Many Jews and Muslims *do believe in Jesus* - once they understand who He is. There is, for example, a revival among Iranian muslms coming to Christ right now.

Michael Shermer forgot to mention, that evolution does not originate from Darwin. The story telling of evolution does originate from Brothers Grimm and the tale of the frog prince. It tells, that frogs (amphibians) can turn into princes (mammals). Instead of a kiss (short time) Darwin included lots of extra time in his fairy tale.

The evidence for evolution is overwhelming, 98% of biologists believe it to be true. This is a field of science not some belief system, it’s been tested and observed to such a degree it’s all but a certainty. That 2% that don’t agree that humans evolved from a common ancestor at usually religious nuts

It is astounding to me that man has defined science in his own little secular understanding and has the idea it has the answer for EVERYTHING. It doesn't, something exists right in front of him that cannot be detected by the human senses. What is this? It is the consciousness of himself and his fellow human beings. This is the invisible attribute of every single human being. Consciousness cannot be seen, heard, held in the hand, smelled or tasted, therefore secular scientists claim such doesn't exist. It's amazing that we know if our fellow human beings are conscious or not. Palm 14 may apply in such circumstances.

@truthgiver8286 Truth has nothing to do with numbers. I investigated the evidence and came to a conclusion based on the strength of it. And based on lack of corroboration for other beliefs (including atheism.) But that doesn't mean everyone has to do it that way. God can reveal himself personally when he chooses, and did give me even more confirmations after I became convinced and committed myself to Jesus.

Hey voice-over guy. If man didn't invent "God", give some evidence that "God" is something other than imagination. It's easy to demonstrate writing. But demonstrate where "God" has actually shown up. Produce evidence for anyone actually talking to any "God", and having that "God" respond.

Buddhist say Jesus was a good man good teacher. Hindus say Jesus is a path to heaven. Muslims say Jesus was a good prophet good teachers. Judaism prophecies talk about one to come the Messiah. Jesus said “I am the way, the truth, the life. No man comes to the father but by me.” All religions point to Jesus as being a path, but Jesus says he is the only path. Narrow is the way. It doesn’t widen with time it doesn’t widen depending on how you feel. It will always remain narrow because it is through the Son of God Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
