The science. The information. The wonders. Whether they be large structures like galaxies or microscopic ones in the cell I stand awed and humbled at how much I didn’t (and still don’t) know. And even while I wasn’t aware of these wonders they still existed, making me feel a bit foolish for such things as taking life for granted at times, having been agnostic for a couple years in my early 20’s, avidly pursuing my own selfish pursuits without any consideration for others, sometimes feeling that God was an inconvenient truth etc.. Gratitude for this video!
Agree that the the wonders of the universe boggle the human mind and it may be beyond our intellectual capacity to unravel its mysteries, but that in no way mean that the existence of a god (or gods) is the explanation, unless “god” is simply a placeholder for “how this all works is beyond our human understanding”. We are more intelligent than a bumble bee and even a monkey, but that doesn’t mean that we have the intelligence required to understand everything. Perhaps asking a human to understand and explain the origins of life is like asking a monkey to explain how a combustion engine works. There is a physical explanation for how a combustion engine works even though that monkey doesn’t have the ability to comprehend it.
Exactly. He makes nanomachines that have repaired spinal nerves in rats. Feom no mobility to almost full. He is a scientist that actually creates things of use and doesn't depend on government funding.
These are the kind of scientists who deserve to be followed and respected, not the likes of Dawkins and Krause who have brought no benefit to humanity except for myths and stupid assumptions.
The thing that really gets me are the motor proteins that move supplies around the cell. Look up the little kinesin molecule, which literally (LITERALLY) walks along the newly formed microtubules in the cell with its load. Mind-boggling stuff, and just one example of His intelligence, love and care. Praise Him!!
It’s just a biased random walk. The bias is provided by the free energy from ATP. It’s cute but nothing really deep about the mechanism. There are far more complex systems in a cell.
As an engineer with over 40 years of experience in designing things and actually making them work - when I study all the sciences, I see overwhelming evidence of design by a Creator with perfect knowledge and understanding of all things, infinite intelligence, creativity and wisdom and unlimited power and ability. Life is far more sophisticated than our most advanced technology. There is no scientific basis whatsoever for the naive idea that life originated by the operation of purely natural laws.
Hi Sabyis. Is there any scientific evidence that life originated outside of the action of physical laws? [On the other hand, amino acids form stably out in space, and occasionally reach Earth as meteorites. And some nuclei acids form in simple Urey type plasma experiments. Gold has apparently shown that a huge variety of cyclic hydrocarbons form deep in the Earth, and can thermodynamically migrate to the surface.] I see that Tour understands that abiogenesis is a tough field these days, but what would you say are compelling reasons to believe that biology, which so apparently operates via physical laws, started in some fashion beyond physical laws?
@@SystemsMedicine Great question! I was entirely convinced that scientists would be creating life in the laboratory even as recently as 2 years ago; 72 years of belief, trashed by solid logic. One of the more interesting discoveries, by Dr. Jennifer Blank, et al. (and I don't remember the year), proved that simple, high-speed collision added molecular complexity to simple amino acids riding on meteorites. *_But consider this logic:_* At no time in our scientific investigations have *_Random Processes_* resulted in organized, functional structure. We have crystals, but they serve absolutely no function beyond themselves. Consider what it would take for nature, in the desert, with volcanic eruptions, to end up producing a "magma red," Mercedes Benz, SL500, with tires, engine, drive train, and a full tank of gasoline. We don't find hundreds of failed attempts of this strewn across the desert. The same can be said about assembling the building blocks of life. *_Random accident does NOT end up producing organized anything._* I strongly encourage you to see Dr. Tour's series on Abiogenesis. Riveting logic! The 4 building blocks he mentions, some of which are formed in mutually *_Exclusive_* environments, are far more prone to make the wrong chemical connections than the right ones. So, let us say you have one properly made protein, which is as likely as 1 chance in 10^100, and you need thousands more of the same molecule. But then the protein decays in hours, and you have to wait several Billion, Trillion, or Quadrillion years for the accident to produce another ONE such molecule. But then, you need the Lipids, Sugars and more to occur within the same narrow window of *_HOURS._* But a far more daunting challenge is one of proper assembly of all these *_unlikely_* building blocks. What accidents within random nature would push just the right lipids into position to form the bi-layer bubble which is the outer wall of the cell? BUT the most difficult challenge involves the *_information_* which organizes not only the machines which rearrange the building blocks of life, but maintains the information which tells the life how to build itself, to reorganize nutrients to grow the cell, and then to replicate and split the cell. *_Randomness AND Time_* are the ENEMIES of life forming in the first place. And the fact that the information so crucial to DNA and RNA are NOT found anywhere in nature outside of life itself means that life could not start by accident -- *_anywhere in the universe._* *_Therefore,_* if God formed life for only one purpose -- to redeem His non-physical children (NOT the bodies they wear) -- then there is likely only one planet out of several sextillion planets which contains life. In other words, an *_Empty Universe!_* And the inner *_Trekkie_* died the moment I realized that we would never see Klingons or Vulcans. 😎♥✝🇺🇸💯
As an engineer your outlook is very deterministic and the idea of mutation followed by selection is very alien to you, hence your skepticism. Given enough time these mechanisms can generate complexity. I assume you’ve come across genetic algorithms in computer science, if not they offer a very simple example of this idea in operation.

