Oxford professor Richard Dawkins presents a series of lectures on life, the universe, and our place in it. With brilliance and clarity, Dawkins unravels an educational gem that will mesmerize young and old alike. Illuminating demonstrations, wildlife, virtual reality, and special guests (including Douglas Adams) all combine to make this collection a timeless classic.
The Royal Institution Christmas Lectures for Children were founded by Michael Faraday in 1825, with himself as the inaugural lecturer. The 1991 lecturer was Richard Dawkins whose five one-hour lectures, originally televised by the BBC, are now available free online, courtesy of The Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science. The entire 5-hour program is also available on a 2-DVD set through our online store. richarddawkins.net/store/index...
The DVD includes subtitles in English, Spanish, French and Polish.

So touching and priceless when Dawkins picked up that baby and talked about life. More poignant is when he said 'after sleeping for 140 million centuries, we've woken up in the universe... before long we shall close our eyes again...'
What if humanity lives on and doesn’t close their eyes again metaphorically of course
@@kennypowers1945We'll eventually change, or go extinct. In 2-5 million years there will no longer be humans around, but hopefully there will be post-humans.
A lot of adults would benefit from these lectures directed at children.
I am an adult, and this is quite sophisticated language and information. I dont think I would have been able to digest all this as a child
30+ years later and this still holds up. A mark of an exceptional educator.
Let have some truth for a change! Dinosaur Revelations of the ICA Stones
Examination of the ICA Stones in Peru revealed their authenticity. Dr. Andres Zhurov a Russian with a PhD in Andean Archaeology from Moscow State University and Don Frazier, a computer technological expert from San Jose California joined the team. Dr. Ricardo Jochamowitz the Director of the Cabrera Museum association agreed to an examination of the ICA Stones. Marcel Rosas of Nazca Peru, a sceptic of the stones also agreed to participate with other skeptics and debunkers. They negotiated a test that all sides felt was fair and reasonable. Each person would randomly select five stones, each with dinosaurs carved on them from the museum and so by the end of the day we had analysed forty stones in total. The skeptics selected any stones they thought were fakes and believers selected stones that they liked for examination. Neutral people could also select stones at random. Dr. Dennis Swift used a portable USB digital microscope used in forensic laboratories and police crime labs. This is a high tech piece of equipment. It magnifies from 10x to 200x. To give an illustration of its power, it magnifies a human hair until it looks like a giant redwood tree. The microscope is connected to a laptop in order to take photographs and digital images which can be compiled on a Camcorder. All the information gained from the ICA Stones was analysed in detail. This microscope proved the authenticity and antiquity of the ICA Stones on the 8th April 2004. All sides agreed that the tests were scientific, accurate and fair, thus there were no skeptics left in the room at the end of the day.
A charge often made by evolutionists is that the Cabrera Collection of stones was carved by rotatory power tools etc. These leave tell -tale signs behind them in the stone, such as contoured grooves, chips, flakes, cracks and pieces of metal, all would be recognize under this forensic microscope, but there were none. These stones are “andesite” in nature and under examination the stones are covered with patina which illustrates age and this when right into all the grooves of the carvings related to the dinosaurs displaying antiquity. This natural forming patina has been found on other Pre-Columbian burial archaeological artifacts. There is an accumulation of patina and varnish from biological sources being produced from algae or bacteria. If these stones had been carved by rotary power tools they would have cut through this ancient patina and it would be evident, for all to see under microscope. Lichen colonies had been identified being found in the carved grooves; that take hundreds of years to grow, particularly in the Nazca desert burial chambers. Laboratory tests proved that these Lichen colonies belonged to the Xanthoparnelia variety. These stones alone prove that dinosaurs were contemporary with humans only a few thousand years ago and that they did not die out 65 million years ago. Forget about radio metric dating etc. We have scientific proof that dinosaurs were contemporary with humans not so long ago. Take all evolutionary dating methods with a pinch of salt for rocks and fossils they are not worth the time of day. The whole ideal geologic column is fake news, it is a false image of where man originated from, and for those who recognise this, it has come crashing down to the ground like the chaff of the summer threshing floor and chaff does not hang about but gets blown away by the wind.
