Brights are people that reject supernatural things. He talks about that it is time that brights need to come out of the closet and accept the things that are happening. Daniel Dennett believes that there is no God. He talks about how you can not prove a negative but he believes that God does not exist. He then talks about how no two people think of or worship God in the same way. He believes that no to many people believe in God but really they just try to be devoted to it. But most of the people behave that there is no God. He talks about how you would take this risks because you no that God would be there to save you or give away your things. He says which makes a lot of sense is that God is too undefined.
Evolution he then talks about having a certain direction but not by design. His favorite image of this is going up is being the rise of complexity but at any moment it could crash, that it could be a saw tooth. But that the trend shows that there is progress in design. With Natural selection that it is possible that there is something more possible that has yet to unravel. However, he doesn't know that it is a coherent idea that there is something more to come that we just do not know about. He talks about individual organisms that give you real purpose that by design are a part of natural selection. So in the end that there are open possiblities not enough reasons are assumptions to say that natural selection happens by design. But Dennett says that it simply happens to happen.
I don't know if I necessarily agree with what Dennett is saying because to first start things off, everything has to happen for a reason. Newton said that "for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction". That statement holds to much power for things just to happen to happen. There has to be a design or a purpose of natural selection or for the big bang theory. You don't have to believe in God to believe that but, we didn't just become who we are today without a
different variety of things happening. Then he talks about how God is to undefined, well if you go off of Socrates theory everything is to undefined so how can you believe in anything which at some point you need to believe in something. I think Dennett had some bad experiences in his life because humans don't believe just to believe or at least I don't because that is just a waste of time.
