A bit of wisdom, from the beginning (Spring/Summer 2011)

I think it is fairly clear that the foundation for the atheism of the Four Horseman of Atheism (Dawkins, Dennett, Harris and Hitchens) is Science, with a capital “S.” So it is important to try to understand what has been happening in science over the last 50 years.

The divine foot (Spring/Summer 2019)

The common worldview known as scientific materialism was formulated early in the twentieth century as the philosophy which holds that matter is the fundamental substance in nature and that all things, including the cerebral, are the result of material interactions.

From Chaos to Order (Spring/Summer 2024)

Chance and necessity have failed. In his book, “Return of the God Hypothesis,” author and philosopher of science, Stephen Meyer, leads us deftly through the long and fascinating history of scientific inquiry into the Big Bang, the fine tuning of the universe and the DNA ordering. He shows us how, over the last century, knowledge of the Big Bang proves that the universe is not eternal, that the existence of the fine-tuning of our universe depends on the values of necessary, specific fundamental constants, and that the discovery of the DNA ordering for proteins cannot result from chance.