@@ashahadalmuthaab793 Oh yes, in your obsession to destroy science and technology, you end up destroying civilisation itself and returning us to the dark age.
I do this out of love but James Tour is a Christian that has met Christ. You can view his testimony here: ua-cam.com/video/QNGLZvtRoiU/v-deo.html Christ died on the Cross for your sins and on the third day rose from the dead and appeared to many people; this was to conquer death. It is also regarded as a historical fact by academic historians that Jesus died on the cross regardless of their religious beliefs.
Very refreshing, almost gives hope that science could one day no longer be abused and manipulated for political purposes and just be used for discovery.
There is no sane individual, good or evil, who wants his own scientists to lie to him about their discoveries. This is so because knowledge is power. In our world, it is the secretive wealthy who pull the strings of the political puppets they own, it is the secretive wealthy who control what info, what truth and what lies get published by the journalistic enterprises which they own. It's not science, rather, it is we, whose knowledge about science is gained only via the distorting lens of the media, who are "abused and manipulated for political purposes"!
Dear Dr Tour, May I add to the many who have already said thank you, I'm sure that you have and are risking a lot by speaking out the way you do, but I pray that you keep doing so, to the point that this whole issue is brought out in the wider arena, once Again, THANK YOU!
Wow, im not only impressed with the wisdom contained in this video, but also in the comment section, for a change, and it includes even educated people. I say " even " educated people because I've had too many debates with people who have degrees in science but don't really understand what real science is. They think because they were taught it, it must be true ( science ). They don't understand the differences between proof, evidence, and simple hypothesis. They don't see how some scientists are very bias ( including themselves ) and ignore evidences against their unproven beliefs. They think anyone who disagrees with the commonly held beliefs aren't good scientists and heaven forbid that anyone who doesn't have a degree in science shows them the logical fallacies , suppressed evidence, leaps of logic, and hypothesis presented as proven fact involved in certain fields of study. Education does not equal intelligence. Some educated people are too proud of what they know ( and sometimes what they know isn't even true ) and not humbled by what they do not know.
You can't build a conscious either. It's good to hear academic people with common sense. I just learned more about life origin from this video than in my entire 62 years including a college degree in animal science.

