Questioning Belief
Natural Evil: how can a good and powerful God allow natural disasters and disease?
Sharon Dirckx, PhD., trained neuroscientist, prolific speaker, and author of award-winning books on the problem of evil and human consciousness, helps us to tackle the problem of natural evil. There are evils in our world which can't be directly attributed to human moral error: natural disasters, parasites, and disease attack seemingly indiscriminately, causing rampant death and destruction of innocent people. How can the Judeo-Christian God be simultaneously good, loving, and all-powerful and yet allow disaster and disease to occur on his watch? Did God create these evils, does he passively permit them, or is he powerless to stop them?

Earthquakes and cancer: Why is God’s good world so full of suffering? with Sharon Dirckx
Christians normally explain away human-caused suffering by pointing to God giving us free will, and our sinful natures using that to harm ourselves and each other. But what about all the things entirely out of our control which cause so much sadness, from natural disasters to genetic diseases? In this episode we interview apologist and neuroscientist Sharon Dirckx about the origins of evil and how Christians can sensitively respond to objections to faith based in suffering. And, we consider the role of apologetics in general – should we still be doing traditional proclamational evangelism centred on knocking down intellectual objections to fa...

Can Science Answer All Of Life's Questions? - Dr. Sharon Dirckx - 22.5.22
Modern Science has greatly impacted human existence. We understand the human body better than ever before and are able to explore the natural world further than ever before. Yet, some think Science can tell us much more than just how the world works: it is able to answer every and any question that we have. Is this true? Or are there significant questions that require other types of expertise? Can Science answer the God question?

Neljännessä jaksossa Rasmus ja Aleksi laittavat jumalatodistukset testiin. Tarkastelemme viittä erilaista usein esitettyä todistusta Jumalan olemassaolon puolesta sekä mahdollisia vasta-argumentteja niille. Törmäämme myös kelloon autiomaassa, hämmästelemme kuinka paljon rantaa on oltava täydellisellä saarella ja pohdimme onko kaikki sallittua, jos Jumala on olemassa. Jaksossa käsiteltävät jumalatodistukset ovat: teleologinen argumentti, argumentti objektiivisesta moraalista, argumentti tietoisuudesta, ontologinen argumentti ja kalam-argumentti.
