1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: Now here's a highlight from Coast to Coast AM on 2 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:06,720 Speaker 1: iHeart Radio and welcome back to Coast to Coast. George 3 00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:09,280 Speaker 1: Nori with you along with doctor Jeffrey Simmons, as we 4 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 1: talk about one of his latest works, Are We Here 5 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:15,160 Speaker 1: to Recreate Ourselves? You've written so many books, Jeffrey, I 6 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:17,520 Speaker 1: can't keep track of with it. What is the latest? 7 00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:19,680 Speaker 1: Is it this one? Yeah, it is this one. I'm 8 00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:21,079 Speaker 1: working on something, but it will be a couple of 9 00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 1: years probably in doing Yeah, this is a nagging kind 10 00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 1: of pattern that I kept seeing and thinking about when 11 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:35,720 Speaker 1: I was writing the other two, and I began to 12 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:38,600 Speaker 1: wonder if we haven't you know, there's a lot of 13 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 1: reasons or purposes to life, and depending on who you 14 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 1: are and what your religious outlook is or a variety 15 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: of other issues, what's the purpose of life? And of 16 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 1: course in there is glorify Gods, serve God, teach God, 17 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:59,400 Speaker 1: our sister Teresa, help the poor, or help the lame, 18 00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: or or help the ill, or you know, to make 19 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 1: money or if your family oriented, you know, to raise 20 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,400 Speaker 1: a family. There's a lot of purposes and maybe all 21 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:12,400 Speaker 1: of them or you can mix and match. But is 22 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 1: it possible that one of the purposes is to recreate ourselves. 23 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 1: And if one starts looking at this, this pattern to 24 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: me jumps off the page and I had to put 25 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: it down, and it's putting it down turns into a book. 26 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: And for instance, UM take um uh say, cave drawings 27 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 1: and move that through history to UM paintings and to 28 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 1: U sculptures and to UM mannequins, to robots U and 29 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: into humanoids. There's one pattern. But if you also take 30 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: uh say, lightning, striking sand and making glass and then 31 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 1: picking up glass that magnifies things, and then making glasses 32 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: and making binoculars and making telescopes and making video and 33 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 1: uh and and making cameras, and all of a sudden 34 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: you have robotic eyes. So we were another aspect of 35 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: recreating ourselves. Uh, we've we're making h animals that not animals, 36 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: but robots that walk a variety of legs and arms 37 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: and that sort. But we've come around to pretty much 38 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 1: making one with arms, two arms, and two legs, and 39 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: that seems to be a good good pattern to follow. Uh, 40 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,360 Speaker 1: we're making it. Take hearing, I mean it used to 41 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 1: behold your hand behind your ear to hear, and then 42 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 1: there was this trumpet, and then there was a hearing aid, 43 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: and now the cochlear plan, you know, and so we 44 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: have robotic hearing, we have robotic vision, and now they 45 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: want to put chips in our brains. They do and 46 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 1: uh and and the computer is uh sort of the 47 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 1: apicus uh from the Cabbage Babbage computer and the sliding rule. 48 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 1: And we went to a computer and we're going to 49 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 1: have a robot with a brain. And so we're making 50 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 1: everything like a person in very much the same way, 51 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: and it's looking more and more like a person. In fact, 52 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 1: they have humanoids greeting people shoppers in Japan to speak 53 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: twenty seven languages and they look and kind of talk 54 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: like people. China has robots who actually give the news 55 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: or robotic type of secret. Those are called humans that 56 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: they have. British played with their brains. Yeah, that could be. 57 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: Maybe that's it. The Communist Party today did something wonderful. Well, 58 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: it could be if you look at these patterns. And 59 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: my book is three hundred pages worth of these patterns. 60 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 1: That and and mimicking things, and it talks about other 61 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: things along the way, and then talks about intelligent design. 