Scientific evidence versus religious belief – Jonathan McLatchie & Elliot George debate
Summary: <br> <p>Elliot George is a retired science teacher whose new book “Godbuster: Exorcises all known gods” claims that science is about evidence whereas religion is about ‘belief’(and should therefore be rejected).</p><br> <p>Jonathan McLatchie is a Christian currently studying for a PhD in cell biology. He says Elliot’s book is badly flawed, and that Christian belief is evidence-based because science itself lends support to the case for God.</p> <br> <p>They debate the meaning of belief, whether design is a good explanation in biology and why Jonathan chooses to believe Christianity over any other worldview.</p><br> <p>MP3 of this show <a href="http://cdnapi.kaltura.com/p/618072/sp/61807200/playManifest/entryId/1_2cvyzc5o/flavorId/1_2cvyzc5o/protocol/http/format/url/a.mp3">here.</a></p><br> <p>For ‘Godbuster’ <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Godbuster-Banishes-all-known-gods/dp/0992853508">http://www.amazon.co.uk/Godbuster-Banishes-all-known-gods/dp/0992853508</a></p><br> <p>For the ‘Godbuster’ Facebook group: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/358789887554799/">https://www.facebook.com/groups/358789887554799/</a></p><br> <p>For Jonathan McLatchie <a href="http://crossexamined.org/author/jonathan-m/">http://crossexamined.org/author/jonathan-m/</a></p><br> <p>For more faith debates visit <a href="http://www.premierchristianradio.com/www.premierchristianradio.com/unbelievable">www.premierchristianradio.com/unbelievable</a></p><br> <p>Join the conversation: <a href="http://www.facebook.com/unbelievablejb">Facebook</a> and <a href="http://www.twitter.com/unbelievablejb">Twitter</a></p><br> <p>Get the MP3 podcast of Unbelievable? <a href="http://www.kaltura.com/api_v3/getFeed.php?partnerId=618072&feedId=1_jlj47tkv">http://www.kaltura.com/api_v3/getFeed.php?partnerId=618072&feedId=1_jlj47tkv</a> or Via <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=267142101">Itunes</a></p>
