Jon Perry - Genetics & Evolution Stated Casually | FULL DEBATE: Can Science Study God? @StatedCasually | Uploaded 4 years ago | Updated 1 day ago
Things get a bit heated as Rob Stadler and Jon Perry discuss whether or not science can study god, gods, and the supernatural. Rob asks what would happen if, when traveling through the wilderness, we were to find a mysterious perpetual motion machine. Would science be able to explain it? He presents a paper claiming that it seems the origin of life is not possible on Earth.
Jon goes over the competing research programs concept of science proposed by Imre Lakatos. He uses the act of solving a jigsaw puzzle to explain how the process works and shows how competing research programs helped us eventually learn to deal with the black plague.