62 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: But why are we doing this it's not just what 63 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,479 Speaker 1: we're doing it, but why are we doing this? And 64 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: one might say this is well, whoever first of all 65 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: warfare and whoever controls the planet, and warfare is one 66 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 1: of them, and robots surely is where we are going 67 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: to fight with. Whoever controls space probably controls Earth. And 68 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 1: so we are going to have robotic type figures and 69 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 1: we already had a half a humanoid on the International 70 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,039 Speaker 1: Space Station. We are going to if we make it 71 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,479 Speaker 1: to Mars, we're going to have robotic figures doing the 72 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 1: building for us. Would we be the gods to the robots? Well, 73 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: you know it's it's a good question, and we could 74 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: program that. Uh, but you know what's gonna if you're 75 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 1: gonna If we're gonna go beyond Mars, which I don't 76 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 1: think given the information we have now medically or human wise, 77 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: we can go beyond Jupiter is a four and a 78 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:23,840 Speaker 1: half five times further. And beyond that you can't put 79 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: a person into suspended animation. I think on Earth for 80 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 1: five years to see if it works. Who on Earth 81 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: is going to volunteer for that? Uh, you can't. We 82 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:37,280 Speaker 1: don't think we can reproduce have babies on the way 83 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: to and drama strain because all the cosmic uh particles, 84 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 1: they already caused things something called space brain and some 85 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 1: of our astronauts. So I don't think people are going 86 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,479 Speaker 1: to be able to make it to outer space, especially 87 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:57,359 Speaker 1: beyond our Solar system, if not halfway out, and based 88 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 1: on least the technology that we have now, and that 89 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 1: that is a given. I mean, we don't know, because 90 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,159 Speaker 1: go back one hundred years, they didn't think about flying machines, 91 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: and now you know we're doing more than that. But 92 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 1: given our technology, people can't make it. So we're going 93 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 1: to have to have robots take us out there. And 94 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: not only that, but do we want is a picture 95 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 1: worth a thousand words? Suppose we run into an extraterrestrial 96 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: Do we want them to think that we look like, 97 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 1: you know, caterpillars or millipeds with a thousand legs or 98 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:28,600 Speaker 1: we want them to know, you know, kind of what 99 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: we look like and will they look like us? Yeah, 100 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: and they have them look like us. But also warfare, drudgery, 101 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:43,160 Speaker 1: robots doing drudgery, robots entertaining children, robots keeping old folks company. 102 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: They have to look like people. The police that we 103 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: have police in Singapore, that are robots that are They 104 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 1: don't look like people yet, but they probably will, and 105 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 1: so it's coming, and so we're designing every robots to 106 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 1: look like us. I think it's so pathetically obvious that 107 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,840 Speaker 1: I had to write a book about it. And whoever 108 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 1: succeeds in this will be probably the most successful civilization 109 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: and controller of everybody else on Earth. Look what we've 110 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 1: done though with just medicine, and you as a doctor. 111 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,679 Speaker 1: I mean, here's Dick Cheney running around with a new heart. 112 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: Has kept him alive. He should have been dead a 113 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: long time ago. Medicine, modern medicine continues to do amazing 114 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: thing surgically and things like that. You know, in a way, 115 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: that's a flip side of what I'm talking about too. Yeah, 116 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 1: because we have people now with artificial pancreases, We have 117 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 1: people with artificial heart parts like valves, We have people 118 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 1: tick valves and things like that. Yeah, but even artificial 119 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: value culture, we have people with you know, you've ever 120 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 1: seen the series, the Star Trek series with the borgs. Well, 121 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: we're having people to go down that line. And if 122 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: we look at prosthetics on legs and arms, they have 123 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: come a long way. If you know you and I 124 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: might remember I certainly do the six million dollars mans 125 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: from way way back to Steve Austin who's played by 126 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 1: Lee Majors. And he had an eye that could see 127 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: instead of twenty twenty, you could see twenty and one, 128 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: you know, or something. You could run as fast as cars, 129 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: he could jump higher than anybody. He had a poisoned 130 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 1: dart that came out of one of his fingers. You know. 131 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 1: Well now nowadays that would be a laser of sorts. 132 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: But so we are making people into borgs, and we're 133 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 1: making robots into people. Let's get back to God, you know, 134 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 1: I yeah, do we find him? Ever? Well, I don't think, 135 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: you know, uh, I think it's like a treasure chest. 