We'll be covering each of these thinkers in more depth later in their own individual videos, so if you're interested and want to learn more you can look forward to those.

That's a bit gross to say science and faith are divorced. Many of the greats that built science proper, as we recognize it today, were deeply religious men. There is no aspect of man that is devoid of faith, for faith is merely part of the human condition, and Waterfield would do well to remember that. Humans cannot function without presuppositions, and what are presuppositions if not articles of faith?
