| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Eric McTaxis show with your host, Eric Metaxus. |
| 0:17.6 | Folks, welcome to the Eric Metaxus show. |
| 0:20.3 | Many of you know that I recently came out with a book |
| 0:23.2 | called Is Atheism Dead, the first third of which deals with the inevitable conclusion, it seems to me at this point, |
| 0:33.1 | that science is pointing to God. It's astonishing, it's extraordinary, it's little known, which is why I wrote about it. |

| 1:35.4 | When I talk to Christians who seem to have a reasonable faith, they seem to – but they themselves have never heard of a lot of this. |
| 1:43.2 | So I was excited when I saw your book because you've more than just heard about it. |
