Atheist Admits Atheism Can’t Justify Science – Ep.357 – The Great Debate – Bahnsen’s 2nd Cross-Examination

Atheist Admits Atheism Can’t Justify Science

A slightly shorter episode due to sickness by the editor but nonetheless still an important part of the Great Debate.

Here, Stein, the atheist admits atheism can’t justify science especially when it comes to induction. This issue that David Hume identified the problem with not having justification that the future will be like the past was identified all the way back during the Enlightenment and those enlightened ones who wanted to shake off God also shook off the justification of the use of science.
