Summary
Is Christianity a kind of childish religion of wish fulfillment? Santa Claus for adults? The equivalent of the flying spaghetti monster…well, today we are going to try and determine whether or not it is reasonable to believe in Christianity. To do that, we are going to focus on some of the fundamental questions surrounding the logical, philosophical, moral, and scientific implications of Christianity.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to making the argument. And today we're going to be asking the question, |
| 0:04.1 | is Christianity reasonable, or rather is believing in Christianity reasonable? Because there's |
| 0:09.5 | a lot of people to think that this is essentially Santa Claus for adults, right? It's wish |
| 0:14.4 | fulfillment. It's a way to try to, I don't know, guard yourself against the parts of reality |
| 0:19.1 | you're not very comfortable with. |
| 0:27.2 | And so oftentimes it gets mocked or it gets criticized as, again, just being relatively childish. |
| 0:32.1 | But what we're going to do today is we're going to actually talk about the moral implications. We're going to talk about the scientific implications. |
| 0:34.4 | We'll talk about just the concept of objective truth and whether or not |
| 0:38.1 | Christianity has anything to do with any of these concepts. And probably another important question |

| 0:58.1 | is again, for this episode, |
| 0:59.6 | we are all back in the studio. |
| 1:01.0 | Mr. Nick Fratis is back from Richmond, |
| 1:03.1 | and that's pretty awesome. |
| 1:04.4 | But we have a great episode today, |
| 1:05.6 | and it's one that I'm really excited to talk about because it's something we've been planning to do for quite a while, and I think we've wanted to do some planning for it and do it justice |
