  • 9 Criticisms to Expose Scientism with Science
    Join Jeremy and Jacob as they reveal the top 9 criticisms of Scientism. Famous atheist philosopher Bertrand Russell once said: “What science cannot discover, mankind cannot know.” More recently, Popular outspoken atheist psychologist Steven Pinker recently shared that it’s not religion or the humanities but science that illuminates “the deepest questions about who we are, where we came from, and how we define the meaning and purpose of our lives.” These bold claims are reflections of the successful advances of science. But “success” is an understatement. Science has dominated. Science is hailed as the final authority because its answers to so many fundamental human questions have proven reliable. Science is now trusted with the keys to true knowledge, even on matters once attributed to the humanities, religion, and the arts. This is the view known as Scientism. But can science really address everything? Does science really have answers for all questions? Just where does the scope of science end? They tackle these questions in this show, fully exposing Scientism by examining it in light of the true nature of science.

  • Secular Humanism: Bioengineering the Abolition of Man
    Join Jeremy and Jacob as they reveal the dark utopia of unbridled Secular Humanism. They use C.S. Lewis’ classic work “The Abolition of Man” to weigh in on the foundational principles of Secular Humanism and the remaking of man as seen in new bioengineering marvels. In many ways, the intriguing innovations of bioengineering are gradually changing what it means to be human. Embryonic genetic modifications, accessory technological implants, transplants, face-lifts, etc. show our instinctive desire for transcendence over nature. We now have the power to play God and in some sense become God-like. This is the real goal of Secular Humanism. Existentialist Jean Paul Sartre said “Man is the being who wants to be God.” But is this instinctive drive for all authority over ourselves acceptable? Does ability equal right? Who decides the greatest good of humanity? We conclude that the best future for humanity is still based on our imago dei.
