One of the real problems facing all atheists, particularly those relying on a scientifically informed view, is the problem of entropy: that the universe started out in a state of maximum energy density or 0 (zero) entropy proceeding to decrease in energy density thereafter thus doomed to ever increasing entropy (except for short periods relating to local islands like the solar system arranged around our sun, for example) until it's eventual heat death. The paradox thus exists how was the universe able to arrange itself in the first place into its most energy dense form without an input of some kind (meaning it would require other energy to achieve this original state since it could not be achieved autonomously)? The fact remains, by logical deduction, before the universe came into existence it required an organising cause - which is what one might refer to as God or Allah to give Him His correct name.

_The paradox thus exists how was the universe able to arrange itself in the first place into its most energy dense form_ No, I don't think that's a problem. For one thing, I don't have to explain how the universe exists in order to be an atheist, since atheism has nothing to do with that. I'm an atheist because I haven't seen even *one piece of good evidence* that any gods are real. I'm quite willing to admit that I don't know how the universe began (and neither do you, whether you're willing to admit it or not). This is just more of the "god of the gaps" kind of argument from ignorance, that's all. But second, as far as I know, no one is suggesting that happened. No one knows how the universe "started out." Cosmologists have different ideas about it, but they haven't come to a consensus because it's very hard to get evidence. And *evidence* is how we distinguish reality from delusion and wishful-thinking. But if a god can just... exist, with no explanation required, then so can a "most energy dense form," certainly. In other words, this wouldn't be a paradox _anyway_ because you haven't demonstrated that it _needed_ to "arrange itself." If everything started out in a state of maximum energy density (zero entropy, as you put it), then there's no paradox. Of course, we don't know if that happened, and it's unlikely that the natural laws we see inside of our own local manifestation of spacetime would function the same way outside it or 'before' it (if 'before' even makes sense in that situation). But this seems to be just a god-of-the-gaps kind of argument from ignorance, with an additional claim of a paradox which doesn't seem to exist _at all._ After all, where's the "paradox" in going from maximum entropy to decreasing entropy? But, as I noted earlier, even cosmologists don't know how "the universe started out," so all of this is just speculation, not evidence. Get back to me when you have *one piece of good evidence* that your god isn't just imaginary. Because _that's_ why I'm an atheist. (One piece of good evidence might not be enough to convince me, but it would let me take religious claims _seriously,_ at least. After all, if you don't even have *one,* you have nothing at all.) _before the universe came into existence it required an organising cause - which is what one might refer to as God or Allah_ And what "organizing cause" did your god require? Obviously, if your god can just... exist, with no explanation (and no evidence) required, then so can... whatever there was 'before' the Big Bang (which no one knows, even if we can ask about 'before' in the absence of time).

@@nassar2156 Please forgive me, I am locked into so many comment debates that I have lost track. If you are asking about my statement about the claim in the video that Anthony Flew changed from being an atheist to believing in the Abrahamic God, I can back it up by suggesting you read his book. As I mentioned before, there is much in it that is confused, not least being his poor grasp of modern science. It is this that leads me to think he was beginning to suffer from senility. He admitted that he was unable to do the writing and I suspect that much of what we read is in fact the work of his co-author. But the main point is that he is very clear that he came to believe in a deistic god. i.e. a god who created the universe and then stepped away and who does not get involved in any way. Unless and until scientists can actually prove this idea to be false, which I do not think will be possible, the deistic god is at least plausible and it does not conflict in any way with what we know of the universe, ourselves and our planet. The author of the video claims that Flew came to believe in the Abrahamic God but that is either a bad mistake or a deliberate falsehood. Having now watched other videos by the same author, I think it is more likely a mistake brought on by his own beliefs.

