The Worst of the Best Podcast

In a mind-expanding episode of The Worst of the Best Podcast, hosts Ryan (from Canada) and Drew (from Florida) dive deep into a provocative  article exploring "10 Scientific Hints of Possible Higher Beings," blending physics, philosophy, quantum mechanics, and simulation theory, from the improbable existence of the universe and Higgs field "precipice" to directed panspermia "gooey biological liquids," junk DNA "signatures," cosmic ray glitches, holographic projections, and error-correcting code embedded in superstring equations, while debating religion as a human construct, morality without faith, and whether we'd riot if proven to be in a Sims-like simulation created by advanced (or divine) entities.

0:01
welcome to the worst of the best podcast you wanted the best well they didn't
0:08
freaking make it so here's what you get from Canada and Florida Ryan and Drew

0:35
hi Ryan hey how's it going very good how are you good my friend good to see you
0:40
good to see you can you hear me all right loud and clear brother my lips are very shiny because I this lighting makes
0:46
me look like I've got makeup on but it's just I don't know why it's so red well I haven't seen you in a while we were
0:51
going to discuss the changes in your appearance at some point I'm sure I got to wear makeup for the camera I got lip
0:57
gloss on because it's so dry here how's cooling off for you it's not bad it's uh
1:03
overnight couple degrees under 0 Celsius so we're you know I can't make
1:09
any sense out of that at all what what what's freezing water in
1:14
Fahrenheit 32 okay so it's a little bit under 32 oh that is chilly that is chilly yeah
1:22
but all in all it's not too bad the winter winter is coming as they say on HBO it's inevitable right every year if
1:30
we're lucky we get to experience it every year if you don't experience it every year then uh you're not here you're not here to worry about it I
1:36
guess Sound the Alarm yeah well uh I know the time of this recording uh this
1:41
is pre-election week when this comes out it's going to be three weeks from now
1:47
why don't we do a little something we'll just pretend Biden W tell me your thoughts if you don't mind and let's pretend Trump one and tell me your
1:53
thoughts if you don't mind and then I'll just edit whatever the response is into the I can't believe you're giving me
1:59
this opportunity wow make it quick one minute one minute Biden one go there's a lot of work to be done I'd say that's
2:05
just the first step you know unsure about really uh how the Senate can't comes out and how the house comes out
2:12
but if people who are somewhat liberal or call themselves Democrats want to achieve the things that we need to
2:19
achieve to put our country at least back where it was if not everyone's goal
2:25
let's make it a little bit better let's not go backwards we probably need all three of those to really be able to
2:32
effectuate the very quick changes that we need to make to sort of roll back a lot of the really inappropriate moves
2:39
that were made by the previous ad Administration okay so Biden's won and he's going to pass away in a year
2:44
Camella Harris now how does this work does she take over for the whole presidency until a reelection that's
2:51
right she would if if Biden died one year in Miss Harris would have a three-year term and then I I'm not sure
2:59
how they'd ra it or what not if she would be referred to as an incumbent at that point but she would certainly have
3:04
3 years of presidenting under her belt assuming that uh she doesn't pass during that time I think a lot of people's
3:10
assumption is that Biden will not be running in 2024 that quite potentially Harris would
3:16
be the one to run for president off of that ticket in 2024 and that's just a product of having two incredibly old men
3:22
running for this position this year both of these guys are older than the people that we elected in '92 two and 2000 are
3:32
now so that's just how that's just how much things have changed I think that at one point Biden did make a promise that
3:39
he was not going to run for a second term he has not done that lately but I I
3:44
do think that it might be something that's probably best for him to consider okay all right well there you go folks
3:51
there is our election coverage it's a pretty uh pretty big moment of course in American history uh us has a big week
3:58
ahead of them but at the time of this release going to happen so I wish the US Whoever has won all the best I will say
4:04
this I'll edit accordingly congratulations Mr Biden and Kile Harris hope you do well okay really appreciate
4:11
the opportunity to do that with you Ryan I always appreciate your take on these things I think that you're able to uh uh
4:18
see more of the comedy in it and I certainly see more of the tragedy it's your house and I understand that and I'm
4:24
I know unfortunately we're not a political podcast on the gamer Gator production Network we do have one and
4:30
that is the one big toilet podcast so I'm sure Tony of that podcast will have a lot to say regardless of who wins he
4:36
and not only that he says it quite well Drew do you believe in a higher power I
4:42
do I do and that's that's an interesting question given this topic that we have
4:47
today we've chosen to discuss the 10 scientific hints of possible higher
4:54
beings I'm not entirely certain that this higher being that we're talking about is the sort of spiritual religious
5:01
God that you may try to tie those two things together we're sort of discussing higher beings that may be seen as
5:09
evolutionarily Beyond us and able to create life these These are uh higher beings that are creators of Life they
5:16
are not necessarily moral guides in any instance believing in a higher being may
5:21
be a different thing than believing in a God I think at the end of the day this is not a religion or religious uh topic
5:28
or conversation though religion might come up as we talk about these topics because I believe is that religion
5:34
religion in of itself with the construct of religion and Gathering Under the Umbrella of religion is man-made
5:40
religion is like having your favorite team your favorite sports team your favorite musical artist it doesn't matter you know you go to a concert and
5:46
you feel the spirit you have a great time at a at a concert and you can feel emotional and feel United with the audience with the with the performer I
5:53
think religion is is a little bit about that where you have a performer and a way of thinking and it's everyone else is like yeah I like this idea too and
6:00
you get together and it feels good that should share that commonality because we're on this planet yeah because people
6:07
are like how do we get here like why why is uh why is grass green why is why is
6:12
chocolate sweet and how come bees pollinate the flowers the way they do like I understand the way the world is
6:19
and everything that's put together it's a it's a fascinating structure the fact that we
6:24
exist as human beings the fact that we just are in of itself would lend to the question for us humans is why do we
6:31
exist why rather than why not but I used to be uh very religious and I stopped
6:38
attending my faith and and prescribing to it as a lifestyle however there's things within my upbringing and within
6:45
my faith that aren't all bad or aren't worth having like I believe in showing
6:52
love I believe in charity uh I believe in kindness um I believe in spirituality
6:58
I believe that it's good to meditate or to count your blessings to think about others to put one you know to put others
7:04
before yourself all these things are Christian tenants and I think they're ways of just being good so I believe in
7:11
Morality and I think that sometimes people if they stop going to church or they don't have a religion that they prescribe to they can't be moral I think
7:18
it's a terrible thing to say to somebody you can have complete good morality without having a uh religion umbrella
7:26
over that absolutely and there's a lot of different EXP explanations and rational for why religion was created
7:31
but you certainly did boil it down initially it's a human construct I used to believe that I came from God in the
7:39
sense of like like an actual physical father and that I came to Earth and my
7:45
time on Earth was a test if I was good I get to go to heaven you know we all know this we all know the Christian belief
7:50
and most religions have this concept of do the tenants of the religion and you'll get rewarded in the next life you
7:57
don't do the tenants of that religion you don't go to heaven you go to some sort of Hell the opposite of heaven and
8:02
that's your basic construct of most religions do what you're told you get rewarded you don't do what you're told
8:07
you're not rewarded depending on how you want to word it or you go to aell Just tag on to that do what you're
8:14
told that is morally right because this is all about instilling in people some
8:20
series of values those values are not inherent in any way they are created by
8:25
people who sat down and wrote down the values that's sort of how it is designed to Well Control people by making them
8:33
think that this is the thing that they should do the morally good these are the things that they shouldn't do the morally bad those may change over time
8:39
as we loosen some restraints on people within religion but at the end of the day that's how God gets wrapped up with
8:44
this he's both the person that put you here and the thing that you're aiming towards maybe to be joined with in another life or what have you but he's
8:52
also told you how to live your life while you're around here and that's the moral portion and hopes that you may get
8:58
