1
I think what most people get wrong when speaking of God is to imagine God as a big being.
2
I look up in the night sky and I see stars and planets and look around I see animals and plants.
Je lève les yeux vers le ciel nocturne et je vois des étoiles et des planètes, puis je regarde autour de moi et je vois des animaux et des plantes.
3
I see the world of beings, of things.
Je vois le monde des êtres, des choses.
4
The great mistake is to say, well, he must be the biggest being around.
La grande erreur, c'est de dire : eh bien, il doit être l'être le plus grand qui existe.
5
He's the supreme being among the many beings of the world.
Il est l'être suprême parmi les nombreux êtres du monde.
6
And that's precisely what God is not.
7
How often atheists, both old and new, will say something like, well, where's your evidence for God?
8
If you imagine God as one more big contingent thing among others, well then there's just there's no evidence for that reality.
9
They're operating out of a scientific framework.
10
But see, if you're looking for God that way, you'll never find him.
11
That's not what he is.
12
God is the sheer act of existence itself in and through which all particular things exist.
13
But people get caught up in misunderstanding God and therefore seeking him in a sort of empirical, scientific way.
14
That's not going to work.
15
You know, the theologian Paul Tillich, who was one of the great
16
Protestant theologians of the last century, he said the word faith is the most misunderstood word in the religious vocabulary.
17
And I've always felt that's right.
18
How do people read faith?
19
Through a scientific lens or a scientistic lens.
20
Faith is credulity.
21
It's superstition.
22
It's accepting things on the basis of no evidence.
23
It's the way a child thinks.
24
That is not faith.
25
That is indeed superstition, credulity, stupidity.
26
The Church, at its best, is calling people beyond that.
27
We're not satisfied leaving people in a state of pre -rational superstition.
28
So what's faith then?
29
It's something on the far side of reason.
30
When reason has gone about as far as it can possibly go, it looks into a kind of alluring darkness.
31
Faith in ways like that, the full presence of God, is such that it overwhelms the mind.
32
And of course it does.
33
And that shouldn't be surprising that God, ipsum esse, the sheer act of being itself, the creator of all things,
34
that in whom essence and existence coincide, is not going to be definable by our minds.
35
It won't fit into our minds.
36
So what does the mind want?
37
Well, it wants the truth.
38
And so it seeks it.
39
It seeks it scientifically, psychologically.
40
It seeks it through literature.
41
It seeks it through philosophy.
42
That's the beauty of the mind.
43
I'd be asking people not to close their minds, but to keep opening their minds.
44
I love the sciences.
45
But I don't like scientism, which is the reduction of all knowledge to the scientific form of knowledge.
46
I love the sciences and their success in the technology they've delivered to us.
47
But first of all, there's all kinds of other ways of knowing the truth about the world.
48
Hamlet doesn't have a bit of science in it,
49
but Hamlet delivers to us profound truths about human life and about love and about frustration and about aspiration.
50
We've got to open our minds beyond just a scientific vision of reality.
51
So what I would say is religion doesn't close the mind.
52
On the contrary, I'm opposed to any system that wants to shut down the spirit and say, no, no, that's all you can know.
53
No, no, no, don't go beyond these limits.
54
No, blow open the limits.
55
Go beyond the limits.
56
See, and that to me is language of faith, not infrarational stupidity and superstition.
57
No, no, no. But faith is this alluring horizon, this darkness beyond the light.
58
And by God, yes, I want to keep opening that up for people.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