@fanabudrogh9241 Thank you for your honesty and forth rightness in this matter. I wish we had more people like you speaking out. Great men tell the truth and often suffer persecution for doing so. You may enjoy this reasoning:
The Evolutionary Origin of Birds
This is a matter of deduction, it is all guess work. Pure fantasy and imagination based on the artificial geologic column. There is no fossil evidence of the stages through which this remarkable change from reptile to bird was achieved. Impossible alterations needed in order to change a reptile into a bird: A “variety of feathers” covering the bird, growth of wings, strengthening of certain muscles, higher blood sugar levels and body temperate levels, this is a drastic change, total revision of respiratory, nervous and reproductive systems, lightening of bones in order for it to fly, new digestive system and instinctive behaviours, every specie is subject to irreducible complexity. This is a problem for Darwinian Evolutionary Religion and a bridge too far for natural selection based on random mutations relative to the genome. It is not possible to have a build-up of genetic complexity. Irreducible complexity speaks for itself. They say it takes about 20 transitional forms [guesswork] to change one- specie into another. Charles Darwin said, “As by this theory innumerable transitional forms must have existed, why do we not find them embedded in countless numbers in the crust of the earth? Good question Charlie! The number of intermediate links between all living and extinct species must have been inconceivably great!
A note on Comparative anatomy
This not evidence for evolution. It just means that when you have a good design you use it to create a variety of species. For example: the foot, knee and ankle. Man invented the wheel, utilizing it on carts, bicycles, cars, trams, steering wheels etc.
Evolution is on trial here not Creation.
If there were a number of evolutionists in a room with one creationist, who do you think would have the legitimate right to throw a stone? If the creationist said to the evolutionists show me fossil evidence of macro-evolution on a grand- scale. All the evolutionists would have to leave the room one by one, beginning at the eldest to the youngest; he would be left alone in the room. The creationist would be the one that had the legitimate right to throw stones at all the evolutionists, but he could not do so. Being a Christian he would show love and have mercy upon the willingly ignorant, praying that they may come to their senses! Being caught up in evolution being your occupation when suddenly the light comes on is not an easy position to find yourself in. As one molecular biologist said to me anonymously, that he could see design in all living organisms but he could not say he didn’t believe in evolution or he would be out of a source of income, words to the effect.
Objectivity of Science
“One cannot be exposed to the law and order of the universe without concluding that there must be design and purpose behind it all. To be forced to believe only one conclusion that everything in the universe happened by chance [my opinion doesn’t make sense] would violate the very objectivity of science itself. They [evolutionists] challenge science to prove the existence of God. But must we really light a candle to see the sun? It is in scientific honesty that I endorse the presentation of alternative theories for the origin of the universe, life and man in the science classroom. It would be an error to overlook that the universe was planned rather than happening by chance.”
Dr. Wernher von Braun [Father of American rocket and space program]
The problem today is communism and a lack of scientific honesty, because evolutionists are hostile towards belief in God. This teaching is all part of the globalist agenda which will end in tears.
I would have liked to see Richard Dawkins debate a man like this.

