    Good video! I've been interested in this topic for some time so it would be cool to have more scientific experiments on it. Not related to this video, but I'm curious to know your thoughts on servitude and serving others. I hear a lot of people talk about "serving others" being the meaning of our existence and I'm curious to see what other people think of that. Especially someone such as yourself that used to be a Anglican Priest. Might be an interesting video topic. Cheers!

    Im younger than most commenters here, Im 38, and a lot of what you said resonates with me. I like the vast amount of time Im free to do as I please, work on things in my house when I want, ride and work on my motorcycles, etc. I was a late bloomer when it came to dating and didnt have a serious girlfriend till I was 20. It lasted about 5 years but she ended up breaking my heart. Its never been the same since. I dated a few more people but it never lasted for more than 1.5 years. My guess is that I have a personality like yours in that Im not too tolerant of other peoples quirks. I also did not like that so many woman I dated withheld sex as a punishment until I did what they wanted. I do miss the sex and companionship, but I realize that at my age I likely wont ever love someone like I did in my 20s. I may continue dating here and there but I think without the desire for marriage and kids, it will all likely be short lived or not permanent. Thanks for the insight!

    About the bandwagon: The majority of TS reactions (in my feed, at least) are touted as "first time hearing" types of reactions. Those are, indeed, fascinating for swifties but, in your case, you might aim at a different target. Instead of "first time" you could go for deeper/more thoughtful reactions with more philosophical undertones by picking songs that have captured your imagination. You would not be the only person doing that - and probably not the most "qualified" person to do that, from the standpoint of "swiftie experts" - but you would be among the most qualitied from a philosophical perspective. In any case, there is nothing wrong with a bandwagon if, overall, it is one that has a positive impact on the world. I say that Taylor has an overall positive impact on the world, as do most swifties and most pro-Taylor commentators (counterbalancing the Taylor-haters). As for your followers who have no interest in Taylor, they can skip those episodes or, in some cases, you could tie Taylor into a topic that they do care about. Perhaps put Taylor to work explaining/clarifying various ideas you want to explore.

    If intelligent design were true, we would expect to see distinctive evidence of it. What we see instead is the kind of emergent complexity that we would expect from thermodynamics. What we don't see are departures from the expected, such as organized violations of thermodynamic processes. But whether we could necessarily recognize evidence of design is a separate consideration. If EVERYTHING were designed, we'd have no undesigned thing to compare against. In other words, we'd have no distinctive evidence that we could point to. Therefore, in such a case WE WOULD NOT BE JUSTIFIED in inferring that everything was designed. But in fact we seem to be very good at distinguishing evidence of human design from natural processes. And we're also very good at distinguishing structures built by agents from structures which arise from basic chemistry or geology or physics. For example, the uniformity and symmetry of a honeycomb and the uniformity and symmetry of a snowflake appear superficially similar, but closer study reveals artifacts of construction by some agent (bees, but we never have to actually see a bee to make this determination) in the honeycomb, but only simple principles of chemistry and physics in the snowflake. Our ability to reliably make such distinctions and later to confirm them should give us some justifiable confidence in being able to detect other evidence of design in our environment which comes from no identified agent or process. Historically, these have been matters of intense scientific interest. And, while they have all been given a completely natural explanation when investigated, there are probably more to be found which are not yet explained. Nevertheless it would be a fallacious Argument from Ignorance to infer from "we don't know" to "therefore it must have been an intelligent agent."

    If intelligent design was proven to be true, to a degree that no one could dispute it, then that would make intelligent design true. It’s not complicated. It would not prove there was a single entity (God) that designed it, it would just prove that something, or someone, designed it. Religious people would still claim it was God, athiests would accept intelligent design was true, but that they did not know who or what did it. The worrying thing would be that if Evolution was proven to be true, and there was no Creator, religious people would STILL believe in God. Religion only needs them to have FAITH in God. They do not care about no evidence, or even evidence against it, they will believe no matter what.

    God is everything, the universe is everything. There is only one God because there is only one Universe. They are two words for the same exact thing, the debate is whether or not that is a conscious entity or if it is lifeless chaos. Intelligent design DOES exist. Whether or not it was evolved through chaos, the chaos still "designed" these advanced biomechanics. The human neocortex is a bunch of cells working together to create order. The human civilization is a bunch of humans working together to create order. The entire universe is a bunch of particals working together to create order. Is it not possible that if we are able to develop a "free will and consciousness" from the amalgamation of cells, is the universe able to develop its own form of "consciousness" from the amalgamation of thinking lifeforms all with their own conscious brains?
