I am from Sri Lanka and waiting to hear this! God Bless you Professor Tour !

[haleyalbite]

As a PhD non-complete.. Thank you for your testimony.. It brings me to an understanding that I have been missing...

[bjjnut]

Wow.... Doc, I just ran across your work this week, please don't ever stop doing this. Yourself (Chemistry), Kurt Wise (Geology) and Robert Carter (Biology) all have to be gifts from God himself to this age.

[gabzbarker]

Thankyou Dr. Tour. I’m also a fan of Stephen Meyer...Intelligent Design....

Dear Dr James, you have been providing the very solid clue on the origin of life.
You must be another gift God give us in this dark era.

[KevinKilgorepage]

My faith is not based on science, but I really do appreciate men like this who reinforce the reality that many scientist are disingenuous at best and liars at worst, all for funding and fame. Some are little more than snake oil salesmen and we desperately NEED for some of our most learned people to come forward in this discussion. Thank you Sir

I love how passionate and aggressive he is, yet with a true loving heart for the Lord and individuals he is trying to reach.

[dougg]

You brought me to tears doc! I was lost but I’m coming home .

My takeaway from 1.5 hours of Dr James Tour brilliance... "YOU CANT JUST DO THIS UNDER A ROCK!!"

[nosegrindv]

The only time that complex molecules self assemble is when James Tour gives them a stern look with his eyebrows.

1:08:50 - "Evolutionists are the greatest story tellers in the world. . . _'a change here, a change here, a change here, and then this happened'_ . As soon as you start probing for detail, everything starts withering around the edges. And when you ask them again about it, they start talking about another story." James Tour know their m.o. well.

[midnighthymn]

Tour absolutely crushed it. He expressed so many of the same frustrations I've also had with the scientific community.

[JohnnyAnderson]

God bless this man and his family!
You have no Idea how much of a blessing you have been to me and mine!

[poppyneese]

You are fearfully and wonderfully made, created, designed!!! Praise the Creator!!!🙏🙏🙏 I listen to the esteem Professor Tour and I realize, I’m not smart enough to even know how wonderfully made I am and you are. Thank You God for Doctor Tour!!!

It is more logical at this point to conclude that an intelligent agent is required for life.

[WIJESINGHEARIYAKUMAR]

The Bible says "but God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong". But that does not seem always the case. Look at Dr. Tour.Lord chose him and blessed him so that he has become a pillar which cannot be pulled down. Contrary to the popular belief he does not speak about Intelligent Design in the origin of life. He simply critiques (a detailed analysis and assessment of something, especially a literary, philosophical, or political theory) the theories and claims by evolutionary biologists, and other relevant scientists, which are presented to the world as proven facts and ultimate truths. No wonder only a very few ( less than three to my knowledge) scientists even dare to debate him ( or rather come to a face to face discussion) on this subject.

[ronaldmorgan]

James, I was listening to one of your main detractors about a week ago, and when I made some comments to the presentation (about your view on the ability for nature to make cells) I got thoroughly attacked--even by the presenter. Apparently they do not like someone challenging their views. I was more than willing to be proven wrong, but there was no attempt to do that. Sure, you don't know everything, but neither do they, and I surely was not convinced by the presentation.

[ogmakefirefiregood]

My son is a very smart kid. I hope this lecture makes him think about some of the "education" he has been exposed to in public schools. I want you to know the truth son! God is real and will hold men accountable to His law.

[ThomAnno]

South Africa. Proud supporters of Intelligent Design!

Great lecture Dr. Tour! I was very pleased to see how animated you get and the quality of the information you delivered. Confronting the mainstream consensus is very admirable. Your a genius! God Bless!
