God vs Science Debate with Peter Atkins and Keith Fox
Summary
Ruth Jackson returned to school to host this lively debate between Peter Atkins, renowned atheist and scientist, and Keith Fox, Christian biologist and theologian. In front of a live young audience, they explore one of the most profound questions: Is religion, just wishful thinking? Atkins and Fox tackle the big questions at the intersection of science, faith, and ethics, including: Are we just matter? Can science explain everything, or are there questions beyond its scope? Will further advancements in technology—like space exploration, genetic modification, and AI override any need or belief in God? From the accusation of "playing God" in genetic engineering to the nature of consciousness in artificial intelligence, this conversation challenges assumptions about what it means to be human and the role of faith in a scientific world.
👉 Don’t miss this debate that examines science's limits, religion's relevance, and humanity’s quest for meaning.
Key Topics: Is science inherently at odds with belief in God? The ethical implications of genetic modification and the "playing God" debate. Can AI ever achieve personhood, and what does this mean for our understanding of humanity? The role of space exploration in shaping worldviews and beliefs. Tune in for a fascinating clash of ideas and perspectives that will leave you questioning the nature of faith, science, and human purpose.
