Excellent job! This analogy is too often used without proper explanation but you have done a thorough job. Your vid. will hopefully help some reasonable people to better understand the obvious flaws of ID arguments.

Individuals just don't have the necessary to see themselves adapting to a new medium, which at first might be hostile to them, and it is (probably) this that misleads toward the 'world is made for me' thinking. BTW, why is your voice always so sleepy?

Hi, I really enjoy all of your videos. I would like to recommend one very special book to read, even if it's gonna be hard in the beginning, it's called Metu Neter and it perfectly puts together Astronomy, Physics, Math and all other sciences together with "Higher Intelligence" and knowledge of Ancient Egypt. I think you already know that in ancient world people knew that the Earth is not flat and had superior technology...
Peace and love

Since I assume no theists have watched this vid, let me just point out what they would say: Earth is a particularly habitable environment... moreso than any planet we've found so far. Is that a coincidence? (of course my answer would be, yes)
great video and so ... ( 5 months ago by Knowntje)
great video and so true, but many theists would object to this on a cosmic scale, namely not the tuning of the earth but of the laws of physics which make the universe possible, unfortunately your analogy doesnt work for that

Hi, atracts.
Thats proper explaination? It doesn't define a sigle thing in detail at all, what is this "flaws of ID arguments"? So matter just decided to turn itself into life? Why would it do that, What does the universe have to gain from turning matter into intelligent life? Why would the little atoms and
particals do that, just so it can make somthing intelligent enough to wonder why it exists then die and never even know it even existed? Theres no point to intelligence.

the sentient puddle is part of The Divine Quintet that I like to use that I feel addresses most of the - and most of the retorts xians make. Puddle: whos meeting whos needs us or earth? Invsbl pnk unicorn: dis/proveability of god Spgtti mnstr: creative-post-evidence-interpretation but also the "take 1 god, you get all gods" thing Last thursdayisim: young earth theory Raptor Jesus: Dinosaur bible paradox thank you for the first real good puddle movie ive found. this will be an asset.

so why cant the universe work on a predictable system and have been created by God. I mean if you believe in predestination by a higher power then wouldnt a world where you think you have free will be have a definite future that is calculable and definite compliment each other? i believe in partial predestination,
that all system are ... ( 4 months ago by Pimpmastahanhduece)
that all system are predictable except what is influenced by the will of a soul converted to action and a desired reaction,partial that you cant to do EVERYTHING,but anything that has a probability.even if something have an infinitely small chance to occur,any probability suggests 100% possibility meaning that they if nothing keeping from happening besides circumstances.So earth would always form because it was never influenced by the will of anything besides God who initiated it.

Jon, Your narration ... ( 2 months ago by telosnut)
Jon, Your narration speaks as if the puddle has an ego, and considers it's self separate from all else. thats its special in some way and does not see how it serve a purpose or function. But a puddle isn't just a puddle. it is an ever changing and moving state, if it wasn't, it wouldn't have been able to manifest into "a puddle" correct?
anything really, lacks inherient existence because it never exists in the same state. Thus moment of existence is drawn from a subjects perspective.YOU THE EGO
Great analogy ... ( 2 months ago by telosnut)
Great analogy adaptation. I very much liked it. 5/5 stars.
Regarding the posted analogy, the logical conclusion i've come to, relating closly to buddhist thought and practically all aborigninal beliefs , as well as, I beleive, everyone's unconscienceness belief, is;
life is a collective conscienceness and the ego is an illusion to aid physical matter or species in survival and manifestation into greater and finer complexity.
The main dualism being Love and Fear.
I beleive it is ... ( 2 months ago by telosnut)
I beleive it is only the self which creates fears. One often only realizes they're dreaming after they wake up from it and "realize" it was "only a dream". Imagine the possibilities if one could see through the fantasy of a dream and know that their present fears and discomforts mean nothing, do not really exist, and are just part of an illusion created by your mind. Why worry if your just going to "wake up" after?
And if this world is created by my mind, those enemies are just myself right? :)
is there an ... ( 3 weeks ago by ooglebydoogleby)
is there an objective measurement of the rate of evolutionary adaptation and the increase in the rate after extinxtion events? is there an understanding of equilibrium in evolutionary forces and are some species viable only after they reach a saturation levell? disputing evolution is as futile as disputing someones hight. its not a question of if the theory is corect but how acurate it is given our curent understanding. nice vid
