Sounds a little woo-ish at the end, but I don't actually disagree with what he has to say about changing our frame of reference about life, here on earth. But I liked how he presented the physics element.
Yeah, I don't know what woo-ish means, but I almost didn't post the video because of the reference to the government at the end. (I'm thinking that maybe was the woo)...either way, I'm gonna Google it.

A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
