“The Holocaust Wasn’t ‘Wrong’? A Supreme Court Judge Said That…” ft. Dr. Barry Arrington

What if the foundation of human rights isn’t as solid as we think?

In this powerful episode of The Science Dilemma Podcast, Allan CP sits down with Dr. Barry Arrington — a seasoned constitutional attorney, author of Unforgetting God, and a key figure in high-profile legal battles — to tackle one of the most unsettling questions in modern philosophy and law: Can we call the Holocaust objectively wrong if we remove God from the equation?

Arrington argues that materialism — the belief that nothing exists except particles in motion — is dismantling justice, morality, and human dignity. Drawing from his decades of courtroom experience and personal encounters with tragedies like Columbine, he reveals how our culture’s drift from a God-centered worldview is reshaping laws, eroding the meaning of “justice,” and opening the door to moral chaos.

This conversation dives into:

• Why a federal judge claimed Americans can’t say the Holocaust was “objectively wrong” — and why that matters.
• How critical theory’s oppressor-vs-oppressed narrative grows naturally out of a materialist worldview.
• The shocking North Korea story that proves “you gotta serve somebody.”
• Why rights must either come from God or government — there’s no middle ground.
• How atheistic materialism undermines the Constitution, natural law, and even free will.
• A legal defense for transcendent morality and why Western civil rights movements were rooted in biblical thought.
• How Unforgetting God calls both Christians and skeptics to evaluate the evidence for faith.

If you’ve ever wondered whether justice, morality, and human rights can survive without God, or if you’re seeking clarity on how faith and law intersect in today’s culture wars, this episode will challenge and equip you.

Two Fathers for Joseph? The Bible Genealogy ‘Contradiction’ Explained ft. Dr. Robert Carter

In this episode of The Science Dilemma, Allan CP sits down with Dr. Robert Carter (Creation Ministries International) to tackle one of the most common challenges skeptics raise about the Bible: the genealogies of Jesus.

Are Matthew and Luke really giving Joseph two different fathers? Is this a contradiction, or is there a deeper historical and theological explanation? Dr. Carter brings nearly two decades of research and ministry experience to unpack the complexity of genealogies, their importance in Scripture, and how they actually strengthen the reliability of the Bible rather than undermine it.

You’ll learn:

• Why genealogies matter for both prophecy and theology.
• How Matthew and Luke present different perspectives on Joseph’s lineage.
• Why the early church never “fixed” the genealogies, even though critics call them contradictions.
• How genealogies connect Jesus to both King David and Adam.
• Why resolving hard questions about the Bible leads to greater confidence in its truth.

This conversation is both eye-opening and faith-building, equipping families, churches, and students to see God’s Word as trustworthy in every detail.

This New York Times AI Story Will Stun You (Doug Axe Responds) ft. Dr. Douglas Axe

In this episode of The Science Dilemma, Allan CP sits down with Dr. Douglas Axe — molecular biologist, author, and leading voice in the Intelligent Design movement — to respond to a shocking New York Times story about a man who spiraled into delusion after conversations with AI chatbots.

Dr. Axe unpacks:

• Why AI can seem human but will never actually think like us
• The dangerous illusion of treating chatbots as trustworthy companions
• How AI is trained to flatter users (and why that matters)
• The profound difference between human minds and machine outputs
• Why our intelligence points to something far beyond algorithms

Along the way, Doug shares his perspective on the chasm between human intelligence and artificial intelligence, why confusion about AI feeds materialist worldviews, and why remembering the Imago Dei is essential in our tech-driven culture.

Top Atheists Use God to Prove Evolution?! 🤯

Description:

Dr. Steve Dilley uncovers something wild: the two most popular pro-evolution books—written by outspoken atheists Richard Dawkins and Jerry Coyne—use theology to make their best arguments for evolution. And they contradict each other completely.

In this episode, we break down how these claims show up in college textbooks, how they impact students, and why asking two simple questions—“What’s the claim?” and “What’s the evidence?”—can change everything.

Perfect for middle and high school families, students, and youth leaders navigating science and faith conversations.

Topics Covered:

• Why top atheists rely on theology to argue for evolution
• How Coyne and Dawkins contradict each other
• The hidden theological claims in science textbooks
• What questions students need to ask to think critically
• How intelligent design responds to these contradictions

🎓 Guest: Dr. Steve Dilley – philosopher, professor, and contributor to Discovery Institute
