Can Science Disprove God Without Destroying Itself?
Description
Douglas Axe examines the fundamental rift between theistic and materialistic worldviews regarding the origin of life and human consciousness. He breaks down the limits of both pure physical materialism and theistic evolution, arguing that physical laws alone cannot account for human nature and thought. Through the "argument from introspection," Axe highlights how all rational thought and scientific inquiry rely on baseline foundational assumptions—namely, that our minds are trustworthy and that external reality is genuine—which must be taken on faith before science can even begin. He warns against self-defeating scientific theories that inadvertently undermine the very validity of human reasoning required to construct them. Finally, Axe illustrates the distinction between physical hardware and abstract thought by using a classic classroom riddle about where mathematical numbers truly reside.
