Don't automatically assume his book is correct though. There are many more brilliant educated minds than his who accept from the evidence that the Bible is correct.

@@andrewdouglas1963 What exactly do you mean by "the bible being correct "? The world being created in six days by a supernatural entity six thousand years ago perhaps? Name one of these more educated and intelligent people.

@@andrewdouglas1963 Darling..the Bible is no different from Harry Potter or Great Expectations. It is a book. I do wonder what crisis happened to you that you need a silly old book written by hundreds of shepherds 2000 years ago and translated and edited 893 times .... to tell you how to live your life. It is very strange.

@@jamesjack6769 Hi James. The original Hebrew word for day is YOM. Yom in the ancient Hebrew language does not necessarily mean one 24 hour day. It also means a period of time. So the Bible claims god created the universe in 6 stages or time periods. Astrophysicist Dr Hugh Ross shows how what we know about the formation of our universe correctly ties with the biblical account. You've lost me on the second point about the world being created 6 thousand years ago. Could you please reference exactly where in the Bible this is claimed? Two excellent highly qualified intelligent people that spring immediately to mind are Dr Hugh Ross as mentioned above and James Tour. There are thousands more including most Nobel prize winners who identify as Christian. You just need to do a simple Google search for them.

Something in Krauss's nature that causes him to interrupt people. I put it down to a problem in his childhood. He is by far, the world's greatest interrupter !

Why? Just because Fry is exceedingly articulate, does not mean that what he says is true. I like Fry, but I've heard him talk complete nonsense from time to time, when he happens to touch on a field of knowledge in which I have some competence. This is something Krauss is not guilty of often, because unlike Fry, he doesn't step outside his sphere of competence all the time. When Lawrence Krauss talks about physics, you had better listen, because he is an undoubted expert. In which field is Stephen Fry an undoubted expert?

@@DieFlabbergast Yes it's true that being articulate doesn't automatically grant you a position of authority. Still, in this conversation Fry is interrupted at almost every sentence which makes the entire video barely watchable.

@@DieFlabbergast I'd say he has relative expertise in philosophy, history and literature amongst other things and above all an interesting thought process, hence his long term position on QI

It is anything but effortless. Very few things he says are not things he has thought hard about how to say. It takes that work and preparation plus being a special type of genius to speak the way he does ;)

Awful is what Fry and Krauss are. "The humanist view of the meaning of life is different. Humanists do not see that there is any obvious purpose to the universe, but that it is a natural phenomenon with no design behind it. Meaning is not something out there, waiting to be discovered, but something we create in our own lives." Stephen Fry Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space, and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it. We can't even get science without God. The laws of nature only can come from a Lawgiver, God. Only mindless people believe Fry.

I mean no disrespect to you but you summed it up. Believing answers your need want and desire. Without it you have to face a hard reality. So humans wish and hope for help. it is natural. I often wonder if i let go and wanted, wished and desired would i believe.. But i cannot as logic reason and common sense come crashing back to me in a nano second. I went through that with my Dad when he died of cancer in Feb 2020. He like me was not religious and told me he had a good life. he was 94. I can deal with the reality of life and death I have seen so much being in the armed forces like my Dad. Hope you get a favourable outcome with your mum.

There is never anything funnier than when the religious attempt to prove the existence of their sky wizard by quoting science, especially when they have only the most tenuous grasp of the principles they attempt to use. I see also that, as usual, the rather ill understood scientific explanations of the sky wizard are ended with an insult, indicating, again as usual, that you _have_ no arguments, and therefore present some nonsense and then suggest that not believing it indicates some malformation of mind. Your somewhat child like understanding of the second law of thermodynamics and how it relates to what we can see right now, indicates that perhaps you better take another look at the information you have available to you. This action will help you understand better for the next time you want to make a (albeit still ridiculous) attempt to use science to prove the existence of your sky wizard.

Like our 'law enforcers' should be 'peace officers', and quit telling themselves they've got the most dangerous job. Statistics and their guns put that to bed!💖✌😷🎃

I bet you ignore all the facts about religion though...

Fusion Reactor did you really just put the words “Facts” & “Religion” in the same sentence? That’s exactly why there have always been so many different theological views in the world, none & I mean absolutely NONE of them can produce a single shred of objective evidence to be called facts. So each has its own “belief” system and those systems divide in to factions that differ on that particular belief system. Faith is belief without evidence

@@kingdemon26 Facts as in the fact that religion is not based on facts. It's purely fables from mostly unknown authors cobbled together thousands of years ago that are supposedly open to any interpretation that you choose.

