Faith and Philosophy, Part 3: God's Existence

Episode Topic: God's Existence

Many philosophers - and even theologians - believe that Immanuel Kant put an end to all attempts to prove God's existence. However, is the case truly closed? Dr. Sebastian Ostritsch, from Heidelberg University, argues that Kant's objections against proving God's existence have no decisive weight against the foundational logic of Thomas Aquinas' Five Ways. Even after Kant, he will contend, it remains possible to demonstrate that God exists.