somewhere else else or something of that sort I think that's sort of a constant throughout a lot of the religions of the world and I hate to be reductive this is
9:06
a list of 10 scientific hints or theories that have been proven by science or math of a possible higher
9:13
being so basically it's more than just is what I'm trying to say is more than just people saying hey I think there's a
9:20
God or I think there's a higher being science in the and the scientific method
9:25
something that most humans prescribe to or agree upon it's not a bad way to go to figure things out uh I mean the fact
9:31
that we're communicating on the internet was done by science right science has given us a lot for humans from heart
9:36
surgery to medicine to putting man on the moon so science is good but it doesn't mean it's always right but so
9:43
here are 10 scientific hints of POS High beans I think scientific hints here is
9:49
actually a much more expansive there could be a more expansive title for this list I think so we can maybe reward it
9:55
what I mean yeah what I mean by it is that it touches on these areas of biology of Technology of math of philosophy
10:05
certainly it touches into these areas where yes you could reduce a lot of these things to science but not all of
10:11
them are commonly considered that way as I was really looking at it I see I think that if you're sort of maybe the wrong
10:18
word but simple-minded about looking at these you may think that some of them are the same but really what the list is
10:23
is it's showing you here's one piece of evidence of some sort that may point you
10:29
to this and here's and sometimes it's here's another piece of evidence that may point you to the same thing the end
10:36
of it the list is talking about the pieces of evidence that we sort of have to look at be it a study or a equation
10:43
or a philosophical thought experiment at times these are pieces of evidence that
10:49
point to the fact that there may be some sort of a higher being that is a creator that is the reason why there is life
10:55
instead of not life all right like it does that make sense I think so I think you're very smart and
11:02
I think we have some smart listeners don't worry about me did you know that you were bringing me on the podcast and
11:08
I have a degree in philosophy I didn't know you had a degree did I know this I have a degree in philosophy now I've
11:14
also I also have a jurist doctorate but my undergrad there's not really a pre-law designation at a lot of schools
11:20
so they sort of point you in a direction mine was a Philosophy degree I have a Bachelor of Arts W and so that's my
11:27
Approach To A lot of these things and I think if you give me the time I may during this list break into some of
11:33
these things that are thought experiments or famous allegories or things that this is how I relate to this
11:39
list and this is how I boil it down other people may have different ways of doing it but I certainly did enjoy being
11:45
able to tackle this list with you and well it's interesting that I picked this this was one that interested me to talk
11:50
about and little did I know of the connection you were going to have with this so that's great just what was it
11:56
that you thought about initially when you thought about this list you think about science or do you think about philosophy you think of how it's been
12:03
presented in pop culture what do you think I love philosophy and the fact I studied philosophy in University as well
12:09
I don't have a doctorate I did about three philosophy courses and I got a pluses of them for whatever reason I
12:14
excelled at it when I did it it's fun it is fun it's just fun to think you're
12:19
just you're just expounding on thought and if you're able to articulate it well I guess you get a good grade and I guess
12:24
I was able to it when I was saying when I left my faith yeah I used to have the comfort of knowing of where I came from
12:32
and where I was going I admit when I first kind of let go of the religion I panicked a little bit I'm
12:38
like okay then now what okay I still exist and I still believe in being good
12:44
but what does that mean and so I have studied a variety of different thoughts and ideas and philosophies and from
12:51
Neuroscience scientists to uh philosophers modern day philosophers to
12:56
freethinkers you you name it and I trying to find my own personal Journey from people who are much smarter than me
13:02
so do you have a favorite what the one I went to the very beginning and the one I really quite enjoyed of course was uh
13:08
Sam Harris he helped me get my head not be so afraid of death and why we exist
13:13
see I kind of moved on from him in some ways personally I do believe in the spiritual I believe in the idea that our
13:22
souls or our being exists outside of this life I don't think he believes in
13:28
the finality of this life that's fine that's his belief I believe we continue so I agree with a lot of the ways he
13:34
thinks we should be while we're here but I believe that we will continue in some
13:39
way and I have some ideas about that but personal thoughts but I believe we continue to some degree after I I
13:45
certainly would agree with you people would call it a soul uh Rene to C called it the mind there are things that exists
13:51
out of the physical world and that's who we really are perhaps a lot of these kind of topics that we'll get to will
13:57
sort of open up perhaps how detached we may really be from what we consider the
14:02
physical I actually just watched a documentary I'll give it a plug it's who we are it just came out it's on YouTube
14:07
it's free to watch it's called who we are one of the uh speakers to this documentary brought up a really good analogy and I love
14:14
analogies I think it's important to be clear that the brain and the mind or the brain and internal experience are
14:20
clearly correlated with each other so there there's a relationship between brain activity and our internal
14:27
experience but that relationship ship actually doesn't say very much about what is the causal Direction the usual
14:33
presumption is that the brain processing is the causal reason why we have Consciousness but that's an inference
14:40
that would be very difficult to justify because it could just as well be in the other direction in fact this is what
14:46
gives rise to ideas that it's not that the brain is generating Consciousness but rather the brain is receiving
14:52
Consciousness or is a filter of Consciousness which is somehow out there this is the difference between uh
14:59
looking at a radio and listening to it playing music and opening up the radio expecting to find little tiny people
15:06
with instruments in it well that's not what happens you open the radio and you see something which ultimately is
15:13
receiving information that's coming from somewhere else the radio was actually receiving information from outside the
15:19
radio and that is then being transmitted to you if you open your mind so to speak
15:24
to other channels to the to the universe you are actually the radio receiver you are not creating the music you are
15:31
receiving it once we leave this Mortal coil so to speak the brain that's the radio you go out there you realized oh
15:37
the universe is full of radio waves and my brain was just a radio on the desk it
15:44
was just a piece of the whole puzzle it was just there to sort of receive the signals that were already out there
15:49
right that you know other things cannot perceive rocks cannot perceive radio signals trees cannot perceive but humans
15:56
have evolved brains and brains are able to do that I'm very excited to get into this are you handling number 10 yes I am
16:02
so number 10 is the idea that the universe is itself shouldn't exist I've actually asked this to myself and I
16:10
actually Googled the question on on Google just to see what answers was come up I said why do we exist why does life
16:17
exist the idea that existence exists is that a weird thought incredibly try to
16:24
absorb a bit of Neil degrass Tyson and I really do enjoy he sort of constantly goes goes back to the sort of chances
16:31
that life would exist instead of not existing is one in a billion of some sort that's the evidence of a guiding
16:38
hand according to studies the universe should not have survived more than a second for example the Big Bang which we
16:43
all know about should have produced equal amounts of matter and antimatter cancelling each other out instead
16:49
slightly more matter was produced creating the entire observable universe that we now see in another theory have
16:55
you heard of this the universe is in the higs field which gives particles their Mass so a large energy field stops our
17:03
universe from falling into the valley a deeper field where the universe couldn't exist so it's like we're on this
17:09
precipice of existence like all these things are just meeting the right
17:15
balance to exist if the standard model of physics is correct a rapid expansion
17:21
of the universe immediately after the big bang should have moved the universe into the valley this would have
17:26
destroyed the universe before it was 1 second old but that didn't happen the impossibility
17:31
of life on Earth is also very unlikely so galaxies couldn't exist without the
17:37
right mixture of matter Dark Matter Dark Energy then Earth itself had to be the right distance from the Sun a Jupiter
17:43
sized Planet also had to attract more asteroids and comets to help protect the Earth or the Earth's surface itself
17:48
would be too violent to sustain life so if you just think about the Earth itself forget the universe the Stars the Suns
17:54
everything else is just out there the fact that we exist on this planet that cons sustained life that's somehow just
