Does God Exist?
Peter Boghossian presented the claim “God exists” to a gentleman in Regent’s Park, London. The ensuing conversation examines the reasoning behind his responses.
Peter asks the young man to consider God’s existence compared to other unseen entities, competing origin theories, and religious testimony. The value of personal feelings and experience is considered, revealing the level of evidence this participant requires to change his mind.
Was the Socratic method doing some heavy lifting here or does this gentleman simply rate high on agreeableness? Not sure, but he seems so affable, I would have offered to buy him lunch.
Brilliant conversation. And love that he couldn’t pin your beliefs down based on your questioning. Thanks for modeling great conversation and logic.
