It was mentioned to explain why the possibility of alien life seems unlikely, although not impossible, due to the vastness of the universe. The speaker suggested reading it to understand this perspective.
I know you're gonna think I'm crazy, but after reading Hugh Ross's book why the universe is the way it is...Don't get lost in this space is so big argument. I'm not telling you it's impossible, please...

Episode: An Epic, Must-See Takedown (Ep 1671)
Dan Bongino highly recommended this book, describing it as life-changing and impactful. He stated that it uses simple math to explain the necessity of God's existence.
He's an astrophysicist who writes about the existence of God.
And it is a powerful book using plain numbers, math, very simply written, not overly complicated on why there has to be a God.
There's simply no mathematical possibility otherwise.

Bongino highlighted Hugh Ross's book, noting it had climbed the bestseller charts after listeners purchased it following the show discussion.
One quick note the book we talked about by Hugh Ross, Why the Universe Is the Way It Is, ... I discussed it on the show, rocketed up the charts on the bookstores thanks to you, you went out and bought it.
Episode: Trump, The Border, and UFOs? (Ep 1482)
It was described as a fascinating book that explored the reasons behind the universe's characteristics and the unique conditions that allow for life on Earth. The author, an astrophysicist, posited that life exists only on this planet and God provided humans with the means to observe his creation.
It's a fascinating book. We'll probably send him to the top of Amazon today but that's okay or no don't send them to Amazon. Don't buy anything on Amazon. Retraction. Go buy it somewhere else anywhere but Amazon.
But the book is called Why the Universe Is the Way It Is. I was driving in, I've told this story before but driving into work one time when I used to do some guest hosting at WMAL in DC which we will be on May 24th in that 12 to 3 spot, the great WMAL.
And I couldn't get over it how incredibly smart this guy was. I think he's an astrophysicist. I wound up having him back on WMAL but the point of his book which he was explaining on an interview and believe me when it's like three o'clock in the morning it's hard to get you interested in anything at all was that he doesn't believe there are aliens at all.
In his book he lays out why he thinks God gave us this planet and this planet only for life and not only why life only exists on this planet but why God gave us the ability to see everything else and the glory of his creation and just how profound it is exclusively here.
Why the universe is the way it is? I have no interest in this financial interest in this book whatsoever. I don't get like a plug feed and pay. I'm just telling you if you're interested in a point and a counterpoint that oh yeah there's gotta be aliens and here's why. Read his counterpoint Hugh Russ why he says nope not gonna happen.

The host praised the astrophysicist's book as an easytoread defense of a designed universe and urged listeners to read it.
I had a guest on my show a long time who wrote a book... the author's a guy by the name of HughRoss and he wrote a book... the book is called Why the Universe Is the Way It Is... I suggest you read the book.
It's an easy read. You don't have to be a physicist. You'll find out if gravity was off by just a smidge, the whole place would collapse.