18:01
the right place away from the sun we have our Seasons we have air to breathe we have food to eat and then the food
18:07
has food to eat it's just it's all crazy man what are the odds was all perfectly put together exactly what are the odds
18:15
we know so much about a big bang that we are so sure nobody's seen a big bang
18:21
what do we really talking about but we are positive if it was a big bang it should have produced this and this but
18:28
instead produce this and so why why there's this big mystery because we are
18:33
so sure in our studies and then you've got the thing about the higs field which basically insinuates that there's a
18:39
mysterious energy force that is stopping us from not existing which is I mean
18:45
that's sort of your invisible hand or your guiding force it's just somebody's got an interest in keeping us
18:53
alive it's almost like if you're playing let's say the game Sims right of course
18:58
I think a lot of these conversations may get back to the game sins so go ahead everyone knows the game sins if you
19:03
don't it's basically you as a the computer you use the human are controlling or creating an environment
19:10
for these simulation humans to live in and they will on their own act accordingly to whatever environment you
19:16
put them in but you add one more level to the game of Sims is when the characters start trying to figure out
19:22
how they got into the game that's us here the Sim might say to himself hey I'm I have a house I have a wife I have
19:28
a child child I have grass I have food I have a job I and then they go huh I'm
19:34
self-aware how did I get here hey did you go to the edge of this grid how are these polygons formed who created the
19:41
who created the pattern who created this program who's controlling the program who change the weather wait a minute
19:46
maybe we're inside of a game like the game piece becomes aware of it of the game okay fair enough because there is
19:52
much more on that glad you kicked it off number nine is is a different sort of theory what number nine is is some sort
20:00
of an explanation for a seed of life there is a theory that's called the
20:06
directed panspermia Theory and what I want to start with is that there's actually a larger Theory that's called a
20:12
panspermia theory the panspermia theory of existence is one that states that
20:19
biological existence is transported throughout the Universe by things like
20:25
asteroids and meteor meteoroids or planets crashing into to each other or different things that are sort of
20:31
involuntary modes of Transport where there is a life somewhere in the universe and it gets spread throughout
20:39
the Universe sort of like a seeding sort of like you hear about trees that spread
20:44
to different different parts of the world via birds eating their seeds and then dropping the seeds that's exactly
20:51
how I look at it right there's meteors that are the birds and they are bringing spores or cells or some sort of bi
20:58
biological matter from planet to planet number nine is actually talking about is a directed pans spermia Theory which
21:05
insists that this is not involuntary that there is a higher power that is
21:11
sending molecules and atoms that would create life from planet to planet and
21:16
this was actually a theory that was created by Francis Crick he was one of the two guys Watson and Crick that
21:23
discovered DNA oh okay okay I'm not sure exactly what you would call his
21:29
specialty but but that's who that guy was directed panspermia is the thought that it's not unintentional asteroids
21:35
it's like God throwing a baseball at a planet and that baseball when it hits
21:40
the planet it's going to explode and there's going to be trees and people and everything everywhere in July 2013 an
21:46
astrobiologist named Milton Wayne Right he claimed that he found a seed of life
21:52
now listen to this he launched a weather balloon and he captured a metallic ball
21:58
the ball that was on the outside it was titanium and a metal called vadium now
22:04
when I say ball I'm using that Loosely this ball is as big as a strand of hair
22:10
it's a rain droplet it's a thousandth of a rain droplet is what this ball that he said he found and he said this ball was
22:17
not solid metal on the inside of this titanium vadium shell there was a quote
22:23
gooey biological liquid all right if you're
22:29
playing worst of the best Bingo right now you can mark off gooey biological
22:34
liquid you know squ Center Square so I actually did look further
22:40
into this and people are very skeptical of what he claims he saw or what he claims he found he was then able to just
22:46
study it himself and he was never really able to describe what the gooey biological liquid is but it was quite
22:52
interesting because it's it's almost microscopically small that somehow he captured it was somehow big enough to
22:58
have a shell and then things inside it so it's very very interesting that would be proven this would be evidence of a
23:05
higher power evidence that something created a metal ball you wouldn't
23:10
imagine that this thing would occur naturally that's why they're calling it directed right so this metal ball with a
23:15
liquid was intended to fly through space and hit our planet and then probably exp
23:21
explode and the gooey biological liquid is the metaphorical spark in the primordial ooze that will then create
23:27
all of the to come well I love the idea this theory is called panspermia I heard
23:34
you laugh when I said it you couldn't help yourself Ryan I heard you laugh when I said it what it's called
23:41
pisia oh my goodness I already had to say gooey biological liquid this is the phrase
23:48
that we're using this is we are adults Ryan we are
23:53
professionals professionals and we talk about gooey biological liquids go on was two female doctors that discovered this
24:00
would be called Pam iy m i I don't want to hear it
24:07
Ryan am I allowed to mute you don't be farmers do this kind of
24:15
thing like direct bees to pollinate and I find bees to be very fascinating I want to reserve my answer to that
24:21
question for our top 10 most interesting things about bees podcast yep okay let's
24:27
move to number eight now humans as you probably know and I didn't know we had this many genes to be honest with you I
24:32
don't know how many we had but I get confused between genes and other things or and genomes humans are made up of
24:38
22,000 genes or 3% of the human genome weird I've lived my whole life Ryan
24:43
thinking that we were made up of 21,000 genes I've been fooled this entire time just so you know the other 90% is junk
24:50
DNA I did know that our DNA is largely controlled by a very small amount of it
24:58
so I did know that that's insane to me that what we're made of is not what we're made of or it's not being utilized
25:04
it's a really odd concept so to me it's the sort of the same concept as when you
25:10
hear that homo sapiens are 33% DNA different than chimpanzees
25:17
right there's just a smidge of DNA and smidge is a scientific term go ahead
25:22
look it up there's a smidge of DNA that differentiates us from chimpanzees it's just a dollar of DNA that separates us
25:30
from fish probably these are scientific references I looked them up I I was going to say I don't think any podcast
25:36
has ever used the word dollop yet I think you might be the first one hey we're playing worst of the best bingo I
25:42
mean get your cards guys $5 at the entry so the other 97% is junk DNA which may
25:47
contain a coded message or a designer tag if life originated elsewhere or was
25:53
created by a higher being in 2013 two casan researchers claimed they found an
25:59
ordered sequence of symbolic language in our junk DNA that would not have
26:04
happened naturally however of course many critics dismissed their quote biological CI that's a search for
26:11
extraterrestrial intelligence alternatively Genesis France Francis Collins argued in his book The Language
26:17
of God that DNA is God's alphabet and makes up the book of life which is of
26:22
course us our bodies the idea again that our bodies the way they're designed we
26:28
have feet and hands and noses and eyes everything is where it is the way we procreate and the way that we get rid of
26:34
our uh waste everything just like this higher design of functionality is it
26:40
just an accident that we function the way we do then our DNA itself the Cod
26:45
like when you look at a cell in the coding of life it does call into question of this is where people will
26:52
say well Ryan you why don't you believe in God but only a God would create this and and my response is I
26:59
understand that I can't create this and I understand that I don't know how anything gets put together but this
27:05
could then be proof for yes I agree with you something higher than any human has ever lived put this together or we
27:13
literally are a accident it does seem like a far-fetched notion to believe
27:19
that all of this is an accident the way that nucleotide sequencing in DNA works
27:25
it's only four you know letters the adenine the cytosine the guanine and the
27:31
thyine well how does it boil down to just four letters sort of like binary code boils down to ones and zeros how
27:38
can every technological advancement that we make be explained in ones and zeros
27:43
and every biological creature on the planet boils down to A C T and G so
27:51
interesting that those things are you you can just get it down to that point this piece of evidence is sort of
27:57
considering like the Creator as an author they looked at it they said that they found his signature in it you know
28:03
what I mean there's all the stuff that we have that makes us who we are and then somewhere at the end of it all he
