Fr. Robert J. Sptizer, Ph.D, joins Pat Flynn to discuss the relationship between faith and reason, and how science, when properly understood, strongly points to the existence of God.
From the discovery of a “finely-tuned” universe in contemporary cosmology, to the studies on near death experiences and terminal lucidity, this conversation is sure to fascinate anyone who’s interested in the understanding the deep compatibility between faith and reason.
Furthermore, Pat brings a host of theological questions to Fr. Spitzer–questions from what exactly we’ll do in heaven, and how to suffer well on earth–that listeners have sent in.
