Take a lesson on quantum mechanics, of all subjects, from some guy on YouTube trying to prove the existence of god via it. Okaaaay. ::)

based on the description, quantum mechanics exists, is defined by law and precise calculations, yet is a very strange reality. If something can exist under those conditions, then why not god? ::)

Hello and welcome to HAF, quark.  It seems that despite the fact that you've been lurking here for a few days, you didn't bother to read the Forum Rules. If you had, you would have seen the section titled NO SPAM, in which it is clearly stated that posting a link in your first post in this thread is considered spamming this site. I have disabled the link, but those who wish to watch the video can easily do so by pasting its address into their browser and removing the asterisks.

In answer to the question in the title of this thread, I'll simply say that the video is disappointingly inaccurate and uses equivocation regarding certain ideas in quantum mechanics in a feeble attempt to "prove" the existence of "the God." Some more vulgar descriptions come to mind, but I see no need at the moment to share them.

It would be nice if you would join in our conversations here, rather than merely posting this annoying and mendacious youtube video.

QuoteNotes for new members from Tank:

The Rules.

Users who comply with forum rules will graduate to full membership after 10 posts. Till that time your ability to post is limited to the "Getting to Know You" section of the forum. It is our hope that this small restriction improves the overall atmosphere of HAF.

Some threads you might find interesting.
Where did you get your username from?
10 Things About Yourself
Tell us A Bit About Where You're From
Photography
Non-religious pet peeves
Pets...what do you have?
How to tell your family you are an atheist.*
"Rules for Conducting a Discussion" by Dr. Mortimer J. Adler*

*You will need 10 posts before you can add a post to this thread, but you can read it at any time.

I hope you enjoy your time reading and posting here.

Welcome to HAF. You have to have made ten relatively substantive posts  before you get to start or engage in serious debates.

Also, I've never tried it, but it looks vile. I'm not a fan of processed meats.  :-\

Down south they have a special kind of spam called treet. By special I mean exactly the same. They spell it wrong to be cute I guess   ???

I had to eat it regularly as a kid.  It's just a vile as it looks.
