Asalam alaykom brother,
I have just watched this and enjoyed it much:

It's a debate on the existence of God between Richard Dawkins & Oxford mathematician and Christian apologist John Lennox.
Note how weak the atheist claims are...
Best wishes.
So Richard lectures on the theory of knowledge... A good question for him would be "how did the first human being attain knowledge (information)?".
For instance, if I was given a book in a language that I did not understand; would I be able to comprehend what is written without referring to other sources? Even if I examined that book a million times would I still be able to comprehend what is written? NO.
We are born with zero knowledge (information).
If we agree with the above argument, then how did the first human being attain knowledge (information)? Is it that the mind came after the reality or before?
How are you knowing its a book written in an unknown language? What I mean is how are you recognising its an unknown language?