Fusion Reactor got it 👍🏾 though you were another one who had completely shut down critical thinking in favor of theism. You read my name and thought I was a child marrying, suicidal theist😂 Na bro I’m a n***a from “the hood” who is scientifically literate and uses critical thinking, logic, and reason. (Well I must admit I use it now, did a lot of time for not using it🤔” Anyway sorry bro wrong stereotype 😂

being released tonight.

You're some empty choir then listening to those two. "The humanist view of the meaning of life is different. Humanists do not see that there is any obvious purpose to the universe, but that it is a natural phenomenon with no design behind it. Meaning is not something out there, waiting to be discovered, but something we create in our own lives." Stephen Fry Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space, and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it. We can't even get science without God. The laws of nature only can come from a Lawgiver, God. Only mindless people believe Fry.

@@2fast2block if believing in fairytales gets you through the day then believe away but don't impose your believe on others.

@@SlowToe you didn't address what I wrote but totally ignored it because you can't get around it. It's what you empty people do.

It is frightening

And yet we were dead for billions of years before we were born. Were we scared?

Yes, I believ religion is a form of "whistling in the dark". Its no coincidence that some folks start going to church in late life.

For some reason I vastly prefer nothing to all the afterlife options put forward by religion so far.

Before i was born,there was nothing for me......

The sexual harassment bit as well?

Yeah, let Fry talk his nonsense. Krauss needs to keep his nonsense silent and not stop Fry's. "The humanist view of the meaning of life is different.

@@2fast2block No disrespect intended but you talk about science from the perspective that you learnt the bare minimum required to come up with this hypothesis and that's it. More so you claim to be using the scientific method but you obviously want your final answer to be true and therefore push everything to equal it. You came into this process believing in a God and therefore spout a whole bunch of facts which mean there's a God. If we take the very poorly developed and understood two points you made. So I'm purely going to be speaking from the paradigm of what you said. Because as I said you missing a lot of knowledge and insight on these topics and you'll find a lot of scientific research has answered a lot of the rudimentary questions you posing to a lot further a degree then you know. The first point about conservation of energy. Your point being energy cannot be destroy or created and therefore nothing can come from nothing. All we have deducted from your sentiment is that we aren't certain how everything started Your second point on entropy and how everything came from a single point in place and time and that must be God. All we can honestly know from your sentiment is that everything came from a certain space and time. Now both your points if we look at them as valid points and the whole truth and nothing but the truth simply imply that there is gaps in research that need further scrutiny. You however make a huge leap in cognitive functioning in assuming that your made up God somehow will fill these spaces perfectly. That's not scientific research. We could sit here and make up 1000 things that could perfectly answer the question of what could fill those gaps in knowledge. Doesn't mean all thousand answers are true. As I said before you need science to point towards your answer because you've already assumed your God to be true without any reason or logic.

@@Lochlanist "All we have deducted from your sentiment is that we aren't certain how everything started." Blah, blah then you finally touch upon something I covered. We are certain about those laws and you are uncertain by your evidence of you are not certain. I'm not making this up. You are that absurd. "Your second point on entropy and how everything came from a single point in place and time and that must be God." No, here's what I actually wrote, you slanderer... ----The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space, and time were created.--- The 1LT and 2LT shows exactly what I wrote, not what you lie about and can't get around. "but the truth simply imply that there is gaps in research that need further scrutiny." No one who knows how proven those laws are has any doubts about them and knows there are no gaps. The only gap is between your ears. All your blah, blah proved nothing I said to be wrong but it did show how empty you are.

@@2fast2block It's funny how you religious foke always degrade into childish behavior when challenged and name calling. Which always fascinates me cause your faith preeches something else. There appears to be a fragile need to be right about Christianity more than a need to be a Christian. Secondly as stated I wrote that in the frame of your very limited knowledge statement. Not in the frame of reality so forgive me for misquoting what could only be deemed half baked heavily misunderstood scientific facts which are only understood in your head and are only understood because they allow you to feel intelligent in your beliefs in a made up God. More so you still missed the fundemtal point i made. Your weak attempt to use science to prove your God simply shows your admittance that you don't know certain things. You then go on to assume those certain things you don't know are God at play. That's a major leap in logic I know you won't be able to have a logical conversation with this as proved above in that sad reply. I also know you are incapable of having a logical conversation on this because you need your weak stance to stand so you can believe your God is real.

I agree. My religion growing up served it's purpose to me but as I grew older I found i could not connect with it based on the events taking place in the world. Although, it has given me a good foundation a new message is needed to deal with the new world we are now entering into.

@@stuartporter5428 You're funny. Say some stupid shit!

