First cause, Watchmaker argument, ontological and teleological arguments, arguments from morality, etc. But what are the theists really trying to prove?

A journey through a glimpse of the universe. Thinking of mankind as the only "intelligent" life form might be one of the dumbest assumptions ever made. A compilation of images from the Hubble space telescope.

There is no fucking God!

Stephen Hawking gives a lecture on the Hawking-Hartle no boundary universe.

Cosmology from an atheist's standpoint cut together from bits and pieces of relevant video clips, commentary, and my own animation.

Project Camelot had the great pleasure of interviewing Michael St Clair, a reknowned futurist and visionary, at the magical Chateau de Chillon in Montreux. St Clair has written a book called Zen of Stars that addresses the transformations and earth changes which are coming in the next few years. As he says: "We are psychic beings inhabiting a physical reality." St Clair is a synthesist who covers areas as diverse as astrology, astronomy, cosmology and the evolution of the human soul. Inspired by the work of Krishnamurti, he talks about the future of the planet Earth and our growing awareness that is launching us into an enlightened view of the merging of realities. His work centers around the notion of the growth of small communities and safe places – where those who wish to ride out the coming years can live true to their ideals while maintaining the calm necessary to be ports of shelter to those around us.

NOVA: What makes the study of origins so hot right now? Tyson: Well, one thing that distinguishes us today from the discoveries of the past is the extent to which the exploration of the universe has become multidisciplinary. It was unthinkable not long ago that a biologist or paleontologist would be at the same conference as an astrophysicist. Now we have accumulated so much data in each of these branches of science as it relates to origins that we have learned that no one discipline can answer questions of origins alone. It requires the additional insights that one gets by merging not only the questions, but the answers, among scientific disciplines. Now, for example, when you look for life on Mars, you need the astrophysicist to characterize the environment in which the planet is found. You need the chemist to understand the chemistry of the soils. You need the geologist to understand the rock formations. You need the biologist, because no one else will know what life will look like. You might even need a paleontologist to look for life that doesn't exist there today but might have left fossil remains. NOVA: It's hard to imagine scientists in such diverse disciplines working well together. Do they? Tyson: Initially it was like a shotgun wedding, where you'd say, "Well, I guess we have to talk to each other." And scientists in different disciplines don't speak the same language. They publish in different journals. It's like the United Nations: you come together, but no one speaks the same language, so you need some translators.
