There are a lot of unknowns at play but in the main Turek is of course wrong, but it's interesting how people respond to this sort of debate/combat. To be honest, I know I'm not going to watch a 2 hour video and change my mind about intelligent design and so my interest becomes wanting to see Hitchens slide in and slice the dude with his dry razor wit. Which leaves me maybe worse off than before because rather than updating my beliefs by trying to learn something of worth from Turek, I'm thirsting for confirmation of my priors. But yea, it's 2018, I don't have time for this. I've been glancing into Spinoza some lately. His God is physics in some sense but he's got some things to say about how we can best adapt our selves to the natural world within and all around us. Seems like he may survive neuroscience cracking open the mind.
