epistemological problems
Riveting 20-minute conversation between Michael Horton (of The White Horse Inn) and Michael Shermer (of Skeptic magazine). It’s fascinating to hear Horton lead Shermer away from the traditional apologetic strongholds of attempting to prove the existence of God and instead, toward the historicity of Jesus and the Resurrection. I don’t think Shermer was expecting it, and it seemed to catch him off guard a bit; he seemed to be out of his comfort zone of arguing “objective science versus subjective religion” and started offering up more easily-defeatable positions like “Well, 6 billion people all believe different things about a higher power; they can’t all be right, can they?” Among other things.
It’s a great listen.
Here’s the follow-up conversation between Horton and Greg Koukl (of Stand to Reason).
