Great mysteries still surround the origins and existence of the universe. Physicist Neil Turok, philosopher of physics David Albert, and writer and philosopher Jim Holt discuss with host Steve Paulson the most basic existential question of all: Why are we here? New York Academy of Sciences Tuesday, October 14, 2014 http://www.nourfoundation.com/the-origins-of-the-universe
March 22, 2013 Jim Holt discusses his book Why Does the World Exist? 'Why is there a world rather than nothing at all?' remains the most curious and enduring of all metaphysical mysteries. Moving beyond the narrower paths of Christopher Hitchens, Roger Penrose and Stephen Hawking, celebrated essayist Holt enters this fascinating debate with a broad, lively and deeply informed narrative that traces all our efforts to grasp the origins of the universe. With sly humour and a highly original personal approach, Holt takes on the role of cosmological detective. Suggesting that we might have been too narrow in limiting our suspects to God and the Big Bang, he tracks down, among others, an eccentric Oxford philosopher, a Nobel Laureate physicist, a French Buddhist monk, and novelist John Updike j...

Interview to Jim Caviezel, the actor who perform the role of Jesús in the movie "The Passion of the Christ"
A mother's life was turned upside down when her five-year-old son told her that he used to be a Hollywood actor and was reincarnated. It all began when her son was four, and experienced vivid and haunting nightmares. It was not until one year later however, when Ryan Hammons was five, that he shared his secret. Speaking to US programme Today, mum Cyndi, from Muskogee, Oklahoma, said: "He said mom, I have something I need to tell you - I used to be somebody else." But it became clear to her that this was not just a child's imagination running away with itself, due to the shocking level of detail he would recall from his past life. He told his mother of his previous experiences - travelling the world, working with stars like Rita Hayworth, and dancing on Broadway. She added: "His stori...
