This week, we spoke with Dr. Tania Lombrozo, a Professor of Psychology at Princeton University, as well as an Associate of the Department of Philosophy and the University Center for Human Values. Topics included: what prompts us to believe something, whether that's a religious credo, or a scientific explanation? Are those processes of belief the same or different when we think about religious or scientific answers? What counts as evidence for that belief, and who decides?