@@ExtantFrodo2 You are correct in that we are trying to produce in a lifetime what nature required millions of years of chance occurrence to finally achieve. You cannot deny the time scales involved.
I could watch this again with popcorn! My own 2 cents, as a layman: I could be wrong, but I'm not aware of any natural force (gravity, heat, etc.), that doesn't contribute to entropy. Just on that basis, I can't fathom how the complex functionality (putting it mildly) of biological life could have arisen by sheer, unconscious accident, naturally, in an environment otherwise devoid of any biological life yet. Thanks, Dr. Tour!
You are like someone who wins the lottery, and says "I can't think how this could have happened by sheer, unconscious accident. There are so many people it could have been, how could it turn out to be _me?"_
@@ColonelFredPuntridge Totally flawed analogy that completely ignores the point about entropy and strawmans it right into the ignorant misunderstanding of probability that you hoped it was. For your example to reflect the person's actual point, you would have to have won the lottery without ever buying a ticket.
@@ColonelFredPuntridge Win the lottery with these odds? Well you are certainly optimistic. Dr. Gerlald Schroeder, MIT Top 5 Scientific Myths popularly accepted as fact: Myth #5. “Very occasionally monkeys hammering away at typewriters will type out one of Shakespeare’s sonnets.” Not true, not in this universe. But it is a popular assumption that the monkeys can do it, a wrong assumption that randomness can produce meaningful stable complexity. But let’s look at the numbers to see why the monkeys will always fail. I’ll take the only sonnet I know, sonnet number 18, “Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day …” All sonnets are 14 lines, all about the same length. This sonnet has approximately 488 letters (neglect spaces). With a typewriter or keyboard having 26 letters, the number of possible combinations is 26 to the exponential power of 488 or approximately ten to the power of 690. That is a one with 690 zeros after it. Convert the entire 10 to the 56 grams of the universe (forget working with the monkeys) into computer chips each weighing a billionth of a gram and have each chip type out a billion sonnet trials a second (or 488 billion operations per second) since the beginning of time, ten to the 18th seconds ago. The number of trials will be approximately ten to power of 92, a huge number but minuscule when compared with the 10 to power 690 possible combinations of the letters. We are off by a factor of ten to power of 600. The laws of probability confirm that the universe would have reached its heat death before getting one sonnet. We will never get a sonnet by random trials, and the most basic molecules of life are far more complex than the most intricate sonnet. As reported in the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times and the Chicago Tribune, when the world’s most influential atheist philosopher, Antony Flew, read this analysis of complexity and several analyses related to the complexity of life brought in my third book, The Hidden Face of God, and Roy Varghese’s excellent book, The Wonder of the World, he abandoned his errant belief in a Godless world and publically apologized for leading so many persons astray for the decades that his atheistic thoughts held sway.
Thank you Dr. Tour. You explained something that has been overlooked for years. It is amazing to think that most people believe what they see in movies and from experts. Maybe some reject truth because it doesn't fit their world view. I once had this cognitive dissonance, it took time to dismantle the lies and rebuild my world view from diligent investigating and research. Now I am in awe how God did it. You are doing a great service to humanity. Thanks again for your service!
If this proves something, it proves that the evolution theory is just as blind as any other belief, it's even have higher chance to be wrong! Believing in the Creator makes much more sense.
It’s crazy to see how the common explanation given to this question is made to look so simple We need more honest straightforward experts like this man to be given more attention instead of simplified false or unlikely narratives
Why do you even assume anything about it? If one do, one can just assume it to be inevitable instead. Notice, complex processes does not imply complex rules - rather the opposite is true. Also notice, simple rules underlying complex processes can be, and most often is, very hard to discover.
If I understand him correctly, even the Creative Evolution folk have no clue about the complexity involved. If 'life' involved a process of getting from Step A to Step Z, you can't even reach Step A.
I can also quote from books of myth: Hercules' personal problems started literally at birth. Hera sent two witches to prevent the birth, but they were tricked by one of Alcmene's servants and sent to another room. Hera then sent serpents to kill him in his cradle, but Hercules strangled them both.

