Oh man... I am loving this. Neil is going on an hour long anti-creationist screed. He is really sticking it to you religious nut cases! Go Neil!

That's kyle orton sleeping.
Even better than the original so far.
Looks like a got.
Thanks!
13.8 billion years old.
"With at least 200 billion galaxies out there (and possibly even more), we’re very likely talking about a Universe filled with around 1024 planets, or, for those of you who like it written out, around 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 planets in our observable Universe."
Only 1 has life that decided to "evolve". All this show does is reaffirm my belief in God.
Great show.
How do you know it's the only one?
I don't, but so far as of today, it is.
I am right, there is no life anywhere else in our Universe. Spin it however you like, but as of today, life on other planets does not exist.
was pretty awesome.
I'm sure you're going to spin this in some way to support the "evidence" of a god, but you would be wrong.
The sheer number of planets, not only in our own galaxy, but the many billions of observable galaxies, suggest there HAS to be life out there besides earth. May we ever observe it? that could be debated. The distances are, literally, astronomical... But to think we are the only sentient species in the entire universe who have cognitive abilities is astronomically asinine given the size of the observable universe.
Only 1? You're prepared to say definitively that there is only one... and that's based on the fact that we've never stepped foot on another planet and only recently sent a probe to another?
As of today? You need to insert a very big qualifier in that statement "as of today... that we know of"; and that's considering we don't know much.
Do you believe in God or a Creator?
If you don't, why not? You believe in life elsewhere in our Universe so how can you say God does not exist?
That's why you have to believe in Islam..There are other earths in the universe and Allah scattered life all over the universe.
Moslems believe that Earth is not a unique planet but rather God created several planets like Earth throughout the universe:
(Quran 65.12) Allah is the one who created seven heavens and from Earth like them (of corresponding type); [Allah’s] command descends among them (heavens and earths) so that you may know that Allah is capable of anything and that Allah knows everything.
In Islam, Earth is not a unique planet. Other planets like Earth do exist throughout the universe. Actually the Quran says that other planets also have land animals:
(Quran 42.29) And from His signs He created the heavens and the Earth; and the land animals that He scattered in BOTH of them (heavens and Earth); And He is capable of gathering them (in one place) if He wishes.
We can't say that definitely... we can say though that there is no direct evidence that God exists though.
How so? Do you know how big the universe is? How do we know that the evidence isn't out there? If you believe that life exist elsewhere in the universe then you can not rule out the possibility of a creator.
So you're saying the possibility of a Creator is very real? That's what it sounds like to me.
Yeah, I think most people don't have any idea how huge our universe is and how much space there is between things. I mean Andromeda, which we're in free fall towards right now and which is the closest large galaxy looks tiny naked eye if you find it in the night sky (and you have to know EXACTLY where to look), and it is significantly bigger and brighter than the Milky Way (though the extent of the galaxy is 6 full moons width from our vantage point if you have really sensitive equipment taking long exposures). That speck of light we see from this extremely close galaxy took 2.5 million years to reach us. I mean you go outside and look in the sky and most of what you see is only a few thousand light years away. Unless you're in the Southern Hemisphere, every single naked eye object you see other than Andromeda is in our galaxy. And if you're in the South, it's everything but the Magellanic Clouds.
Not that I really comprehend the size of the universe either. How can one possibly comprehend the size of a bubble, what, 60 billion light years in diameter?
I believe that there is likely life on other planets -- not that there is with 100% certainty. That's based on the fact that the right conditions for life exist on this planet, and because there are almost certainly planets with similar conditions out in the universe, it therefore seems reasonable to conclude that there is likely life elsewhere.
There is no direct and irrefutable evidence of God on earth and no reason to believe we would find evidence of God if we looked elsewhere. That's the difference between our reasoning.
Great stuff, enjoyed it.
I'm gonna catch it with my 9 year old.
