Podcast appearances and mentions of Guillermo Gonzalez

Greg answers questions about what Revelation 21:8 means when it says the cowardly will be judged, gardening someone who isn't open to the truth, officiating the wedding of people remarrying each other, other life in the universe, and the rapture.   Topics: Given that Revelation 21:8 says the cowardly will be judged, what dangers are we required to face courageously or be judged? (03:00) How do I garden somebody who doesn't seem open to the truth? (15:00) What would you say while officiating the wedding of two people who divorced, reconciled, and are remarrying? (29:00) Do you think the universe is ever-expanding, and do you think there are other life forms out there that aren't described in the biblical narrative? (35:00) When it comes to your view on the rapture, what do you do with the language of 1 Thessalonians 4:17 when it talks about being “caught up”? (46:00) Mentioned on the Show:  The Privileged Planet: How Our Place in the Cosmos Is Designed for Discovery by Guillermo Gonzalez and Jay W. Richards Related Links: The Rap on the Rapture by Greg Koukl

Greg talks to callers about the rebellion of angels in Genesis 6, how to respond to a naturalism-of-the-gaps argument, how to use Shedd's Dogmatics, whether an abandoned spouse can remarry, and whether human beings are responsible for the salvation of others.   Topics: What is your view on the rebellion of the angels referred to in Genesis 6, Jude, and 2 Peter? (01:00) What would you say to someone who responded to an argument for intelligent design by saying, “We just need to wait for science to give us the answer”? (11:00) I purchased Shedd's Dogmatics. Can you tell me how to use it? (29:00) My husband left me. Does that mean I can never get remarried? (38:00) Am I right in challenging the idea that God would give human beings the responsibility for other people's salvation?

On this ID the Future out of the vault, host and geologist Casey Luskin continues his conversation with astrobiologist Guillermo Gonzalez about the many ways Earth's place in the cosmos is finely tuned for life. In this second half of their conversation, Gonzalez zooms out to discuss the galactic habitable zone and the cosmic habitable age. Luskin says that the combination of exquisite cosmic and local fine tuning strongly suggests intelligent design, but he asks Gonzalez whether he thinks these telltale clues favor theism over deism? That is, does any of the evidence suggest a cosmic designer who is more than just the clock maker God of the deists who, in the words of Stephen Dedalus, “remains within or behind Read More › Source

On today's ID the Future out of the archive, astrobiologist Guillermo Gonzalez, co-author of The Privileged Planet, begins a two-part conversation with host Casey Luskin by providing a rapid survey of some of the growing evidence that Earth is finely tuned in numerous ways to allow for life. He draws a helpful distinction between local fine tuning and universal fine tuning. And he tells us about the many extra-solar planets astronomers have discovered in recent years and how all that new data continues to undermine the misguided assumption (encouraged by the misnamed “Copernican Principle”) that Earth is just a humdrum planet. Far from it, Gonzalez argues. This is Part 1 of a two-part conversation. Source

What is wrong with the standard evolutionary story of human origins? On today's ID the Future from the archive, host Eric Anderson begins a two-part conversation with geologist Dr. Casey Luskin to discuss why evolutionary models of paleo-anthropology, genetics, and evolutionary psychology fail to account for human origins. Dr. Luskin contributed a chapter on the topic in the 2023 book Science and Faith in Dialogue, which also features chapters from Stephen Meyer, Guillermo Gonzalez, James Tour, Marcos Eberlin, and others. In Part 1, Luskin describes his experiences in South Africa while earning a PhD in Geology from the University of Johannesburg. During his time there, Luskin had many opportunities to study various hominid fossils. Here he explains why he is Read More › Source

