I stopped posting here and am now at medschneverends

Hi. Welcome to Epiblast! The name is partly inspired by PZ Myers famous blog, Pharyngula partly by the fact that the epiblast, a simple tissue in a developing embryo (labelled 5), gives rise, eventually, to virtually everything inside our body. It's a metaphor for how some of our simple, fundamental ideas vastly affect the other aspects of our life. This blog covers my interests; usually science, medicine, atheism, religion. I might sneak in a bit of philosophy or magic if I feel like it. I warn you, the discussion gets uncomfortable and I come to conclusions which are unconventional, maybe contradictory to yours. Don't go crying to someone if you are offended.

A universe from nothing

Dear YuvaVeers!

Hariji did a presentation on the creation of the universe which probably piqued our interest in knowing where the universe came from. Well, Lawrence Krauss here did a similar presentation at the Atheist Alliance Conference this year in the US. The lecture below does not go in a linear fashion but seeks to explain various concepts associated with cosmology which will make it easier for you to understand the other books which you may read. In this lecture Krauss covers the beginning, current state and the end of the universe. I found this and another lectures during the conference extremely enlightening and I hope you would too. So I'll be posting them up regularly for your viewing pleasure.




Facebookers: The youtube video won't show up. You can take a look at it here. If you look at the section on the right and click "More Info" you can get a link to download the video. Check out the rest of the blog here

I found this video from an article at the Richard Dawkins Foundation website.