​@@stuartporter5428 There are many religious people that changed their belief after getting a glimpse of logic, why do you think it is that ex religious people are always confirming that they were brainwashed? Google how your brain releases a psychedelic called DMT in near-death situations and educate yourself

@@stuartporter5428 most probably hallucinations and PTSD mate

@@LawnFlamingoPoop shit. You just murdered him.and gave him a near death experience buddy lol

As you believe Hell exists, by the same belief Heaven exists, and all that goes with both. To discover more about both places, Jesus tells us about them from 1st hand experience. From what I’ve learned you won’t have much time for discussion. If I were you, I’d investigate the potential of getting to Heaven any day of the week. We won’t be sitting on clouds playing harps when Jesus return, and there’s a lot to do before then anyway. Hopefully see you there sometime later.

Well it says at the end that you can see the full version on Patreon, so my guess is: money is the reason this one is short. As I understand it, Patreon usually is about paying to get something, and I've never put any money there, mainly because of my current poor financial situation.

If you want video, you can see the full version through Patreon, for a fee ($2 per month). If you just want to hear what they say without seeing them, the full audio version is on KZfaq at kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gpNxqMWdv9KudHU.html

But that host is Lawrence Kraus, who is one of, if not the worlds leading theoretical physicist. I do agree that he is a bit interruptive but atleast he has a great knowledge and viewpoint to add to the conversation :) If you want to see Fry at hes best then check out the debate he has with the catolich church. Christopher Hitchens and Fry together in a debate against a cardinal(or bishop) and ann widdecombe. (a british politician) Enjoy :)

@@steinhogger I take your point.

That's Lawrence Krauss man, show some respect

Personally I was just as interested, if not more, in what Lawrence Krauss, the famous physicist, had to say than what Stephen Fry, the amazing comedian, did.

He doesnt have any ideas.

patreon.com at present.. in a few weeks on youtube

His head is still full of dung though. "The humanist view of the meaning of life is different.

I thought the opposite.

And Stephen is the gentleman and goes with it. He has manners as we are taught being British i suppose :) .... well some of us lol.

@@mkay6089 Indeed.

It's an intelligent discussion. It's a dialogue not a monologue. Thats how intelligent people are. Sort of like a bromance moment..I dont find any issues with it

Are philosophers and 'scientists' any different? There is a major difference between theorists and experiencers. (e.g. those who have had a NDE experience)

@@electricmanist but they generally dont claim to know what they dont. Especially scientists are very upfront about what they dont know. A big part of the scientific method is trying to prove yourself wrong

@@Sebbir While many 'scientists' do not claim to know what they don't, the prevailing scientific paradigm is that life (consciousness) ends upon the death of the body. The 3 dimensional concept reigns supreme! However, the many thousands of people who have experienced a NDE (near death experience- see You Tube), have quite a different story to tell- consciousness does continue after bodily death- indeed it exists separately from the physical body. This alternate concept of reality is hard for 3 dimensionalists to understand or accept.

@Jinn Genie You have so much to learn my friend. It would seem you are so firmly entrenched in the idea of 'modern medical procedures' that such instances have colored you perception and understandings of the essential of life. So, according to your understanding, we are here one day, gone the next, with no value in life's experiences whatsoever.

@Jinn Genie Tell me, do you fast and bow before your god of science two or three times a day ? Your science scriptures must be all encompassing with an exactitude beyond argument. All you need is a pink ribbon to wrap around them and everything is beyond question. How comforting for you ! .

yes.. patreon.com for the video, or any podcast source for the audio.. or youtube as well.. .and in 2 weeks video on youtube.

I would suggest that's a little unfair. I have met him before, during two of his visits to British Columbia, and he is like that away from the camera - he's so enthusiastic about his subjects. It maybe not a good trait for an interviewer, but "interviewer" isn't his major specialty. I would also mention that I've followed Steven Fry's career(s) since I first saw him on Black Adder, and agree with another comment that he is a national treasure.

@@ivorbueb9862 It could also be titled commenters would rather hear an entertainers pedestrian thoughts (yes, I know he is the wonderful stepehen fry) than the brilliant mind of an intellectual and scientific genius.

Rockmyballsplease Yes, I suppose it could, if the writer was going for the Guinness record for "Longest Title On A KZfaq Video".

Rockmyballsplease - if I wanted that, I would have clicked on a video called Lawrence Krauss on Religion. But I didn’t, so....

@@danidejaneiro8378 No, you did even better you clicked on Lawrence Krauss' podcast hosted by who would've guessed: Lawrence Krauss and then you and others complained that Lawrence Krauss had the nerve to speak on his own podcast. There must be no god!