He does, he will accuse Christians of using a "God of the gaps fallacy" . It's atheists' favorite argument against theists. I call it the "assumption of god of the gaps fallacy fallacy": accusing Christians who poke genuine holes in weak scientific theory of using the God of the gaps fallacy.
As Dr. Dawkins is an evolutionary biologist, he has not tried to find an answer. Even Dr. Tour exposed the stupidity of your comment in the beginning of this video.
I love it that science proves the existence of an entity possessing the intelligence and abilities to not only create life forms but to create a physical universe for it all to take place in. There are no natural systems. Everything is designed and built to arrive at what we experience as reality.
The greatest that ever lived; He had no servants, yet they called Him Master. He had no degree, yet they called Him Teacher. He had no medicines, yet they called Him Healer. He had no army, yet Kings feared Him. He won no military battles, yet He conquered the world. He had no crime, yet they crucified Him. He had no need, yet He forgave them as they mocked. He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today. His name is Jesus Christ and He is the Saviour of the world.
What makes this particularly refreshing is: Not only does he know what he's talking about... but he's actually saying it. He's not putting his popularity or paycheck first, as many scientists do. Many of them know these things but are afraid to say it publicly because they know scientists who dare speak the truth about Intelligent Design are treated like they commited heresy.
"We need to make this viral!" As in COVID-19 viral? Pass "thanks" on to god for creating Covid for us, would ya? Because if Evolution didn't do it, then certainly god did, right!
The most amazing presentation I have ever seen on UA-cam. This excellent scientist has just dispelled years of crap that has been fed to me by the Richard Dawkins types. Thank you Doctor.
I’ve been saying this for years. Darwin’s theory is excellent at explaining how life adapts to its surroundings. But it’s a logical fallacy to apply the theory to the origin of life.
I’ve been blown away ever since I first came across Dr. Tour. My wish is to see him on a debate stage exposing the propaganda of the “settled science” but I completely understand why no one wants to step up. It would be like lambs to the slaughter. 😁 ...53 thumbs down but not one comment of refutation. 🤦🏻♂️
I started listening to him a couple of years ago, and have been continually promoting him SINCE! More people need to be aware of him, and show their SUPPORT, for courageous & open-minded men like him, who refuse to march lockstep to the Materialist / Naturalist world-view. And instead chose to follow the evidence, WHEREVER it leads - even if it points toward a designing intelligence!
I am an engineering student working towards my BA and masters so I’m not qualified to really comment on this but it truly fascinates me how a great chunk of science is based on a non proven theory. I’m going to look much deeper into this topic and maybe switch careers later from physics essentially to chemistry and biology. Thank you for this information worth more than gold!
When great men speak out and with such an in depth knowledge for his subject, you would be completely crazy not to listen, and digest every priceless word!
With so many aethists just spitting out half truths, outward lies and sheer speculation, it's such a blessing to have Dr. Tour explain in intricate detail the truth of scientific reality.
10 to the 79 Billion is a very large number. I did some quick tests and calculations. Filling up an 8.5x11 page in MS Word (defaults, with Times 12 point and single line spacing) I fit 3354 zeroes on 1 page. Laying out the 25.5 million pages, edge-to-edge, that it would take to hold the rest of the 79 billion zeroes would cover 320 acres.

Abiogenesis has nothing to do with evolution . Evolution unlike abiogenesis is widely accepted and explains life coherently but has no comment on the origin of life. This scientist himself believes in evolution
I love Tour's statement regarding the evolutionists' favorite claim, "given enough time, anything's possible". Tour says that TIME is the enemy, not the friend of evol....
Some highly qualified comments below. I want to just say; even if the impossibility of a protein forming in a pre bio soup occurred, tour points out that the harsh environment would destroy it before it could link up to create a cell, let alone reproduce or evolve.
The first chapter of my first biology class in college was a review of the biogenesis versus abiogenesis debate. There was plenty of smirking at the abiogenesis faction for believing that mice could be generated from rotting rags and straw. Ultimately they point to Pasteur’s beef broth experiment as the nail in the coffin of abiogenesis. The last two sentences of the chapter have always stuck with me: “And thus it was conclusively proven once and for all that life does not arise from non-life. Except for one time when I did. “
Excellent discussion...thank you. It is unfortunate that "Our age is so poisoned by lies that it converts everything it touches into a lie." (S. Weil 1921)
"...He commanded and they were created." (Psalm 148:5) I love how Dr. Tour begins by answering every question in a calm voice and by the time he's explained, he's not as calm...very passionate about his field of science, clearly!
First of all, greetings and respect from Tunisia to this rock solid mind... Second, I have friends in Chemistry, in biology, they have Phd's and they know nothing about what they do only what they learned, and nothing beyond that !!! I learn a lot from this man more than my friends! again, thank you Mr Tour
Thank Allah I am a muslim. I Believe God be praised created us. Thanks for the scientist. Allah said in the Qura'n that scientists know Him more than the other people do.
No comments yet, Wow! This is groundbreaking and reignites so many philosophicaly fundamental questions of claims on how everyone and everything just came out of nothing with no intelligent intervention.
It's really cutting-edge INDEED! I'm sure you'll enjoy this quote Mukarram: "All of us have to choose the presuppositions with which we start. There are not many options - essentially, just two. Either human intelligence ultimately owes its origin to mindless matter or there is a Creator. It is strange that some people claim that it is their intelligence that leads them to prefer the first over the second" (John Lennox).
Ground breaking? What ground did he break? He is just preaching his evidence-free opinion based on creationism. This is as far from ground breaking as one can get. IF he did some actual experiment that backed his hypothesis that might be interesting - but he didn't. He didn't do any of value and none of it was new. Ground breaking? I don't think you understand the term.
No. Someone lying about science should be kept well away from children trying to learn science! Keep the creationists in church where they can't infect others
Except his entire argument is we don’t know therefore god. It’s just another iteration of the god of the gaps fallacy. It will be interesting to go back and look at this video many years from now when scientists have discovered more about abiogenesis.
"Each year we discover so much more complexity, we are more befuddled now than in 1952 (Watson-Crick.) And in 1952 we were more befuddled than we were in 1859. No wonder Darwin saw it so clearly.
He’s just talking about the physical structures of living organisms and not even touching on the mysterious ‘spark’ that brings that organism to life. A corpse has all the structures but is still not alive. The mystery is beyond us and requires the divine touch as expressed in Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel masterpiece.
"The mystery is beyond us and requires the divine touch" is a dogma. There are many hundreds of proper scientists looking for the answers to the question: "What are the origins of life?" It's been less than 100 years since we have had the tools needed to explore this meaningfully. I think probably in my own lifetime the scientific community will have the answer.

