60 The Evident, Evidence, and Faith, Part 3

The Christian Atheist - A podcast by Dr. John D. Wise

We resume our series examining the concepts of the evident, evidence and faith. What is faith? From where does it originate? What does it mean to have evidence for what you believe? Is faith the foundation for knowledge, or knowledge the foundation for faith? Most atheists and theists have never thought systematically about these questions, but they are foundational for any rational conclusions we may draw about God’s existence or non-existence. We begin our discussion by attempting to unravel the difficult issue of the evident, then we turn our attention to human rational freedom, the ideal and metaphysics. Join us as we try to make sense of where we all stand before the Looking glass. Last episode we examined freedom and metaphysics in relation to the evident, and this week we explore the chosen and fundamental metaphysical stances that determine our rational approach to our world.
