The difference being faith and atheism is one of ultimate hope & justice. Hope for life after "the end".

You cannot say why something was created, its purpose, without knowing its maker. No matter how smart you are. You cannot infer this from the matter.

Not sure what Lennox is trying to say here...

He quotes a Russian scientist who said they though they could retain a value for human beings while abolishing God and found that they could not.

I do not understand, nor get the significance of, this argument. But it sounds interesting. Worth looking into in the future perhaps?

Lennox argues that both rationality and morality cannot be explained without the Bible & God... Humans are naturally rational and moral beings because "Man are created in God's image" or "The Holy Spirit remains in men"

The Holy Ghost is the reason we can tell right from wrong (spiritual anti-virus)... However, the more we sin, the more we silence this voice in our head until ultimately we cannot hear it anymore.

No person is born a criminal. A killer.

When we get baptized, we effectively restore our connection to God, and thus reenact the Holy Ghost within us; restoring our innocence. Our soul's integrity has been restored and we can hear the Spirit speaking to us loud and clear once again.

As Simone Weil argued, the purpose of a punishment, an adequate one, that is, is to cleanse the taint of our behavior from ourselves... Allowing ourselves to get back into humanity without judgement. Baptism serves the same purpose on a Spiritual level... With the key difference being that it was Christ who endured the ultimate punishment, and by being baptized (willingly), we enjoy that same punishment, can reap its benefits.

Lennox argues that the reason science works is because both the universe out there and the insane complex minds that humans have are both designs of the same divine being/architect; God.

What is easier to believe (~3:00)?

That God created everything... The existence of an architect?

Or: Nothing turned itself into everything? Oxymoron

Why is one more believable over the other?

Initially, people became scientists because they expected to find law in the universe, because they believed in the lawgiver.

God created the laws that govern existence. Scientists unravel and observe those laws.

Lennox argues it is his Faith that gives him his job.

God is a different explanation than science (~1:50)

Choosing between science and God is the same as choosing between Ford and Engineering for an explanation of the motor car.

They are not mutually exclusive.
