So I have no musical ability whatsoever. But you could perceive the note A, 440 hertz, right? Your ear can actually perceive if it's 441 hertz. In other words, one out of 400, so less than 1%, a quarter of a percent mistuning, you can perceive it. How well tuned does the universe have to be in order for us to be having this conversation?

And then the supposition is, well, if it's extremely finely tuned across a whole vast panoply of different areas, from the strength of these constants, the number of protons, to the number of antiprotons, then you might start to think this is suggestive. But it's not a scientific hypothesis, right? We can always say God, and we can always say there was no God, but you can't prove it.

And I think this is an important fact that people get. I was on with a young man that you've met many times, Stephen Bartlett, on his podcast, wonderful podcast. And we spent four hours together. And one of those hours was just about me, him asking me to prove God scientifically. I said, I'm sorry, Stephen, again and again. I cannot do that. He's searching. He's reaching for something.

Yeah. Well, he probably talked more about God with me than he did with you. And I was quite surprised that he did because I'm a cosmologist. I'm not a theologian.

Yeah, I always say I'd kill for 1% of God's book sales. And I told him, look, what you're searching for, I can't necessarily give you. I can give you the approach to me that I find persuasive, but it's not going to be persuasive to you because it's specific to me and my life history and how I understand how I got to be who I am.

And it doesn't use the strength of quantum electrodynamics, and it doesn't use all sorts of things.

And when you search for that, I think I told him, I said, Stephen, you know, and I think I got this from you in the conversation you had with Dennis Prager that I was privileged to be a part of in Santa Barbara about five, six years ago. And you said, you know, who am I to say, this is you, who am I to say I believe in God? Like, what is a man to say such a thing? I mean, it's so ridiculous.

And I've turned that around. I say, I don't believe in gravity. And he's like, what are you talking about? And Stephen said, you're a physicist. You have to believe in gravity. I said, no, if I take this meteorite and I drop it, I don't believe it's—I have evidence for it. What is the notion of evidence? It means it's something we can't necessarily define, but we can say it's certainly not faith.
