Meanwhile, he holds firm to an ancient fable that not only has no evidence to support it's tales, there are mountains of evidence falsifying the very stories he's trying to defend. Anything positive he might try to offer in the way of traditional education or mental health, despite being well-intentioned, is automatically voided by his impossible stance against reality.

I saw a shortened version of this discussion on Dawkin's broadcast on the dangers of religion. I remember thinking that Rabbi Gluck did not come across well As I look years later at the full interview, I see it very differently. As a secular Londoner who was born Jewish I think the Rabbi handled himself extremely well. I very much admire Dawkins and believe he is right about the age of the earth and always going by the best evidence. However the Rabbi made very good points which Dawkins agreed with regarding Ireland and the fact that state schools might "produce" a more dangerous individual than a faith based school. As a Jew who is very much aware, as Dawkins is, about the staggeringly disproportionate number of Nobel prizes awarded to Jews and their utterly disproportionate contribution in general to science, the arts and values I find myself now thinking that Rabbi Gluck's school probably produced very nice students. Maybe they were not taught correct science but I am confident they had the capacity to work that out later on, and that's fine by me.

When the rabbi discusses the “oral Torah” early in the interview, I don’t think he makes it sufficiently clear that new interpretations and new understanding of the Law, which is constantly evolving, is not merely a matter of opinion, or of authority, but must be supported with a set of coherent arguments and evidence. Only those ideas that survive critical scrutiny are deemed acceptable. And by the way, this process falls entirely within the realm of human intellect, without divine intervention. This style of reasoning and critical thinking is very similar to the scientific method, except that rather than relying on empirical evidence, it is based on scripture, which is regarded as divinely inspired. I feel that this manner of thinking, dialog, and debate, when directed toward the study and interpretation of the secular, natural world, yields great scholarly accomplishment. I can’t prove my argument, but it seems plausible. Otherwise, I’m at a loss to understand it.

In my opinion, the most damaging aspect of religion is that it breaks your brain by forcing you to believe even if your brain is screaming " it doesn't make sense!!!!! ". Why doesn't anyone talk more about the origin of religion? The bottom line is that powerful people (kings, lords, tribe chiefs, emperors, etc) used the "God talked to me" line to legitimize themselves and then make peasants obey and serve. Recent studies are starting to find that religious people are more gullible. This is a problem when we have to go to vote. Religious people will tend to believe the promises (lies) made by corrupt politicians even if the evidence is appalling. When religion forces you to believe irrational concepts, their goal is to brainwash you into disregarding the evidence. Trust in the LORD with all thine; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

I was a skeptic and had a distaste for anything "religious". I saw it as a fun killer. I still tolerate one's right to practice their religion even idol worship, flowers offered to gods and deities in Eastern cultures as long as there's no harm done to others. I was brought up Catholic, tried to obey the rules and be a good person with gritted teeth. Looking back, I can see that I was an uncaring and hard hearted person with a chip on my shoulder and unable to move out of that position. I needed an experience that would wipe out the pain of losing a father I loved and who left me and started another family. There was other baggage I could not resolve. I also became the problem in our marriage. Finally after being shamed and embarrassed by separations in the presence of friends with some skepticism, I accepted Jesus to be Lord of my life. I surrendered like a little child and was surprised by the transformation where bitterness and jealousy were smoothed over by a healing balm. I saw the world with new eyes. How can one argue and deny such an experience when peace and tranquility enters one's life? It was like being switched on for the first time since birth. I can't wait for science to validate what I call a supernatural experience and hold me to its scrutiny. Science is at odds with the supernatural. It is beyond the scope of science. That's why its called Supernatural.

Science has drawn a boundary around its domain of authority, to include the physical natural universe and nothing else. Applying this ontological boundary, science limits itself from casting judgment on whatever might fall outside that boundary. This does not stop many scientists from claiming knowledge about matters they have explicitly excluded from their purview. I’ve never had any sort of transcendental experience, and I’m not looking for one. As an ardent scientist, I’m happy and comfortable with naturalism and empiricism, but I wonder why so many science zealots feel it’s their duty to render judgment about beliefs that fall outside the domain of science.

Judaism's "evolution" isn't as simple as Catholicism becoming Protestantism and becoming modern day reformed liberal churches. The "evolution" in Judaism is only restricted to legal aspects. There isn't actually an agreed fixed theology in Judaism; someone who doesn't believe in God, or believes that God is Satan and call themselves a Satan worshipper can still be a Jew, and a rabbi, and a good rabbi on top of that. In fact there are many Ultra-Orthodox Hardcore Conservative Rabbis that would be willing to accept the theory of evolution and that the world is billions of years old. And they will teach this to people who are less religious to help them reconcile their beliefs about science and religion and open a pathway back for them to practice Jewish law. However, teaching that to someone religious is problematic because it makes one question the literal reading of the text and will affect how someone walks their religious life in regards to the practical aspects. As the rabbi in the video said, the stories mean more to people if they are true stories or at least believed to be as such. The difference between Orthodox Judaism and Reform Judaism isn't theology about these trivial things, it's about how strictly they practice Jewish law. And in Reform Jewish circles where things like evolution are more defended vs young earth ideas, the people are just less strict about Jewish law. Hence why, it is important that the stories do not evolve, because it would lead people to stop following the "evolved" law. Tl;dr Judaism is all about laws and not beliefs.