Why is the fine-tuning argument so extraordinary, and how have recent scientific discoveries made it even clearer that the universe points to a divine Creator?This week, Dr. Jay Richards joins Frank to discuss the 20th anniversary edition of 'The Privileged Planet: How Our Place in the Cosmos Is Designed for Discovery', the groundbreaking book he co-authored with Dr. Guillermo Gonzalez. Together, they explore the updated book and the remarkable new scientific discoveries that continue to affirm its hypothesis. During their conversation, they'll address:How and why did Guillermo's career suffer when the book was first released in 2004?What updates have been made to the 20th anniversary edition?What is the likelihood that life exists on other planets?How is materialism a self-defeating worldview?What is the cosmological constant and what type of precision is required in order for a planet to be able to sustain life?How probable is a multiverse?What's so special about "perfect" solar eclipses?What are the most common atheist objections to fine-tuning and our privileged position in the Universe?If you're looking for a good stocking stuffer this Christmas, grab the 20th Anniversary Edition of 'The Privileged Planet', a book and documentary film that continues to stand the test of time and compels readers to acknowledge how the complexity and fine-tuning of the universe couldn't possibly be the result of a cosmic accident.Resources mentioned during the episode:The Privileged Planet Website: https://privilegedplanet.com/The Privileged Planet 20th Anniversary Book: https://www.discovery.org/b/privileged-planet/The Privileged Planet Video on Demand: https://go2rpi.com/privileged-planet-vod/Follow Dr. Jay Richards on X: https://x.com/DrJayRichards

20 years ago, Jay Richards and Guillermo Gonzalez released a provocative book: "The Privileged Planet." They argued that Earth is not an insignificant blip on the universe's radar. Rather, there is a staggering array of scientific evidence that our location is the cosmos is the result of design. In this video, I talk with Dr. Jay Richards about how the evidence for our privileged status has grown over the past 20 years.

On this episode of ID The Future, host Andrew McDiarmid reads an exclusive excerpt from the newly revised, rewritten, and updated twentieth anniversary edition of The Privileged Planet. In 2004, astronomer Dr. Guillermo Gonzalez and author Dr. Jay Richards issued a daring hypothesis: that a pattern exists between the requirements for advanced life in the universe and the requirements for fruitful scientific discovery. They argued that this pattern was more conspiracy than coincidence. Now, twenty years later, a new edition of The Privileged Planet brings fresh analysis, new supporting evidence, and a completely revised text. In this episode, McDiarmid reads the Foreword to the 2024 Edition and the Introduction to the book. Source

Kaitlin Armstrong has been sentenced to 90 years in prison and fined $10,000 for the first-degree murder of professional cyclist Anna Moriah "Mo" Wilson. After deliberating for several hours following Armstrong's guilty verdict, the jury reached this decision.*    The courtroom was filled with tension and emotion as Kaitlin Armstrong received her sentence for the murder of Anna Moriah 'Mo' Wilson. The jury's decision, which came a day after finding her guilty of first-degree murder, carries a 90-year prison term and a significant financial penalty.    Anna Moriah Wilson, a promising gravel racer, was discovered with multiple gunshot wounds at a friend's home in Austin, Texas, on May 11, 2022, in what appeared to be a targeted homicide. Her tragic death shocked the community, leading to a lengthy trial that culminated in Armstrong's sentencing.    Prosecutors urged the jury to consider the calculated nature of the murder and Armstrong's attempt to evade justice, along with the profound impact of Wilson's murder on her family and friend, Caitlin Cash, who found Wilson injured in her home.    State attorney Guillermo Gonzalez asked the jurors to start with a minimum sentence of 40 years in prison, stating, "The fact that this was a calculated crime and the defendant's attempt to flee should be taken into account in the sentencing decision."    During the two-day sentencing hearing, the court heard poignant testimonies from members of Wilson's grief-stricken family. Her mother, Karen Wilson, described her daughter as "a unique person who accomplished a lifetime of achievements in 25 years." Her brother, Matthew Wilson, expressed the pain of losing his "closest confidant."    The defense presented witnesses, including Armstrong's father and sister, but did not make a specific recommendation for the sentence. Armstrong's father, Mike Armstrong, expressed condolences to the Wilson family, acknowledging the severity of their loss.    Throughout the weeks-long trial, prosecutors presented a compelling case against Armstrong, including video, cellphone, ballistic, and DNA evidence. They asserted that Armstrong had access to her then-boyfriend's communications with Wilson and could track Wilson's location through a fitness app. A DNA expert testified that there was "very strong support" for the presence of Armstrong's DNA on Wilson's bicycle.    Furthermore, prosecutors presented evidence indicating that Armstrong's vehicle was seen near the scene of the crime on the night of the homicide, and that her firearm was used in the murder.    Rick Jones, a Travis County prosecutor, emphasized that only Kaitlin Armstrong fit the facts presented in the case. However, the defense argued that Armstrong was "trapped in a nightmare of circumstantial evidence" and criticized the police for not investigating other potential suspects.    Armstrong, who had pleaded not guilty, did not testify in her own defense during the trial.    Following her police interview about Wilson's murder, Armstrong sold her Jeep and fled to Costa Rica. She evaded authorities for 43 days before being arrested at a hostel on Santa Teresa Beach in Provincia de Puntarenas. Prosecutors revealed that just days before her arrest, Armstrong spent a substantial sum on plastic surgery.    In addition to the murder charge, Armstrong faced accusations of attempting to escape custody before the trial began. She was charged with escape causing bodily injury, a felony, after briefly evading corrections officers during transport to a medical appointment.    Kaitlin Armstrong's sentencing marks the end of a high-profile case that has captivated the public's attention and left a community grappling with the loss of a talented cyclist and the consequences of a devastating crime.

