It was getting kind of boring until near the end, then of course Colbert nailed it! He is the best.

So, it seems to me that Dr. Krauss has proved that God is all powerful and that what was written by “Bronze-age peasants,” is true afterall : Romans 4:17 – as it is written, “I have made you the father of many nations”—in the presence of the God in whom he believed, who gives life to the dead and calls into existence the things that do not exist.

Nothing created everything, a scientific impossibility…
Every building has a builder, every painting a painter.

Pretty funny. As far as I can see, Colbert is restating the classic Christian formulation that begins with the impossibility of explaining where the first something came from and calls that mysterious fertile “nothing” God. And Krauss is saying that physics has now explained the “mystery.” But explaining the laws of physics doesn’t explain why they happen to be the laws. So it doesn’t explain away God, as Krauss seems to think it does.
Am I missing something?
