Why does light move so fast?

00:30.000 --> 00:35.000
Light travels at 300,000 kilometers a second.

00:35.000 --> 00:42.000
This is a constant represented by the sea in Einstein's famous formula, E equals MC squared.

00:42.000 --> 00:50.000
The E in this formula stands for the energy released when the material in the thermonuclear reactions in the stars turns into energy.

00:50.000 --> 01:00.000
If light traveled just a little faster than it actually does, then tens of thousands more times energy would be produced in the thermonuclear reactions.

01:00.000 --> 01:08.000
The energy in the cores of stars would be consumed more quickly and our universe would have been shrouded in darkness millions of years ago.

01:08.000 --> 01:13.000
And what would happen if light traveled just a little bit slower?

01:13.000 --> 01:20.000
In that case, the initial expansion of the universe would have been much slower and unable to escape the force of gravity.

01:20.000 --> 01:26.000
The universe would have imploded. In other words, life would have been impossible in either case.

01:26.000 --> 01:46.000
I am opposed to Darwinism, or better said, to the transformist hypothesis as such.

01:46.000 --> 01:53.000
No matter what one takes to be mechanism or cause of the postulated macroevolutionary leaps,

01:53.000 --> 01:59.000
I am convinced, moreover, that Darwinism is not in fact a scientific theory,

01:59.000 --> 02:04.000
but a pseudo-metaphysical hypothesis decked out in scientific garb.

02:04.000 --> 02:11.000
Nothing is more evident, more certain, than the existence or reality of God.