28:11
scratches initials people would look at this and they'd ask you why you don't believe in a God I mean it certainly
28:17
does make me believe in creationism certainly does make me believe that a higher being of some sort I don't know
28:24
if we have to call it God and I know what's happening here and I think people who are listening to those who believe in God might be seeing C see see you you
28:31
guys my my argument back is is that I believe the concept of a God who is
28:36
watching us to see if we're good or bad like Santa Claus that's the problem so
28:42
I'm not saying that a higher being didn't create life or design it or have us function within it but I don't know
28:48
if that same being is calling upon us to worship them and I don't know if that's
28:54
the case anymore than the Sim in a computer game is worshiping the as you would think that the Sim does not
29:00
acknowledge the existence of the of the Creator you just in these instances the one that you're worshiping do you
29:06
necessarily have to think that he's the omnipotent the one that that created all of it it's sort of an interesting thing
29:12
as a game developer a God you know what I mean and we well yeah and I don't mean to use it as that humans are game pieces
29:19
but the idea that we exist and we are in an environment that we are functioning in as a creator of I've played Sims you
29:27
actually kind of care for these like players you don't want them to get hungry you don't want them you try to give them all their the freedom that
29:33
they can so to speak and I don't think that we are being watched the way like under like a ants under a magnifying
29:40
glass I think believe there's something up there that maybe does love and care about us but and again I think maybe we
29:45
do have a reason to exist and to grow I'm just wondering about the shame and guilt part of religion and I'm wondering
29:53
about wondering about the part of if you don't do this you'll be consigned to hell I think it's the idea of hell and
30:00
the Eternal punishment for a temporary crime it just makes no sense to me you
30:06
know I still consider myself religious without maybe believing all of the stuff
30:12
that's obviously hogwash well yeah and I'm just challenging the listeners that believe in the hell I'm asking them to
30:17
ask themselves what does hell mean to us as individuals hell is an empty threat
30:23
hell is a that's my feeling too that's my feel exactly it's used to control people this is why religion was so
30:29
heavily intertwined with government and most of its existence and even modern
30:34
efforts to say that it's different do not really prove that point religion is heavily tied to government both are
30:40
instruments of controlling populations for their own good or otherwise but the promise of heaven or the threat of hell
30:48
is just trying to trying to keep you in line all right number seven that ventured very far off of D well there's
30:56
well I mean these are there are very yeah expansive topics and I really really enjoy them the next one that
31:02
we're going to talk about number seven is cosmic rays uh I grew up as a pretty
31:09
big comic book fan okay and in the world of comic books cosmic rays are the very
31:17
first thing that gave the Fantastic for their superpowers okay cosmic rays have
31:22
been introduced to me from a very young age as like this magical thing that
31:27
along with gamma radiation and super soldier serums it's just one of the ways
31:33
that superheroes become superheroes but eventually you get into it and you're sort of asking yourself like what Cosmic
31:38
I get cosmic that means like from the universe but rays of sunshine so Ray is
31:44
actually a term that's a geometry term there are three things that a thing can be you can be a line a line goes
31:52
infinitely in both directions a line never stops you can be a segment which
31:57
is what people normally refer to as lines like if you go to a parking lot the lines in the parking lot those are
32:02
not lines those are all segments each and every one of them segments a ray is something that has a definite starting
32:10
point and an indefinite ending point okay and so that's exactly what we're talking about here the existence of a
32:16
cosmic ray is a piece of evidence that may explain a higher power because it
32:23
has a starting point but no ending point what we have here is a philosopher named
32:29
Nick Bostrom in 2003 he postulated that the universe is a computer simulation
32:36
yeah this is a theory that is accepted by Elon Musk and Neil degrass Tyson Elon
32:42
Musk has given a lot of speeches that say things to the effect of you remember
32:47
pong right do you remember pong theame pong yeah pong the video game pun did
32:53
you ever play it did you ever have it yes it did on the on the Atari yes yes okay p was amazing and that was your
32:59
first video game in the mere 40 years since then yeah yeah we now have what
33:06
for video games we now have open world things like Red Dead Redemption that just a totally immersive almost
33:13
indistinctive from reality video games we create video games where millions of
33:18
people can log onto the same server and be in the same environment at the same time just imagine what we have created
33:26
in that 40 years and his argument is even if the progress screeches to a halt
33:33
and we continue to make new video games which is such a inappropriate word for
33:40
the type of simulation that we're talking about but this is how we related to it video games it's the metaphor for
33:46
it yeah it is so Elon Musk talking about video games says even if we continue to
33:52
make new video games that are only a tenth as much Progressive as they have been and in 10,000 years we will create
34:00
a totally fully immersive alternate reality that is indistinguishable from
34:06
the one that we live in right you can argue that's what we're in now then you AB no I mean many people have Renee Dart
34:13
in the 1600s asked the question how can I prove that I'm not dreaming all the
34:19
time he didn't know what a video game was but that's essentially what we're talking about he could not find a way to
34:25
prove that he's not just dreaming all of this I don't know why you would dream a zoom call to do a podcast when you could
34:30
dream a lot of different things but he pretty much believed that it was impossible to prove that you were not
34:36
dreaming and so this video game thing comes up and that's our sort of modern thing so Elon Musk actually says it's
34:42
like one in a billion chance that we are not in a video game right now that's
34:48
what he believes that's crazy or or that we would be able to created and future Generations would do that so that's
34:53
where we sort of are and but then what we talk about is that no matter what video game it is no matter what video
34:59
game it is it's going to be created by a computer and it's going to have a limit it's going to have a limit somewhere and the way that researchers researchers
35:06
believe that we can detect if we are in a computer simulation is to try and find that limit try to find where is the
35:13
outskirts where is the point where it's just polygons or whatever it is or you can't continue walking where is that
35:19
barrier and to test this they built computer simulators on a lattice and a quantum computer and they focused on
35:26
cosmic rays they focused on if they could determine that cosmic rays what
35:31
did okay they have a starting position the cosmic rays are atom fragments that come from outside the solar system they
35:38
don't give you superpowers just to clarify my earlier statements at least as far as I know cosmic rays they have a
35:44
finite amount of power and they deteriorate over time so that's interesting they try to determine why it
35:51
is that when every cosmic ray gets to earth eventually whether or not that's his design designation or not but all
35:58
the ones that get to earth they get to Earth with similar amounts of energy
36:03
which indicates to them if they're degrading over time if they're degrading
36:08
equivalently over time then they all started at the same place ah and that
36:15
there's the rub that's the rub that is that is the edge of the universe that is where the Creator is that is the point
36:22
of departure for these cosmic rays that are eventually coming at us it's weird
36:28
man it's it because the at the end of the day these theories shouldn't exist
36:33
with any kind of scientific proof if they didn't happen the way they ended up happening let's say they had the cosmic
36:38
R Theory but they came to us at different amounts of energy all over the place I don't know if you'd have a
36:44
cosmic ray theory if you were you might investigate it and you come to the conclusion oh okay so they're all
36:50
different I think what we're looking at at the in the same time when we look at these simulations we're looking at
36:56
constants and also looking at glitches they try to create the simulation that
37:01
has some rules to it those are the constants but we're also trying to see if there's glitches if they've messed it
37:06
up somehow because I don't think that any of us really believe that any simulation or or a computer game or
37:11
whatever would be perfect bugs and updates yeah there's going to be something somewhere where it just didn't all work out that there was a one where
37:18
there should have been a zero number six in 2015 a study from the Harvard SMI
37:25
smithonian Center for astrophysics suggested that life could have spread via Pam spermia moving star to star in
37:33
clusters and overlapping like bubbles in a pot of boiling water so this simulation also suggests that life could
37:39
have spread like an epidemic scientists tested two possibilities for bringing life to Earth One by asteroids and by