These are the kind of scientists who deserve to be followed and respected, not the likes of Dawkins and Krause who have brought no benefit to humanity except for myths and stupid assumptions.
The thing that really gets me are the motor proteins that move supplies around the cell. Look up the little kinesin molecule, which literally (LITERALLY) walks along the newly formed microtubules in the cell with its load. Mind-boggling stuff, and just one example of His intelligence, love and care. Praise Him!!

As an engineer with over 40 years of experience in designing things and actually making them work - when I study all the sciences, I see overwhelming evidence of design by a Creator with perfect knowledge and understanding of all things, infinite intelligence, creativity and wisdom and unlimited power and ability. Life is far more sophisticated than our most advanced technology. There is no scientific basis whatsoever for the naive idea that life originated by the operation of purely natural laws.
Hi Sabyis. Is there any scientific evidence that life originated outside of the action of physical laws? [On the other hand, amino acids form stably out in space, and occasionally reach Earth as meteorites. And some nuclei acids form in simple Urey type plasma experiments. Gold has apparently shown that a huge variety of cyclic hydrocarbons form deep in the Earth, and can thermodynamically migrate to the surface.] I see that Tour understands that abiogenesis is a tough field these days, but what would you say are compelling reasons to believe that biology, which so apparently operates via physical laws, started in some fashion beyond physical laws?
@@SystemsMedicine Great question! I was entirely convinced that scientists would be creating life in the laboratory even as recently as 2 years ago; 72 years of belief, trashed by solid logic. One of the more interesting discoveries, by Dr. Jennifer Blank, et al. (and I don't remember the year), proved that simple, high-speed collision added molecular complexity to simple amino acids riding on meteorites.
*_But consider this logic:_* At no time in our scientific investigations have *_Random Processes_* resulted in organized, functional structure. We have crystals, but they serve absolutely no function beyond themselves.
Consider what it would take for nature, in the desert, with volcanic eruptions, to end up producing a "magma red," Mercedes Benz, SL500, with tires, engine, drive train, and a full tank of gasoline. We don't find hundreds of failed attempts of this strewn across the desert. The same can be said about assembling the building blocks of life. *_Random accident does NOT end up producing organized anything._*
I strongly encourage you to see Dr. Tour's series on Abiogenesis. Riveting logic! The 4 building blocks he mentions, some of which are formed in mutually *_Exclusive_* environments, are far more prone to make the wrong chemical connections than the right ones. So, let us say you have one properly made protein, which is as likely as 1 chance in 10^100, and you need thousands more of the same molecule. But then the protein decays in hours, and you have to wait several Billion, Trillion, or Quadrillion years for the accident to produce another ONE such molecule. But then, you need the Lipids, Sugars and more to occur within the same narrow window of *_HOURS._* But a far more daunting challenge is one of proper assembly of all these *_unlikely_* building blocks. What accidents within random nature would push just the right lipids into position to form the bi-layer bubble which is the outer wall of the cell?
BUT the most difficult challenge involves the *_information_* which organizes not only the machines which rearrange the building blocks of life, but maintains the information which tells the life how to build itself, to reorganize nutrients to grow the cell, and then to replicate and split the cell.
*_Randomness AND Time_* are the ENEMIES of life forming in the first place. And the fact that the information so crucial to DNA and RNA are NOT found anywhere in nature outside of life itself means that life could not start by accident -- *_anywhere in the universe._*
*_Therefore,_* if God formed life for only one purpose -- to redeem His non-physical children (NOT the bodies they wear) -- then there is likely only one planet out of several sextillion planets which contains life. In other words, an *_Empty Universe!_* And the inner *_Trekkie_* died the moment I realized that we would never see Klingons or Vulcans.