They asserted that Armstrong had access to her then-boyfriend's communications with Wilson and could track Wilson's location through a fitness app. A DNA expert testified that there was "very strong support" for the presence of Armstrong's DNA on Wilson's bicycle.    Furthermore, prosecutors presented evidence indicating that Armstrong's vehicle was seen near the scene of the crime on the night of the homicide, and that her firearm was used in the murder.    Rick Jones, a Travis County prosecutor, emphasized that only Kaitlin Armstrong fit the facts presented in the case. However, the defense argued that Armstrong was "trapped in a nightmare of circumstantial evidence" and criticized the police for not investigating other potential suspects.    Armstrong, who had pleaded not guilty, did not testify in her own defense during the trial.    Following her police interview about Wilson's murder, Armstrong sold her Jeep and fled to Costa Rica. She evaded authorities for 43 days before being arrested at a hostel on Santa Teresa Beach in Provincia de Puntarenas. Prosecutors revealed that just days before her arrest, Armstrong spent a substantial sum on plastic surgery.    In addition to the murder charge, Armstrong faced accusations of attempting to escape custody before the trial began. She was charged with escape causing bodily injury, a felony, after briefly evading corrections officers during transport to a medical appointment.    Kaitlin Armstrong's sentencing marks the end of a high-profile case that has captivated the public's attention and left a community grappling with the loss of a talented cyclist and the consequences of a devastating crime.

Kaitlin Armstrong has been sentenced to 90 years in prison and fined $10,000 for the first-degree murder of professional cyclist Anna Moriah "Mo" Wilson. After deliberating for several hours following Armstrong's guilty verdict, the jury reached this decision.*    The courtroom was filled with tension and emotion as Kaitlin Armstrong received her sentence for the murder of Anna Moriah 'Mo' Wilson. The jury's decision, which came a day after finding her guilty of first-degree murder, carries a 90-year prison term and a significant financial penalty.    Anna Moriah Wilson, a promising gravel racer, was discovered with multiple gunshot wounds at a friend's home in Austin, Texas, on May 11, 2022, in what appeared to be a targeted homicide. Her tragic death shocked the community, leading to a lengthy trial that culminated in Armstrong's sentencing.    Prosecutors urged the jury to consider the calculated nature of the murder and Armstrong's attempt to evade justice, along with the profound impact of Wilson's murder on her family and friend, Caitlin Cash, who found Wilson injured in her home.    State attorney Guillermo Gonzalez asked the jurors to start with a minimum sentence of 40 years in prison, stating, "The fact that this was a calculated crime and the defendant's attempt to flee should be taken into account in the sentencing decision."    During the two-day sentencing hearing, the court heard poignant testimonies from members of Wilson's grief-stricken family. Her mother, Karen Wilson, described her daughter as "a unique person who accomplished a lifetime of achievements in 25 years." Her brother, Matthew Wilson, expressed the pain of losing his "closest confidant."    The defense presented witnesses, including Armstrong's father and sister, but did not make a specific recommendation for the sentence. Armstrong's father, Mike Armstrong, expressed condolences to the Wilson family, acknowledging the severity of their loss.    Throughout the weeks-long trial, prosecutors presented a compelling case against Armstrong, including video, cellphone, ballistic, and DNA evidence.

