It is possible that some of my beliefs are not true 15:45 2. We all share the same reality and only interpret it differently. 18:49 Check in for more time, invite a question 19:54 6. Strong belief, even without action, can change external reality. 21:46 how would you define external world? 28:23 how are we conceptualizing the truth? 31:44 Is it possible to be mistaken? 34:34 Why bother looking for the truth? 38:07 3. Truth depends on the opinions and beliefs of people. 38:45 5. Something is true if everyone agrees. 40:55 You can't be wrong about anything you think? 44:44 Were there Dinosaurs? 45:42 Ending on good terms 47:34 Outro The goal of SE is not necessarily to change a belief, but to exercise and explore good reasoning for how we know what we know. Is it possible to resolve differences of belief without debate? Are we open minded to the idea that we are close minded? What would it take to change our minds? I am an amateur philosopher. I can be wrong about my beliefs and would be happy to discover that I am. I encourage my viewers to consider this approach the next time we misunderstand or disagree with someone. Please consider multiple examples of this Conversation style before making a final judgment about it.

Watch video here: https://youtu.be/eXTAKC9LW5c I have the utmost respect for both this man and his wife. Should she ever one day stumble across this video series, I hope she does not feel that she was blindsided, that we were making fun of her, or anything disrespectful like that. In my view, these interactions was far too valuable to not share publicly. I hope they both feel the same way.

Perhaps we both felt the implications of what it was that we were discussing, recording, and perhaps eventually, releasing. I have the utmost respect for both this man and his wife. Should she ever one day stumble across this video series, I hope she does not feel that she was blindsided, that we were making fun of her, or anything disrespectful like that. In my view, these interactions was far too valuable to not share publicly. I hope they both feel the same way.

Ep 441: Feedback | Anthony Magnabosco | Creationist Teaches Our Kids (1) (Preparation)
00:23:18
Summary: A retired dad now anthropology student shares his efforts to reach his well-intentioned wife who is homeschooling their kids using Young Earth Creationist curricula. Watch video here: https://youtu.be/NMBiD1eCPGY I have the utmost respect for both this man and his wife. Should she ever one day stumble across this video series, I hope she does not feel that she was blindsided, that we were making fun of her, or anything disrespectful like that. In my view, the value of these interactions was far to valuable and warranted pushing the envelope by sharing this discussion. I hope they both feel the same way. Perhaps we can return the favor by offering some guidance in the video comments below. prep·a·ra·tion /ˌprepəˈrāSH(ə)n/ noun 1. the action or process of making ready or being made ready for use or consideration. 2. something done to get ready for an event or undertaking.

Ep 440: Dialogue | Anthony Magnabosco | Apollos (3) | Boundaries (Tenacious Apologist Returns)
00:32:20
Summary: My tenacious interlocutor returns to discuss his lively Street Epistemology Discord server engagements that occurred in the interim. I do some more "messaging" than normal in this one, likely in response to them asking me questions. te·na·cious /təˈnāSHəs/ adjective 1. tending to keep a firm hold of something; clinging or adhering closely. 2. not readily relinquishing a position, principle, or course of action; determined. 3. persisting in existence; not easily dispelled. Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/HQWeRF0OBG4 Note: I found in interesting how "importance" of the claim was being viewed differently by both parties here. The students seem to be using it as "needed" while I seem to be viewing it as "fantastic." If only I had asked something like, "Are you saying that, the more necessary a claim is to a person, the more likely the attestations of others from a long time ago are true?", or something to that effect. IL2 at one point asks, "What happens to me?," as if that should be a factor in assessing the truth of a claim. I was later reminded about a discussion I had about differences in adjective meanings, like we might see with a word like "important" or "extraordinary". In their view, it seems, if a claim is "important" to them personally (like "Jesus rose from the dead," it's less likely someone would lie or be mistaken about the claim, and therefore you can accept what they stated as true to a high degree of confidence. Whereas from my perspective (and perhaps others who might be more skeptically-minded) we see "importance" as a biasing factor to control for; the more important or impactful one might find a claim to them personally is a reason to apply more—not less—scrutiny to the supporting reasons. Check out Pinecreek on YouTube and his more advanced "Flying Man" ( https://youtu.be/2ZNiCpeF_Jg?t=4789 ) example, which is further along than I was here with my off-the-cuff car metaphor in 2019. I'd like to see this idea of how we might be using adjectives differently explored further in future SE discussions.

