Great show this week Seth! with two excellent guests and good callers, I can't wait to play it again.

Behavioral Psychology has long since replaced both religion, and philosophy. Only patient, and sober science can explain why humans invent gods, and rule books for moral behavior. One thing is for sure: Humanity is sovereign. WE determine our future. We will redesign our own biology, and the future world we live in. We can create, and recreate systems that serve us in so many ways. Science will continue to shape us, redesign us, and improve us both physically, and mentally. >IA< has already multiplied out ability to process huge amounts of vital data. Life will only get easier, and better, with less pain, and and more individual freedom.
I just finished this book and it is excellent. Not only is it informative, but it is highly entertaining. I learned a lot and laughed my a** off. If this was a review, I would give it 5 out of 5 stars.
LMAO!!! Our cat was in the house but we couldn't find him... we heard him, but had no idea where he was. We were flipping beds and looking in every room in the house. My wife even started crying saying maybe the devil took him... at that point I lost it and started laughing my ass off! He had managed to open the bottom drawer on my wife's chest of drawers, climb in and I guess the drawer closed on him.
34:56 If you listen to the podcast, you can get the expression that the USA is a theocracy like Iran. Teachers afraid to teach science in science classes. In Europe that kind of theocratic regime is unheard of. Maybe in some religious schools, but not in public schools.
After a millennia or two of having religion decreed for everyone by Monarchs, the foundation for colonization was allegedly to escape being forced to believe another way. So, you can't REALLY say It's all on us. Our European ancestors left European religious persecution only to turn around and establish - or attempt to - the same thing, here. How ironic.
The statue of Darwin Moses used in the video image ought to be a real fucking statue. I would purchase one in a heartbeat. SOMEONE MAKE THIS HAPPEN PLEASE
Hah! I once put my dog out on a cold winter's evening and then went and did something and forgot about her. Then all at once I heard this dog barking like crazy and wondered who's dog was barking. Ooops! Evolving Out of Eden will be my next book purchase.
I recently wanted to charge up my wireless beard trimmer, so I plugged the proper end into the trimmer, and couldn't figure out why the L.E.D. wasn't coming on to indicate it was charging. I tried pulling the plug out of the trimmer and plugging it back in, still no light. As I was trying to figure out what was wrong and looked down beside me, I hadn't plugged the other end of the cord into the wall. That's why it wasn't charging! I face-palmed and just had to laugh...
Oh man you made me feel so much better knowing I wasn't the only person to do the car key thing :) The look of concern on my girlfriends face is forever itched into my memory.

The worst stupid I ever demonstrated...sitting in my car at a stop light, car idling...digging through my purse...looking for my car keys. Yup. True story. NOBODY does stupid like I do stupid!

Darwin and Wallace 'killed' the concept of God. But then, so many had already put Thor, Zeus, Apollo, Ra, etc on the myth shelf. I cannot understand how so many can still be delusional with our current understanding of Nature.
Dr. Bob Price is a very respectable person! I got a taste of his philosophy on discussion involving him, hovind, Dave Silverman, Sye Ten Bruggencate, as well as a couple others. It was well worth the 2+ hrs.
Wow... Hovind and Sye Ten... I'm not so sure I can deal with that double dose of ignorance just to listen to the good stuff from Price and Silverman. They would have to spend the first hour just explaining to Sye Ten that he isn't 100% correct just because he "believes" he is.
Why do so many other atheists get so hung up on this label? I honestly don't get it. Trying to avoid the term doesn't matter to god-believers. To them, you're still an atheist even if you don't want to use the term. Not using the label just helps to continue the stigma of it. If they're acknowledging their disbelief to themselves and being public about it, how is using the word "atheist" is the one step too far?
"Assume nothing, question everything!", they say in the intro of this channel's videos. I however assume that monsieur Lamarck was right and do not question it.
If you got right with Jesus that coffee thing would have never happened....... Obviously I jest. Great work and I realize I'm checking in like 10 years hence.
I started having doubts about Christianity a few weeks after "getting saved" I was only 16. And yet, I squashed and suppressed those doubts for a total of 16 more years before reason finally won over and I couldn't live a lie anymore. It Happens and it's hard for someone who hasn't been there to understand.
at the beginning of this podcast i wanted to respond with a confirmation..the grey matter has been proven scientifically that it cannot focus 100 % on each task while multitasking ...so Seth focus booy FOCUS on one task at a time 100 % (especially when in the kitchen hehehee ) lol :p cheers ..don't stop your pod casts on that note ok?? lol
All of the anti-evolution/anti-Bang Bang propaganda which has flooded the public school system, is a major reason why my parents choose to put me in private school. They wanted me to learn about how Evolution works, as well as the Big Bang Theory, and the scientific method.. Which I did. In Catholic school. What does it say about a society, when parents have to put their kids into a religious school, just to AVOID religous propaganda?
Romans 9 Paul says that God predetermined who would be saved and who would be damned from the beginning. So the saved would know how loving and merciful God was. You can not be more immoral than that when you knowingly create thinking, feeling people to be tortured forever. And they accuse evolution of being immoral?
I was probably one of the first few people to get my hands on this book. Because I knew that Christianity atleast according to the Apostle Paul (original sin) is totally debunked because of the Theory of Evolution and I wanted someone to go in depth on this topic. Hardly any atheist will know about the flaws in the NT bible that are exposed by evolution.

Actually, from what I understand from what I've read, humans knew the earth was round. Fishermen and sailors watched the stars and knew this.

The human brain is around 80% - 90% water... Coffee is a mild diuretic - personally I can't drink it because it dries me out - so if you maybe drank more water & less coffee, your mental acuity might show a significant uptick.
1.) It's not enough of a diuretic to cause dehydration unless you're already close to being dehydrated in the first place. 2.) Drinking water to be slightly less dehydrated doesn't come close to a CNS stimulant (caffeine) in terms of uptick in mental acuity
***** So how much coffee do you drink, per day? Have you missed the fact that humans evolved drinking WATER, not coffee? Of course our bodies function better by drinking primarily water, rather than trying to obtain most of our body's needs for water from coffee, soft drinks, energy drinks, supposed 'electrolyte' drinks, & so on...

I make it a liter (~34oz) at a time, and that liter gets only ~1.4 oz of *diet* soda syrup. If I drink the entire thing, that's 1 liter of water, 20mg sodium (i.e. electrolytes), 120mg caffeine, and minor amounts of sucralose, flavoring, citric acid... Please find me a single source that would say that 120mg of caffeine would act as enough of a diuretic to counteract the fact that I just drank something that is 96% water... "Of course our bodies function better by drinking primarily water" ROFL. It works even better when you add in the fucking stimulants... Just the fact that you used the phrase "supposed 'electrolyte' drinks" tells me that you have no fucking clue what electrolytes actually are and how important they are to cell function. As a biologist, it's pretty clear to me that you have no idea what the fuck you're talking about. Seriously, do you even think before spouting such easily debunked tripe?
Ahh yes, genetic algorithms... Throw in an algorithm that creates additive trees and feed it some sequenced DNA, a weight matrix and you'll shit bricks if you're a creationist. Another thing is looking at god in the context of overfitting. I don't think it'll be easy to be a creationist engineer after these 3 things.

Rather sad that there can still be any necessity for debate about the 'reality' of evolution.
That said, as always - a great podcast...