This is the grand finale of season 5! That's why this episode of Current Topics in Science has 5 in-person interviews! Dr. Stephen Meyer, Dr. Guillermo Gonzalez, Dr. Casey Luskin, Dr. Brian Miller, and Dr. Bijan Nemati all answer the question: "What is the best evidence for Intelligent Design from your field?" These answers are great to put to memory for when you dialogue with skeptics of ID or people who are curious about learning more. Now's the time to know how to defend the scientific theory of Intelligent Design and these 5 brand new interviews will help you do just that.idthefuture

On this ID the Future host and geologist Casey Luskin continues his conversation with astrobiologist Guillermo Gonzalez about the many ways Earth's place in the cosmos is fine tuned for life. In this second half of their conversation, Gonzalez zooms out to discuss the galactic habitable zone and the cosmic habitable age. Luskin says that the combination of exquisite cosmic and local fine tuning strongly suggests intelligent design, but he asks Gonzalez whether he thinks these telltale clues favor theism over deism? That is, does any of the evidence suggest a cosmic designer who is more than just the clockmaker God of the deists who, in the words of Stephen Dedalus, “remains within or behind or beyond or above his Read More › Source

On today's ID the Future, astrobiologist Guillermo Gonzalez, co-author of The Privileged Planet, provides a rapid survey of some of the growing evidence that Earth is finely tuned in numerous ways to allow for life. He draws a helpful distinction between local fine tuning and universal fine tuning. And he tells us about the many extra-solar planets astronomers have discovered in recent years and how all that new data continues to undermine the misguided assumption (encouraged by the misnamed “Copernican Principle”) that Earth is just a humdrum planet. Far from it, Gonzalez argues. The conversation is occasioned by Gonzalez's essay in a newly released anthology, Science and Faith in Dialogue. Source

Today's ID the Future spotlights a new free online ID book from South Africa, Science and Faith in Dialogue, with contributions from Stephen Meyer, Hugh Ross, Guillermo Gonzalez, James Tour, Fazale Rana, Marcos Eberlin, and others. Geologist Casey Luskin joins host Eric Anderson to tell how the new peer-reviewed book came together and to describe the chapter he contributed, “Evolutionary Models of Palaeoanthropology, Genetics, and Psychology Fail to Account for Human Origins: A Review.” Luskin did his PhD in South Africa and had many opportunities to study various hominid fossils. Here he explains why he is convinced that intelligent design far better explains the fossil evidence than does Darwinian evolution. Source

On today's ID the Future geologist Casey Luskin explains how Earth contains many intricate geological processes required for life. He argues that, taken together, this points to intelligent design rather than dumb luck. This episode is the first half of a talk Dr. Luskin presented at the 2022 Dallas Conference on Science and Faith. Stay tuned for Pt. 2 and a Q&A with his original audience. Source

This week on The Reel Down Dan and guest host Keith Lamberth talk with the top three finishers from the Hobie B.O.S. on the Fox and Wolf Rivers; Calvin Dee, Kristine Fischer and Guillermo Gonzalez.

Today's ID the Future continues intelligent design theorist Casey Luskin's conversation with Apologetics 315 podcast hosts Brian Auten and Chad Gross. Here in Part 2, Luskin give a peek behind the scenes of ID 3.0, the current research program inspired by the intelligent design framework. Luskin is then asked to explain his reservations about theistic evolution, and Luskin points out the evidential, rhetorical, and logical problems he sees with the brand of theistic evolution advocated by Francis Collins and Biologos. What about the future of the intelligent design movement? Luskin says he's optimistic, both because of the exciting research and publication breakthroughs of late, and because of the many converts he's seeing to the ID framework. According to Luskin, many of these Read More › Source

On this ID the Future, host Andrew McDiarmid sits down with historian and philosopher of science Michael Keas to discuss a recent article at Times Higher Education, “My Precious! How Academia's Gollums Guard Their Research Fields.” The article looks at how scientific progress is being impeded by a culture in which scientists jealously guard their research instead of sharing it. Keas says the problem seems to have gotten worse in recent years but isn't a new one. He illustrates with the story of Tycho Brahe and Johannes Kepler. Brahe, a sixteenth-century Danish astronomer, sat on his astronomical research for years, rather than sharing it with Johannes Kepler, his assistant. Kepler only got hold of it when Brahe died unexpectedly shortly Read More › Source

On this ID the Future from the vault, host Jay Richards and astronomer Guillermo Gonzalez, authors of The Privileged Planet: How Our Place in the Cosmos Is Designed for Discovery, discuss what's changed in the years since the book first appeared. One big change: the number of exo-planets discovered has exploded from 200 or so to several thousand. Gonzalez walks through this and other exciting recent advances in astronomy, and the two discuss how these new discoveries bear on the predictions and arguments they advanced in their book. Also in the discussion, Gonzalez speculates about what the James Webb space telescope may uncover after it comes online. Source