we need more ppl like him ... a lot more
Drop-dead gorgeous ! He's looks pretty good now, even in his 70's.
Brilliant. We need presentations like this in every school in America, and the world, if possible.
I sometimes think we should teach what religion says in sepvarate classes in school along side of science . But only the facts of religion , only the facts of science . I think that we would see a statification of the student body along lines of emotional strength and of intelligence level . Any fence sitters would sooner jump into the deep end and struggle than the shallow end and face no such challlenge .
Be sure to include how many generations of beneficial mutations, natural selection, and adaptation it would have taken. Hasn't even been enough earth time for that to happen.

Wish you would redo this with updated graphics and the like for children of today. I will be incurageing my children to watch this for sure thanks for sharing.
may be get Seth McFarland to help fun it he helped with the new Cosmos. IT is Great!!.. Another thing I will bore my kids with as well.
Simon Brown Rather have some thing that's true and not religious garbage.
Thanks but was just looking for scientific educational material. Their are several churches close by me or family members I can get religious information from.
No offense
Bumble Weaver
no reason to be nasty..
yes, there absolutely is. those types of people are a detriment to advancement in society. waiting for the uneducated and ignorant to die off is taking too long.
I didn't realise Dawkins was so cute at one point. Had I been a teenager or young girl in this audience I would have developed an instant crush.
Was? :P But I know what you mean, I totally thought he was in his late 30s here and he was 50!
I’d have loved to study Biology under him !
Girlwhomust notbenamed - Dawkins was the Dorian Gray of the 1990s. He must of had a portrait of himself as a fat middle-aged geyser tucked away in his attic. Unfortunately the years have finally caught up with him now, (and with a-vengeance). Thank goodness he still possesses his brilliant mind and beautiful voice.
And so are you ;)
He was 50 years old.
Just done watching the 5th episode, these lectures were way ahead of their time, everybody should know about shows like this I found out about it recently at the age of 28, it would've been great If I had the chance to watch it at an early age.
It's a crime not to air this show in every channel of every country.
Man, Richard Dawkins is a living encyclopedia!
UV0023 I do absolutely agree with you.
This should be even used in school.
+UV0023 I just felt I have to put it next to Carl Sagan's Cosmos. it's fantastic!
39. In 2 weeks time i will be 40. I was being introduced to simple concept of evolution, space by my father at the age of around 10.
I 100% agree with your opinion. I absolutely loved this documentation and wished it got more exposure in various forms of media, not just UA-cam. This show is better than the majority of the banal and vapid crap that's being promoted now a days.
SHLM & HaB (peace & love). The Name of the Creator is Hayah asher Hayah, as what He told Mose (Exodus 3:14), preserved in the Hebrew Scriptures.

All followers of the Messiah are to do the 7 appointed times (Leviticus 23), but no more animal sacrifices, following the Crucifixion of the Messiah. We are now of the order of MLK TSDQ (King, righteous), to Whom ABRaHM tithed. Ask the Messiah to be your personal Savior. He is the Atoning Offering for mankind for the remission of sin ( 1 John 2:1-2). He said to him, I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me (John 14:6). If you believe the Messiah died on the cross, & Resurrected three days later (presenting Himself as First Fruits to the Father), please ask Him to be your Savior. He is the ONLY way to Everlasting Life.
That baby crying at 1:25 is now an adult, probably with their own home and a college degree.
lol
well he/she would be 24 years old, so maybe not their own house quite yet :P
AFDozerman Perhaps they are watching this and feel nostalgic.
Perhaps they are watching this and dont even realise thats them.
I hope it has grown up as a scientist
Always such a gentleman.... those religious nuts who claim that he is "bullish" or "rude" are simply insane.
they are jealous of Dawkins omniscience and perfect word.
they don't think he's rude, I believe. people tend to insult other people that they don't like, with any word that comes to their mind, whether appropriate or not. they are busy trying to make the other person feel bad that they don't realize nothing they say make sense
He has manners, but he doesnt have consideration for beliefs as a personal thing. I make fun of super hero fans, and i bet they too feel i attack them the same way. But yeah.

@@ginarios9442 Who wrote these words? Is there any non christian sources that confirm these written words? Other Religions make claims, why is your preferred version of invisible supernatural being the one I should prefer? Why spontaneous natural abortions? Why unintelligent design like let's say Crohn's disease or small birth canals forcing surgeons to safe mother/child?
Can you give us one example of a Supernatural explanation beating a naturalistic explanation?
Thanks.
I’m 64 years old and utterly fascinated by these lectures (I know) for children. Thank you Mr Dawkins for continuing to educate.

