Pat takes the Catholic side, Aaron comes from the perspective of a non-demoninational Evangelical. The topics hit upon are quite diverse, and include: The authority and interpretation of Scripture; most importantly: Is Scripture the only authority? Or is Scripture just an authority? How do we know? What the Catholic Church is, and isn't. Pat's reasons for leaving Protestantism and becoming Catholic, and Aaron's responses. A discussion of the Church fathers and what they believed. What does faith really mean, and how can it be justified? The Catholic vs Protestant view of Salvation. How each side addresses the Problem of Evil. The gentleman even begin with some thoughts on Jordan Peterson and how he seems to effectively be serving as a bridge to religion for a many people, even if both Aaron and Pat would disagree with a certain number of his theological viewpoints, which are also discussed.

Pat is joined by Dr. Michael Behe to discuss the work he's done as a molecular biologist with respect to the theory of evolution and intelligent design. Dr. Behe contends the more we discover about the molecular level of life, the more challenges are brought against the modern Darwinian theory of evolution. Do his claims hold up? You'll just have to listen to the interview and decide for yourself! ... Show Notes and Resources To grab Dr. Behe's new book Darwin Devolves, and to see his rebuttals to critics, visit: https://darwindevolves.com/ ... Michael J.

Pat (Catholic), Aleks (Jewish), and Som (Hindu) talk about the intersection between faith and science, and how, while there may occasionally appear to be superficial conflict between religion and science, there is, in fact, deep and necessary concord between a theistic worldview, reason, and the scientific method. In this episode: How science actually points toward (and not away) from God's existence. Why "Scientism" isn't actually science, and should be rejected How we can know of God's existence through reason alone Why many of the points of "superficial conflict" are the result of misinterpreting religious teaching And more! ...

Ashwagandha is an adaptogenic herb which has been repeatedly shown to be effective at quelling anxiety, improving a person's response to stress, and having neuroprotective properties. There is even some evidence that it may increase physical performance, as well. Here's one study (randomized double-blind, placebo controlled, etc) showing Ashwaganda's effectiveness in reducing stress and anxiety: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3573577/ Conclusion: "The findings of this study suggest that a high-concentration full-spectrum Ashwagandha root extract safely and effectively improves an individual's resistance towards stress and thereby improves self-assessed quality of life." Another scientific overview can be found here: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3252722/ Conclusion: "The available scientific data support the conclusion that Ashwagandha is a real potent regenerative tonic (Rasayana of Ayurveda), due to its multiple pharmacological actions like anti-stress, neuroprotective, antitumor, anti-arthritic, analgesic and anti-inflammatory etc. It is useful for different types of diseases like Parkinson, dementia, memory loss, stress induced diseases, malignoma and others." ...
