Two of my friends alerted me to a bunch of recent shows posted on Sean McDowell’s popular YouTube channel. I always like shows where there are discussions of evidennce – topics like economics and science are best for me. Well, Sean has had a bunch of good guests on good topics. The key thing about his recent shows is that he is doing 2-part shows. The first makes a positive case, and the second is about how to answer objections to that case.
The first guest is Dr. Stephen C. Meyer, and he talks about the origin of the universe:
And then there is a second show, where Sean talks with a Biola University philosopher about objections to the origin of the universe:
The second guest is Dr. Doug Axe. I met Dr. Axe way back at the Baylor Conference on intelligent design in April, 2000. He talks about the evidence for design in the origin of life, which is what his research is on.
Here is his “positive case” show:
And then here is the second show, where they discuss objections to the positive case:
So, if you watch both of these, you will really learn something about how to talk about this topic.
The third guest is Dr. Jay Richards. You might remember him, because we had him on the Knight and Rose Show. His topic was the fine-tuning argument. I am running into Christians at work who are just trying to learn this argument, so I hope this video helps them.
Here is the first show – the positive case:
And here is the second show, where they answer objections to the positive case:
By the way, if you like David Wood, he has a recent episode with David Wood about the biggest problem in Islam right now. Which is the biggest problem? I would say either the Islamic Dilemma or the research coming out on Quran variations. It looks like they go over a whole bunch of problems!
Finally, if you like listening to Sean McDowell, we had him on an episode of the Knight and Rose Show, where he talked about the fate of the Apostles. So if you missed that, then you can go back and listen.
