Now matter how hard Collins tries to scientifically proove that a listening, understanding, and caring god exists, it will always go back to faith. Religion and the idea of god gets no more complicated than that. How is that so hard to understand?

How about we stop all this nonsense about a "natural world" and a "spiritual world" and just talk about "the world." Rephrase Collins' words at 9:00 under those terms and you get: "Science is THE WAY to search for truth about THE WORLD." Period. As far as a "spiritual world" is concerned, who has access to such things? And those who have claimed they have access, how? And why no one else? Faith is of no merit---it's just believing to believe to believe....

When we consider that evolution led to the development of mammals, then to the ancestors of apes, then to humans, and humans developed the ability to utilize language, we can conclude that evolution INDEED produced morality, for it is through language that we are able to discuss what one "should" or "should not" do. That example of the "drowning enemy" appeals to moral instincts that are habituated into people through upbringing.

@5tonyvvvv God always existed, IMPOSSIBILE! "Who" set this into motion? Is an absurd question, because you are supposing the answer to the universe is a "who".
"Who" just made the last bolt of lightening? Thor? God?
"Who" made a flower open up yesterday morning?
These are silly questions, and you are asking them, because you have an answer in mind. Your appeal to credulity (the universe is SOOO amazing it PROVES god), is another falicy.
You clearly have no idea.

@12Ominous How does any of that equate to the bible being non-fiction? Answer? IT DOESN'T. I was explaining to 5stonyvvvv about his/her arguements to authority and ignorance. A concept they clearly did not understand.

@Futureplanet Religious belief is intuitive, he is not making an argument at all. His rationale? He had an epiphany in the woods, that's not a rationale. If you think all that there is to humans is logic and reason, I'm sorry to say that you're incorrect. Biochemistry is just another paradigm of understanding, he does not need the authority of biochemistry to make a logical conclusion. Even Hawkins has conceded that there is something outside of the Universe that is pumping gravity into it.

@Futureplanet Keep rambling! Its takes Faith on both sides MORON!!

Where Collins gets it wrong is in claiming that the "hunger for something outside of ourselves" is a "universal" thing. He may speak for himself, but examples of people without that "hunger" do exist -- myself among them. Calling it "universal" is a trick many ideologues like C.S. Lewis love playing. "See? It's universal! So if you don't feel it, you're pushing it away!" No.
