A Worthy Excerpt

I didn't expect my attention to be held to the end when I started playing this video; it was really just for fun. I still believe that presuppositional apologetics best pierce at the heart of the postmodern thinker. But that doesn't make the blade of science any duller or less capable of anatomising propositions than it has proven to be. Clearly, unlike how one of the following speakers would contend, nothing happens by accident, not even the click of a mouse.

So here's a worthy excerpt - a small transcript I made of The God Delusion Debate between Richard Dawkins and John Lennox (haha one letter away from John Lennon).

(In response to Dawkin's assertion that 'Design is dead, otherwise one must explain who designed the Designer', and so believing in a Designer leads to an infinite regress.)

It's the old schoolboy question - Who created God? I'm actually very surprised to find it as a central argument in your book. Because it assumes that God is created. And I'm not surprised therefore that you call the book 'The God Delusion' because created gods are, by definition, a delusion.

I think the observation to be made is that scientists, more so than any other profession, cannot escape philosophy. Every tributary comes from the sky and ends up in the sea. Or you could say every tributary comes from the sea and ends up in the sky. Which is partially why I wrote this.