136 00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: If you had somebody. Suppose you were camping or doing 137 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: something on the Carolina coast and your kids came back 138 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:08,319 Speaker 1: with an old, old looking chest with treasure in it. 139 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 1: Would that say to you that there were pirates at 140 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: some point or something like that? Yeah? I mean, so 141 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 1: can you deduce from blueprints and all childbirth is a 142 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 1: big one? Can you deduce that there is a god 143 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 1: out there? And I'll tell you my story and maybe 144 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: the next time around when we have his time. But 145 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: can you deduce that there is a God behind this? 146 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,719 Speaker 1: Especially the blueprints. I mean, I just can't fathom they 147 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,679 Speaker 1: came about anyway else. And so I think of that 148 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: sort of a treasure chest. But I use when I 149 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,679 Speaker 1: give my talk sometimes I start off with childbirth, and 150 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 1: I talk about all the things that go on, including 151 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,319 Speaker 1: the heart starts the fourth week, and the sex is 152 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 1: pretty much decided in the sixth week, and on and 153 00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 1: on all the development. But I often jump to birth itself, 154 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: and there is a bunch of coincidences that have to 155 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 1: happen right. You can't have this trial and error Darwin style. 156 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: The baby's coming down to breath to now, and if 157 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 1: it gets stuck, it doesn't make it. It dies. If 158 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: it comes out and it doesn't take a breath fast enough, 159 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 1: there's about three or four minutes. If it take a 160 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 1: breath fast enough, it dies. It's got to come through 161 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,199 Speaker 1: and breathe at the right time. Plus is a valve 162 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 1: in one of the arteries that diverts the blood away 163 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 1: from the lungs while it's in the uterus, and as 164 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:37,079 Speaker 1: soon as it's born that changes, so the blood now 165 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 1: goes to the lungs, so oxygen can go into the blood. 166 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: That has to change excuse me, that has to change 167 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 1: at the time of birth, and so there's so many 168 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: factors in even of the baby. When it's ready, it 169 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 1: sends signals to mom, and Mom says, Okay, we're ready, 170 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 1: sends signals back down and everything starts to happen. I 171 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 1: considered a miracle. And you know, ever since I started 172 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 1: thinking along this line, almost everything is seen nature. To me, 173 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 1: it seems like a miracle, the fact that you've gone 174 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: from a Darwinist to a creationist. What do your friends 175 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:13,959 Speaker 1: say to you? What's wrong with you? Really? Some do? 176 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 1: I mean, it's about time. I mean it depends on 177 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 1: I have a cross section of friends who who I mean. 178 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 1: I have a very good friend who's a pastor, who 179 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 1: you know, likes to hear what I have to say. 180 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 1: And I have friends who I went to medical school 181 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 1: with who are still locked into darwin I think maybe 182 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: I've gone off the deep end. It's very, very hard 183 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: to bridge the chasm that exists out there. It's it's 184 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 1: almost like in line with everything political right now as well. 185 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,960 Speaker 1: You're either on one side or the other. And I 186 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 1: see that in my talks as well, and it's it's 187 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: it's difficult. So yeah, I think people for the most 188 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 1: part will give me a chance to say and not uncommonly, 189 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,439 Speaker 1: we'll get to a point where I'll just say, can 190 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 1: we agree to disagree and let's just talk and instead 191 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 1: of fight or argue, because that's what people tend to 192 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:18,199 Speaker 1: do these days, just agree to disagree and discuss it. 193 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,079 Speaker 1: And I'm hoping to bridge some of that with the 194 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,680 Speaker 1: next book, but it's not easy. What are the schools 195 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 1: teaching doctor Simmons about evolution and creationism? Yeah, I'm fairly 196 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,839 Speaker 1: removed from the schools, but I certainly read about it. 197 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: And most of public schools are not teaching creation they can't, 198 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: they're not allowed to. And lots of the teachers think 199 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 1: it's a bologney, you know, I think, and a lot 200 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 1: of the fellows that Discovery Institute feel this should be 201 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: taught as