As an engineer your outlook is very deterministic and the idea of mutation followed by selection is very alien to you, hence your skepticism. Given enough time these mechanisms can generate complexity. I assume you’ve come across genetic algorithms in computer science, if not they offer a very simple example of this idea in operation.

I do this out of love but James Tour is a Christian that has met Christ. You can view his testimony here: ua-cam.com/video/QNGLZvtRoiU/v-deo.html
Christ died on the Cross for your sins and on the third day rose from the dead and appeared to many people; this was to conquer death. It is also regarded as a historical fact by academic historians that Jesus died on the cross regardless of their religious beliefs.
We need more scientists like James Tour, open and sincere and with guts to tell what they really think!
Very refreshing, almost gives hope that science could one day no longer be abused and manipulated for political purposes and just be used for discovery.
JamesB well said
You mean like it was originally?
There is no sane individual, good or evil, who wants his own scientists to lie to him about their discoveries. This is so because knowledge is power. In our world, it is the secretive wealthy who pull the strings of the political puppets they own, it is the secretive wealthy who control what info, what truth and what lies get published by the journalistic enterprises which they own. It's not science, rather, it is we, whose knowledge about science is gained only via the distorting lens of the media, who are "abused and manipulated for political purposes"!

Wow, im not only impressed with the wisdom contained in this video, but also in the comment section, for a change, and it includes even educated people.
I say " even " educated people because I've had too many debates with people who have degrees in science but don't really understand what real science is. They think because they were taught it, it must be true ( science ). They don't understand the differences between proof, evidence, and simple hypothesis. They don't see how some scientists are very bias ( including themselves ) and ignore evidences against their unproven beliefs. They think anyone who disagrees with the commonly held beliefs aren't good scientists and heaven forbid that anyone who doesn't have a degree in science shows them the logical fallacies , suppressed evidence, leaps of logic, and hypothesis presented as proven fact involved in certain fields of study.
Education does not equal intelligence. Some educated people are too proud of what they know ( and sometimes what they know isn't even true ) and not humbled by what they do not know.
The whole ID claim is biased to divine intervention. It’s not science. Nuff said.
At last a man who is not scared to stand up and tell the truth. Good for you sir

I could watch this again with popcorn! My own 2 cents, as a layman: I could be wrong, but I'm not aware of any natural force (gravity, heat, etc.), that doesn't contribute to entropy. Just on that basis, I can't fathom how the complex functionality (putting it mildly) of biological life could have arisen by sheer, unconscious accident, naturally, in an environment otherwise devoid of any biological life yet. Thanks, Dr. Tour!

Top 5 Scientific Myths popularly accepted as fact:
Myth #5. “Very occasionally monkeys hammering away at typewriters will type
out one of Shakespeare’s sonnets.”
Not true, not in this universe. But it is a popular assumption that the monkeys can do it, a wrong assumption that randomness can produce meaningful stable complexity. But let’s look at the numbers to see why the monkeys will always fail. I’ll take the only sonnet I know, sonnet number 18, “Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day …” All sonnets are 14 lines, all about the same length. This sonnet has approximately 488 letters (neglect spaces). With a typewriter or keyboard having 26 letters, the number of possible combinations is 26 to the exponential power of 488 or approximately ten to the power of 690. That is a one with 690 zeros after it. Convert the entire 10 to the 56 grams of the universe (forget working with the monkeys) into computer chips each weighing a billionth of a gram and have each chip type out a billion sonnet trials a second (or 488 billion operations per second) since the beginning of time, ten to the 18th seconds ago. The number of trials will be approximately ten to power of 92, a huge number but minuscule when compared with the 10 to power 690 possible combinations of the letters. We are off by a factor of ten to power of 600. The laws of probability confirm that the universe would have reached its heat death before getting one sonnet. We will never get a sonnet by random trials, and the most basic molecules of life are far more complex than the most intricate sonnet. As reported in the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times and the Chicago Tribune, when the world’s most influential atheist philosopher, Antony Flew, read this analysis of complexity and several analyses related to the complexity of life brought in my third book, The Hidden Face of God, and Roy Varghese’s excellent book, The Wonder of the World, he abandoned his errant belief in a Godless world and publically apologized for leading so many persons astray for the decades that his atheistic thoughts held sway.

