Ep. 7: MITCH STOKES | When Atheists Can’t Do the Math
Description
Over the past two centuries, a series of erroneous ideas have taken root—chief among them the claim that faith is inferior to reason, and that the two stand in opposition. This has been accompanied by the notion that science has rendered God unnecessary, establishing itself as the ultimate arbiter of truth—untainted, we are told, by metaphysical assumptions. Yet upon closer scrutiny, every scientific endeavor rests upon philosophical and theological presuppositions that shape both its method and its purpose. Mathematics and logic themselves presuppose a universe in which order, intelligence, and design are woven into the very fabric of reality.
In this episode, Lennox Kalifungwa is joined by Dr. Mitch Stokes to discuss the relationship between philosophy, faith, reason, and science.