37:46
intelligent beings the result was that both were possible and would have followed the same pattern if correct
37:52
this study also indicates that life exists elsewhere in the Galaxy I kind of like this Theory because the idea is we
38:00
are studying asteroids from other kind of pass through Earth what or have hit the earth and we've taken stuff from
38:07
this and we've discovered that there's life and evidence of life outside of course of you know millions of light
38:12
years away on these rocks that they carry a history just the same way we find fossil fuels on our own Planet I
38:17
think this is where you can have your cake and eat it too if you're religious in the sense if you can believe if you want to believe in crism that it was
38:23
truly Adam and Eve it came out of the garden but why do we have dinosaurs I believe the Earth has other histories
38:30
that hit it that were parts or gr or taken from other parts of other planets and put onto this planet I don't know or
38:37
the dinosaurs are a glitch I don't know a lot of this is just insane to me I just don't understand what's happening
38:42
but I do believe there's life elsewhere and but what I find so frustrating about that idea that there is life elsewhere I
38:47
don't know why just I don't know why we're not in contact with them in a very public way curious why what the reasons
38:55
are that we just I don't know hey fellow planet people you know what's going on
39:01
over there how how you guys handling stuff do you ever watch Star Trek not really no well Star Trek has a
39:07
philosophy so their starship Enterprise it explores strange new worlds and new lives and civilizations but they have a
39:13
policy called the prime directive okay and the prime directive is they don't make contact with planets who don't have
39:18
technology uh at their level or higher their starship Enterprise was to actually contact our planet let's say
39:25
they wouldn't make contact with us because they have Tech ology that we don't have I think that's exactly it
39:30
it's sort of overwhelmingly arrogant to believe that we have it no one else does I wouldn't
39:37
expect them to be able maybe not even able to
39:42
communicate with us or understand us or or relate to us in any way if we made
39:48
contact with them they would likely be so much further advance from us would it be like us trying to communicate with a
39:54
slug I think so or or the way that we the way that we consider like the
39:59
populations of insects on our planet we do live amongst them but we certainly can't understand them and if they truly
40:06
are higher beings like we just stated and they are interested in what we're doing they are of such an intelligence
40:12
and understanding that they know that kind of like the prime directive sure that exposing themselves it might
40:19
satiate our curiosity but it does nothing for them they're not Kim Kardashians of the universe they don't
40:24
need likes and upvotes they know they exist they know of their understanding of the universe and they just will allow
40:30
us to get there when we're ready the only thing that may provoke them to introduced themselves off us if is if
40:37
they wanted the resources of our little ball of uh Rock here Transformers that's
40:42
what happened the Decepticons for our listeners who probably don't know so there was a battle on uh what was the
40:48
name of their planet again I don't remember the Nam so the Transformers lived on a robot robotic planet and they
40:54
had a civil war the Decepticons and the Transformers crash on Earth fleeing their planetary war and they needed to
41:01
leave the Earth to go back to their Planet but they needed energy from the Earth to fill up their cubes and the
41:08
Decepticons were willing to basically exploit the planet's resources and the and the Autobots were like no you're not
41:14
going to deplete this Earth's resources for our own needs we we suck we destroyed our own Planet it sucks for us
41:19
we're not going to so the Autobots they stop the Decepticons from usurping the Earth's resources true story history was
41:27
changed forever yes thankk you Optimus Prime for that so may he rest in peace
41:33
going back to some of the uh pop culture that I've absorbed about ener johon cubes that's what they you got it
41:41
sorry okay sorry I like what is that yeah used to fill up these I love the effect when they filled up the Enron
41:46
cubes okay sorry go on yeah there's a good amount of Pop Culture out there that does see either aliens as highly
41:53
Advanced benevolent entities or malevolent entities the Marvel com Universe has established a large number
42:00
of Godlike alien entities by benefit of their own separate Evolution they're
42:06
just so far beyond us some stories they are the reason why life exists here they were the directed pans spermia it is
42:14
interesting to think of them as either malevolent or benevolent I'm not sure in either instance whether I I want us to
42:20
make contact with those beyond our understanding sorts of entities this is
42:26
a scientific hint says that there was a study that said that it was equally
42:32
possible that it was directed pans spermia versus regular panspermia right
42:38
that's what this one is about so how would you even do a study I mean it's a lot of interrelated equations or lot of
42:47
math unobs yeah exactly unobservable sorts of conclusions that you go we crunched all the numbers
42:54
trying to explain to you how many numbers we crunched we couldn't do it but this is what we came up with is that
42:59
it's equally likely that involuntary asteroids brought it here as it is that
43:06
God through baseball so enough with the spermia let's move on to the next all right I think that is our last pan
43:11
spermia so for people that are looking for more pants speria content in the podcast form follow us uh on our new
43:19
podcast launching next week the best of the pants speria podcast Ryan very
43:24
excited to get into that with you yeah can't wait number five on our list evidence of a higher being this is what
43:32
we call physical constants according to theoretical physicist John Barrow we can
43:39
tell if the universe is a simulation by looking for mistakes or errors in it I
43:44
am presuming but I don't know have you seen the movie The Matrix oh yeah yeah yeah of course okay in the movie The
43:50
Matrix what is the glitch in The Matrix Ryan that's going to kill me I mean I've seen it multiple times but I haven't
43:56
seen it seen it twice in 20 years it feels like do you remember the cat the cat in the first Matrix movie and they
44:04
repeated this a couple of other times but the cat gave Neo a feeling of deja
44:09
vu Morpheus then explained to Neo Deja Vu or the feeling the perception the
44:16
internal thought that you have when you think that you're seeing the same thing you've seen before Deja Vu is how you
44:22
see a glitch in The Matrix and the way that Neo experiences was he saw the same at walking the same way and the same
44:29
place that he thought that he had before that's what that movie looked at and there's so much to explain about the
44:35
movie The Matrix and how it talks about computer simulations I think there are two kinds of computer simulation Theory
44:42
and you've discussed one which is the Sims Theory The Sims Theory I think can be described as God created a video game
44:51
and all of the characters and then and then at some point in that video game he gave the characters in the video game
44:58
Consciousness right right exactly so that's what it is to boil that down it is to say that human beings do not exist
45:06
but there are simulations of human beings that think that they exist and they live in a computer simulation right
45:13
you follow that that's the Sims computer simulation the difference with that and the Matrix simulation what is it that
45:21
there are things called human beings but they live in Vats of goo and they don't have any real experiences they just
45:28
think that they do as we talk about them and and what the Matrix posed and and what it said about we are all living on
45:35
a destroyed depleted resource planet and the machines make us think that we are experiencing things so that we create
45:41
some sort of something energy that allows them to whatever uh your Sims thing is sort of sadder is that humans
45:50
do not exist there's just a bunch of megabytes running around that think that they're humans and that they exist
45:57
that's a rougher one this this is what John Barrow was talking about there
46:02
would be notable glitches in The Matrix if it was a simulation such as changes
46:07
in physical constants these are physical properties like the speed of light okay we think that we've calculated the speed
46:13
of light it's math it's consistent in 2001 though Australian re researchers
46:20
discovered that the speed of light is slowing what do we do the speed of light is slower than we thought it was or it's
46:26
getting slower over time it slows down when it gets older speed of light is over the
46:33
hill you know something about that don't you Ryan oh stop it yikes yikes the
46:39
astronomer John web also discovered that light from aazar I I don't even want to
46:45
try and explain what a quazar is had absorbed the wrong type of photons on its 12 billion year journey to Earth so
46:52
why would it do that we believe that aazar should absorb certain types of of protons or photons it absorbed the wrong
46:58
kind why is it not following the rules we thought that there were rules so this is what he's saying this could only
47:04
happen the speed of light changes photons are the wrong ones could only happen if there was a change in a
47:11
physical constant no one is sure why physical constants stay constant but we have to rely on them we think that these
