   The fact that it is this hard to know that there is god shows there's non. And if a god punishes us for our lack of knowledge or conviction about his extence but not for blatant disobedience, then fk him! He deserves no worship

   Edgy athiests are just as annoying as self righteous/judgmental Christians. Neither are good representations are their supposed beliefs. Both filled with hate, insults, and close minded presumptions. These two men certainly good examples of how mature and rational adults ought to behave with one another.

   I think you should do Roger Penrose. He's an atheist (I believe, or at least an agnostic) and his ideas are very interesting. He outright made the claim the only proof of God science would accept would be an observable signature in the universe, for example encoding of text in the background radiation. At the same time he agrees on the unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics, as well as the antrophic principle, he also makes good points about how the theory of evolution doesn't explain away why we are bizarrely (and illogically) very tuned to understand our universe from a mathematical and physical perspective, even though there is almost no evolutionary benefit to it (and If there are any, they are so marginal they are irrelevant). .To top it off he's not a materialist, but instead is exploring the possibility that the universe is cyclic and infinite. He's a fascinating mind.

   This is how discussions should happen. So much better than trying to belittle your opponent. Wonderful conversation

   This has helped me really understand that debating isn’t worth it. Rather, having discussions, allow to hear the other person and see why they believe what they believe. I’ll have to keep that in my pocket for future reference.

   Unfortunately John Lennox is a fool who can't discern bullshit superstitious religious fairy tales, fictions, and myths from facts.❤

    All the fundamentalist, literalists are applauding you giving their apostle a kind hearing. But, he needs to be challenged, Alex. There are numerous presumptions on which he rides. Most generally, what bothers me is that he rides on his claim to fame as an Oxford Professor which means he must know (according to popular view—which is an argument to authority and invalid.) He also rides in on being a mathematician to which the deconsctructed discourse is a claim to cleverness. He can’t be dumb. And then he often rides in on the preface: “As a scientist,” which again, is a rhetorical devise to claim trustworthiness, reliability. The fact is that his treatment of the Bible is very naive indeed: The Bible says it and that, pretty much, settles it. He needs to come clean and say: I am not saying this as an Oxford professor, or scientist. I am merely parroting orthodox, doctrinal Christian belief, which, you should agree, is my right. He uses his academic fame as his trojan horse. His views are very tethered to fideistic doctrine. He is simply an apologist.

    I thought I would hear real arguments on faith… but Lennox opening discussion on "Chinese were not born to it" sounded like the biggest BS authority argument ever!

    Whilst a polite, respectful conversation is good, it's a shame that there wasn't more challenge. John Lennox is a master of avoiding direct questions and it's frustrating that he's able to get away with it. Take the very first question for example. Yes, there was a challenge about the findings of science undermining religion but he deflected by talking about China. The point is, does he believe that miracles are possible? If he does then that directly contradicts science. That's the fundamental conflict between religion and science.

    I have a hard time taking advice from someone who looks like that, but he does make good sense, perhaps a focus on fasting or fitness could have helped him

    It is astonishing for Mr. Lenox being an expert on Algebra and he can only acknowledge that Algebra is an Arabic word,while the truth is that Algebra was invented by Arabs.

    A Genuine question;even if one believes he has seen enough evidence for god;how is it that he knows it to be the God HE BELIEVES IN;the "right" one per se.For example how does a christian know it is the Christian God and not Kutkh or Atum or Mbombo or Tangaroa or The Vedic Purusha ? Many of whose stories might I add, contradict Christian Theory of creation
