I'm not going to watch a half-hour video with some hack making claims based on unfounded assumptions. Post a link to an article if you want me to respond. All I can say is it's not "proof" if anyone can come up with objections to it. Also, scientific theories don't "prove" anything; they are models that explain observations. Proof is for mathematics and logic, not the physical sciences.
Stephen Jay Gould came up with the concept of "non-overlapping magisteria." Science and religion do not have to conflict with each other because they are addressing completely unrelated areas of knowledge. It's only a problem if they intrude on each other, but they don't have to.

Creation would be connected to science when you observe the components of it.

Every video I've seen that purports to prove the existence of "god" has been nothing more than completely unsubstantiated propaganda and misinformation. Yet if I decline to watch one I'm accused of "ignoring the evidence".

What are you afraid of? Why are you afraid to watch it?

I see you still can't get my name right.
Lee Strobel, "The Case for Christ", is one although any of his propaganda videos will do as an example. I know because I wasted nearly an hour listening to that tripe. He may deceive the gullible but some of us can see though his BS.
Voddie Baucham is another propagandist. I've wasted too much time listening to his BS too.
You asked @LeopoldBloom [quote]What are you afraid of? Why are you afraid to watch it?[/quote]
I can't answer for him but I'm not afraid to watch them, I just don't want to waste even more of my time watching unsubstantiated claims masquerading as evidence. As I said above [b]"Every video I've seen that purports to prove the existence of "god" has been nothing more than completely unsubstantiated propaganda and misinformation."[/b] Why should anyone believe you when you claim you have evidence after you'd lied about that so many times?

@GodSpeed63 I'm not "afraid to watch it." I've heard every argument already and don't want to waste a half-hour listening to one again. I would be happy to read an article or blog post if the guy has one and will respond to that.
How about I post a half-hour lecture from Christopher Hitchens or Richard Dawkins and accuse you of being "afraid to watch it?" Time is precious. I have noticed that conservatives in general seem to like videos while liberals prefer written material. Maybe you like being spoon-fed.

Yes, Time precious but I'd still watch the videos you post. You're tired of the debate because you keep running into a brick wall where there is no brick wall.

@GodSpeed63 I'm not tired of the debate at all.
If you can provide an objective proof of God's existence, I'll critique it.

You have already stated your position on the Christian God. Why pretend that you are objective in critiquing a proof.
