Reading this thread reminds me of attending a presbytery theology symposium.....not, I hasten to add, that I had a lot of choice in the matter, but I'd managed, quite successfully, to avoid them for several years.
The convener opened with prayer thus...
"let's ask God's blessing on this debate....but I think He'd rather be round at the bar with the rest of of those professing sanity."

Happy Father's Day....

Which bit of modern physics should he be updating to.

Well, in the very tedious lecture I watched he took about 30 minutes to basically say "there must be a reason for the laws of physics". Instead of just saying that, he went on and on, and on and on, about things that are well understood but using the language of the classical arguments (potentials, actualisations, and so on).

If you start from a position of 'wanting to believe', then you are merely indulging your confirmation bias, not being a true student of life.

Of course, no atheist ever indulged in confirmation bias...
