Philosophy for All

Send us a textDespite popular debates' interest in the problem of evil, scholars have mostly focused on whether evil poses an intellectual challenge, probabilistically, against the existence of God. Alternatively, a lesser focused discussion in the problem of evil is the growing movement of anti-theodical literature. In this interview, Dr. Sami Pihlström introduces us to anti-theodicy and its nuances. Dr Sami Pihlstöm is a Professor of Philosophy of Religion at the University of Helsinki. He is one of the leading proponents and defenders of anti-theodicy in contemporary literature. Support the show--------------------------If you would want to support the channel and what I am doing, please follow me on Patreon: www.patreon.com/christianityforall Where else to find Josh Yen: Philosophy YT: https://bit.ly/philforallEducation: https://bit.ly/joshyenBuisness: https://bit.ly/logoseduMy Website: https://joshuajwyen.com/

Send us a textThe philosophy of religion is a broad field of different arguments and sections. So is Christian YouTube with cultural commentary, apologetics, lectures, academic work and so much more. For this reason, I thought it would be a great idea to get Joseph Schmid from the Majesty of Reason to talk to us about both these fields in which he is an expert. He is a PhD student at Princeton University studying Philosophy as well as having amassed over 20k subscribers on his YouTube channel! I hope you enjoy.Support the show--------------------------If you would want to support the channel and what I am doing, please follow me on Patreon: www.patreon.com/christianityforall Where else to find Josh Yen: Philosophy YT: https://bit.ly/philforallEducation: https://bit.ly/joshyenBuisness: https://bit.ly/logoseduMy Website: https://joshuajwyen.com/
