universe didn't exist.

Funny how supposedly smart people like Mr Slick conveniently leave this bit out.

I was hoping for actually relevant comments. Seems like everyone here is more concerned with proving everyone wrong, rather than proving their standpoint right. Awesome video. Appreciate CARM a lot.

Why is it important why we're here?

@wittymcwitterson Not at all, I AM A JEW (lol)!!!. Well not really, it's just his logics is so poor it's not worth my time. And you say there is no evidence for evolution, c'mmon how could i take you seriously.

And besides someone who believes in creation myths talking about faith?. The claim that faith is needed to be an atheist itself requires a LOT of faith. Atheism is the lack of religious faith, i couldn't possibly believe in the miracles of Jesus or Mohammed as an atheist,

@musiclover9361 What does un-Christian even mean? I imagine that someone told you to go cry a river and it hurt your little feelings. Do you mean to tell me that if they don't indulge you every time you want to start a squabble on their website and give you center stage that they do not want to reach the lost? You probably grew up receiving participation trophies and you were given the impression that you are special. They've already dealt w/ all your brilliant arguments on a web page I'm sure.

@victorseay Not to mention the problem of explaining where all the necessary ingredients came from in the first place.
