Existence makes no sense

0) Yes, rule "zero", as that's how it's treated by everyone. That fact is the reason I made this video, to prove a point: When the foundation of your theory, no matter how repeatable and measurable it may be in the lab, is simply a placeholder for "I don't know", then perhaps you should consider the larger picture: You're probably wrong somewhere... and considering it's at the start of the line, it's probably something big.

1) The purpose of this video is not to attack or defend any religion, nor any scientific theory. It is to attack people who treat speculation as fact, willfully ignore reality, claim false knowledge, and use it as a tool to forge society. It is to make a point about existence, remind people what the scientific process really is, as well as promote debate about intelligent design as an equally viable, and also (by its nature) equally absurd theory.

2) The "God" tile is used for its universal recognizability to keep things simple. It represents "A" or "The" creator or driving force behind "intelligent design". It does not represent any one religion, or religion at all for that matter. It represents an intelligent designer, be it biological, physical yet non-biological, spiritual, extra/multi-dimensional, etc. For all intents and purposes, I am treating it as a "natural" part of "nature". Of course, in one of the combinations, it represents a fictional human manifestation.

3) The "Nothing (?)" tile does not literally represent "nothing". It is more of a kick in the nuts. Once again, it is to keep things simple. It represents whatever it is you want to put there, provided you explain it scientifically / rationally / philosophically, including its origins. This tile does not mean I subscribe to the literal physical existence of "nothing". It is, however, the foundation of your theory... so make it good.

4) The "arrow" tiles represent all transitional / creational processes, for the sake of simplicity. These need to be briefly explained along with the main tiles.

5) The "galaxy" tile represents the creation and / or expansion of matter and / or the universe, or more simply, existence itself. Whichever you choose. It is simply a starting point from "nothing".

6) The "bacterial" tile represents the the beginnings of life, from "primordial soup" right up to single cell, and primitive multicellular life... or whatever processes you feel should go there, if any.

7) The "human evolutionary" tile represents complex multicellular evolution as a whole, not just mankind. It may also represent simply "man" without evolution if you subscribe to that, in which case you can dismiss the previous tile, or just consider them purely parallel, or a combination of both.

8) I can think of several more plausible combinations for these tiles, yet for the sake of simplicity (and the fact that they already rely on logic used in one of the existing combinations) I left them out. My goal is to promote debate, not lose people in details.

9) While my channel is largely political, this video is not intended to be. I will not be making a single political point in regards to this, unless it is a purely factual party association. That will only happen over the course of debate, and only in direct response to a comment. I will not be injecting politics into this debate myself.

10) NOBODY will be censored. NOBODY will be blocked. Say what you wish. Be as vicious as you want. You will not be blocked, unless your attacks leave the boundaries of this video and end up on my main channel. I like to keep things neat and tidy there. If you want to debate my videos, do it on my videos. My channel is for random / miscellaneous comments.

All 3 options are absolutely wrong, because time does not exist, time is just an illusion.

There is no such thing as causality or a beginning.

Everything exists all at once timelessly, that's why you exist "right now" too and you can not make yourself non-existent.

@Atlantean24

Cute, but it doesn't explain existence. If there's no such thing as causality or a beginning, then a much simpler explanation would be for there to be nothing.

You're not enlightening anyone... just making excuses. But that's exactly the point of this video. :)

[amarmirza08]

Oh and to respond to your title. Very little makes sense when you are uninformed.

[N37BU6]

@amarmirza08

Wow, look! Another football fan / physicist feigning knowledge through the use of vagary and indifference.

I'd love to hear this "information" you have. Me and every other human on earth. Because last I checked, all anyone had was unproven, contradictory, paradoxical theories. But not you... no. You have information!

Don't keep it all to yourself. Enlighten the rest of mankind!

[kennyvsspenny24]

A classic example of pure ignorance.

[N37BU6]

@kennyvsspenny24

Oh, do tell... educate me along with every other human on the planet. Tell us "how it is".

And while you're at it, publish a paper. Don't keep the knowledge to yourself.

I'd go for answer 3 if 'God' may also be described as IBM, or Intel, or the next cool thing we come up with. (It better be cool if we will allow it to dictate our lives)

And besides that: There was no 'nothing' before the big bang. Because there were no things at all the word 'nothing' in itself couldn't have any meaning. There is probably also not a 'before' because time as we now experience it didn't exist either. I know, it blows your mind. And I'm not even properly educated to explain why...

[Atlantean24]

@N37BU6

There is a simple explanation:

"There is nothing" is one possibility

"There is something" is infinite possibility

infinite > one

[amarmirza08]

@N37BU6 haha, you have said that same thing to everyone here. we understand a good amount about the world around us, enough to know that choice C is the best. We have the CMB, galaxies redshift, and the physics to support a big bang. We have images from the hubble ultra deep field and others showing the development of the cosmos. We have sequenced thousands of species to understand the evolution of life. we have written records to show how humans made religions.... that isn't new information

[amarmirza08]

A/B have the same mistake. Gods, myths, the supernatural, ghosts, Jedi, and all the spooky stuff is man-made. So, by process of elimination, C is correct.

[amarmirza08]

@N37BU6 Absolutely not. Intelligent design was a term created to counter evolution. Just because some religious people understand evolution doesn't change that fact.