I often investigate beliefs that do not match my own. 0:07:38 20. I am comfortable with saying: "I don't know". 0:09:07 21. It is beneficial to find out when I am wrong about something. 0:15:03 22. I will abandon a belief if I discover reliable information that falsifies it. 0:20:59 23. The more unusual the statement, the stronger the evidence needs to be. 0:26:49 24. It is possible that some of my beliefs are not true 0:30:49 1. A statement is true when it corresponds to reality. 0:35:40 2. We all share the same reality and only interpret it differently. 0:39:37 3. Truth depends on the opinions and beliefs of people. 0:44:09 4. People create words and define their meaning. 0:46:22 5. A statement is true if everyone agrees. 0:49:10 6. Strong belief, even without action, can change external reality. 0:54:26 8. Someone can be certain something is true yet still be mistaken. 0:55:53 9. A test that cannot identify a failure is a valid test. 0:56:50 9. We should be satisfied with a test that can only confirm our claim. 0:59:53 10. If all members of a society share a belief, they are justified to hold that belief. 1:02:37 11. Believing something that is false feels just like believing something that is true. 1:03:54 17. Someone is justified in their beliefs until they are proven wrong. 1:05:31 Resolution 1:07:15 Outro You can challenge yourself and a friend with the online survey: https://se-survey.web.app The goal of SE is not necessarily to change a belief, but to exercise and explore good reasoning for how we know what we know. Is it possible to resolve differences of belief without debate? Are we open minded to the idea that we are close minded? What would it take to change our minds? I am an amateur philosopher. I can be wrong about my beliefs and would be happy to discover that I am. I encourage my viewers to consider this approach the next time we misunderstand or disagree with someone. Please consider multiple examples of this Conversation style before making a final judgment about it.

Ep 422: Dialogue | Anthony Magnabosco | Caleb (2B) | Thresholds (Creationist Bridges The Gap)
00:37:37
Summary: After sharing a few emails to coordinate, Caleb and I agreed to meet to revisit his God belief and discuss our previous encounter. This is the second half of our second talk. Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/gPJsXjwhVSo While it took me some time to upload this second talk with Caleb (recorded December 2018), I'm glad I finally did. I think our second talk shows how much growth Caleb and I experienced over the years since our first encounter in 2014. Even as I watch this encounter today I can see improvements since this chat. This can be both exciting and frustrating, particularly when people may have only watched older examples, form a view on SE, and then miss out on the improvements we've developed over the years. In short, never stop watching SE videos—we're evolving rapidly! The banging noise from the metal flashing by the bridge as people passed frustrated me when this was being filmed (you should have a pretty good idea of how I am with background noise by now), but now I can see these random interruptions help call attention to the thresholds people have when it comes to the quality of their supporting reasons. Camera shakes (and in some cases, louder bangs) were added in post for added effect. Due to the length of this chat, I edited a few minutes of footage here and there, but nothing to alter anything significant.

Summary: After sharing a few emails to coordinate, Caleb and I agreed to meet at a location of his choice to revisit his God belief and discuss our previous encounter. This is the first half of our second talk. Watch video(Part 1 of 2) here: https://youtu.be/IXzCdauGc_8 While it took me some time to upload this second talk with Caleb (recorded December 2018), I'm glad I finally did. I think our second talk shows how much growth Caleb and I experienced over the years since our first encounter in 2014. Even as I watch this encounter today I can see improvements since this chat. This can be both exciting and frustrating, particularly when people may have only watched older examples, form a view on SE, and then miss out on the improvements we've developed over the years. In short, never stop watching SE videos—we're evolving rapidly! This idea of the "totality of the circumstances" (or in other words "there's just so many reasons for my belief that shaking a few reasons won't affect my overall confidence that the claim is true") is very common, albeit frustrating when you encounter it. If a reason serves to bolster one's confidence, the realization that a reason cannot be justified to one's own standard should have a corresponding impact if it is no longer a viable option in the mix.

Ep 415: Interview | Quinn Questions | Breakfast with Anthony
01:26:20
Summary: Yesterday I got the chance to speak with someone who I greatly admire... Mr. Street Epistemology himself... Anthony Magnabosco!!! I'd taken his jacket at a joint SE event a few days prior, and essentially leveraged that item of his in order to meet up with him for breakfast. Yep, just like a stalker. Besides a couple of would you rather questions I contrived in the car on my way down to meet him, we had an open ended conversation, mostly about SE. His videos have been sincerely impactful on my channel as well as my day to day conversations with people. I'm very grateful to have had the opportunity to sit and talk with him.

