Yeah, because of course, if CL hasn't heard of them, they couldn't possibly have something important or enlightening to say.
Please, CL, could you list all the people you've heard of, so I can tell who is important enough to watch?

And author of 5 textbooks which are standard in physics as well as a large set of peer review literature . Well that shows how well informed CL is.
I loved the part of the debate, where the intellectually dishonest WLC, quotes physicist Alan Guth in an attempt to support his fallacious argument, then Carroll wheels out a video monitor and plays a video from Guth explaining how wrong WLC is.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
