In this episode we bring you a talk Ross Douthat delivered at the Society of Catholic Scientists' 2025 Annual Conference. In the talk, Douthat discusses his latest book, Believe: Why Everyone Should Be Religious (Zondervan), and the arguments for why our experience of reality is more parsimoniously explained from a theist perspective than from an atheistic or materialistic perspective. He discusses the cultural moment we find ourselves in, one in which many people, particularly young people, are open to exploring religious belief. Enjoy.
