Thrive Perspectives: Worldview - God of the Gaps

Thrive Perspectives: Worldview - God of the Gaps

Show notes

The god-of-the-gaps argument asserts that it is invalid to introduce God as an explanation for a scientific phenomenon that we cannot currently explain by naturalistic causes. Believers in naturalism take this a step further, and offer the god-of-the-gaps argument against any involvement of God in nature. However, the god-of-the-gaps argument is only good against a particular deistic approach to God and nature, and loses its potency when Scripture and science are pursued together.

In this episode, Matt references the following: A Secular Age - Charles Taylor Francis Bacon The Waning of Materialism The Royal Institutution - Quantum Fields: The Real Building Blocks of the Universe Gerald Shcroeder - The Hidden Face of God
