In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

Whatever reason we came to be, I’m just happy to be alive. Also I like turtles.

Bryan: you're nothing Audience: claps

As an atheist, it’s refreshing to see someone with religious beliefs use their rationality and observations of the natural world to make their case instead of relying on “herd mentality” and blind faith. We need more theists like this guy.
-
I’m not a scientist or have the ability to articulate the scientific methods as such, however, I’ve always felt and believed that both science and Religion or God or the creator etc... are like two rivers flowing side by side. Each has explanations to what the other can’t explain, and towards the ends of the rivers’ flow, they both merge in a sea of knowledge.

“You see, we actually need the science explanation and the deeper meaning explanation to get the fuller picture of reality.”

Can't people just enjoy an amazing talk presented by a scientist who believes in God? Internet arguments are never productive because there is no face attached to the words. Look at some of these comments. If you were having a face to face conversation, would such things be said? My one and only complaint is that while this TEDx channel did a good job posting his scientific credentials, it ignored the fact he is also a staff worker for a faith based org on campus.

7:00 Let's be clear and honest about what we DO know. It isn't how "God describes himself". It's how man describes god!

Dr. E! You made it to TED TALKS. I heard him give this talk as a freshman and I can tell you this man is amazing. I wish everyone who is comfortable criticizing him from behind their computers could meet him in person and ask him their questions. I assure you he would answer them and comfortably admit if he didn't know or have an answer. He has so much more understanding than just what you are hearing in this talk. GO DR. E!

Every scientific endeavour starts as an act of faith. Without the fundamental belief that there is something to discover, there is no purpose to exploration. If we do not believe we can escape we will remain forever imprisoned.

That's my chemistry professor! Cool!!
-
Science and all of creation is too precise and elegant to happen without a SUPERMIND to come up with all of it.
-
Good Sabbath! I am so glad I found this. Thanks!🙋🏼♀️

Alternative title: “Science vs God” vs “Science and God”
-
I pretty much had the same ideas as this guy before I watched the video. I think when we learn about science, we are just discovering the tools of god.

If a fan blade moves fast enough you could hardly see it but if you stick your hand in it you'll know it's there..
-
This was the best video so far about my questions about God. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
-
the thing i just can’t get over is that we know that all of existence started from a few elements. those elements bonded in miraculous ways. this man is simply saying that those miraculous things are acts of god instead of scientific patterns that we have cannot comprehend yet. i think of lot of the answers to why are concepts our brains cannot grasp

"Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind"-Einstein

This hasn't convinced me of a god but this is definitely the strongest argument and most convincing argument I've seen for the proof in god. Well done, I highly respect what you've done here but I still stick to my beliefs of a universe created by and of random events.