47:17
are the rules of the universe and if somehow the rules of the universe get broken well that's evidence of a glitch
47:24
that's evidence that we are either in a SS universe or in a matrix where we're
47:30
seeing some Deja Vu boy all I know is
47:35
that if this world was dependent on me to figure this stuff out we would be still eating raw meat well Sushi's
47:43
all right I guess if I live in that part of the world yeah I just I I don't even know how people figure this stuff out
47:50
even if all their theories are hogwash but the fact that they're able to piece together some sort of mathematical
47:56
equation and to think this way like to even measure the speed of light I I I don't understand hey wait a second there
48:02
they were getting the wrong quazar did you guys see that quazar it
48:09
had all the wrong photons on it all the wrong photons the the light reaching the Earth
48:16
isn't quite reaching at the speeds that we had so either the math was wrong at the beginning or it's right now or wrong
48:21
now I don't know a lot of times science can and should admit that it was wrong
48:26
yeah we're always trying to Endeavor to get better we are always trying to to better understand our universe and
48:33
what's going on and how can we uh if not manipulated at least adapt to what the
48:38
rules are the more knowledge that we have the better chances that we have to thrive and all of that what I think that
48:44
this is evidence of when your iPhone 4 just won't work anymore right I think I
48:50
feel like the simulator the developer of the simulation is given up on those
48:56
updates in that downloadable content yeah yeah that's interesting like is is our software patch need an update maybe
49:02
or ex do we need like who knows everything has a mathematical equation it just blows my mind that a universal
49:09
language is math so every scientific discovery is actually Through Math that it's proven why don't we use math to
49:16
prove God a 1940s physicist Kurt godell tried to prove the existence of God with
49:21
with mathematical proof it is based on this argument by St Asam of cabur so
49:27
here's the argument this is really interesting this is a great philosophical argument I think I like it
49:33
yeah it's good so number one there is a great being called God and nothing greater than God Can Be Imagined what is
49:41
more God than God can do all can know all like what is more than that how can
49:48
you know all plus one no my only thought to add to that is
49:53
why can't there be two there you could just say Gods that's fine so a God or Godlike individual and I don't think
50:00
that destroys his AR at all he just never refers to them in the plural say there is a great being called great
50:07
beings there you go or old powerful old knowing beings and nothing greater than old powerful old knowing being Can Be
50:12
Imagined so two God exists as an idea in the mind three with all other things
50:18
being equal a being that exists in both the mind and reality is better than a
50:24
being that only exists in the mind for therefore if God only exists in the mind
50:29
then it's possible that we can imagine a being more powerful in the mind if you have imagine for example Superman the
50:36
most powerful comic book then I can imagine Kryptonite that can injure him because you came up with the idea of God
50:44
there is nothing that is more powerful and all knowing than a God so how can God exist yeah it it would have to exist
50:50
or how did you come up with it there it is there it is dumb it down for people
50:56
like me number five thank you uh I don't have a doctor at anything I have a doctor's appointment but all right
51:06
five however that contradicts argument one because nothing greater than God Can Be Imagined so six therefore God exists
51:16
everything is contingent upon assuming there is a great being called
51:23
God and nothing greater than God Can Be Imagined all hinges on that this all
51:28
hinges on us all agreeing that this is correct the second part of that sentence
51:35
creates the first let's take it as just the second part of the sentence okay so
51:40
let's call number one nothing greater than God Can Be Imagined if there is the
51:46
greatest thing that thing is God and because we call it the greatest thing we
51:51
don't have a word for greater than greatest greatest is the greatest if there is a greatest thing we've just
51:57
named it as the greatest thing that ever can be IM imagined that's the semantics of it nothing greater than God Can Be
52:04
Imagined because we've imagined it number two God exists as an idea in the mind of course we've imagined it the
52:11
definition of an imagining is an idea in the mind so boom you got number one and number two right there the third one is
52:18
weird the way it's phrased because I don't like this whole with all other things being equal okay sure that's St
52:23
asam's wording but yeah being that exists in both the mind and reality is better than a being that only exists in
52:29
the mind sure it's not to say that you can't imagine something that doesn't exist but it is to say if you have an
52:37
imagination that's cool but if that thing actually existed
52:42
it would be greater than the thing that you imagine and we're talking about the greatest thing so what we're saying is
52:50
if you imagined a thing and it existed that thing that exists is greater than your imagined thing and then they say
52:57
therefore if God only exists in the mind then it's possible that we can imagine it being more powerful than God if God
53:05
only exists in the mind then that thing that exists in the mind and in reality
53:11
is greater so that thing in your mind is not the greatest thing you're not actually thinking of the greatest thing
53:17
because you haven't gone far enough to put it in reality yet and then they say however that contracts argument one
53:23
because nothing greater than God can be existed and that's what we said nothing greater can God Can Be Imagined and so
53:30
therefore God exists because if you can imagine it that's cool but it would be greater if you imagin it and it existed
53:36
and so then that's the greatest thing you've now trumped your own imagination and it must exist because that's the
53:42
greatest thing it's circular and that's why it proves itself good old philosophy
53:48
loves to uh loves to be circular they're just substituting the word God for the greatest possible thing
53:54
that's all they're doing what you essentially say at the end therefore the greatest possible thing exists okay I
54:02
believe you you know number three here this piece of
54:09
evidence that a higher power exists is the fact that reality doesn't exist
54:15
unless we're looking at it there was a philosopher that came up with this one didn't philosophy lessons I remember
54:21
from many moons ago but I forget the guy's name the idea that if we're not observing that universe is it's
54:26
literally not existing behind us when we close the door well that is one of the tenants of very very longstanding
54:33
principle of philosophy called empiricism Dart was the one that said there's nothing empirically that can
54:39
prove that I'm not dreaming he could not come up with anything he was a skeptic and so everything was subject to doubt
54:46
every smell every taste every feel every view I suppose so all of that was
54:51
subject to doubt and he just tore himself apart he could not prove any of that was real
54:56
but in this instance a video game is parts of code and those parts of code
55:02
allow you to experience and see and interact with different things but only while you're there there's a million
55:09
different open world games that are so expansive but it's not showing you everything at the same time when you're
55:15
on level two in Super Mario you're not seeing level 10 it's there once you get
55:21
there but that's sort of the process of a computer saving processing space and I mean what good would it do to show you a
55:28
level you're not on anyways what this piece of evidence proposes is the mysterious phenomenon in quantum
55:35
mechanics called superposition a superposition is when you're looking at
55:40
like say you're looking at a wall you're looking at a bunch of atoms and a bunch of neutrons protons electrons
55:47
interacting with each other to create a wall but once you get down and actually
55:52
observe what's going on in the quantum space of that wall you would be
55:58
observing things that are not really meant to be observed and what that means
56:03
is that they have not this is the really weird thing they have not really decided what they are yet yes yes yeah they
56:10
exist in a state of superp position because they're not really meant to be observed so they're either an electron
56:17
or or what what we have here is deciding in a dual state where subatomic particles are either waves or they're
56:24
particles so something could be a wave where it is not defined as a particle
56:29
object something that is described as like a singular item that you would see breaking down it's just not meant to be
56:36
viewed that way but once we break it down we get subatomic we use certain instruments and we look at it it changes
56:43
into what it is either a particle or a wave as we look at it that is the
56:48
evidence that the code is really working to give us the perception that we need
56:54
which is five senses and and this and that and we're using these new scientific instruments to really get
57:00
behind the scenes and behind the scenes is not meant to be viewed it's not even in a state right now it's in a state of
57:07
uncertainty because it's really not expecting you to look at it it really hasn't decided what it is they make this
57:14
