The Skillful Art Of Manipulation | Mastering Psychology & Influence
Terror in Tokyo Subway | Audiobook
What happens when the brightest minds lose themselves to the darkest cause? Terror in Tokyo Subway pulls listeners deep into the unraveling psyche of Hanae Ishikawa—a neurochemist who once sought healing through science, only to become a loyal hand of destruction under the grip of a self-proclaimed messiah. Told from within the fog of post-traumatic shock and shattered faith, this seven-chapter psychological descent exposes how manipulation, gaslighting, and spiritual coercion can erode the strongest intellect until reason drowns in devotion. This isn’t just the story of the 1995 Tokyo subway attack. It’s the voice inside the horror. It’s guilt...

Vantage Point with Pastor Henry
Bible Study: Were there six literal or spiritual days of creation?
In an engaging podcast episode, I welcomed Pastors Michael Chilcott and Peter Ikpugha to debate whether the Earth was created in six literal days or six spiritual periods, as described in Genesis 1. The discussion was lively, filled with biblical exposition and occasional fiery exchanges. Pastor Chilcott defended a literal 24-hour-day view, citing the Hebrew yom and Exodus 20:11, which ties the creation week to the Sabbath. He argued that a literal reading upholds Scripture’s authority, cautioning against allegorical interpretations. Pastor Ikpugha, however, proposed that the “days” could symbolize longer epochs, referencing Psalm 90:4 and the universe’s vast age. He suggested Genesis...

Audiobook "If Atheists Created God" Exploring Fundamental Moral Dilemmas Across Humanity by A. Mytaf
Epilogue
🧠📚 What qualifies someone to question the deepest ideas about God, evolution, and human morality? A degree—or a life lived on the margins?In this closing episode, the author steps out from behind the curtain of arguments and hypotheses to share the most personal part of the book: the story behind it.From a childhood shaped by brutality and survival, to a life reshaped by audio lectures, autism, and an unlikely love affair with mp3 files, this epilogue isn’t a philosophical argument—it’s a human one. It’s about how someone without credentials, living in bureauc...

Chapter 16 Part 1. Evolution Bias and Worldviews
🧬🧠 Can Truth Survive Bias?Why did evolution unfold through blood, extinction, and pain—if a rational and benevolent God was behind it all? Could a truly good deity have authored a process so messy, indifferent, and brutal?In this episode, we dive into one of the most perplexing crossroads of science and spirituality: reconciling evolution with morality and divine intention. Is suffering a feature or a flaw in creation? Is evolution a blind mechanism—or a divine instrument operating under higher laws we’ve barely begun to grasp?We don’t offer easy answers—but we...

Is evolution just a scientific theory, or is there more to the story? In this video, we uncover the surprising connections between Darwinian evolution, its rejection of the God of the Bible, and how these ideas influenced dangerous ideologies, including Nazi thought. We'll compare the evolutionary origin story with the Biblical account of creation and explore the deeper implications of these worldviews. Was Evolution used as a tool to justify racism and eugenics? How has it shaped modern thinking? And most importantly, does science contradict the Bible or does it actually affirm it? Watch now and find out. Don't...

Audiobook "If Atheists Created God" Exploring Fundamental Moral Dilemmas Across Humanity by A. Mytaf
Chapter 7. The Dilemma of Natural Evil
Why does suffering exist if God is both all-powerful and all-good? This age-old question, famously articulated by Epicurus, has challenged philosophers and theologians for centuries. While many argue that human free will explains moral evil—violence, corruption, and injustice—natural evil remains an enigma. Hurricanes, diseases, and genetic mutations exist beyond human control, raising profound questions about divine justice.In this episode, we explore some of the most thought-provoking responses to this dilemma. From Alvin Plantinga’s argument for a powerful non-human spirit as the source of natural evil to philosophical theories that suggest suffering serves a greate...

Atheists Assume that Nothing is Actually Something
The origin of the universe poses a serious problem for atheists - how do you get something from nothing? Dr. Hugh Ross critiques physicist Lawrence Krauss's attempt to solve this puzzle. Ross points out that Krauss’s "nothing" is actually quantum fluctuations in a vacuum. So Krauss’s “nothing” is actually something, and the origins of this “something” need to be explained.Check Worldview Summit for more thought-provoking discussions on faith and reason. worldviewsummit.orgFeatured video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVCVt-dvVOc See 26:21 and following #BigBangTheory #CosmologyDebate #ScienceAndFaithSupport...

Klavan offers a rich historical perspective backed by extensive classical knowledge, making a compelling case for the integration of spiritual wisdom into our understanding of the modern world.

Faith and Reason: can a scientist believe?Throughout series 1 and 2 we have looked at many different areas where science and religion may seem to contradict each other, e.g creation and evolution, cosmology, neuroscience of religious beliefs, miracles... In episode 7 of this series, we will be looking at something more fundamental: What is faith?, What is reason? How do they relate? Are science and religion fundamentally at odds with each other?

We looked at fasting as a spiritual practice, how and why Christians do so until this day, and, of course, we delved into some of the science behind nutrition and food. In order to tackle these questions we have invited two guest speakers: Dr Elisabeth Corcoran, a functional medicine practitioner, and Prof Jay W. Richards, theologian and writer.My favourite quote in Prof...

ReductionismThe Science and Faith team are back with a brand new series! We kick off this season with an episode on reductionism. While reductionism has become an accepted term in academia, it is nowhere near to the way people live their lives. One would intuitively think that human existence is more than just physical existence - but where does that inner human desire come from? And is it true or just an illusion?We also explored whether Biology can be reduced to Physics, to what extent this approach is helpful for Science, what are...

Resurrection The Nicene Creed reads “...For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again in accordance with the Scriptures…”.

We invited Prof. Sir Colin Humphreys who told us about the astronomical, historical and theological research he does in his spare time which allowed him to revisit the dating of the events surrounding Jesus’ death and resurrection; in particular, The Last Supper...

Modifying our genes. Is it playing God? In episode three of our Science and Faith series, we explore different aspects of the often controversial field of genetic modification. We began with Fr Robert Verrill’s introduction to the Augustinian prelate Gregor Mendel, known as the Father of Genetics, and the empirical data he obtained of trait inheritance in pea plants. We were then in a position to ask Prof. Keith Fox for a definition of the term ‘genetic modification’, which Dr Hilary Yancey followed up by examining some of the reasons why the scientific community is int...