@Patricia Hill I think you need to push CTRL ALT DELETE in order to reset your knowledge about Islam. Many of you pretend to show love of Jesus but in fact are more mean, rude, and treacherous and talking with hate and without knowledge. Before you point out a finger to the beloved Muhammad, you must know first this. He fought for his Freedom of Religion! That is a right that he didn't have at that time, and the Kuraysh Tribe didn't want to give him this right. If I will take from you your freedom of speech how would you feel yourself? Aren't you going to fight for your right? That is exactly what he did! Therefore the tribes wanted to terminate his monotheistic religion by killing him and they asked help from other tribes and also the Jewish tribes who lived in Makkah and Medinah. What would you do if someone tries to oppress you and to kill you so that you can't speak freely ? And yes you will stand up. That is what he did! In his reign of 23 years my beloved prophet was not a warmongering warlord. You need to just put this into perspective and not behave as low IQ dude without any knowledge. He fought about 80 battles where the total casualties on his side were 259 men and on the enemy side 759 men. He had forbidden to kill women, children, old people, fauna, flora , priests, in war! In total there were for all the 80 battles 1018 casualties! Let us compare with next wars, Alexander the great wars; 142000 deaths, Napoleonic wars: 2.000.000. Crusaders wars: 3.000.000. Roman Carthagic wars : 2.000.000. Hitler: .60.000.000. Spanic wars native Americans (Inca Maya Aztec etc):12.000.000 deaths. This proves that our prophet is a true prophet who limited bloodshed compared to the real warmongering idiots who named themselves Christians such as Hitler and Napoleon and others. Do you get the picture? All prophets (David, Jesus, Mozes, Abraham, Noah, Muhammad ) came with One consistent message to mankind: "There is only One Allah, believe in Him and pray to Him". Question, as you said Jesus brings love according to your bible, I don't think so since in, Luke 19:27-28 states: But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them--bring them here and kill them in front of me. '" After Jesus had said this, He went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.…, Have you read well your Bible? Was "killing" the love you meant? Jesus nor Muhammad will never say these words, they were not sent to shed blood of people even if they were unbelievers. When Muhammad entered Makkah the polytheists weren't harmed nor prosecuted, they were free to live. May Allah guide you and us to the right and true path!

@@bradholms6400 Actually I was employing the "chicken and egg" argument: cells depend on a complex cell membrane which must contain all the various cell organelles as well as facilitate various other functions such as gates which transfer nutrients useful for, and waste products produced by, cell chemistry; but cell membranes are built and maintained by proteins made by gene functions, which themselves have extremely complex processes. So you see, cell membranes contain everything required for cell chemistry, but cell membranes are created by the very same cell chemistry. So which came first? The watchmaker thought experiment is all about how such complexity could arise: could something as complex as a pocket watch come into existence by chance, or does it rather suggest a maker? That argument could be made for cells, but even simple cells have a complexity orders of magnitude greater than a simple pocket watch. I agree that the pocket watch is not a great analogy, because a mechanical watch is not a dynamic living, self replicating homeostatic system like a cell. But if you reject the argument, but can't suggest an alternative solution, then surely you must at least remain agnostic with regard to the "maker" hypothesis unless you can definitively rule it out: which noone really can. To claim that cells appeared by chance, without evidence, is itself a belief statement. I don't rule it out: I'm agnostic on the chance argument, but the maker argument seems more plausible in this instance in order to avoid the chicken and egg conundrum. Please bear in mind that this planet is evidently optimal for life: it started very soon after the Earth formed and has persisted for billions of years, so would it be reasonable to assume that life would be a simple or easy process to get going when chance requires a long time to work: to get all the components of cellular activity in the right place, in the right configuration, at the right time, doing the right things to function long enough in an environment which is just right for survival, providing all the right nutrients, all long enough to enable cell reproduction which this chance event seems set up to do? On a stable planet, around a stable star, in a stable solar system with just the right type and size of gas giants which soak up most of the solar system debris which could be harmful to life on earth? The chance theory is so incredibly far fetched when you think about it. But if life got started so soon, apparently with ease, would it not be reasonable to expect the spontaneous appearance of life to continue? Shouldn't life be popping into existence by chance on a fairly regula basis, especially considering how amenable this planet is to life? Yet there is no evidence for the spontaneous creation of life from inorganic materials, beyond the formation of some essential building blocks, such as amino acids. I'm guessing you don't understand just how complex cellular chemistry, indeed cellular anatomy, really is. But if the "watch maker" idea is so bad, what would you suggest as an alternative? Peace!

