Show Notes

Religion and….science? Yep, you read that right! So many people think that religion and science are incompatible, but this could not be further from the Truth. 

 

Pope John Paul II said in his encyclical Fides et Ratio that “Faith and reason are like two wings on which the human spirit rises to the contemplation of truth; and God has placed in the human heart a desire to know the truth—in a word, to know himself—so that, by knowing and loving God, men and women may also come to the fullness of truth about themselves.”

 

Enter Fr. Robert Spitzer, an insanely smart priest, author, and president of the Magis Center. We talk today all about how science and religion are not only compatible, but also how both are essential in the order of the Universe created by God. We also talk about refuting common objections to the existence of God, the time he debated Stephen Hawking, and whether or not he believes aliens exist.
