... and so they are. Some of the other videos posted by the same user also look a bit tasty.klr wrote:

Must work on new gaps for God to hide, for next documentary. God hides in the smallest places, inside atoms, and also in black holes.

That would fucking work if the fundies would agree to it. :pissed:That emotional and intellectual hunger will endure longer than Professor Hawking's M-theory, and those wishing to take a truly scientific attitude may be better advised to follow the lead of the great Victorian agnostic Thomas Huxley who, in one of the last things that he wrote before he died asked "Is it not better to keep silence about matters which speech is incompetent to express; to be content with revolving in the deeps of the mind the infinite possibilities of the unknown?"

Re: BBC4 Horizon: The End of God - Science v. Religion
Personally I would put God into Higgs bosons, as it sounds like a god talk word, and it's really heavy duty:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Higgs_boson
God talks with mighty voice. We really missed out on Zappa lectures, most did not get video recorded. At 6min here we get into it
he does not sing, but here is Heavenly Bank Account

Re: BBC4 Horizon: The End of God - Science v. Religion
The last episode was essentially boring.

I find nothing more boring than the Goldilocks universe. If it were not a working system of laws and constants, you would not be here. Case dismissed.

Re: BBC4 Horizon: The End of God - Science v. Religion
Thanks, Ani, for the YouTube. Gotta love BBC, there is still a touch of Real Documentary there (facts, also the picture actually telling the story, rhythm, enough time for not rushing etc.).
"The internet is made of people. People matter. This includes you. Stop trying to sell everything about yourself to everyone. Don’t just hammer away and repeat and talk at people—talk TO people. It’s organic. Make stuff for the internet that matters to you, even if it seems stupid. Do it because it’s good and feels important. Put up more cat pictures. Make more songs. Show your doodles. Give things away and take things that are free." - Maureen J

Re: BBC4 Horizon: The End of God - Science v. Religion
And no advertising breaks. I can tell when I'm watching a documentary produced for a channel that takes lots of ad breaks, because the program keeps backtracking and summarising. Not so with the BBC ...Ronja wrote:Thanks, Ani, for the YouTube.

Re: BBC4 Horizon: The End of God - Science v. Religion
Can anybody compare this show to the first episode of "The Wormhole" with Morgan Freeman? Sounds like pretty much the same idea.

Re: BBC4 Horizon: The End of God - Science v. Religion
Not seen it - yet. I wonder if Morgan was the original narrator though? A lot of documentaries get a change of narrator when sold on to another country, even where they speaka da same language.Gawdzilla wrote:Can anybody compare this show to the first episode of "The Wormhole" with Morgan Freeman?
