WOF 400: Three Paths Beyond Scientism

BISHOP ROBERT BARRON
About this episode

Today we share with you Bishop Barron's keynote talk from the 2023 Wonder Conference, hosted by Word on Fire.

His keynote addressed scientism, the view that authentic truth claims can be made only in regard to those matters treatable through the scientific method, and offered three paths of scape: the intelligibility of the world, the immateriality of the mind, and the inescapability of metaphysics.
