Show Notes

It's philosophy week on The Pat Flynn Show, and today we're looking at a classic argument that attempts to answer the question: Why is there something rather than nothing? (If you enjoyed the episode with Dr. Josh Rasmussen or Dr. Delfino, then you are going to equally enjoy this!)

This argument has deep roots, and has been developed and presented in many forms over the centuries as evidence for God by thinkers ranging from Thomas Aquinas to Gottfried Wilhelm Libneiz and many more. Today, I'm joined by Cameron Bertuzzi of Capturing Christianity to hear his presentation and defense of the argument--what it is, and what we can learn from it.
