In this episode, we tackle the big 3 objections to Pascal's wager and show how they cannot defeat Dr. Rota's version of the argument. Those big 3 objections are: 1) Belief cannot be forced. 2) There are many options for which God or religion to choose. 3) The wager is unChristian as it is motivated by pure self-interest. <a title="Show Notes Page" href= "http://www.classicaltheism.com/core10">www.classicaltheism.com/core10</a>

CORE #10 - Taking Pascal's Wager (Dr. Rota's Version)

The Classical Theism Podcast aims to defend Catholic Christian ideas in conversation. With the help of various guests, I defend three pillars of the Catholic Christian worldview: (1) the God of classical theism exists, (2) Jesus is our Messiah and Lord, and (3) He founded the Catholic Church. We place a strong emphasis on the first pillar, defending classical theism, drawing upon the work of Thomistic philosopher Dr. Edward Feser and many others.