Ep 412: Dialogue | Anthony Magnabosco | Kevin | Inquisition (Agnostic Atheist Gets Cross)
00:26:16
Summary: Kevin is an inquisitive former Catholic who still wears a cross despite identifying as an agnostic atheist. We cover a variety of interesting topics including certainty, openness, free will, and aspects of morality. I'm half-jokingly sub-titling this an "inquisition" because of the rapid-fire questions and constant interruptions that permeate our talk. Kevin is a very bright and confident individual with good dialogue skills that will most likely improve quickly. Thank you, Kevin, for making me think over both of our talks. Can an open-minded person be sure there is no God? Can a person who's sure there's no God still be open-minded? in·qui·si·tion /ˌinkwiˈziSH(ə)n/ noun 1. a period of prolonged and intensive questioning or investigation.

Ep 410: Interview | JugglingLessons Discusses SE with Bob Swanson
01:19:40
Summary: Dali (JugglingLessons) interviews Bob Swanson, a science teacher who uses SE as a way to help teach critical thinking. During the episode, Bob shows a visual demonstration where he takes a glass of water, puts a plastic square on top of it, and then flips it over –– showing the plastic still holding onto the glass with water above it. Bob helps Dali explore why this happens as an example of his SE-style analysis, which helps Dali learn something new!

I'm clearing my SD card before I start filming next time. Though this video is cursed with AV errors, it was probably my favorite conversation so far. It was a lesson and challenge for me to not only understand his view, but to challenge a set of very well-articulated beliefs of which I mostly agree with. SE questions proved to be very useful in grounding an incredibly theoretical and semantical conversation rooted in epistemology. I'm loosely practicing a technique called Street Epistemology.

Ep 402: Dialogue | Anthony Magnabosco | Justin | Guidance (Atheists Need God to be Good)
00:28:22
Summary: Justin wonders if it's possible for people to act in a moral fashion without thinking that a God is real and what's really driving that "compelling force." Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/fxC0S4go3j8 guid·ance /ˈɡīdəns/ noun 1. advice or information aimed at resolving a problem or difficulty, especially as given by someone in authority. Three questions for Justin (and for you): "Why exactly do you think that you would be any different?" "How would I act any different if I didn't think God was real?" "Why would I want to be less moral than I am today?" Note: I didn't notice until editing (or I probably would've said something on camera after the interview) how some of the background action happened to enhance certain aspects of this talk. For example, the golf cart (car) as we discuss the challenges of communicating, the various religious symbols on Justin's jacket, the seemingly lost older couple who stroll into the shot, the green wagon with quiet wheels, the landscaper picking up the leaf and tossing it in the trash. As far as I can tell, it really did just happen to work out that way. Oh! There was one small thing I intentionally snuck into the background--let's see if anyone notices it. Note: If memory serves, the person with the bear was selling flowers or something (as it was Valentine's Day) and we had a brief chat about how she might sell more flowers if she walked around with the bear rather than stood next to it. If you look closely, it seems to help get people's attention.

Jake heard that SE is a script to get people to lose faith in their belief or get people to doubt themselves. SE is a modified version of the Socratic method, to examine why someone holds that belief, and has been used for beliefs other than God beliefs.

Ep 391: Dialogue | Anthony Magnabosco | Shane (4) Prioritization (Linchpin to My God Belief)
00:58:48
A "Pre-Methodological" Discussion Series | Part 4 of 4 Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/9ahfNpYbaTk Summary: After creating a pie chart of reasons for thinking his Christian worldview is objectively true into categories grouped by importance, Shane and I explore the attributes of his reasons and how they interrelate or possibly influence each other. Since all four of our talks cover important concepts that set the stage for exploring the quality of Shane's reasons and reliability of Shane's methods, I've dubbed this series "pre-method" or "pre-methodological" as a result. It's my hope that these four talks will resonate with practitioners of Street Epistemology and they can see the potential this line of questioning has when it comes to exploring deeply-held beliefs. I am hopeful a discussion like this will one day break through the noise and truly help people reconsider how they decide to interact with someone else's claims, reasons, and methods. Identifying the relationships and dependencies of our "categories of reasons" is a critical path people should routinely consider. Thanks to The Conru Foundation for supporting Street Epistemology International. Note: Despite my best efforts, I was unable to conduct a 5th chat with Shane. I realize this may frustrate some viewers, but felt it would still be valuable to release these four talks to the public. The primary purpose of my videos has always been to show others how to do Street Epistemology themselves. If Shane and I never cross paths again, it's my hope someone will continue engaging with him in a productive manner. Thank you for your understanding and time.