This guy is honest and sincere. He is out of the box.
Thank you Dr. Tour. You explained something that has been overlooked for years. It is amazing to think that most people believe what they see in movies and from experts. Maybe some reject truth because it doesn't fit their world view. I once had this cognitive dissonance, it took time to dismantle the lies and rebuild my world view from diligent investigating and research. Now I am in awe how God did it. You are doing a great service to humanity. Thanks again for your service!
If this proves something, it proves that the evolution theory is just as blind as any other belief, it's even have higher chance to be wrong! Believing in the Creator makes much more sense.
Not only makes more sense!
It is the sanity itself!!
It's the only way..
So basically
"science involves too much thinking so god" 🤣🤣🤣
Science is built on evidence, a god belief on faith. In an emergency I think I’d trust science.
It’s crazy to see how the common explanation given to this question is made to look so simple
We need more honest straightforward experts like this man to be given more attention instead of simplified false or unlikely narratives
Agree. There is no shame in simply saying that “we don’t know” or “we humans simply aren’t intelligent enough to sort all this out”.
everytime i study biochemical pathways i get chills , its so complex and so beautiful , i doubt all of that is intially just the product of randomness
Why do you even assume anything about it? If one do, one can just assume it to be inevitable instead. Notice, complex processes does not imply complex rules - rather the opposite is true. Also notice, simple rules underlying complex processes can be, and most often is, very hard to discover.
If I understand him correctly, even the Creative Evolution folk have no clue about the complexity involved. If 'life' involved a process of getting from Step A to Step Z, you can't even reach Step A.
I am a molecular biochemist I admit creation is the only way.
Now prove there is a creator!
Honest and brave. Thank you. I almost have no confidence in the academia now. Thank you that I know there are still people with integrity in there.

Hello,
Dr Tour is a Christian. If you're interested you can watch his testimony here:
ua-cam.com/video/QNGLZvtRoiU/v-deo.html
Kind regards
@@cnault3244 doesn’t apply to Christianity so irrelevant
It's nice to see Muslims and Christians agreeing on at least this topic.

{Say: "It (this Quran) has been sent down by Him (Allah) (the Real Lord of the heavens and earth) Who knows the secret of the heavens and the earth. Truly, He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."} [The Noble Qur'an, Surah The Criterion verses 5-6].
In short you are not the first to say this, this is way of the ones that disbelieve in the Qur'an and the previous scriptures.
Once I heard Mishio Kaku say : "God is the best Chemist, engineer, physicist and mathematic"
Richard Dawkins has absolutely no answer to this.
He does, he will accuse Christians of using a "God of the gaps fallacy" . It's atheists' favorite argument against theists. I call it the "assumption of god of the gaps fallacy fallacy": accusing Christians who poke genuine holes in weak scientific theory of using the God of the gaps fallacy.
As Dr. Dawkins is an evolutionary biologist, he has not tried to find an answer. Even Dr. Tour exposed the stupidity of your comment in the beginning of this video.
Thank you, Dr. Tour. You are a gift in this world of mush.
I love it that science proves the existence of an entity possessing the intelligence and abilities to not only create life forms but to create a physical universe for it all to take place in. There are no natural systems. Everything is designed and built to arrive at what we experience as reality.
Point me to this “proof”. If proof existed, then faith wouldn’t be required.
My heart does backflips listening to him, even though my body is old and disabled!
Almighty God. To Him belong all praise, glory, and worship!! Will Mr. Tour be invited to present this at T.E.D.?
The greatest that ever lived; He had no servants, yet they called Him Master. He had no degree, yet they called Him Teacher. He had no medicines, yet they called Him Healer. He had no army, yet Kings feared Him. He won no military battles, yet He conquered the world. He had no crime, yet they crucified Him. He had no need, yet He forgave them as they mocked. He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today. His name is Jesus Christ and He is the Saviour of the world.
What makes this particularly refreshing is: Not only does he know what he's talking about... but he's actually saying it. He's not putting his popularity or paycheck first, as many scientists do.
Many of them know these things but are afraid to say it publicly because they know scientists who dare speak the truth about Intelligent Design are treated like they commited heresy.

