God: Arguments For and Against | Prof. Graham Oppy

In this episode, Professor Graham Oppy and I explore arguments for and against the existence of God. We discuss cosmological, design, moral, ontological, and other arguments, as well as naturalism, atheism, agnosticism, and how worldviews are formed. Professor Oppy explains what makes a philosophical argument strong, why disagreements about God are so difficult to resolve, and why he thinks there are no successful arguments on either side that force everyone to agree. We also explore the problem of evil, animal suffering, divine attributes, Pascal’s wager, miracles, the resurrection, religious experience, and whether someone can be a Christian without believing in supernatural claims. Finally, we discuss faith, hope, free will, and what it means to trust in things outside of our control.
