Episode notes

The differences between science and religion aren't necessarily about what's based in fact, but on the tools that we have to give explanations.

"I oftentimes hear people who are deeply religious will say things like, well, grandma died because it was her time"

This program was recorded at a Veritas Forum event on University of Washington in 2019. The original title was, "Does Science Point to Atheism?" and featured Satyan Devadoss, University of San Diego Professor, and Conor Mayo-Wilson, University of Washington Professor.