Neither religion or the theory of evolution have the answers we seek. The missing link is still missing as is the presence of the gods of religions. Surely being open minded and humble enough to admit we have much to learn about the universe and life would be a better approach.

Good conversation to reveal how these religions operate specially Abrahamic religions. The end story is that all of them are a way of business and making a living for people like the rabbi here and the power structure that needs to control the minds of its citizens and followers for their own benefits. The rabbi says I was not alive then to know if the age of earth is more than what I say. My question to him: “Moses never existed. How do you know he existed since you were not there to see he existed?” By the way, the answer is that Moses never existed. All is made up stories and myth. Including Jesus.

So the summary of the rabbi's best arguments are that science isn't 100% correct and therefore the religious answer stands. That really shows the awful point, religion offers 'the answer', science finds 'an answer' and if a better or improved one comes along, supported by better evidence, it changes to that.

Rabbi is way more intelligent than Dawkins assumed, so too are Jewish children. Their education is on par up to date and if not better than secular. Dawkins stands arrogantly on "evidence" experts in the field which he isn't, only in his, like radiometric dating do not admit its infallibility. Not all scientists are evolutionists as Dawkins tries selling, John Lennox etc. If a margin of error taught the same but interpreted by those taught, gets billions of years in difference shows fundamental flaws. The age of the earth "scientifically" changes in terms of millions annually due to new unexplained discoveries Dawkins fails to admit.

the rabbi his denial feels like pulling teeth. would be refreshing to see that people can scrap the non-sense in holy books or put footnotes to explain why people thought in a certain way 100's or 1000's of years back. Some parts of scriptures do have some value of wisdom. funny that he says that parts are discussed and then not amended. We can learn allot from stories, but the more accurate the story, the better the information that it can convey. so much incongruency in humanity, and some or much of it is based on wrong understanding due to so called holy scripture. More objective and factual insight please

I like this rabbi. It's religion that bothers me. Dawkins is trying to convince a rabbi to not be a rabbi and change his beliefs. He should not do that during his first meeting with the guy. Get to know the Rabbi first so you know how to communicate with him without saying things that infer that he is teaching children absurd things. Rabbis live and think within a structure and constraints and tradition. The rabbi has chosen certain beliefs that can not be absolutely proven. They look obvious or true but the problem is that we, as humans, know absolutely nothing because things like the Big Bang are totally not understood, yet taken as truth. That bothers me a lot.

If it bothers you, then study it. The rapid expansion of the universe (Big Bang) is well understood by scientists right up to the first seconds. We can't all be experts in every subject, but we can learn from those who are.

@@iamalmostanonymous Experts, in this case are people who have studied, not who know any truth. The experts listen to are the ones who admit that they know absolutely no truth and can only help us save time by avoiding useless information. There are smart experts and stupid ones. The smart ones know that their knowledge has not to do with fact and truth and the stupid ones think that a lot of it is based in fact. I understand that the Big Bang is accepted by the smart ones as looking like it was the beginning and the cause is unknown. From doing research, it seems that the Big Bang is the scientific answer to when god created everything. Of course the timing is much different by billions of years. The science big bang happened several billion years ago, while the god Big Bang happened thousands of years ago(about 5300 years ago by the Old Testament). The time discrepancy makes the 2 things very different. There is no truth or fact, only theory and belief and trust. The god people trust in holy scripture and that it comes from the entity who created everything. There is no valid scientific verification of those holy books and no proof as to who wrote them. The only thing that makes sense to me is to learn and question things. Another way is to choose to believe a particular interpretation of the holy scriptures of one of the religions or create your own. So let's say one goes for the god route. Then one must decide on an interpretation to believe. How does one choose what to believe? Flip a coin many times? Or spend one's life trying to figure it all out. There are alternatives like digging into oneself using tools like meditation to find god within oneself. I prefer the latter because there is no need to choose holy books and the thousands or maybe millions of permutations of interpretations. The main step one must take in order to find truth is to start by accepting total ignorance Instead of flipping coins to decide on what to believe. Those billions of humans who chose holy books could not accept not knowing and figured that by choosing to believe, they suddenly came out of ignorance into the land of knowing. It makes no sense but even smart folks go that way. I have listened to religious leaders sound like fools the way they speak about god and truth. They often support their beliefs saying things like "where would we be without jesus or Mohammed" and how would we know about morality and right from wrong? They suggest things like mankind would have no morals without religion. The crusades, the Spanish Inquisition, and all the holy wars responsible for millions of killings, tortures and suffering in the name of religion, our moral teacher. It's absurd. Those leaders are ridiculous. Choosing to believe things is a very strange concept that is about to destroy America. Donald trump has created a cult based on a web of proven lies that millions of Americans have accepted as one of their holy books. Since they grew up choosing to believe religious stuff, it is easy for them to believe anything and truth has little to do with it. Another example of the absurdity of choosing to believe.
