Paul Davies - Gap Between Non-Life and Life

"To go from a bacterium to people is less of a step than to go from a mixture of amino acids to a bacterium." - Lynn Margulis, agnostic biologist and ex-wife of Carl Sagan

Thank God for this program! Who else gets down to the real questions and finds original thinkers like Mr. Davies to take them on? It gives me hope that this is a rational world with a real purpose. Keep going please!

Im with Paul on this one, life is so complex and interdependent.

Always enjoy Paul Davies talks, he seems to have a no nonsense and understandable way of explanation on a subject.

Wow. Genuine respect for Paul Davies here, demonstrating genuine humility and honesty like a "true scientist" and not like a politician spinning some rubbish in order to defend an ideological perspective. Kudos! 👏

I respect that man a lot. There's a risk in scientific dogma and a true scientist knows a lot of stuff but also knows what they don't know.

Thank you for addressing the haunting questions too many gloss over.

I don't usually watch this channel because of the way the interviewer constantly interrupts the guests and injects himself into the conversation too much. But this topic is so interesting I had to power through it. Good video
