Episode 92 - Talking Cosmology with Phil Halper

Episode 41 – Show NotesIt is a delight for us to have a long chat with our friend ‘SkydivePhil’ - Phil Halper. He’s best known for his YouTube channel and has twice been on Unbelievable discussing cosmology and also, for his first appearance, animal suffering.  Phil is a vegetarian and sees how the issue of animal suffering is a much more powerful argument against theism than is generally realised.  It is that subject that we were keen to discuss, especially because Phil and some of his contacts have just published an important paper on the topic.  The paper is not so much philosophy/theology but focuses most on the science of animal pain and suffering, asking the question of the degree to which animals suffer as we do when they experience pain.  The conclusions from this are vast, but we stick in this episode to how it informs arguments against theism based on what we now know of animal suffering.
