TIME STAMPS & CALL NOTES

00:00 - Intro - What Is Faith Good For?
05:34 - Losing My Trust In God’s Plan - Lisa (she/her) - CO
22:07 - Theist Claims We All Have Faith - JB (he/him) - CO
1:09:33 - Muslim Caller Has Subjective Evidence for God - Sajid (he/him) - CAN

05:34
This caller is trying to figure out what is stopping her from deconverting. Where does her fear lie? At first she thought it was the fear of Hell, but more and more she is realizing: it’s the realization that there may not be a Plan or a Purpose for everything. What advice do the hosts have for someone grappling with this feeling of insecurity?

22:07
We may have a new pre-sup theist caller! At least, that’s where this argument seems to be going. Do we all have faith? Is there such a thing as a truly evidence-based worldview? Are all of Eric’s arguments inescapably circular? Eric gets riled up and calls BS.

1:09:33
Repeat Muslim caller Sajid wants to dive into evidence for unseen beings and miracles. He appeals to both subjective and objective evidence. Vi breaks down the difference between the two. Can subjective experiences become stronger through corroboration? What happens when two people’s subjective experiences contradict each other? How about contradictory experiences of God?
