Dr. Clark discusses cognitive science of religion, theory of mind, agency detecting devices, and materialist arguments against the existence of God. We consider religion as a natural phenomenon, the nature of rationality, and resisting the demand for evidence. Clark looks at intuition and inference, the God faculty, the relationship between naturalism and evolution, and the assertion that atheists have higher IQs than theists. Finally, we examine conformity bias, Google’s search engine and human minds, and brain science’s relationship to apologetics. Dr. Kelly James Clark is Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at Ibn Haldun University in Istanbul, Turkey.
