@chessdawgz Today, 40 years would be worthy of heavy scrutiny. In Ancient History 40 years is an incredibly short time span to have in relation to the events. Very few events from ancient history were recorded in such a short time.

9:32 Earlier D'Souza quotes Hawking, but what he's calling a non-explanation is what Hawking claims.

very dishonest arguments from Loftus. He says D'souza is charming but dead wrong but offers no logical evidence for it. And btw, as almost all physicists would tell you, it's probably the big bang which caused the universe to come into existence....quantum tunnelling is NOT the explanation as of today. tunnelling is a difficult concept to grasp even by university students let alone the mainstream. Im dissapointed that this emotional fool even has an audience. Look up Hitchens instead.

@2nDoppelganger What are you talking about? If you think people believed the Earth was flat, read Jeffrey Burton Russell's book "Inventing the Flat Earth".

Wonderful.... D'Souza thinks he knows better than physicists now.

Loftus is right... but he is a lousy debater

[stevehauk]

I think D'souza was foolish in that he didn't put Loftus on the spot biblically with his false assertions, like Jesus was ALL God plus man. That is a trinitarian perspective not a biblical one and since Loftus is allegedly a bible scholar I would've held his ass to proving it biblically because he can't.

"99% of us believe that the earth is flat. Why should we believe this guy is right when he says the earth is round?"

People, learn from history.
