Today, we are talking about nothing! Absolutely nothing. Did the Universe Really Come From Nothing? A few episodes ago, we asked the question, “What Happened before the Big Bang?” If you haven’t yet listened to that podcast, be sure to do so! I stuck mostly with Stephen Hawking’s take on space-time and focused on the emergence of time itself. But the time has come to go deeper. We are getting our hands messy today with quantum physics. We are going to see if we can figure out why some scientists say that everything did indeed, come from nothing.

You may be thinking, “Wait, Nick, if you are an Atheist, what in the world are you doing propping up a religion like Christianity?” That would be a fair question, and the answer calls back to what the Free Thought Forum is all about. In our practical study of moral philosophy, we will be looking for good ideas from all over the world and throughout history. In this episode, we will be looking to see if there are great life lessons that can be found from some Christian teachings. Moral lessons that even an Atheist like me could find useful.

In this episode, we will look at five strong reasons that scientists have to accept the big bang as the most accurate model that can explain the shape, expansion, and composition of our universe. What does the evidence actually show? Is the big bang really the best explanation for what we observe? We will get right to it!

In today’s episode, it will be my pleasure to explain our five rules of civil discourse! You may ask, “How can we have strong-willed people from the political right and the political left, the religious, spiritual, atheists, and all kinds of people participate in meaningful open discussions?” These rules certainly help, and I’d go so far as to say that they are also pretty useful in online and other in-person conversation.

Did you get a chance to listen to our last episode about our journey back through 4 Billion years of earth’s history? If not, pause this episode and go check it out. I’ll be sure to leave a link below.

This episode is the second part in a series where we will be looking back through the past, a few billion years at a time. If you invented a time machine and began to travel backward, what would you see? How far back could you go? In this episode, we will try to wrap our minds around some planetary science, astrophysics, and cosmology, as we rewind time at one billion years per minute, with the help of a little imagination.

When you were young, were you a fan of the magic school bus or Carl Sagan’s ship of the imagination? I’m still a fan, and today, we will be taking a journey on our own make-shift craft to explore the amazing discoveries of science.

This episode is the first part in a series where we will be looking back through the past a few billion years at a time. If you invented a time machine and began to travel backward, what would you see? How far back could you go? In this episode, we will try to wrap our minds around some paleontology, biology, and geology as we rewind time at one billion years per minute, with the help of a little imagination.

We just got back from the 1000 Lights Water Lantern Festival and were perplexed by one question that came up a few times. “Are you a church?” In this episode, I will answer that question so that all of you out there may have a better idea of the place the Free Thought Forum has in our society.

In this episode, we will go back in time, as far as physically possible, and perhaps, even further. What happened before the big bang, before the first moment of our universe as we know it? Strap in for a thought experiment built of cosmology, mind-bending physics, and imagination.