The most amazing presentation I have ever seen on UA-cam. This excellent scientist has just dispelled years of crap that has been fed to me by the Richard Dawkins types. Thank you Doctor.
Still funny how people like Dawkins stay far away from Abiogenesis.
I’ve been saying this for years. Darwin’s theory is excellent at explaining how life adapts to its surroundings. But it’s a logical fallacy to apply the theory to the origin of life.
I’ve been blown away ever since I first came across Dr. Tour. My wish is to see him on a debate stage exposing the propaganda of the “settled science” but I completely understand why no one wants to step up. It would be like lambs to the slaughter. 😁
...53 thumbs down but not one comment of refutation. 🤦🏻♂️
I started listening to him a couple of years ago, and have been continually promoting him SINCE! More people need to be aware of him, and show their SUPPORT, for courageous & open-minded men like him, who refuse to march lockstep to the Materialist / Naturalist world-view. And instead chose to follow the evidence, WHEREVER it leads - even if it points toward a designing intelligence!
I am an engineering student working towards my BA and masters so I’m not qualified to really comment on this but it truly fascinates me how a great chunk of science is based on a non proven theory. I’m going to look much deeper into this topic and maybe switch careers later from physics essentially to chemistry and biology. Thank you for this information worth more than gold!
When great men speak out and with such an in depth knowledge for his subject, you would be completely crazy not to listen, and digest every priceless word!

With so many aethists just spitting out half truths, outward lies and sheer speculation, it's such a blessing to have Dr. Tour explain in intricate detail the truth of scientific reality.
Excellent analysis, thank you

I'm a biologist and microbiologist. This man speaks truth.
I remember this lesson from evolutionary biology and having all the students look around confused like, "this is the best theory?"
Welcome to reality, the best theory is the one that match all evidence, and that's what abiogenesis is.
Some highly qualified comments below. I want to just say; even if the impossibility of a protein forming in a pre bio soup occurred, tour points out that the harsh environment would destroy it before it could link up to create a cell, let alone reproduce or evolve.
The first chapter of my first biology class in college was a review of the biogenesis versus abiogenesis debate. There was plenty of smirking at the abiogenesis faction for believing that mice could be generated from rotting rags and straw. Ultimately they point to Pasteur’s beef broth experiment as the nail in the coffin of abiogenesis. The last two sentences of the chapter have always stuck with me: “And thus it was conclusively proven once and for all that life does not arise from non-life. Except for one time when I did. “
Pasteur's beef-broth experiment lasted how long - a few weeks? And how much volume was in it?
Excellent discussion...thank you. It is unfortunate that "Our age is so poisoned by lies that it converts everything it touches into a lie." (S. Weil 1921)

It's really cutting-edge INDEED! I'm sure you'll enjoy this quote Mukarram: "All of us have to choose the presuppositions with which we start. There are not many options - essentially, just two. Either human intelligence ultimately owes its origin to mindless matter or there is a Creator. It is strange that some people claim that it is their intelligence that leads them to prefer the first over the second" (John Lennox).
Ground breaking? What ground did he break? He is just preaching his evidence-free opinion based on creationism. This is as far from ground breaking as one can get. IF he did some actual experiment that backed his hypothesis that might be interesting - but he didn't. He didn't do any of value and none of it was new. Ground breaking?

Ayo if you can find a video of his testimony, it’s really powerful. Hearing such an intellectual profess his faith so confidently is refreshing
He’s just talking about the physical structures of living organisms and not even touching on the mysterious ‘spark’ that brings that organism to life. A corpse has all the structures but is still not alive. The mystery is beyond us and requires the divine touch as expressed in Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel masterpiece.
So, Frankenstein's monster? Right, just produce Frankenstein's monster and one might have a credible argument for a naturalistic origin of life.
Isn't the point of 'life' not to try to understand it but just to experience it?
"The mystery is beyond us and requires the divine touch" is a dogma. There are many hundreds of proper scientists looking for the answers to the question: "What are the origins of life?" It's been less than 100 years since we have had the tools needed to explore this meaningfully. I think probably in my own lifetime the scientific community will have the answer.
