Faith Science
Welcome to Faith Science, a podcast where faith and science intersect in fascinating conversations. Join us as we talk with guests about how their pursuit of knowledge and understanding has affected their faith in God. In a world where atheism often claims science as its own, we present a different narrative: the pursuit of knowledge in science can coexist with and even strengthen belief in the Divine. Faith Science offers a unique perspective with inspiring stories, thoughtful reflections, and a celebration of the harmony between belief and empirical discovery.

Evolution Leads to Racism? | Faith Science, episode 53.
Jerry read several quotes from Charles Darwin's The Descent of Man to demonstrate several of Darwin's beliefs: that white people were superior to others, that more civilized (i.e., evolved) people would eventually exterminate the less civilized humans, and that compassion in humanity (in the form of asylums, laws to help the poor, vaccinations, and hospitals) resulted in a weaker human race. He then showed the logical connection between Darwin's macroevolutionary hypothesis and false ideas such as racism, eugenics, and Nazism. He ended by showing that a belief in the Bible cannot logically lead to racism.