@@BloggingTheology Thanks, I'm a strong believer that even in this day and age, we have not been left in darkness regarding the greater truth of the reality of life, that the greater truth can even still be found in the day to words we use everyday, if we take the time to con-template them correctly. Noticed a book on etymology you were showing on an earlier video around of the origin of many English words. I have a fascination for words, in fact I go further than this to believe all language are a gauge of our ability to understand the greater truth underpinning existence, that key words hold exavtly that, important keys to unlock the greater truth as a way for seeing the true spiritual reality that is underpinning existence. An example of this the english word 'matter'. We use this word to describe the physical property of all material things. But 'Matter' has another meaning, what matters to us. It can actually be proven that nothing we as humans have ever done happened unless it first mattered to us. So it can be seen that the primary cause of our making things happen, the intentions that matter to the one making it is the primary cause of the physical actions we undertake. Which points to showing the spiritual desire to make or create can be seen as the foundational cause of what is created by us humans. Why then can people not accept that there is an even greater spiritual cause underpinning all creation. That this incredible Uni-verse could not and can not continue to exist without a greater spiritual input and intention causing it to exist. We can see this as the only way our own abilities gives us the capacity to make physical things form in our own reality from the ideas we have. Yet fail to accept this cause and effect for a universe far greater and more complex than anything we could even comprehend making. There are many English words that have deeper meanings that help expressing a deeper insight for thinking beyond the physical reality. Just a thought to share. I'm happy to share the many I have found if interested.

Also consider this verse 4:31 "If you avoid the worst of what you are forbidden, We will remit your sins, and admit you by a Gate of Honor." Is there worse than shirk according to Islam? Allah knows how and why humans came to their conclusions and he is the best and fairest judge. To my knowledge Islam also puts strong emphasis especially on the state we leave this world in.

@@BloggingTheology Paul help me. Can some one help me this is not my Question but it was asked to me by a Christian He was saying that if your God in the Quran say that that verses are explained in detail in the Quran itself Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala said: كِتٰبٌ فُصِّلَتْ ءَايٰتُهُۥ قُرْءَانًا عَرَبِيًّا لِّقَوْمٍ يَعْلَمُونَ "A Book whose verses have been detailed, an Arabic Qur'an for a people who know," (QS. Fussilat 41: Verse 3) Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala said: أَفَغَيْرَ اللَّهِ أَبْتَغِى حَكَمًا وَهُوَ الَّذِىٓ أَنْزَلَ إِلَيْكُمُ الْكِتٰبَ مُفَصَّلًا ۚ وَالَّذِينَ ءَاتَيْنٰهُمُ الْكِتٰبَ يَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّهُۥ مُنَزَّلٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّكَ بِالْحَقِّ ۖ فَلَا تَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْمُمْتَرِينَ "[Say], "Then is it other than Allah I should seek as judge while it is He who has revealed to you the Book explained in detail?" And those to whom We [previously] gave the Scripture know that it is sent down from your Lord in truth, so never be among the doubters." (QS. Al-An'aam 6: Verse 114) So her Question was Why doesn't the Quran make that clear? Why is there Absolutely no chronology or point Of reference in the "CLEAR" Quran,making the man made Hadith/tafsir necessary? and the author of the Quran even abrogates it can't Allah make up his/Thier mind? Allah claims to have given the torah yet if you read the torah it is concise in it's chronology,history The Quran on the other hand appears to written by uneducated by group of people who heard jewish,Christian and sabian scriptures from the merchant around mecca and medina, then spent 23 years rewriting them as Arab history. Of course, the Quran you have is descendants From what uthman and his scribe rewrote,so that could be part of the problem.

