How Math Refutes Materialism & Points To GOD (Brilliant!)

Dr. Stephen Meyer went on Ben Shapiro's Sunday Special to discuss where materialism breaks down mathematically...

Agnostic here. I have to say that this breakdown of the mathematical argument for intelligent design is probably the most serious and convincing argument for God I've ever encountered on the Internet.

Every time i hear Ben talk i have to check my playback speed isn't on 2x

"Do you know who fixed it's dimensions, or who measured it with a line?" Job 38 5. Great discussion, praise Elohim!

Cool to see Saul Goodman becoming a contributing member of society.

In all seriousness, great talk. Really enjoyed it.

Please have a show about the Flagellar Motor (if you haven't already had one).

The idea of anything mechanical happening inside a bacteria never occurred to me. Not just mechanical but with extreme complexity and efficiency. The motor can spin up to 100K rpm and is fully reversible ... driven by the electrical potential difference between two membranes.

Amino acids form complex gear-like shapes ... essentially a ring gear with numerous pinions to deliver torque to the flagellum. It's truly astounding.

Well, as an agnostic, this is an extremely compelling argument supporting an intelligent design of life.

One of the best indications for the existence of a creator is the achievements of those who were devout Christians; Tycho Brahe, Kepler and Newton, Faraday and Maxwell, and Nikola Tesla, . The founders of the Constitution all believed in God and affirmed this in the preamble which states; "endowed by their Creator".

Whenever I see Meyer talk his stillness is impressive. Nothing surprises him and that suggests he has considered much already.

Stephen Meyer has been an excellent source of reality regarding creation. He also shows how impossible it is for a protein molecule to randomly create itself. Very good!

12:18 i have talked to people that don’t think God exists, I found that in reality they are angry with God. When you loose a loved one, it’s very easy to be angry with God but in reality he has a plan for you and unfortunately part of that plan is to go through trials. Don’t be angry with God, don’t try to answer the question of why. You need to trust that God knows what’s best for you. I lost my father at 17 years old, no one should loose their father that young. But what got me through my grief is my faith that everything will work out eventually. I just had to look at the big picture.

Thank you, Brandon for your YouTube videos I can’t tell you how many times I have felt down and tired with life’s challenges and then I watch a couple of your videos and my spirit is restored. Your enthusiasm and dedication to spreading the good news is very uplifting. Keep up the good work thank you thank you thank you.

Stephen Meyer is a pleasure to listen to. God bless this man 🙏🏼✝️

The hardest, most challenging college course I ever took was molecular biology. Even the simplest, most basic-seeming components of life are broken down to more and more complex systems that can be unbelievably difficult to grasp. Taking this class surely deepened by faith in a roundabout way.

Mathematicians have been way ahead of the Physicists regarding the Universe. Once again, they have dared to go where no Scientist would ever dare to venture.

Isnt it amazing how God just keeps showing himself. No matter how the hard atheist try to disprove God, he just keeps showing himself in all we do and all we

Put another way it is more likely that this takes place:
1) If you were to write down a list of numbers from 1 to 52 on a page
2) Beside each number you write down an unique playing card that you just thought of. No duplicates. All unique. In any order that you choose.
3) And then allow someone who has never seen your list is to fairly shuffle a deck of playing cards and place it in front of you.
4) As you turn each card up from the shuffle deck it would perfectly match your list. The first card turned up matches the first card on your list. The second card you turn up matches the second card on your list. Etc. All the way through to the 52nd card.
5) The odds are one in eight followed by 67 zeros that this could happen.
The universe is only 4.3 seconds old followed by 17 zeros.
You are far more likely to have the playing cards come out in your order then the gene pool is to randomly coming out with a code that supports life (followed by 77 zeros).
In other words, you being here is probably not a random event but one planned out ahead of time.

DDW! Stephen C. Meyer blew my mind when I was first introduced to him, when interviewed by Piers Morgan.
I got so excited hearing him speak in favor of God! He is a philosophy of science!
Your video today gives to those that follow the Bible and spread the Gospels, 'a silver bullet' in which to use it as a homerun for God!
Always enjoy your content! May God continue to bless and protect you and yours!

*Question for Christians:*
I'm an atheist. I didn't arrive as an atheist because I was "rebelling" against God or "rejecting" God.
I don't believe in God for the same reason Christians don't believe in Krishna.
You are not rebelling against or rejecting Krishna, you just think Krishna is made up.
I feel the same about the Christian God, I just think He is made up.

Isn't your own disbelief in Krishna the same as my disbelief in God?
I feel like I'm more indifferent about God rather than actively rebelling against or rejecting God

Had to rewind a few times to understand some concepts and numbers. But it's a great thought-provoking talk. loved it.

[davidhenning]

Thanks for posting. Meyer really lays out the problem of probability very well here.
