#91 Debate: Does Objective Morality Require God? | Benjamin Blake Speed Watkins vs. Joel Settecase

This is apologetics with Joel Settecase

You're about to see the Transcendental Argument for God in action when atheism and Christianity collide. In this compelling episode of the Worldview Legacy podcast, Joel Settecase steps into the hot seat on the "Real Atheology, a Philosophy of Religion Podcast," hosted by Benjamin Blake Speed Watkins. The conversation centers around one of the most profound questions in moral philosophy: Does Objective Morality Require God? Join Joel and Ben as they engage in a rigorous and respectful dialogue, exploring their contrasting views on the nature of morality and meta-ethics. Ben presents his case for ethical non-naturalism, arguing that objective moral values can exist independently of God. Joel counters by grounding moral truths in the very nature of God, asserting that without a divine being, objective morality lacks a coherent foundation. Key Topics Covered: The distinction between moral values and moral obligations. Ethical non-naturalism vs. theistic moral realism. The relationship between general and special revelation in understanding morality. The coherence (or incoherence) of abstract moral propositions without a divine mind. Joel's challenge to atheism and the implications of God's necessary existence for morality and knowledge. The episode concludes with a thought-provoking challenge from Joel, inviting listeners to consider the Christian worldview and its robust answers to the moral questions that shape our lives.

Dr. Edward Feser joins us to discuss Catholicism, God, and Science. In the first segment, he gives insight into what led him to Catholicism. Next, he interacts with Simon Blackburn's critique of his book Five Proofs of the Existence of God and answers an objection raised by the hosts of the Real Atheology podcast. Lastly, he provides a detailed overview of what to expect in his forthcoming book Aristotle's Revenge. The Classical Theism Podcast aims to defend Catholic Christian ideas in conversation. With the help of various guests, I defend three pillars of the Catholic Christian worldview: (1) the God of classical theism exists, (2) Jesus is our Messiah and Lord, and (3) He founded the Catholic Church. We place a strong emphasis on the first pillar, defending classical theism, drawing upon the work of Thomistic philosopher Dr. Edward Feser and many others.   John DeRosa www.classicaltheism.com/contact

For this episode of Real Atheology, Justin Schieber and Ben Watkins interview philosopher Wes Morriston. Dr. Morriston earned his PhD in philosophy from Northwestern University in 1972 and was a professor of philosophy at University of Colorado, Boulder from 1972-2014 when he retired as Emeritus Professor of Philosophy. Prof Morriston specialized in philosophy of religion. In the interview we discuss a variety of topics including a supposed tension that exists between a belief in what is often assumed to be the great value of free will on the one hand and the belief in God’s essential goodness on the other. We also discuss the moral argument - at least the form advocated by Christian philosopher William Lane Craig. We want to again thank Professor Morriston for the fantastic discussion.
