Episode 12 kicks off a short, 2-part series on Pascal's Wager. I remember hearing the wager years ago thinking to myself it sounded pretty reasonable. If Christianity is true, there's tons to gain, and if it's false, very little to lose. That seems to make it pretty rational to commit to God. It wasn't until years later that I heard good objections to the Wager--the kind of objections that really made me doubt its validity. Fortunately for us, we have an expert on Pascal's Wager, Dr. Michael Rota, to help us think through this very interesting argument. He's written a book entitled Taking Pascal's Wager where he updates the argument and defends it against the biggest objections. If sound, Dr. Rota's version of the Wager makes it reasonable to commit to God even if you're just 50% sure of his existence, thus, lowering the bar for Natural Theology. Definitely give this one a listen! Website: www.capturingchristianity.com Patreon: www.patreon.com/capturingchristianity
