Listen "Can We Think More Effectively?"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of This Integrated Life, we dive deep into the scope and limits of scientific inquiry. Join Dr. Barrett and Ana Avila as they explore why science excels at describing and explaining the world but falls short in guiding our actions and values. Dr. Barrett challenges the notion that science is the sole path to knowledge by highlighting the role of historical evidence, mathematics, and philosophical reasoning.
Dr. Barrett discusses the theological and philosophical foundations that undergird scientific practice, emphasizing the importance of pre-scientific assumptions such as the trust in human cognition and the belief in a stable, orderly universe. He argues that science, rooted in a Judeo-Christian context, relies on these foundational beliefs to thrive.
Join us for an insightful conversation about the integration of science, theology, and philosophy, and learn how these perspectives can coexist and enrich our understanding of the world.
