More from Tim Keller today - here’s a talk he gave at Google on the subject of his recent book: The Reason For God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism
I watched this through with a non-Christian friend last night, which took a while as we kept pausing it for discussion (my friend didn’t agree with a lot of it). I recommend that non-Christians and Christians watch it, for the reasons Keller explains at the start of his talk.
The actual talk is about 40 min, then there’s Q&A. Comment below!
Watched half of this a few weeks ago - need to finish it sometime. What were the main points of discussion?
The points were numerous, but the main ones were:
- the suffering counter argument means that we cannot ever really know anything about God. Might be being stupid but can’t see that myself
- Keller’s handling of the anthropic principle was debated
- Naturalistic explanations for morality were discussed
- What ‘faith’ is
- Cultural relativism
