In this episode, Pastor Jay Lee interviews self-professing atheist and skeptic Calvin Smith. In the first half, Pastor Jay poses some questions about the problems of finding meaning & purpose in life and the grounding of any objective sense of morality without the existence of a god, and how logical evidence suggests the possible existence of a god. In the second half, Calvin poses some questions to Pastor Jay about the immoral actions of God in the Bible, the equivalence of the Bible with other religious texts like the Quran or Book of Mormon, and reasons why we should believe in Jesus over any other god.