@Tom Sutherland Depending on how you define it you can also exchange "consciousness" with "the force" from Star Wars and get the same result. Some people are simply dodging into vagueness because that feels like you provide a smaller target that way. But religion is not really so vague if we are honest. Religions claim that they know what the ruler of the universe thinks about our sexuality. If they are suddenly getting vague when they are required to spit some actual facts, this is a sign that they are hiding in vagueness on purpose.

@@AliothAncalagon I have thought about consciousness being but a small part of what we are. I would imagine that 95% of what bodies do, we have no awareness of. For example, do you have any awareness of your uriters transporting urine from the kidneys to the bladder? Do you know HOW your brain works or which muscles lift your hand? Healthy people don't know of such things. Our consciousness runs a very small part of our lives. But why are some people in prison? Because of what they did with their consciousness. Yet their entire body goes to prison, not just the mind or soul. When a king is asleep, nobody fears him until he wakes up. So, I am convinced, that consciousness is the real meaning of what we are. I also wonder, is our individualality real? We come from ancestors, and our parents hope that we give rise to future generations, and a person alone, is completely disfunctional. We are like knots in a net

@@benavraham4397 None of your points is wrong per se. And on some I would agree. But its really important to understand that you have decided here what "the real meaning" is according to YOUR personal point of view. Because "meaning" is no objective property in the first place. You can decide that consciousness gives things meaning. And I would say that there is some truth to that. If you would theoretically only be sleepwalking your entire life without consciously taking part its not hard to convince someone that this can hardly be the "meaning" of our existence. But this is no objective reality. Its the subjective truth of a species that holds active consciousness in very high regard..... because thats its own reality. If you will, its a very selfish perspective. We say that the thing has meaning that we want to have meaning because its what our existence is made of. If our reality would be different, our perspective might be entirely different.

@@AliothAncalagon You push my mind into a corner to understand, and that's fine. I can imagine that from the view of a sea spunge, consciousness, would seem superfulous. But the sea spunge is a component of a larger web of life which does reveal levels of consciousness in its spectrum. From a rock's perspective, is any life at all necessary? Maybe we are selfish to imagine that life is essential. After all, we are all destine to return to the "inanimate." (But I actually, what I believe is that, all is connected and consciennes permiates everything, but is concealed in most of the universe, and revealed life, and in human consciousness most of all).

The difference between pre-Islamic Ramadan and Islamic Ramadan is that pre-Islamic Ramadan was practiced by pagan tribes in Arabia and Islamic Ramadan is practiced by Muslims all over the world. During Ramadan pagan Arabs used to abstain from food, water, sexual contact etc, from dawn to dusk. Muslims practice the same pagan rituals during Ramadan. It is a well-known fact that Islam adapted this pagan practice of fasting. There is a Hadith in Sahih Bukhari that mentions the ritual. Bukhari 5:58:172 - Narrated Aisha: ‘Ashura was a day on which the tribe of Quraish used to fast in the pre-lslamic period of ignorance. The Prophet also used to fast on this day. So when he migrated to Medina, he fasted on it and ordered (the Muslims) to fast on it. When the fasting of Ramadan was enjoined, it became optional for the people to fast or not to fast on the day of Ashura.’ The fasting for Ashura (10th of Muharram) originated from a Quraish pagan practice. Ramadan fasting came later from Sabian tradition. Sabians are mentioned in several verses of the Quran [al-Baqarah 2:62], [al-Hajj 22:17], [al-Maa’idah 5:69] along with Christians and Jewish. Sabians, a non-Muslim Iraqi tribe, believed in monotheism, observed a 30 day fast every year and prayed 5 times a day.

i always lived my life mostly as a thinker, and i always got into theological debates with atheists but i think there is one thing i missed as a thinking theist, and i was running away from all of life it's the psychological and behind it, the source of it, the spiritual aspect i know lot of thinkers will roll their eyes, and i used to be one of them but belief is belief, it's a personal relationship between you and God God isn't a concept you need to think of or defend, it's 1st an experience you need to go thro a journey to find God within your heart those arnt' just some feel good words after i found God within my heart, i no longer need any philosophical proofs it's an experience i live everyday i used to also roll my eye when i see people saying this and say it's subjective, and not objective but same can be said about how blind people can't see nor can describe colors, not matter how much you try to explain it to them God will show you miracles when you prayer for it, each person will have their invidual proof that God is real and isn't some mental construct my journey begin with Jungian psychology, then love and agonizing over a girl who is sick and i loved her from the bottom of my heart that i had to let go of my pride and vanity and pray sincerely to God people who didn't find God didnt let go of their pride, pride will blind you from seeing God

