Do you agree with Tom Chi? How does God exist for you?

That God exist as a concept in minds? Sure. Some parts of what he said sounds like panentheism.Do you agree with Tom Chi?

About a minute in he makes it all a choice between materialistic science and pure faith which is false. Nobody i know arrived at God thru pure faith absent reason. Since the universe had a beginning then it would need a Cause. What most materialists offer for Cause is insufficient to God assumption or Gen.1:1. Mostly this video is gobbledegook.
Biogenesis extrapolated backwards leads to a life source, not an inverse which would be abiogenesis with zero evidence anywhere.
The moral argument for God works best. Even evil argues for God since evil depends on good and if good is there then God is there. This is all reason, not ‘‘pure faith’’ which sounds like blind faith.

Sheesh! Proof of what we should probably already know intuitively: a background in astrophysics insulates no one from plain-Jane human speculations. I think his Humanities 101 classes actually had more influence here. Nothing new: entry-level rationalism, not much wisdom yet. At least he tries to integrate religion and science as best as he can figure how to do it.

I agree and he is not brilliant ,but has a particulat talent which fits in with a modern scientific materialistic mindset blended with mix of eastern ideas .Watching this has made my IQ drop.
Oh so very not new !
He is going to get a shock when he finds that he is wrong ,so wrong .

Among other things, God exists for me as the cause of the Big Bang.Google X Co-Founder Deconstructs Science And Religion in 30 minutes

Genesis: “Let there be light.”
Carl Sagan in Cosmos, 1980 A.D.
“Ten or twenty billion years ago, something happened – the Big Bang, the event that began our universe…. In that titanic cosmic explosion, the universe began an expansion which has never ceased…. As space stretched, the matter and energy in the universe expanded with it and rapidly cooled. The radiation of the cosmic fireball, which, then as now, filled the universe, moved through the spectrum – from gamma rays to X-rays to ultraviolet light; through the rainbow colors of the visible spectrum; into the infrared and radio regions. The remnants of that fireball, the cosmic background radiation, emanating from all parts of the sky can be detected by radio telescopes today. In the early universe, space was brilliantly illuminated.”

The conclusion of this lecture is that the universe has not existed forever. Rather, the universe, and time itself, had a beginning in the Big Bang, about 15 billion years ago.
