God or Not - Ep 021: Epistemology Again


Listen Later

How do your biases affect what kinds of arguments and evidence you will accept? Is it just based on the quality (or lack thereof) of the arguments, or is it possible to blind yourself to reason? Jamie tries again to make the case that Scott is just not giving his arguments a fair shake.

In "Spin the Wheel", Jamie talks about his take on the separation of church and state, and Scott talks about that old chestnut, Pascal's Wager.

As further study Jamie recommends "Making Sense of God: An Invitation to the Skeptical" by Timothy Keller, and Scott recommends "The Believing Brain: From Ghosts and Gods to Politics and Conspiracies - How We Construct Beliefs and Reinforce Them as Truths" by Michael Shermer.