an option that kids should hear the other side, 202 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 1: they should hear what are the problems would Darwin's theories 203 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: and you know, and make up your own mind. But 204 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 1: it's not allowed in school, and people who try to 205 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 1: teach it in school most schools, and it's been fought 206 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,680 Speaker 1: in court a number of times around the country, and 207 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 1: they it's hard to get in there. And so the 208 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 1: kids are graduating from college and high school for sure, 209 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: but college thinking Darron was right, and everybody, you know, 210 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:28,680 Speaker 1: all my teachers believed it, All my professors believe it, 211 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:32,320 Speaker 1: So it must be right. And I lived that dream too. 212 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: I mean, it had to be right, It had to 213 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 1: be right. And because all these smart people thought it 214 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 1: was right, Well, all these smart people, I think are 215 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: locked into one lane. And then there's a lot of 216 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 1: people who've built their whole professional life saying that God 217 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: doesn't exist or Darlin's right, and so it's hard for 218 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 1: them to recant at this point. Could we be wrong 219 00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 1: about creationism, both of us? Sure, But I don't know 220 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 1: what the option would be. There's got to be something 221 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 1: that's intelligent that did this did Maybe there's no way 222 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 1: this would happen by accidents or random There's just no way. 223 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 1: I don't think so billions and billions of it. Just 224 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: the odds are just beyond calculation. I don't see how 225 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 1: I met Carol Sagan many many years ago. He came 226 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 1: and talked in my town and I went to the 227 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 1: greetings afterwards, and talked to him for a little while, 228 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 1: and I said, you know the complexity of stuff, How 229 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 1: do you explain that? I said, oh, just there's billions 230 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: of years. You know it can happen. I don't think so, 231 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 1: because there's more than billions of changes. If one actually 232 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: calculates out the changes, they almost have to happen every 233 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: second for all the billions of years that we're around, 234 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 1: or happens simultaneously, and everything in the body has to 235 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 1: happen in the right place, in the right way, at 236 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 1: the right time. It's just unbelievable how it happens on 237 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 1: a microscopic level, it's incredible. I sometimes point to the 238 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: clouding system. I mean, not only do we have several 239 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 1: pathways that have to meet, but every step in each 240 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 1: pathway has to happen in the right order. And then 241 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 1: not only and the cause clouding, but the clouting has 242 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 1: to be in the right place. You can't cloud off 243 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 1: the whole body. So there's another mechanism that keeps that 244 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 1: from happening. And then there's a mechanism that stops at 245 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 1: all and just causes the wound to heal. I mean, 246 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 1: if we didn't have clouting, we bleed to death with 247 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: the smallest cut. There's a lot of Another thing I 248 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 1: argue too, is foresight. We have a lot of foresight, 249 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 1: sort of a what if and the COVID virus is 250 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 1: not a bad thing to point to. What if a 251 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: virus comes along, what if that you've never seen this 252 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: virus before a boy your body, You've never seen a 253 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 1: virus like it before in your body. You have a 254 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 1: what if a foresight built in. I put a capital 255 00:15:56,360 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: on the foresight on the f to notice it, to 256 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 1: capture it, to break it down, to analyze it, and 257 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: to make antibodies to it, and to get rid of 258 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: it and get rid of it. Yeah, so you have 259 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 1: and we have that force a lot of what ifs 260 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 1: in our body to deal with a whole host of things. 261 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 1: I mean, a lot of cells turn into cancer our 262 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 1: body and our body gets rid of them. And why 263 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 1: that later life doesn't happen, we don't know entirely, but 264 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 1: maybe the system ages. But there's a lot of foresight. 265 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 1: There's a lot of engineering. You know. It's not just 266 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 1: that your gut absorbs food. It has to move through 267 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 1: it as a very select speed. It has to have 268 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: the right enzymes, find the right food and break it 269 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 1: down and take it to the right place.