anthropomorphization of these tiny tiny tiny subatomic particles is that they
57:19
are not what they are until we look at them and then they decide and so that's I've heard of that exp that's crazy
57:26
shinger cat was the response to this quantum mechanics announcement that they
57:32
came up with superpositioning in this announcement or in in this rebuttal to Super positioning he said that stating
57:39
that something is either a wave or a particle until you look at it is like saying a cat in a box is both dead and
57:49
alive until you open the box to see right he came up with all of these other
57:54
different things to explain why the why you would put a cat in a box and it might die while it was in the box and I
58:00
won't get into all of that but essentially he was saying if we are cut off from observing something then we
58:06
cannot know what it is and once we look at it we sort of make it what it is we
58:12
deter and until then it's both and we have to admit that shinger didn't like
58:18
that but that's what we are here and I think that these foundations of our reality which as we're boiling it down
58:24
to quantums and this and that the these foundations of our reality are maybe indicators that this is that other side
58:30
of the map on Red Dead Redemption where there's a coding there for you to be able to see it but it's not there until
58:37
you get there the idea that something hasn't decided yet like things that we
58:42
take for granted that the door is the door the windows the window but it's it doesn't know what it is until we look at
58:48
it that's a really odd basically it snaps to attention when we're in its presence you're right you're right maybe
58:55
you explain by some people people that say perception is reality in the sense that we sort of make the world what it
59:01
is by the way that we can observe it or maybe that explains drugs and LSD and
59:06
acid they find another level of existence or they find another reality
59:11
the idea yeah what they're their observable universe that's why they they're scared and they Panic they have bugs crawling on their skin in their
59:17
reality they do in their reality they do and they create that themselves by what they've done you know to their five
59:23
senses or their mind or what have interesting yeah all right number two in 1997 theoretical physicist Juan
59:33
Melina propos that our universe is a two-dimensional hologram completely flat
59:39
that we perceive in three dimensions so tiny strings called gravitons vibrate to create this holographic Universe if
59:46
correct this would help solve some differences between quantum mechanics and Einstein's theory of gravity so some
59:54
studies show that a 2d universe is possible Japanese researchers computed the internal energy of a black hole The
1:00:01
Event Horizon position and other properties in a 3D World and then computed the same in a 2d world with no
1:00:08
gravity the calculations matched another model showed that the universe is a 2d
1:00:15
if SpaceTime is flat researchers at firy laab are using
1:00:20
a giant laser to quote look for holographic noise which is evidence of buffering in the cosmos if a 3D
1:00:28
holographic Universe built on a 2d system of moving lines like those of coding legs that strongly indicates that
1:00:36
the universe is a simulation a flat simulation like you would look at in
1:00:41
your computer screen what I found interesting here was when they took away gravity there are some speculation that
1:00:48
gravity itself is not a proven science that we don't know what gravity is I
1:00:54
think Neil deg grassy has actually said this before that we actually don't know
1:00:59
what gravity is but what I'm getting at that's what they're do with the 2D model is they making our world flat and
1:01:06
they're saying you take away the gravity in a 2d World it has the same calculations as a 3D 3D World with
1:01:13
gravity so something to do something to do with gravity it is something to do with gravity and I think maybe what
1:01:19
they're getting at and what I'm looking at this as if the 2D world is a
1:01:24
simulation do we agree that this is some sort of a another simulation argument that we're looking at here yeah well I
1:01:30
think the idea that it's a 2d hologram so not just a simulation so much it's almost a that there's buffering that you
1:01:37
know it's almost like it's it's almost like a projection from something there's certainly room in Philosophy for
1:01:43
allegories of projection have you heard of Plato's Cave what they believe that they're experiencing as reality in the
1:01:49
cave is actually Shadows on a wall right but because of their conditioning and
1:01:55
because don't know anything else they perceive that is all that there is and they create their own perception of it
1:02:02
is altered to think that this is what reality is when it's very clearly just Shadows on a wall this is a 2d hologram
1:02:09
a 2d simulation that the reason why we perceive it in 3D could be that
1:02:16
additional component of whatever gravity is there's got to be some reason they
1:02:22
being the creators of this 2D hologram there's got to be some way that they think that they can fool
1:02:28
us into thinking it's 3D and the secret sauce is gravity whatever gravity is and
1:02:34
it's not maybe it's not constant enough for us to really call it a law of nature or this and that and I think that's what
1:02:40
you were getting at but we do know that it's important and if this was a 2d
1:02:45
hologram being projected at us and we believe it's 3D well maybe the reason we believe it's 3D is because of whatever
1:02:52
gravity is whatever it is it may not be a law of nature it may not be constant enough uh there may be glitches in it
1:02:59
and things that can't be explained it would have to be the 2D hologram plus something in order for us to think that
1:03:05
it's 3D I don't feel gravity I just know we don't float I don't know it's weird
1:03:11
you know that we don't float we don't float all right you have the last one I do I have the last one and this one is
1:03:16
somewhat different than some of the others what this one is is called coding in the cosmos so there is a theoretical
1:03:23
physicist named Sylvester James Gates he's a very well-dressed man fantastic beard I really love his look he says
1:03:30
that there's compelling evidence suggesting that we're living in a simulation while working on Super string
1:03:35
equations with adinkras which is a algebraic symbol this man found coding
1:03:43
created by another mathematician that was called doubly even self-dual linear
1:03:49
binary error correcting block codes now if you're interesting in more chat about
1:03:54
dou e self-dual linear binary error correcting block codes listen to M and
1:04:00
Ryan's new podcast the worst of the doubly even self dual linear binary
1:04:06
error correcting block codes coming to your podcast soon Gates questioned if
1:04:11
this basic coding is somehow responsible for controlling the universe and what he said was that these adinkras which are
1:04:20
call it equations but they look have you seen the word the the movie Goodwill Hunting we've talked about Goodwill
1:04:25
Hunting right these this math that doesn't even look like math it's symbols it s of looks like hieroglyphics they
1:04:32
call it math it's like how equations work out when you put thousands of them together I suppose so he says that these
1:04:39
equations these adenas are the equations that we want to use to describe the
1:04:45
cosmos and so that's the language that I would use that's the evidence that we're talking about here the scientific hint
1:04:52
is these equations that we want to use to determine the cosmos look like
1:04:58
computer code they are almost indistinguishable he said from the computer code that goes into a Google
1:05:04
search that's what he used right so you can imagine computer code and coding and the way that you know you want to
1:05:10
instruct a computer processor with instructions when we come up with
1:05:16
equations to describe our universe they look just like that and he says that these are highly technical references
1:05:23
that him and his team have only been working on for two years that almost nobody in the world would
1:05:28
understand but he just sees these similarities between Google code and other computer code ones and zeros and
1:05:36
what have you with these adinkras which are these massively compiled equations and he says these codes may be
1:05:42
ubiquitous in nature and could even be embedded in the essence of reality when you say the word embedded you're talking
1:05:48
about code you know that's what he's saying so he's trying to describe our reality or our understanding of reality
1:05:54
in these computers terms and he also calls it technical gobbley so that's
1:06:00
what we're dealing with here number one on our list scientific hint is a bunch of technical
1:06:07
gobbley my brain's fried this one was so tough to
1:06:12
understand I didn't know what he was saying he's showing these symbols I think I saw one of his videos I swear it
1:06:18
was this guy and he was basically just saying that he's literally has seen code in the
1:06:23
ground right right that's what they're trying to that's what they're trying to say to us it's code in the equations
1:06:29
that we try to use to explain the ground right it's this much longer much longer
1:06:37
explanation of what it is well I hope our listeners first and foremost at the
1:06:42
at the end of the day we want our listeners to maybe challenge their maybe not challenge their own beliefs but just
1:06:47
uh think about what it what does it mean to be here maybe the science helps explain it maybe the idea there's a higher being that helps you feel more
1:06:54
