Why Non-Overlapping Magisteria is WRONG!! | Matt Dillahunty & Eric S&S

Описание: Original Episode Here: https://youtube.com/live/FLgMjFnS7HE

Tom from Washington calls to discuss NOMA (Non-Overlapping Magisteria) - Stephen Jay Gould's concept that science deals with facts while religion deals with values, and the two shouldn't overlap. Tom argues that if God is supernatural, science can't investigate it, so why treat God's existence as a scientific question? Matt immediately dismisses NOMA as Gould being wrong about philosophy, arguing that science investigates anything detectable in reality regardless of whether it's labeled "natural" or "supernatural," and that religion hasn't demonstrated any expertise in any domain. The conversation gets heated when Matt catches Tom asserting the supernatural doesn't exist, then backtracking to admit he can't actually know that. Matt compares this to the burden of proof in criminal trials - failing to prove guilt doesn't prove innocence. Tom struggles to articulate his position clearly and keeps changing subjects when pressed, leading Matt to express frustration that they're going in circles. The call reveals the difficulty many atheists have in being precise about epistemological claims versus ontological ones.
