Welcome to the fifth episode of the Portugal Street Philosophy Podcast, the official podcast of the LSE Philosophy Society. In each episode, we take an important philosophical question and explore our best current attempts to answer it. For this episode, our question is “Are there any successful arguments for or against the existence of God?” and our guide to the topic is Professor Graham Oppy.
In this episode we discuss:
- What makes a successful argument?
- What makes an agent rational?
- Bounded, ideal and minimal rationality
- Why there aren’t any successful arguments for and against the existence of God
- The relationship between argument and theory
- Theories and theoretical virtues
- Trading-off simplicity and explanation
- The future of this debate
