The Unknown
As we know,
There are known knowns.
There are things we know we know.
We also know
There are known unknowns.
That is to say
We know there are some things
We do not know.
But there are also unknown unknowns,
The ones we don't know
We don't know.

At about 1 minute 5 seconds into the video, there's a claim that as far as we know the Universe had a beginning. Scientifically, that's incorrect, for all we know is that the Universe as we know it had a beginning. By the laws of physics, which are a part of the universe, you cannot create something from nothing, something at the quantum fluctuation and inflation of the big bang expanded and transformed.
