Scientism Is Self-Refuting – Ep.326 – Scientism & Secularism – Scientism Is Self-Refuting & Scientism Is the Enemy of Science – Cave To The Cross Apologetics – Part 1

June 16, 2025 • 23 mins

Scientism Is Self-Refuting Now that we've defined our terms about scientism, what makes it so dangerous? Here we introduce that scientism is self-refuting. This matters because the claims scientism makes means that it then makes science impossible to do. Moreland gives six presuppositions that actual science rests upon and in upcoming episodes we'll look at those presuppositions. TIMELINE: 00:00 - Introduction 03:09 - Strong Scient...

The Ugly Source Of Scientism Where did scientism come from? What is the ugly source of scientism? Would anyone be shocked to learn that the love of war and government overreach has led to negative outcomes? This includes universities divorcing their ethics lessons from everything but the humanities. Now, the source for moralism in college is...football?

Scientism Ruins Lives – Ep.324 – Scientism & Secularism – Why Scientism Matters – Cave To The Cross Apologetics

June 2, 2025 • 31 mins

Scientism Ruins Lives Now that we've defined scientism, we have to talk about why it matters. How scientism ruins lives of us in our so-called modern world. It is exactly those ideas that the West, western science, and Christianity helped to bake into the culture that are eroding away. It's almost like a foundation has been replaced with sand and it's shifting. TIMELINE: 00:00 - Introduction 01:46 - Why Should We Care About Scienti...

Defining Scientism We kick off our book on scientism by doing what we always advocate for - defining our terms. Here, J.P. Moreland is defining scientism and explaining exactly why it is a dangerous ideology. We then go on to list a few examples from the world of politics, social advice, government schools, and even scientists themselves.

Introduction To Moreland & His Book We kick off our book looking at not only the introduction of the book, but the introduction to Moreland and who he is and his background. This is a wonderful reading on the science background of J.P. Moreland and shows us why he's the guy to write a book on scientism and its dangers to the Church and the world.

Miracle Claims Vs. Hume – Ep.321 – Miracles – Developing Hume’s Skepticism Toward Miracles – Part 5

May 5, 2025 • 30 mins

Miracle Claims Vs. Hume And as we wind down our takedown of Hume, we take one final look at Miracle Claims vs. Hume. We address the valid question about competing miracle claims as well as looking at if the Western worldview has outpaced the belief in miracles. Is it over? Have miracles been knocked out of the picture? Well - I didn't hear no bell. Timeline: 00:00 - Introduction 00:58 - We Wouldn't Want Hume To Be Biased - Right? 0...

Hume’s Biased Naturalism – Ep.320 – Miracles – Developing Hume’s Skepticism Toward Miracles – Part 4

April 28, 2025 • 24 mins

Hume's Biased Naturalism Coming into the final episodes of this book, we go after Hume's naturalism being viewed as unbiased science. In fact, it is biased, can't help but be biased, and by claiming not to want to take sides in religious debates...takes sides in religious debates. Hume's biased naturalism has been unchallenged in academia, but not here on this highly, HIGHLY respected show. Timeline: 00:00 - Introduction 01:11 - Th...

Hume Humiliated In History – Ep.319 – Miracles – Developing Hume’s Skepticism Toward Miracles – Part 3

April 21, 2025 • 26 mins

Hume Humiliated In History After looking at the science and philosophy of Hume, we now look at his take and impact on history. With looking at how the academy views the science of history we see that Hume is humiliated in history because he helped change what good history actually looks like. We discuss what that looks like and the repercussions here. Timeline: 00:00 - Introduction 03:39 - Answering The False Principle Of Analogy F...

Agents Enter Into The Picture A little shorter episode this week as this section and the next section have two different focuses. We look at how Hume seems to carve out outside agents enter into the picture to save natural law. The only problem with that is then you leave out those pesky humans to be able to enter into the normal course of events to upset it all.

The Bad Effects Of Hume’s Philosophy – Ep.317 – Miracles – Developing Hume’s Skepticism toward Miracle – Part 1

April 7, 2025 • 22 mins

The Bad Effects Of Hume's Philosophy The bad effects of Hume's philosophy might not seem apparent on the surface; people have been disagreeing about miracles even as they happen. Yet, Hume supported locking people up in insane asylums who believed miracles happened. And while his support for his movement crumbled while failing to uphold its own standard, it led to religious studies being devalued and it helped in the lead up to lib...

Circular David Hume & His Critics – Ep.316 – Miracles – Hume and the Philosophic Questions – Part 5

March 31, 2025 • 20 mins

Circular David Hume & His Critics Finishing up looking at David Hume's Philosophy and we see that Hume is being so circular that you'll find yourself dizzy. While he redefines miracles, provides circular arguments, and then begs the question, Hume won't even allow the possibility of a miracle claim to be presented to be considered. Ol' circular David Hume is not being a good philosopher and he's being a bit lazy. Timeline: 00:00 - ...

Hume Destroys Testimony – All Testimony – Ep.315 – Miracles – Hume and the Philosophic Questions – Part 4

March 24, 2025 • 25 mins

Hume Destroys Testimony - All Testimony Hume is back at it again with destroying more of our ability to know things. Here, we look at how Hume destroys testimony - all testimony. His standard for witnesses is so unreasonable that no witnesses can match it. His description of the normal goings of nature leaves no room for unusual events - even events we know happen. Hume is really losing a lot just to not accept miracles. Timeline: ...

Can Hume Get A Witness? – Ep.314 – Miracles – Hume and the Philosophic Questions – Part 3

March 17, 2025 • 21 mins

Can Hume Get A Witness? Looking at David Hume's philosophy on miracles, now we find ourselves not seeing Hume interact with miracle claims, but questioning if someone can even be a witness to a miracle. Can Hume get a witness? It seems his standard is both circular and redefining of key terms. We see that taking Hume at his standard not only allows for no inductive evidence to come in but leads to some repercussions in daily life t...

Dismantling David Hume We start dismantling David Hume at the best place to start - the beginning. Hume's definition of miracles, his epistemology, and his claim of neutrality are the best places to see if the foundation of his critique cracks or even fails to support his claims.

Unbiased Ancient Historians & Biased Modern Day Ones Before we dig into Hume, we finish our discussion on unbiased ancient historians and then bring in the fact that modern day historians tend to be more biased.