@@moritzfinke4518 let me tell you about my God as a pure experience. In my darkest and saddest times, where I was feeling so depressed and alone and felt all doors were closed, this is when I truly experienced God when I would literally lie down alone in a park crying at night, or just sitting alone and speaking directly to God , asking for his help and support . I would feel sudden deep comfort , I truly felt love , I felt safe as if I was hugged by loving arms but in every cell of my body. That's the closest I can describe it. After these moments I would feel life and hope fill my life again. Then opportunities and good things start to happen and my life got better in many many ways. I never think of ending my life because of my belief in God, as I have no doubt he is always present for me. It feels like deep down I am not afraid of anything bad happening, and even death is fine . I would describe the experience is feeling an omnipotent presence so great but so loving, I think this blissful feeling is paradise or heaven or just pure happiness that every human is deeply longing to feel. Peace and love whoever you are.

I have yet to encountered any phenomenon to be created instantaneously by the sole volition of a deity. Further, I have never encountered any phenomenon that suggest a supernatural explanation.

If there IS a GOD, then he won't keep us in the dark after all the blessings he has bestowed upon us as human beings. And that's why he has sent almost 1.25 lakh messengers over time since the birth of Adam and all the way to the final messenger, Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), with a single commandment and message of monotheism, nothing else. And the irony is, the majority has always gone for polytheism or atheism.

They have certainly become arrogant within themselves and [become] insolent with great insolence. The day they see the angels - no good tidings will there be that day for the criminals, and [the angels] will say, "Prevented and inaccessible."

The "problem of consciousness" is one that many scientist are simply trying to avoid but are now having to face in many different areas of science in order to explain how certain phenomena occurs, they avoid it by using other terminologies like complex systems, emergence and many other words that are simply semantic manuvers to avoid calling it a consciousness a mind or simply God.

believing in a creator is one thing, believing in a god that gets jealous or angry at certain things his creation does, is prone to certain moods, basically displaying all the qualities of a human being such as love and vengeance the way the christian god does is quite another. why imply that he now believes in the christian god? he could easily believe in an aztec god. or even more probably, that he believes theres a creator but not make any assumptions as to its qualities.

In a discussion with an atheist friend of mine, he asked me to provide evidence that God exists. So I offered the complex specified information encoded in DNA as "EVIDENCE of a creating intelligence at the core of our experienced material reality." His response? "Now how would that prove God?" I looked at him confused. "Walt! You asked me for evidence." Funny, rather than engaging my evidence, he warped his request for evidence into a demand for absolute proof.

Personally, (eve as a child) I thought that there just might be a God. I thought that there just might NOT be a god, also. I could argue both sides. I wanted to believe but, all discussion seemed without evidence. Still, I would not reject the possibility. Then, after MANY years and religious opportunities, I had a (very) personal and enthralling experience which gave me the leap of faith that I needed. Because of that, I took the next step (in the dark) and was rewarded with more (personal) experience. Now, I know. There are things which I believe and things which I know. I think that each of us may NEED that very personal experience to truly believe. THIS may be what happened to Anthony Flew.

This is a good first step! Such a "deistic" view can be a step toward real and actual theism. Had Professor Flew more time to think this through completely he would then realize that what we call 'person" or personal understanding (which is irrefutably self-evident to each one reading this) cannot be reduced to an impersonal deity. Hence the 'deistic' conception of God, since impersonal, cannot be the full meaning of God. A personal God is greater than an impersonal god, just as an actual human person person is greater than a robot.Further a truly personal human being, would be greater, at least with respect to being personal, than God which is a patent contradiction. See Anselm's argument!
