      @gerardmoloney433 of the "Discovery Institute"- "we are a group of scientists". This is a lie.
      The DI is a right-wing Christian pressure group.
      Meyer has a basic degree in physics from a small private fundamentalist school offering no postgraduate education in any science. His publications in the professional scientific literature number....ZREO. There was a pathetic research free essay smuggled into the PBSW journal by a corrupt crony. It appeared because the peer review process had been cheated. It was instantly dropped.
      Berlinski- failed academic who poses as a mathematician. Is not and never has been a scientist of any kind.
      Founding fanatic- Philip Johnson: pig-ignorant, scientifically illiterate LAWYER.
      Casey Luskin, professional lying smear merchant and LAWYER.....redundant degree in geology.

      @gerardmoloney433 He relentlessly lies about attending a conference convened by the UK Royal Society. He was in THE AUDIENCE- not an invited participant.
      He ties himself in knots lying that the point of the conference was to replace evolution. It was not. He then prattles repeatedly about his two hobby horses- the Cambrian "explosion" and the painfully tedious "information" drivel he's been peddling for years. The point being to get his witless drones to believe these were the focus of the conference. They were not, and he knows damn well that neither was even a topic of discussion.
      Larry Moran is an actual scientist (Emeritus professor U of Toronto) who actually attended the conference and has blogged that Meyer is simply lying.
      Gerd Mueller, who is an actual scientist who actually presented an actual paper at the conference has also reamed Meyer for his grotesque misrepresentation of his work.

      And which one of his arguments have you refuted???? Rhetoric is not an argument. So what he talks about the Cambrian explosion. It’s factual and presents a significant challenge to Neo Darwinianism. Going from very simple cells to complex biological organisms in a geological short period of time is challenging. I was in University in the mid 80s and I vividly remember Gould and Eldridge postulating Punctuated Equilibria to challenge the lack of intermediates. So to suggest there aren’t significant challenges to the current naturalistic model is just disingenuous:

I became disabled early in my career and felt I was useless and the Christian school I had my children in was not giving them what they needed. I am a single mother of two with one being Autistic. I decided to home school using the Christian school ABEKA. With two at different ages made it very difficult but God threw a retired Christian teacher into my world and he helped me teach for many years. Just believe you are going to be able to make it! GOD is great I just wish I knew sooner. Now my kids are older and help with finding the sales at the grocery store it’s the way we make it. You have absolutely no reason to be ashamed go to Phil Robertson they do a very laid back bible study an hour four times a week. Look at the Robertsons for faith. They have a beautiful story of redemption and a movie in theaters now called The Blind if you don’t know who they are this movie will explain. They have changed my way of thinking.

If not, it says in Romans 10: 9-10 If thou Shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and the mouth confession is made unto salvation. I will pray for you.

You keep your head up and keep on praying. Owe and I know you’re busy and tired so any downtime is hard to give up but finding a good Christian Church to attend will only be a blessing to you and your children.

      Can you recognize evil actions from good actions in your Bible? Because most children age 10 and older are able to correctly identify good/evil actions when reading certain passages in the Bible. YOUR GOD IN THE UNHOLY BIBLE instructs how to buy and sell men, women and even children as slaves (personal property). Even how to own slaves for life and passing your male/female slaves to your children as inherited property. IT'S EVIL.
      Leviticus 25:44-46
      44 Your male and female slaves are to come from the nations around you; from them you may buy slaves.
      45 You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their clans born in your country, and they will become your property.
      46 You can bequeath them to your children as inherited property and can make them slaves for life, but you must not rule over your fellow Israelites ruthlessly.
      Your god commands, "THOU SHALT NOT KILL", yet, commands a father (Abraham) to murder his own son (Isaac) and set him of fire as a burnt offering! Genesis 22:2 - And He said, take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thy love, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.
      Your god is also also so petty and evil he murders his own people simply for non-descript harmless complaints.

      HIS SUPERNATURAL BIONIC HEARING HEARS A GROUP OF ISRAELITES SIMPLY COMPLAIN AMONGST THEMSELVES - YOUR VIOLENT, NARCISSISTIC, JEALOUS GOD GOES INTO A FIT OF RAGE AND IMPULSIVELY KILLS HIS GROUP OF PEOPLE THAT WERE COMPLAINING AMONGST THEIRSELVES AND BURNS THEM ALIVE. BURNED ALIVE WAS HIS CREATIVE CHOICE FOR MURDER. THEY WEREN'T EVEN TALKING TO HIM. YHWH REFUSED TO TALK WITH HIS ISRAELITE CHILDREN. YOUR gOD SPOKE WITH TWO BROTHERS, MOSES AND AARON. YET, WHEN HIS PEOPLE DESPERATELY CRY OUT AND PRAY FOR SUPERNATURAL HEALING OR A CHILD CRIES OUT FOR HELP WHEN THEY ARE BEING RAPED OR MURDERED, HE DOES "NOTHING". IRONICALLY, DOCTORS, EVEN GAY AND AGNOSTIC DOCTORS, ARE HEALING AND SAVING LIVES OF THE SAME CHRISTIANS THAT VIEW THEM AS AN ABOMINATION.

    Without a design for life on earth, it would not exist and that must come from God. Yet this world is designed with death, guilt and fear as well. Only when we see through the illusion of the latter can we accept eternal life that we all truly are. "That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit." That realization comes not by observation but from prayer. "Judge not by appearance but judge by righteous judgment"

    You got it, Kirk, at the end there. When scientists are looking for "intelligent life" on other planets they seem to focus on humanoid type beings or beings that have similar characteristics as humans. If God created everything that means any other being on earth, in heaven and everywhere in between including the different categories of angels that we actually know very little about. We know only what God chooses to share with us and as generations pass we can learn so much more by remaining open and not directing information.

