Why This Universe?

The universe we live in explained as best we know with no blather. So refreshing compared to silly style so prevalent.

Admittedly my rating is based on listening to only one episode, but it was literally the episode attempting to answer the question in the show’s title! The mental gymnastics the guest displayed in an effort to pretend there was no such thing as God or theology was kind of fascinating. Essentially, he would rather say there’s no possible answer to the question (it’s just a brute fact?) than to grant the possible existence of a personal God with a creative will. I laughed out loud. Atheists never disappoint in hiding their intellectual blindness as mere arrogance. I get it, their academic culture forbids any mention of theology (and only an occasional, gratuitous mention of philosophy), but to claim there could be infinite universes that we will never see (the common multiverse theory) rather than just admitting the far simpler idea that maybe God exists is just silly.

Love the content and guests you get on this podcast. Dan and Shalma are clearly brilliant. My only feedback would be that Dan comes off as if he is bored or doesn’t want to be doing this…

The show is absolutely great however I have to skip all the parts where sharma speaks. The mouth noises are unbearable. There is software to fix that. They should invest