calm about being here that you're life is not nistic there's a reason why you're here things do matter you can
1:06:59
learn and live and grow while you're here great minds are trying to figure out hey what is
1:07:06
here why is here always I'm always interested in trying to to answer these sort of
1:07:13
unanswerable questions I don't know what it would mean to the common person to have a higher understanding I don't know
1:07:18
if we I mean Elon Musk was very very clear when he said and we've dealt with
1:07:23
several of these that deal with computer simulation one of the various types that he didn't seem to mind the thought it
1:07:30
may or may not be releasing for people maybe to understand what it is that
1:07:36
they're dealing with maybe it gives their lives more importance less importance less stress or less pressure
1:07:42
or what have you I'm not sure what what would your thought be if you found out tomorrow that it's all a video game CH I
1:07:49
wouldn't do anything harmful I would well yeah like I wouldn't like I would sound like The
1:07:56
Purge you know I would go and start murdering killing that's not the direction I was
1:08:02
headed would just sort of lose meaning in their life and they start more CTIC I
1:08:07
I guess S I guess what I'm trying to say is if it was the idea that nothing would change no if I found out was a old
1:08:13
simulation well within this game I'm going to play by the rules I don't want to go to jail uh and you're doing pretty well you
1:08:20
got you got a nice family well that's what I mean like I guess that's what I'm trying to say is I'm not express myself
1:08:25
very well you're winning the game no what I mean is like yeah if I literally found out proof that we are in a
1:08:31
simulation well within the simulation what I'm experiencing I don't want to go to jail I want to have a job I want to
1:08:37
take care of my family the relationships I have with my wife and kids and parents and brothers and friends the podcast I'm
1:08:43
doing I don't I wouldn't want to change anything because for for whatever reason this is the existence I'm existing in
1:08:49
however got here I think that I would probably go the same way there's a lot of different maybe hypotheticals in pop
1:08:54
culture that this whole thing and the person always tends to go crazy or what have you you
1:09:02
may have some people like that but uh it would be I think I think there would be a lot like that I think there might be a little bit more like people already
1:09:10
are uh egotistical narcissist and uh sociopath so I think if they were given
1:09:15
true knowledge that life could be Grand Theft Auto with no consequences I think
1:09:20
we might have issues if scientists figured it out do you think they will be right to not tell us I think it would be
1:09:27
their right to tell us I think it would be their I mean it would be their duty to tell us like they've always told us what they found I think withholding it
1:09:34
just because they discovered it then they're making the moral choice for us I don't think they have though they had the brains to figure out and I
1:09:40
appreciate that I appreciate their understanding but then what gives them that right to withhold information it
1:09:47
would just be paternalism it would just be oh we've decided that withholding this information is best for the planet
1:09:53
well then we ride in the street and burn down businesses we wouldn't if we didn't know no we wouldn't if we if
1:09:59
they withheld it from us and we didn't know they withheld us from us we would not know we would know we'd find out just like we're finding out right now
1:10:05
that they're looking there's no way that people like Elon Musk at least is all a con and join us on our next episode of
1:10:11
another conspiracy theory episod we've launched several new podcasts during this episode I'm thrilled all right well
1:10:17
let's run down the 10 and I guess for the criteria for me I think the criteria will be what is the least likely to be
1:10:24
true oh really least likely to be I'm not going with that I what's your
1:10:30
reasoning the one that didn't seem the best explained at least in my mind you
1:10:36
know um well that could fall into the one that's it it it certainly could like just didn't give me enough to think it
1:10:42
was true there's one on this list that I just really don't like I mean with several of them sort of covering the
1:10:47
same territory I think that there's clear vagueness to some of them where
1:10:53
the other ones were so how I'm looking at it is all of them are true except for one okay if that makes sense
1:11:02
like you know pan spermia computer simulation don't you yeah the spermia
1:11:07
spermia is definitely H happening you know you've got the piece of evidence in number 10 that is it it's just so
1:11:14
impossible that life would exist and you talk about the higs field uh that's your little piece of evidence and number nine
1:11:20
the piece of evidence is a little ball that a guy said that he found that shows directed pans spermia uh in number eight
1:11:27
the piece of evidence that I think we looked at is that there's some researchers claim that they saw somebody's signature in the DNA right so
1:11:34
that's our piece of evidence like a c card right number seven the evidence that we think that we found the
1:11:40
scientific hint would be the fact that cosmic rays all come from the same place if we look at their amount of energy
1:11:47
number six the one that we found is that there's a study that shows that it is mathematically just as possible of
1:11:54
directed pans spermia as indirected or regular pans spermia so
1:11:59
that that's a study not a ball that they found but a study I'm going to say it as many times as possible Ryan this is the
1:12:05
worst of the pans spermia podcast number five we just see the piece of evidence that we found was that the speed of
1:12:11
light is slowing and that may mean that physical constants are breaking down number four the one that you talked
1:12:17
about at length and we tried to break down was godel's ontological proof the circular logic that gets you to the fact
1:12:24
that the the greatest thing ever is the greatest thing ever number three is the one that reality doesn't exist until
1:12:30
we're looking at it the piece of evidence is superpositioning number two is your holographic principle which
1:12:35
people have studied that if not for Gravity everything is 2D so there's your evidence there and the one that we found
1:12:42
number one is that adinkras look like computer code that's our evidence you
1:12:49
want to say what your least favorite was thank for that rundown as always you're you're very intelligent well spoken
1:12:54
individual I'm just a schut I don't know what I'm doing over here you don't have to say that about yourself I'm sure our
1:13:00
comments and followers you know will do that for you oh thank you I think the one for me the my criteria for worst of
1:13:06
the best proof that there is a higher being out there is uh the holographic
1:13:12
principle that we're a 2D image on a screen almost that we're just a projection of some sort of reality I
1:13:18
tend to lean towards more computer simulation or coding it within the network of our life I I get behind that
1:13:24
more than just the fact that we are literally a no gravity 2D projection you
1:13:30
know for a list like this where there's so many different ideas I I guess I am maybe a little surprised but we agree oh
1:13:37
wowe wow we do this one did the worst job of of sort of selling me on that
1:13:44
yeah that's the way I look at it was the one that yeah if that's what I mean if I had to if I had to put money down on
1:13:49
nine of them and not one of them it'd be this one yeah absolutely the Bey the of
1:13:55
all this is uh Drew we actually have no idea no no
1:14:01
clue we we could spend thousands more dollars on education and still not know
1:14:07
but number 10 for me is the most important one the fact that we exist yes
1:14:12
is the biggest I think that that's probably the the biggest one I it's it's not quite with some evidence with some
1:14:19
oomph to it this field about this ghost energy field saying just the idea that
1:14:26
we exist just the idea that we are is to me evidence that something is going
1:14:32
on I'm with you I'm with you I don't think it's unintentional I really don't no I don't worship I don't worship that
1:14:39
Creator as an un followable moral guide but I do believe that there was some
1:14:44
sort of a Creator or multiple creators I do and then does that Creator love us that's that's the philosophical question
1:14:52
that's the religious question that's the spiritual question does that which created us love us I don't you know me
1:14:58
I've always been pretty outright that I'm I know that I'm undeserving of love and I never will be uh so I have no I
1:15:04
have no expectations on that in right all right well on on that
1:15:12
note remember front of every Silver Lining there's a cloud and we're here to
1:15:17
help you find it thank you so much Drew for coming on I do appreciate it it's good to hear your voice again I'm sure we'll have you on again it's been a
1:15:23
pleasure I'm glad to see that you're doing well and uh brace for winter it's coming my man it is coming that is
1:15:29
another constant in this in this simulation whoever programmed this why
1:15:34
couldn't they just make it tropical weather all year long I don't know if your winter is one degree warmer than
1:15:40
usual it's a glitch in The Matrix Ryan these constants all right brother
1:15:47
have a good one have a very good day take care everyone and again congratulations to insert edit here Mr
1:15:53
Biden all right all the best us all right brother take care take care
1:16:00
of yourself bye D Gator Productions [Music]

All

For you