It's really awesome that you watch these educational videos and learn new things about life and universe. I really admire you. 👍🤓
@@amiraboodi2075 I am here to expose the truth!
The Cabrera Collection is the Evolutionist’s Nightmare
These carved ICA stones where first recognized in the 1500’s by the Spanish Conquistador that not only depicted dinosaurs but surgical operations which modern medicine today was just starting to practice. In obscure and ancient journals it has been mentioned that strange engraved stones were found, predating the peasants who have been accused of carving these images on the stones by 450 years. Catholic priests and Chroniclers remarked about these stones who also accompanied the Spanish Conquistadors as they invaded South America.
Convention
Dr Javier Cabrera spoke at the first Convention of the Director’s of the Department of Culture in Peru. He made his case for a study of the ICA Stones to archaeologists present in June 1968. The Convention gave unanimous support at the time of Dr. Cabrera’s proposal, so he prepared his case for official authorization to have a systematic excavation in archaeology in the zone of Ocucaje. Suddenly when the government authorities became aware of his intentions, they without notice relieved him from his position of Director of Cultural Affairs of Ica with immediate effect. What were they afraid off? The new Director of the Museum, who had been set up, refused to allow the institution’s collection of engraved stones to be put on public display. They were immediately stored in vaults. As you might say, out of sight, out of mind. This man of sin said no tests were necessary because a friend of his said they had been carved by local peasants in Ocucaje. This was a cover-up and a denial of the evidence 10,000 stones which looked exquisite showing a variety of species which peasants have never seen before and had no knowledge of them except trained paleontologists. Local peasants had carved them, I don’t think so!
Authentication of the ICA Stones by NASA Scientist
Joseph Bullrich who developed the design of the Saturn V missile and worked on the design of the Skylab also studied the ICA Stones. His conclusion, “There is no doubt in my mind about the authenticity of these stones’ pictures.” What a testimony from a highly qualified scientist. Pterosaurs and flying pteranodons were also pictured on the perplexing ICA Stones. Engraved stones have been recovered from tombs in the Ocucaje Desert. These authentic archaeological specimens particularly of dinosaurs; should have been the focus of worldwide attention. The scholars scoffed at them out of fear and cowardice and then let them mysteriously disappear in silence to the back rooms of the ICA Regional Museum, out of public sight. That is where they are today in 2023. Any enquiry about viewing them is met with silence through bureaucratic red tape. I have no doubt in my mind today, that if evolutionists felt threatened by them, that if anybody tried to put them on public display, they would destroy every single one of them in order to protect the Sacred Cow of Evolution. Herman Buse reopened the issue of the engraved stones in 1972 at the Congress of Andean Archaeology. Many foreign and national archaeologists had gathered at Lima. Buse pointed out to the participants their duty to give an official opinion of the ICA Stones. The Lima newspaper EL Comericio published an article on the Herman Buse lecture at the conference, blasting the incredulity of these archaeologists for refusing to address the authenticity of these stones as other qualified men believe in them that is in their legitimacy and certifiable antiquity. The establishment rejected his request out of hand, showing no interested in studying the stones. These foreign and national archaeologists are terrified of the ICA Stones, if shown to be authentic would destroy with a pedestal blow the evolutionary Tower of Time: the ideal geologic column, shattering contemporary ideas of the origin of man and indeed life itself. Scientific denials make good headlines and propaganda for media outlets. In those days newspapers working for the government were spoon feeding the populace as in the case of the media of television today and the internet their propaganda etc.
I love listening to Richard Dawkins. He teaches science with such passion with his main motivation to seek the truth. Long live Professor Dawkins. You are a gift to the world.

You are bi-curious
Bit weird.
No surprise from the night man cometh
I was one year old at the time of this lecture. The man has been dropping truth and wisdom for longer then I thought. This was wonderful and worth watching even though I already understood everything covered.

@@rafayshakeel4812 You're too uneducated and childish to be watching this video.
@@chrispridemore5562 Very funny 😂 I am too uneducated and childish for watching this idiotic video. Let me tell you something? Learn the philosophy of science, then talk. If you are too lazy to learn about the philosophy of science, then let me explain it to you, Chris Joker. Here it is - The philosophy of science has foundations, methods, and the implications of science. If a person comes up with another theory about the origin of life and that theory has more weight, in terms of evidence, then it will become the latest theory. Science is continuously evolving & changing. There were many famous theories, which were considered to be the absolute truth, yet they are nothing more than a mystical discussion now. Let me give you an example - If you go back 50 years, then there was a theory about the Universe, called ( The Static Universe ). This theory basically said that the Universe was eternal and it never had a beginning. This theory got replaced with a new theory, which we now know as ( The Theory of Big Bang ). As you can see that no matter how much faith you have in science, it will still evolve and leave you behind, if you don't follow it's fundamental principles. The fundamental principles of science are simple. Here it is - Always be an agnostic about everything you learn about science, because it might change in the future. I hope you learned something today my friend.
Just look at him smile 😍😍 8:39

Thanks to this lecture I got rid of suicidal thoughts. Dear Richard, thank you so much!

