Send us a textThere are many arguments for protestantism and many of them are powerful and ought to be taken seriously. However, some arguments have just such weird implications which are just flat out ridiculous.

Send us a textDespite popular debates' interest in the problem of evil, scholars have mostly focused on whether evil poses an intellectual challenge, probabilistically, against the existence of God. Alternatively, a lesser focused discussion in the problem of evil is the growing movement of anti-theodical literature. In this interview, Dr. Sami Pihlström introduces us to anti-theodicy and its nuances. Dr Sami Pihlstöm is a Professor of Philosophy of Religion at the University of Helsinki. He is one of the leading proponents and defenders of anti-theodicy in contemporary literature. Faith That Challenges. Conversations that Matter. Laughs included.

Send us a textThe philosophy of religion is a broad field of different arguments and sections. So is Christian YouTube with cultural commentary, apologetics, lectures, academic work and so much more. For this reason, I thought it would be a great idea to get Joseph Schmid from the Majesty of Reason to talk to us about both these fields in which he is an expert. He is a PhD student at Princeton University studying Philosophy as well as having amassed over 20k subscribers on his YouTube channel! I hope you enjoy.Faith That Challenges.
