Arguing about Religion | Open College No. 35 | Stephen Hicks

To be human is to grapple with the big questions and the crucial values of life. Religion is a kind of philosophy, with answers to life's questions about who we are, where we came from, and what really matters. So, what should we think about religion?
In this podcast, Dr. Hicks looks at the role that reason, evidence and logic and faith play in religious belief. He concludes that the truth about religion can be known only by a mind that assesses the evidence and judges it independently.
For some time, Professor Hicks has been doing a philosophical analysis podcast on a wide range of contemporary topics. It has been available on a number of other platforms. It is now being offered on KZbin as well. Its mission is to “ to explain the chaos.”
Stephen R. C. Hicks, Ph.D., is Professor of Philosophy at Rockford University, USA, and has had visiting positions at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., University of Kasimir the Great in Poland, Oxford University’s Harris Manchester College in England, and Jagiellonian University in Poland.