Watching this is 2016 and it's still a great educational documentary for young adults and also adults. Richard Dawkins is truly one of the greatest men of our time when it comes to fighting for real education for our children and future generations
Gosh, he was quite the strapping chap back in his day....
This is a much better description of my experience so far than anything I have heard or read from the religious community.
I would have liked to have a teacher like this in my youth. He has a special talent. And I admire his work very much. The God Delusion especially... made it all make sense to me.
I remember watching this first time around. This was one of the best years for the xmas lectures that still stays with me to this day. I didn't realise how atheistic many of the messages were as a kid when I watched it.

thank you sir richard from pakistan .I would like to tell you that i am also atheist and i think we people of 21 century are totally stupid and vulgar mentality .we even today fighting on religion which doesnt had real existence and fight for nothing.even religious people are not folllowing his religion .No one has patience to hear my words so still i am silent about it because pakistani people are so much extremist
love to you and guide people to that track which is looking sensible
It sucks that you have to keep something as trivial as this secret, but there is no other way in Pakistan, too dangerous. How is life there and how did you become atheist? Best of luck.
Best of luck
This is what families should be going to see on a Sunday instead of being restricted by religion.
If only the world have more Richard Dawkins...:) :) :)
Quite possibly the best teaching tool on the planet.
well the baby was part of the lecture, that'll teach me to not be such an arse in the future heh
After watching a great number of Prof. Dawkins's presentations, and never seeing another baby as a prop, I suspect he wishes he had dropped the baby line from this onr
Why pick religon they don't have dinosaurs
+1000
Ringo Teh Magician dinosaurs fuck yea.
Junascookies religion does have dinosaurs. Read the bible. Clearly states.
Be real with yourself. Those descriptions best fit monsters, not dinosaurs. Leviathan is a literal fire breathing dragon or sea serpent. I see no evidence of the bible mentioning their extinction either, if anything that scripture is there just to show that God is more powerful than all of his creation, including the monsters.
As a Christian (Or theist now, not a christian anymore), i loved Jurassic Park on PS1 as a kid. So dinosaurs are very fun.
OMG! Hannah baby is so sweet❤️❤️❤️
As soon as I have kids, I'll expose them to this wonderful lecture.
Amazing lectures! Thank you mr Dawkins.
30:01 POWERHOUSE OF THE CELL!
I wish there were more intelligent and heart warming people in the world like Richard Dawkins.
He teaches so well. He can be appreciated by people of all ages! Prof. Dawkins has my utmost respect and adoration.
this was amazing! I love this guy
lol the baby is hilarious.. "here is it that we are born and bred and live.." WAAAHHH
Thank you Royal Institution, Richard Dawkins and his Foundation for Reason & Science for uploading this in its entirety for free!
But the price of Salvation was the blood of Yahushgh. We were bought with a price, paid for by the Creator. SHLM & HaB (peace & love). The Name of the Creator is Hayah asher Hayah, as what He told Mose (Exodus 3:14), preserved in the Hebrew Scriptures. There is a curse to the G-o-d name (Isaiah 65:11-12), preserved in the Hebrew Scriptures. All followers of the Messiah are to do the 7 appointed times (Leviticus 23), but no more animal sacrifices, following the Crucifixion of the Messiah. We are now of the order of MLK TSDQ (King, righteous), to Whom ABRaHM tithed. Ask the Messiah to be your personal Savior. He is the Atoning Offering for mankind for the remission of sin ( 1 John 2:1-2). He said to him, I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me (John 14:6). If you believe the Messiah died on the cross, & Resurrected three days later (presenting Himself as First Fruits to the Father), please ask Him to be your Savior. He is the ONLY way to Everlasting Life.
Thank you so much for uploading this amazing educational video with professor Richard Dawkins.
Wow! That was so much fun. Moving on to Ep. 2. Thank you Richard.
Do not delay til it is too late, please. Today is a good day for Salvation. SHLM & HaB (peace & love).

There is a curse to the G-o-d name (Isaiah 65:11-12), preserved in the Hebrew Scriptures.

