Shunning religion is extremely easy when you have an ability to think for yourself.
His blatent disregard for religion is what pisses me off and the fact he calls followers 'manics' but he is a complete and utter hypocrite. Hell "preach" about the universe completely believing every word that rolls off his tounge but its all un-substantiated, over-hyped, crap.. Theories based on theories, based on theories.

They are maniacs, every single one of them stuck in a time when it was sensible to believe in a higher power.
There is absolutely no reason for anyone half educated to believe that now.
Even high up well educated religious figures can't really believe it.
I'd rather see theories we can disprove than the old favourite of 'faith' which is the only argument I've seen for a higher power.

Those are the words of a very ignorant man.

The problem is Religion picks up where Science fails.. I'm not a religious man but I am an Agnostic.
* Science can not accurately explain how the universe was created.
* Science can not explain or prove the last stage of human evolution.
* Science can not accurately explain what is believed to be the weakest yet most widely effecting force in the whole universe: Gravity.
Yet there are reams of theories based on these subjects? But someone who believes in a higher being is instantly a "mad man"?

They are all 100% incorrect.
We can explain how it was created, the current explanation could very well be wrong though.
What bit of evolution are we missing, and even if so, how does one missing piece of evolution come close to rubbishing all the other scientific work and closer to proving existence of a higher being?
I've got a fairly good understanding of Gravity and I'm basically an idiot, I think the Scientists are not bad at it 
Not instantly a mad man no, they can either be a mad man or they can be that way because it's how they were brought up, most people in this world are the latter.

the difference is, believeing in god has pretty much zero logical sense, at least science goes some way to resolving with some theoretical sense

Religion just seems to me an easy way out. Which was fine 200 years ago but not now.
"hmmm something we can't explain...i know, man in the sky, sorted"

If religion didn't exist we would probably be a lot more evolved as individuals than we are now

I like his documentaries and videos, the man is very patronising at times, but I guess I just like astrophysics altogether, I wish he'd get a haircut though
Also ITT: Lots of people using big words to try make it look like they're the highest intellectual of corsasport.co.uk tbh..

Davey, how can you say it's not worth learning something because its all based in theory and not absolute fact? That is one if the finest examples of ignorance I've witnessed in this place. How do you think facts are found? Theories. Most of what we think we know in the world is based upon theory.
What I will say is I am a believer of science but realise science is no more proven than religion. It's all someone's interpretation.
