#001: The Real Atheologists
Manage episode 220704766 series 2448291
In this, the debut episode of A Leap of Doubt, I interview Justin Schieber and Benjamin Watkins, hosts of Real Atheology: A Philosophy of Religion Podcast. Topics of this discussion include: what philosophy of religion is, why it continues to be relevant in academic philosophical discourse, how to define religion, the nature of belief and deconversion, what led to Justin's and Ben's own respective departure from theistic belief, and why arguments from revelation are insufficient yet still necessary to take into consideration.
