  • Should We Have the Right to Die? The Assisted Dying Debate in the UK Neil McKain vs Prof Keith Brown
    Nov 22 2024
    As the UK prepares for a crucial parliamentary debate on the Assisted Dying Bill, the Unbelievable? podcast delves into this emotionally charged issue. Unlike in countries such as the USA, Canada, and the Netherlands, assisted dying remains illegal in the UK—but that could soon change. Labour MP Kim Leadbeater's Private Member's Bill has reignited discussions on autonomy, ethics, and the role of palliative care in end-of-life decisions. This episode brings together two leading voices, Professor Keith Brown and Neil McKain, to explore the implications of this contentious proposal.

  • The Divine Debate: Is Morality Rooted in God? Atheist Stephen Law vs Matthew Su hosted by Ruth Jackson
    Nov 15 2024
    🌟 Is faith necessary for a moral life? 🌟 Is belief in God essential for a meaningful moral framework? Or can secular philosophy give us all the answers? 🤔 This week on Unbelievable?, host Ruth Jackson 🎙️ welcomes two dynamic thinkers to explore one of the most profound debates: the role of God in shaping our moral universe. 🌌✨ Recorded live at Waddesdon School, UK with Aylesbury Vale Youth for Christ, this episode promises to challenge everything you thought you knew about faith and philosophy. 🙌 👤 British philosopher at Oxford University, Stephen Law, creator of the famous "Evil God Challenge," isn’t afraid to question the existence of a benevolent deity in a world full of suffering. Is God really all-good, or could an “evil god” be just as plausible? 😱💡 👤 Joining him is Christian scholar from Cambridge University, Matthew Su, whose perspective celebrates life as a gift from a loving creator. For Matthew, God not only grounds morality but gives life ultimate meaning and purpose. 🌱💖 🔥 This episode tackles the biggest questions: Why would a good God allow suffering? Is morality possible without divine authority? And can secular ethics truly guide humanity? 🧠💬 🎧 Don’t miss this clash of worldviews, where belief meets scepticism. Get ready to have your beliefs challenged! 💥👇 #UnbelievablePodcast #GodVsMorality #FaithAndPhilosophy #Debate Additional shows to watch The Good God vs. Evil God Debate: Max Baker-Hytch vs Asha Lancaster-Thomas host Vince Vitale : watch here / https://youtu.be/LXY9DJlP5Gs?si=l-JXMB8InPhaUnz_ #debate #evilgodchallenge #philosophy #philosophyofreligion #theism #atheism #evil #goodgod 👉 Get bonus content, updates, fascinating articles, and early access to new episodes—absolutely free!

  • Unbelievable? Classic: Peter Kreeft's argument from desire
    Nov 12 2024
    CS Lewis said "If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy, the only logical explanation is that I was made for another world." Peter Kreeft is a philosophy professor and well known Christian thinker and writer. He defends the "argument from desire". Does our experience of transcendent longing indicate that there is a God to satisfy it? Atheist philosopher Richard Norman says that the argument amounts to wish-fulfillment. They both sat down to discuss this issue, first broadcast in 2013.

  • Should Christians vote for Trump?
    Nov 1 2024
    In a nation divided and a pivotal election on the horizon, how should Christians engage with politics? 🤔 How much should our faith influence our public life? What’s truly at stake when we step into the political arena? As we approach the U.S. elections, the spotlight is on debates and appearances from figures like Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. Here’s the kicker: many Christians are grappling with how to reconcile Trump’s controversial past—marked by scandals and a self-serving attitude—with the moral values they hold dear. What are conservative Christians really seeking when it comes time to cast their votes? Can Christians genuinely justify voting for Trump? Join Roger Bolton as he dives into this contentious issue, exploring the complex intersection of faith and politics with New York Times bestselling author and Trump supporter Eric Metaxas.
