This podcast features a friendly, but spirited debate between Dr. Michael Behe and Dr. Joshua Swamidass over intelligent design, especially as it relates to the notion of "irreducible complexity" and the challenge this poses (as Dr. Behe would argue) to modern evolutionary theory.

Previously, I've had Mike on to debate Dr. Stacy Trasancos and to field objections from John DeRosa and myself.

One of the greatest difficulties in life is the problem of suffering: why do we live in a world with so much nastiness, especially if our world is created by God who is the unrestricted absolute, all-knowing, all-powerful, and all-good? Furthermore, there is data in revelation pointing toward the real possibility of eternal separation from God – a definite, self-excluded state known traditionally as Hell. Finally, what is the role between God and sin; especially since we must affirm that God is the ultimate cause of everything else which exists? Does this also make God the cause of our sin, either directly or indirectly? These are serious questions, and they deserve a serious answer. That's where Dr. Michael Torre comes in. Dr. Michael Torre is a professional philosopher, religious convert from agnosticism, and has specialized on the issue of evil, providence, and human free will. In this episode Dr. Torre defends the general position of Maritain and Marin-Sola is showing how God is certainly not the cause (either directly or indirectly) of sin, against both Molinism and neo-Banezianism. This "3-lane highway" position, argues DR. Torre, is not only faithful to St. Thomas Aquinas, but helps us to maintain both divine innocence and God's universality causality. Please enjoy!

Many of us change positions throughout our lives; political, philosophical, and religious. I have spent considerable time on this podcast discussing my journey from atheism to theism, and eventually right on through to Catholicism. I have, however, also hinted occasionally at my development in political thought, from liberal, to libertarian, and, finally, to common good conservatism. This episode -- in which I am joined by Dr. Tyler McNabb (bio and website here)-- details some of the arguments against liberal political philosophy (and especially libertarianism) that we ultimately found convincing, before we turn to an interesting new article published by McNabb entitled By Who's Authority: A Political Argument for God's Existence, which critiques secular frameworks for grounding political authority and provides a plausible theistic alternative. Please enjoy. Mentioned Resources/Related Episodes We mentioned Patrick Deneen's excellent book Why Liberalism Failed. Also, What Is Marriage? Too, Michael Huemer's book The Problem of Political Authority. And finally, Tyler's book on religious epistemology. Edward Feser (who we mentioned in the episode) explains why he departed libertarianism, as well, and offers further critiques, here. Brian Besong offers a great introductory text to traditional natural law theory; and the Cambridge Companion is fantastic, as well. Tim Hsaio provides a critique of consent-based ethical theory. https://www.chroniclesofstrength.com/sunday-school-from-agnosticism-to-catholicism-with-dr-tyler-mcnabb/ https://www.chroniclesofstrength.com/the-philosophical-approach-to-god-with-dr-robert-koons/ The Pat Flynn Show If you enjoyed this episode, it would mean the world to me if you could subscribe to, and leave a review for, The Pat Flynn show on iTunes HERE or Stitcher HERE.
