David and Adam are back at it, exploring the ramifications of philosophy and modern science on the question of God's existence. They begin with a brief conversation about what it means to be a critical realist and then hone back in on Big Bang cosmology while introducing the notion of what is often described as the fine-tuning of the universe.
Show Notes:
· The book David and Adam keep referring to is Stephen C. Meyer's The Return of the God Hypothesis.
· Also see Alister McGrath's A Fine-Tuned Universe and Darwinism and the Divine.
· The Nobel Prize winning astronomer Adam mentioned was Arno Penzias. On the evidence we have from the universe, he commented: "The best data we have are exactly what I would have predicted had I nothing to go on but the five books of Moses, the Psalms, and the Bible as a whole."
