The Modern Relevance of God
Finding Meaning in an Inverted World
I’m Richard Lloyd Jones, and welcome back to our continuing series. This is Episode 3 of our special podcast series, The Modern Relevance of God.
This episode is the first of 2 parts exploring how science turned its back on God. Well, the dominant scientific view has actually never been tolerant of dissent, and we know the consequences of challenging authority, don’t we? From burning at the stake to shunning to YouTube and Facebook removal to Cancel Culture, the repercussions of independent thinking can be quite drastic. The modern power structure frowns on whistleblowers, and bots and algorithms are programmed to control more and more the scientific and political discourse on our planet.
So today, we’ll introduce some fundamental disagreement with the metaphysical basis of modern science, and science’s part in removing considerations of God from our modern world.
Today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head, our special podcast series, The Modern Relevance of God continues with Episode 3: Science Turns its Back on God.
