If P Then Q - Why Philosophy Can...

Russell Hasan

This short paper on logic argues that logic and science can go hand in hand, and that, by taking observations of perceptions and sensations, and applying logical analysis to them, you have the power to build conceptual models and frameworks that you can use in order to predict what you should do in the future and to reason how to solve the problems in your life. Examples from hard science, and examples of the use of science and logic in the courtroom to understand legal arguments, are presented, as well examples of how to figure out the answers to the mundane ordinary problems that we humans have in our lives. 
Mandatory must-read for anyone who wants to think and live using logic.

Beyond Evolution - How New...

Dr. Sy Garte

Is it possible that one of the biggest obstacles to harmonizing science and faith can finally be overcome? Respected biologist and former atheist Sy Garte says the answer is yes. A flash point for much of the science vs. faith divide has been Darwinian evolution. Sharing the same mistaken belief that science contradicts the Bible, especially the Genesis account of creation, many scientists and many Christians have concluded that the worlds of science and religion are at odds. But according to biologist Sy Garte, PhD, evolution is irrelevant to the harmony of faith and science. And revolutionary new developments in biology are providing stronger evidence than ever before of a purposeful creator God. In his new book, Dr. Garte combines the latest research with a biblical worldview as he explains: how scientific progress has been hindered by the reluctance of many biologists to follow the evidence wherever it leads because of their fear of opening the door to theism why misunderstandings about both the Bible and science have caused many people to unnecessarily abandon Christianity why evolution by natural selection isn’t as important to science as many people think―and why it matters how new evidence of purpose, agency and decision-making at the cellular level points to a creator God how a reductionist, purely materialistic view of life ignores new advances in science In Beyond Evolution, Sy Garte challenges both scientists and people of faith to follow the evidence wherever it leads―and argues powerfully for why that evidence warrants a belief in God.
