Many viewers of Unbelievable do not realise they are not subscribed to our channel, please double check, thank you!! As artificial intelligence, genetic engineering, neuroscience and space exploration transform what it means to be human, will people still believe in God by 2100? Will science and technology eventually make religion obsolete? Physicists Paul Heslop and Simon Walker-Samuel join host Sam McKee for a fascinating clash of worldviews on the future of faith.
0:00 Will religion survive the age of AI?
3:10 Will Christianity still exist in 2100?
9:03 Does science make belief in God irrational?
11:11 Are humans hardwired to believe in God?
17:46 Do we really have free will?
19:47 Could AI ever become conscious?*
21:04 If Our brains Are determined, can we trust them?
27:00 Will humans still worship God on Mars?
28:42 Could technology make religion obsolete?
39:47 Is science closing the “God of the Gaps”?
44:11 Can physics explain consciousness?
47:40 Is our search for God just an illusion?
50:50 Can you be good without God?
*no, perhaps something approximating consciousness, but not human consciousness.Let us know what you think in the comments.
This debate took place in front of a group of teenage students from Sir Henry Floyd Grammar School in Aylesbury, UK, in partnership with Aylesbury Vale Youth for Christ.
Christian mathematical physicist Paul Heslop argues that science cannot answer the deepest questions of truth, meaning and existence. Humanist biophysicist Simon Walker-Samuel asks whether religion is instead a human response that advancing science may increasingly leave behind.
From AI consciousness and free will to morality, evolution and the search for God, this Unbelievable debate asks whether our technological future will finally displace religion, or reveal why we still need it.
