Is the universe necessary or contingent?

Is morality subjective or objective?

Is free will a choice or determined?

And is consciousness dependent on a physical base?

These things are disputed in philosophy, and yet time after time, theists, beginning with the conclusion,

God, pretend they are decided. If you think these things are decided, I disagree with you,

and I want you to convince me that your position is correct. Give me a call because the show is starting right now. Welcome everyone. Today's

November the 30th, 2025. I am your host Richard Julliver and joining me today is John the skeptic. Hello, John.

Hello, I'm here. This is, we were talking before the... I'm in the house. You are in the

house. Who's house? Is it Ken Ham's house? Is it Ken Ham's out house? We don't know. We were talking before the show, myself and John, and we have been, we've known each other

for a number of years. This is the first show we have ever hosted together.

I know. People want to keep us apart. I'm not sure why.

They lose today. Yeah, they lost. That's it.

Ha, ha, ha. I'm excited about this one. We are talking,

or we were talking in the opening about philosophy. So I want to clear a few things up,

just so people know what the philosophical terms I mentioned in the opening are because they

might be strange or unfamiliar to some people.

And I think it's important to define things.

John, are you familiar with the terms that I used in the cold opening?

I'm going to say yes, but don't ask me to explain it because I'm not good at that sort of thing.

And this is the thing.

We have these conversations and we have these phoning up all the time.
