			Atheists are guilty of what he calls explanatory

00:00:02 --> 00:00:03

			monism.

00:00:03 --> 00:00:06

			They say that science is the only answer

00:00:06 --> 00:00:08

			to everything. So, for example, I walk into

00:00:08 --> 00:00:11

			a kitchen. My mother is making tea for

00:00:11 --> 00:00:13

			me. I don't know what she's doing. So

00:00:13 --> 00:00:14

			I say, what are you doing? She says,

00:00:14 --> 00:00:18

			I'm expanding molecules. That's scientifically what's happening. But

00:00:18 --> 00:00:20

			does it answer my question? No. What are

00:00:20 --> 00:00:23

			you doing? I'm heating up water and standing

00:00:23 --> 00:00:25

			molecules. But why? Because I'm making you tea

00:00:25 --> 00:00:27

			because I love you. Why is a much

00:00:27 --> 00:00:28

			more profound

00:00:28 --> 00:00:29

			question

00:00:29 --> 00:00:31

			than what. Science can never give you the

00:00:31 --> 00:00:31

			why.

00:00:32 --> 00:00:34

			It can give you how, and possibly what,

00:00:34 --> 00:00:35

			but not why.
