The Reality of God
from Spiritual Deism: A Podcast for the Spiritually Independent · host Dr. Jay Forrest
In this episode, Jay Forrest argues for the reality of God understood not as a supreme being but as the Impersonal Rational Ground of Being, challenging atheism’s unevidenced denial by appealing to design, cosmology, natural laws, moral universality, and innate human intuition. Drawing on process philosophy, Aristotle, and thinkers such as Dawkins, Hawking, Flew, Darwin, and Einstein, he frames God’s necessity through rational argument and the ancient, cross‑cultural presence of the Golden Rule, urging listeners to look beyond identity‑bound skepticism and keep an open mind.
