Show Notes

Dr. Alister McGrath, an author of over 50 books, a professor who has taught at Oxford, Cambridge, and Regent in Canada, and an intellectual with three doctorates, discusses why "New Atheism" succeeded for a time but then ultimately failed as a cultural movement. He also analyzes what has been left in its wake and how believers can best speak into this bizarre cultural moment, where large swathes of Western civilization are now both post-Christian & post-Atheist.

In this episode, philosopher and theologian Fr. Robert Spitzer breaks down a modern, 5-step metaphysical proof for the existence of God based on Bernard Lonergan’s syllogism. Together, we explore why the universe cannot explain its own existence and why pure logic demands a single, uncaused, and unrestricted reality. Each step methodically dismantles common naturalistic objections while bridging classical philosophy, contemporary physics, and epistemology. Watch to see how rigorous deductive reasoning leads directly to the ultimate foundation of reality.
