The Judo Argument: Wrestling with Science and Faith

Shoaib Rahman

4.9/5 (25754 ratings)

Description:The relationship between science and religion has long been a lively debate and controversy. Both fields make claims about the nature of the universe and humanity's place within it, often leading partisans on either side to see them as incompatible or even contradictory. In this book, we will examine a particular form of argument put forward at times by religious adherents - the "judo argument" - which seeks to use the apparent strength of science against itself to demonstrate the necessity of God's existence. Specifically, this book analyzes several historical examples of such arguments made by philosophers and theologians, as presented and critiqued in an essay by the renowned scientist and author Isaac Asimov. Asimov was himself an atheist who did not find existing arguments for God's existence convincing. However, he analyzed these arguments thoughtfully and seriously, seeking to refute them using logic and critical thinking rather than dismissing them out of hand. In this spirit of honest rational inquiry, we will explore whether so-called "judo arguments" truly hit their mark or ultimately fall short. Along the way, we may shed light on the complex relationship between the scientific method and questions of faith, metaphysics, and meaning. Let us wrestle with the arguments openly and see where they lead.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