@@ginarios9442 tf? 😆
@@trevergleason8924 So it may seem right in your eyes to mock the witness of Salvation, but I assure you, when everlasting comes, you will EITHER HAVE received the Messiah as your Savior or you will have said no to the gift of Salvation. I am most hopeful that you accept the Messiah as your Savior.
He is such a delight to look at and listen to. God bless him, forgive the expression. :')
Simply a must see!
I just want to watch the series of lectures over and over again!
Damn, Richard was pretty handsome here.
What a nice lecture !!!
I remember watching this at the time. It was the first time I had ever heard of Dawkins and I've been a fan since. I wish I had had teachers like him.
I regret for not able to watch while I was a student. I am glad I listened to it now
How are you doing now sir ?
BRILLANTE!!!
you have a great convincing ways , I'm happy to watching this scientific video , I hope I can meet you in some day .
Hamza from Iraq
May the search for knowledge and understanding spread throughout the world. Good on you from America.
So clear and concise.
That baby crying is perfect background music when RD asks : what is life? Why are we here? How are we here?!
2:55 to skip Professor Boring-Pants.
+AbominableHuman It sounds like he's doing his Michael Caine impression....
Best nickname ever.
Darling man hitchens and dawkins when I need intelligent listening I call on these old friendsB. Russel and a few others. Some people should not get ill or old and die
awwww I was 3 years old :,( in 1991. I love the part when he carries the baby
This was so good I bought it on DVD many years ago.
I miss that table.
Dawkins´ attitude and the insights he gives are compelling but the design of the materials and illustrations looks more 1960s than 1990s. Has graphic design so much improved during the past 25 years?
+KlausM54 I love 90's but yes, I think that graphics looked terrible at this time XD btw I'm from 1985 so I remember it, huh.
+KlausM54 Yeah, his looks, his shirt and the design together fooled me into believing this was late 70s LOL.
Such a beautiful mind! ❤❤❤
Keep up your amazing work Professor Dawkins!
Thank you Dr. Dawkins!
richard dawkins is a genius
THE INTELLECTUAL ELITE
Amazing videos. change my view of living in 90's. I am happy to find these series on youtube.
This is fantastic, thank you for uploading.
Quite a handsome chap 😏
Who's here thanks for Tracey from the atheist experience? 😊
Roses are Red me!! 😁
Rosie..i just did..heard fr Tracie about this lecture series..immediately tuned to this..amazing..
The baby at 1:18 had poetic timing.
It feels like Richard takes so much joy out of teaching people about his cherished subject of evolutionary biology. It's great to see him smiling like that.
Dawkins was and is brilliant!!!
Preaching theory like it's fact is brilliant? More like arrogant..
@@daedalos5132 If you were into science you would know what fundamentally is wrong with what you wrote.
@@ratti80 I do love and appreciate science and the scientific method. Dawkins shouldn't be speaking as if what he is saying is fact. Not once did he mention that evolution is a theory because he's so sure of himself (ie arrogant).
@@daedalos5132 Evolution was a theory some 20 years ago. It is now considered a fact die to the massive evidence.
Of course, as you know, since you appreciate science, nothing will ever be a fact. We can only try and falsify the theory.
@@ratti80 At least Dawkins had the common sense to say that the big bang theory was a theory and that theories change over time.. but your (and Dawkins) bias towards evolution does a disservice to science. The THEORY of evolution when it comes to the human species is not considered fact because there is no proof whatsoever that one species can jump to a completely different one. Evidence shows evolution only occurs WITHIN a species; there is no proof we come from chimps or any other SPECIES.
He was so deadpan about reading the cuneiform that i am still not sure if he was serious.
Deadpan comedy is one of the greatest gifts of the British to the world, lol.
At least I feel like that sort of dry, deadpan expression is a pretty British thing. Common in Monty Python. And it always cracks me up.
Beautiful! I could never find a way to articulate it the way you did!
Stunningly brilliant educator.
Dawkins... you were such a good lookin young man. i kinda have a crush on u.
All atheists are gorgeous - Factoid.
Lindsay Jenney "Young man"... he was actually 50 here :P But he was incredibly handsome indeed
This lecture is from 1991
@@Kevo216666 atheist eat babys this is a fact
@@sherwoodsmallidge9186 hahaha....
I'm surprised somebody was allowed to bring a baby into the lecture hall. They are infinitely worse than cellphones. I don't think that woman had a clue how uninteresting that baby was to everybody else in the lecture hall.
did you watch the full video?
+Sassol66 The baby was "planted" there by Dawkins himself
Oh good to know! I haven’t finished it yet and now I will
Awesome!
Love Dawkins.
Great to be alive.
He has a wonderful way of comprehending longer periods of time !!
We are at 6020 years, according to those keeping time, BNY YSHRAL. Some groups (BNY YSHRAL) have a slightly different time, but similar. SHLM & HaB (peace & love).