    Now, I am a logical thinker, and generally unbiased in the first instance. I listened to this with interest and without bias. However, the more I listened, the more I was less convinced. I am hearing a very clever play with words that sound plausible because of the way the prose has been written - the fact that a sentence is constructed with an effect being directly attributed to a cause does not mean that it is. The universe has been fine tuned, and the odds of that happening are tiny, so it must have been god; the odds of winning the Euro millions is tiny, so are we saying that because the odds are tiny, if it comes to pass, it must have been god? That seems to me to be a delusion, as events that are statistically small do happen, but here we are told and expected to believe that a statistically small chance of an event occurring is the same as that event being impossible. A simple example, but if you analyse all the “statements of fact”, you will see the same construct. Now, yer man might believe it, but you don’t have to!

    Wikipedia:
    "Stephen C. Meyer is an American author and former educator. He is an advocate of the pseudoscience of intelligent design and helped found the Center for Science and Culture (CSC) of the Discovery Institute which is the main organization behind the intelligent design movement. Before joining the DI, Meyer was a professor at Whitworth College, now Whitworth University. Meyer is a senior fellow of the DI and director of the CSC.
    Whitworth University is a private, Christian university affiliated with the Presbyterian Church (USA) and located in Spokane, Washington.
    The Wedge Strategy promoted by Stephen is a creationist political and social action plan authored by the Discovery Institute, the hub of the pseudoscientific intelligent design movement. The strategy was put forth in a Discovery Institute manifesto known as the Wedge Document. Its goal is to change American culture by shaping public policy to reflect politically conservative fundamentalist evangelical Protestant values."

    Stephen uses his science degrees to promote faith in his religious beliefs and override the First Amendment whereas the Scientific Method uses testable, reliable evidence.

    Intelligent design? It has been more a case of DUMMKOPF DESIGN. (Dummkopf is a German word which means dumb-headed, dopey, doozy) :) Most of the species that once appeared on earth, have gone extinct. Take life as it exists: one species attacking, killing and eating another species. Life is essentially brutal, ruthless and heartless. Life living on life, that is so-called "Intelligent" Design? Only a completely heartless and cruel creator would create such life, where carnivore animals tear innocent herbivores apart and start eating their flesh even before they are fully dead. I believe I scanned over the book being discussed in this video, but I plan to drive over to our library and borrow it again. In any case, as per the Bible, the world is only a few (6000) years old. Knowing that the universe is 13.8 billion years old and earth is 4.54 billion years old, we must give zero credibility to the biblical concept of creation. Viewers of this channel may want to explore the Hindu concepts of the age of the universe.
    Carl Sagan, in his wonderful TV series and book COSMOS, wrote: "The Hindu religion is the only one of the world's great faiths dedicated to the idea that the Cosmos itself undergoes an immense, indeed an infinite, number of deaths and rebirths. It is the only religion in which the time scales correspond, no doubt by accident, to those of modern scientific cosmology. Its cycles run from our ordinary day and night to a day and night of Brahma, 8.64 billion years long, longer than the age of the Earth or the Sun and about half the time since the Big Bang."

    Yes, there is intelligent design. The watch maker, using his experience, designs an electric watch. But what is this to do with a universe the extent of and the reason for which can never be said. Can anyone sincerely look at the frail, fragmenting, ferocious universe that will one day swallow the earth into its incinerating gullet and say it was intelligently designed? Can anyone look at little earth on which whole species have been destroyed, and millions of people have been put to death by disease, famine, and war and say it was all intelligently designed? Can anyone look today at the men, women and children currently smashed to pieces by the power of missiles and say they are part of an intelligent design. Was the drowning of the human race by God "the father" because he thought it was too violent a part of his intelligent design? Were Hitler's murder of millions of Jews etc. an intelligent design? Is the child born unable to walk or talk part of an intelligent design. There is no God, there is only the human species: warriors fighting hopefully in a battle which we might win today, but will be some day wholly lost! But still, for all the impossibility of our ultimate deaths in the sun's fire or a nuclear war, we must love our neighbors as ourselves.

    Stephen C. Meyer although, of course, is welcome to his opinions, does not have any qualifications which would suggest any expertise in the theory of evolution. At least he gives the impression of being intelligent and, at least, having an argument. But he needs to talk to experts in the fields he claims to know something about. The interviewer does not impress me at all, however. His comment can be ignored.

      So anybody that has not received the degrees you deem necessary isn’t worth listening to in the conversation. Dr. Meyer is a scientist and has conversed with many such experts. Many biologists today are questioning evolutionary theory and have posed such concerns in their meetings. That includes many that are not apologists for Christianity. They simply find the theory has difficulties given new scientific information not available to Darwin. And the statement we should not pay attention to the interviewer since he is not a biologist is arrogant beyond belief. He is a thinking human being able to come to logical conclusions.

      @@patriciahein8233 The interviewer seemed to be trying to push Stephen Meyer into some kind of creationist opinion. In my view the interviewer should be neutral and ask interesting questions. That is why he did not impress me. But this is generally true, in an interview rather than a peer discussion, the views of the interviewer are not normally relevant.
      If you look at scientific theories over the last 2,000 years or so, most, with very few exceptions, have been proved wrong. This is how science works, although only recognised in the last 500 years or so. Science relies on empirical evidence, more data is found, more accurate measurements made and an existing theory together with its mathematical model adjusted or replaced. But, and this is the point, a new theory only replaces the old if it is a better theory.
      Although not really relevant, your assumption that human beings are able to come to logical conclusions, is not generally true. The Birthday Paradox is a well known case of intuition being logically incorrect. Mathematicians, scientists, engineers and lawyers are trained to think logically, the rest of the population is probably split 50/50 on this ability.
