159 snips Aug 1, 2024
John Bergsma, a former Protestant pastor and current Professor of Theology at Franciscan University, dives deep into the compelling relationship between science and belief in God. He discusses how advancements in cosmology, particularly the Big Bang theory, support theism, and toys with the intriguing notion of cosmic fine-tuning as evidence of a creator. The conversation further explores philosophical challenges of life's origins, the implications of the Cambrian explosion on evolutionary theory, and how quantum mechanics may hint at the divine.
