Exploring future technologies, using rationality to understand our world, and occasional forays into philosophy and other topics of interest.
In this episode, I sit down with recent Georgia Tech graduate and friend of mine, Andre Suzanne, for a philosophical debate on one of humanity's oldest questions: does God exist? We explore some of the classic arguments that have shaped religious and philosophical thought for centuries.The conversation focuses mostly on foundational arguments like the First Mover, examining whether the universe requires a divine cause or can be explained through natural processes alone. We dive into questions of causation, the nature of existence, and whether philosophical reasoning can lead us to conclusions about these mysteries. In this informal discussion, we examine the logical structure of these age-old debates. From Aristotelian philosophy to modern cosmology, we consider questions that have puzzled thinkers for millennia: What caused the universe to exist? Can something come from nothing? And what role does reason play in questions of faith?Whether you're religious, atheist, or somewhere in between, this episode offers a thoughtful examination of arguments that continue to shape how we think about existence, causation, and the universe's origin.
