    The voice box was built with an American accent, but I have no idea why. At any rate, he is in fact British, and is Professor of Physics at the University of Cambridge in England.

    "I live in Dublin, Baile Átha Cliath Ireland and 44 years old"

    Let me guess you make bombs for a living?

    Maybe I should now get your home address and see if you are one of the terrorists that is wanted for criminal activities?

    The suburb isn't that large

    No matter how much scientific knowledge you may gain, still all human knowledge will remain incomplete. More we get knowledge more new wonders of life come into light. Science is good and I do study science. More I understand our universe scientifically more my Faith in GOD increase. Because I am not Homosexual or gay marriage supporter. Science and Faith have nothing to do with each other. Atheists don't like GOD because He demands pure life and judge Homosexual. Be a pure man or woman first.

    It's not about faith. It's about scientific facts. Get off your cave and go study. Study 'till your eyes are red, then do it again- and again, and again.

    As usual, the comments degenerate into a shouting match. I just want to tell ConversationWithA that I really like your well-made and thoughtful videos, you are making a real contribution to this crucial human conversation about religion. Thanks!

    Sometimes, God saves people from Satanic societies. The saved man always wants to warn people about what he knows (Satan made up the theory of evolution, the Bible is the truth, they are preparing the one world government for the arrival of the antichrist, etc.) Sometimes they are killed off, but this only proves they are speaking the truth. It is more effective to put cocaine in their hotel rooms. This discredits them and lands them in jail... think about that when you read 0:15.

    Yeah, I agree skyeo123. That's a fairly ignorant statement, that all you have to do is "believe" to understand evolution. That's mighty convenient because of all the believing done in the past 2K years, evolution wasn't understood (or fully realized) until studied... through education.

    You're on your computer passing along ignorance on the backs of those with education like the atheist Bill Gates.
