Spencer Klavan on Science vs. Religion (and Why the Stoics Were Not Materialists) (Episode 155)
Manage episode 447425991 series 3462781
Has Science proven that the world is nothing more than a physical machine without overarching purpose?
Spencer Klavan’s most recent book answers with an emphatic no. Ancient philosophy and modern science reveal that the worldview of materialism is not enough.
Instead, our picture of the world must include mind as a fundamental ingredient – just as the Stoic and Christian worldviews do.
Light of the Mind, Light of the World
(01:28) Resetting the Narrative About Science
(10:14) Science vs. Religion
(23:30) Secularism and the Sacred
(29:48) Genesis
(42:50) The Stoic View of the World
(49:48) Determinism
