I’m about four minutes in, and so far, it seems like he’s going to use one giant argument from ignorance. :confused:

I’ll continue listening and post my thoughts on the full interview once I’m finished.
 
“Darwinism might be able to generate little bits of information, but not all the information we see in the genome.”

“Trying to move from one island to another leads to getting lost in the oceans.”

“Consciousness doesn’t reduce to physical causes.”

Oh, it really is one giant argument from ignorance. That’s very unfortunate, I was hoping for something worthwhile. Sorry for not listening to all of it, but I get the general gist.

I agree with what you have said except for this: “Consciousness doesn’t reduce to physical causes.” being a dualist, I do not believe there is a material cause for consciousness, only a formal, efficient and final cause.