Apparently you can only fold a piece of paper 9 times, no matter what size it is,
+Shauny MixMaker That's wrong.
+Shauny MixMaker
DON'T YOU WATCH MYTHBUSTERS?
They folded a piece of paper the size of a football field 11 times.
Theoretically, many more folds are feasible. Just incredibly difficult.
what if Hannah grew up to be religious?
o.O
it would be such disappointing... i think we would feel like the same way stupid parents do when they get mad when they find out their son is homossexual... the difference is that their son is normal and natural, and Hannah's mind got distorted.
Good for her then....
I have been watching the Christmas lectures couple times a year.
How anyone could think Dawkins is mean and callous makes me dumbfounded.
The man is a true gentleman able to connect with people of all ages.
Its a gift to live in the time of Professor Richard Dawkins
Dawkins is a second class zoologist who sells oldfashioned farty dogmas to arather naive people. Dont let this farty old guy be your guru. Start thinking yourself !
I watched this series when I was 26. It changed my life because it gave me a fascination with evolution and swept away muddled thinking about what humans are
How are you doing now sir
All of these comments about the baby... How can people not realize that it was probably Dawkins idea to have it there?
NuncFluens Why?
If I die and realize that there is a God and go to hell because of my disbelief then I'll blame it on Richard Dawkins!
+Zakariye Abdi Hassan Hell would be awesome! Consider who would be down there as well!
+Zakariye Abdi Hassan Don't worry m8,you won't.
+H. Sch. Really? If I were constantly burning and having my skin regrown to burn again and again, I don't think I'd care about the company :P Now I feel sorry for the kids who are being scared like this : (
***** With all the scientists down there, it is more than likely that a solution to this problem has already been found. In fact, they may have already surpassed the living standards of heaven!
If I believed that hell existed, I wouldn't go there because I trust scientists to figure it out. If in hell there is not just fire but also mental tortures, like a cloudy mind, unwillingness to work, like in sleep deprivation, or if Satan induces a state of mind you'd have in a mild bad trip, then I really doubt that anybody can figure anything out...
this is a brilliant lecture. he covers so much ground!
What a great teacher!
damn that baby!
What, no baby sitter lady?
Maybe she didn't have a sitter and didnt let her duties as a mother hold her back form enjoying and taking an interest in science.... as it has for millions of women for thousands of years.
Lindsay Jenney I'M TEASING, I Love babies, except Christian ones. AAAH, I'm teasing again!
She was obviously part of the talk.
Lindsay Jenney then she should have left the baby in the trunk of her car.
@@lindsayjenney2270 she was being fucking inconsiderate by spoiling it for other people. it may have been ok for her but others wont like a screaming baby the whole lecture. she was a irresponsible cow
Such an inspiring and beautifully conducted lecture... loved the cannonball part
It was wonderful, I learned a lot of things I didn’t even think about, thank you for your effort, it was extremely scientific.
Don't bring babies to lectures.
17:38
BOB OVER Don't bring babies to church. They cry too much so you cant listen to the bullshit.
Did you even bother to watch the video?
Asrar Hassan that baby is so cute 😄
I agree, unless they’re part of the demonstration.
so much coughing in the background, seriously if you have a cold or something just sit out the lecture or at least bring a water bottle or something.
great lecture though
Listening to you is so inspiring, that some times I get alil teary eyed. Ty sir
I have seen this series before and go to watch it a second time. It is just fantastic. good presented and even for people without any knowledge easy to understand and faszinating.
It is a pity even this amesome lecture falls on deaf ears where it would be the most useful.
who would bring a baby to something like this?
How can you be that stupid? You have to be from murica.
bary1234
You're asking someone how they could be so stupid and yet you're not above generalizing an entire people.
Valens Frey
Murica has lots of stupid people. Most really really stupid people who comment in youtube are from murica. And this particular moron was from murica.
What "entire people" did I generalize here?
I thought that too the first time I saw this video, but then I realized they were invited and were props within the lecture.
If you would have actually watched the entire lecture instead of the first 5 minutes you would understand why there is a baby there
Why would you bring a baby to a lecture like this, when it's obviously going to scream and ruin it for everyone?
+Rhett Butler
Have you paid attention? Hanna is a part of the lecture. Whether she was pre-planned to be, I don't know, but she was part of it. And, don't whine, her musings were much less than a baby's cry has the potential to be.
She’s part of the lecture, Dawkins actually picks her up later and describes Farraday’s response to Sir Robert Peal. Now what’s annoying is the person coughing for 20 minutes in the middle. Eat a cough drop!
I FREAKING LOVED IT!!!!!!
I had every intention of goung to bed at a reasonable hour (in my estimation) but here I am at 1 am about to listen to the next in the series.
