Christian faith and science are often viewed as being in conflict in Western culture today. It’s important to understand that science is practiced within a worldview—a specific way of viewing the world, especially what counts for knowledge. Increasingly, people believe that the only things that count for real knowledge are those that can be scientifically verified. Scott and Sean interview Talbot philosopher JP Moreland about his new book, Scientism and Secularism: Learning to Respond to a Dangerous Ideology. Dr. Moreland will connect faith and science in a way consistent with a Christian worldview.
Dr. J.P. Moreland is Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at Talbot. He is the author of more than 30 books and over 100 journal articles and book chapters. He speaks widely on apologetics, philosophy and the spiritual life.
