In this episode I briefly introduce the famous Problem of Induction and give two simple examples of how we can use the purely deductive Reduction to Absurdity technique to arrive at 100% logical certainty concerning not only mathematical truths, but even fundamental principles of physical science.

Michael reached out to me by email. His mother was at one time a Byzantine Catholic Nun for 13 years before meeting Michael's father, who had studied at Catholic Seminary. He lost his faith as a young adult and now identifies as Atheist.

This episode was inspired by two very different CVS listeners, John Revell and Robert White. I talk about solipsism and the irrational abuse of our freedom and every other good gift from our loving God, who is, in spite of our selfish tantrums, courting us with limitless patience. The bottom line: get over yourself, and let yourself be seduced by the King of Kings.

I met Ken Hensley on the Coming Home Network online community. Ken does pastoral care, manages online communities, writes apologetics articles, leads retreats and pilgrimages and much more for the CHNetwork. It was a real pleasure meeting him.

This is my first ever "in absentia" ersatz interview. It was inspired by its namesake, Robert White, whom I have never met in real life, as far as I know--although that would be even more hilarious. In any case, this is just a fun survey of his trite anti-Catholic comments, which he has been scattering like high-octane manure all over my YouTube channel for the past 36 hours or so. Enjoy!

Eric Steinhart is a philosopher of religion specializing in new and emerging religions. Eric comes from a long line of evangelical congregationalist preachers. He no longer identifies as Christian, but does not see much value in the label atheist either. It was a fun chat.

I met Lucas about 10 years ago. He got my attention at a dinner party when he announced that he had met and talked with angels. We had some heated exchanges via email at that time, but I think we have both mellowed with age. I haven't seen him in a while, and so I'm glad he agreed to be interviewed. I enjoyed our brief chat.