A "Pre-Methodological" Discussion Series | Part 3 of 4 Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/QSN_2Jo7bf4 Summary: Shane returns for a third chat where we explore alternate moral systems and the cost he would incur if he discovered his reasons for thinking Christianity are true were lacking. Since all four of our talks cover important concepts that set the stage for exploring the quality of Shane's reasons and reliability of Shane's methods, I've dubbed this series "pre-method" or "pre-methodological" as a result. It's my hope that these four talks will resonate with practitioners of Street Epistemology. Thanks to The Conru Foundation for supporting Street Epistemology International. Note: Despite my best efforts, I was unable to conduct a 5th chat with Shane. I realize this may frustrate some viewers, but felt it would still be valuable to release these four talks to the public. The primary purpose of my videos has always been to show others how to do Street Epistemology themselves. If Shane and I never cross paths again, it's my hope someone will continue engaging with him in a productive manner. Thank you for your understanding and time. mo·ral·i·ty /məˈralədē/ noun 1. a particular system of values and principles of conduct, especially one held by a specified person or society.

00:14:13
Summary: Payten is a self proclaimed Druid and believer in the Law of Attraction. Here is a snippet of some questions on why he believes the methods he applies to gaining knowledge are reliable. Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/DA5w8qzyicM Full video of talk here: https://youtu.be/pmK3LQ2b4vQ Recorded: 2 July 2020 Released: 3 July 2020 The Atheist Round Table was born from a group of like minded thinkers, who share views on humanity & the pursuit of knowledge. Austin & Mike, the Hosts of the Show, met through social media, along with Show Director PastaMike, Discord & Tech management Jeff, & Producer/co-host Steve. Although, all share atheist worldviews, they all come from completely different backgrounds & upbringings. The Show aims to delve into discussion about where one comes from, their pathway to religion or worldview, & what holds them to their beliefs? How do they believe in something we don’t? What separates us? We aim to have friendly, yet challenging discussions with theists & people who believe in the supernatural. We also encourage other atheists & skeptics to contact us to come on & discuss their point of view, too. Every supernatural claim is welcome at The Round Table.

Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/OOHf51GG568 I'm particularly curious about the effectiveness of the word "outgrow" here; at the risk of sounding condescending, a word like this seems like a potentially positive way to describe the loss of something.

Ep 373: Dialogue | Campfire Convos | Jean | Catholic Converts Versus Indoctrination

Link: https://discord.gg/eVX3MCe Twitter: @centratheist Email: se.convos@gmail.com Practicing Street Epistemology by "campfire". Some of the videos on this channel, including this one, illustrate "Collaborative Street Epistemology", where other SEers ask the questions to friends/family members via Discord. The interlocutor in this video is a family friend, Jean. She lives across the street and has been a good friend of the family for a number of years. For this Collaborative SE session, we had @SE After Dark (the Live session moderator) speak aloud during the down times so that she could communicate with the Discord audience the direction she wanted to see this conversation go. Then, the Discorders will typed their questions - which appear on the left side in this video, and the questions that she picked (based on relevance) will pop up on the right side of this video. Those are the questions that the Interviewer (me) asked Jean along the way. Before we started, Jean chose to not be shown on camera, so her face is blurred. I asked her if she wanted to participate only 24 hours prior to this talk, and she knew nothing of SE. I did, however, tell her that strangers on the internet would be asking her questions about deeply held beliefs! In the end, she enjoyed the talk and was happy to have done it. As a general rule, I leave conversations intact, so as to not be accused of cutting out some important part of the IL’s belief… however, I cut out some of this talk, with Jean’s approval. Perhaps one thing this session illustrates is an answer to the question “should SE always strive to gently challenge someone about their beliefs no matter what, or when there are times when people that are hanging onto deeply held beliefs mostly because it makes them feel better - should we back away so that the IL doesn’t risk being challenged too deeply on something that helps them get through their day or life?" I think this talk illustrates a time when it’s best to not let the Socratic method interfere with a belief that makes someone feel better in certain situations. SKIP TO 40:09 TO SEE HOW THIS PLAYS OUT AT THE END OF THIS TALK. Jean - Topic: A Convert has stronger faith/conviction than someone born into religion + 100% confidence that God exists. Timestamps for main topic changes (Add 35 seconds if listening to the podcast version of this talk): 3:33 Claim about Converts vs. Indoctrinations 20:47 Claim about God’s existence 40:09 answer to “the question” regarding whether SE should always gently challenge beliefs Respect: It's possible that my interlocutor will read the comments, so be respectful.

Ep 371: Dialogue | Anthony Magnabosco | Cristina | Dependency (Anti-Natalist on Suicide)
00:18:24
Summary: Christina returns for a fourth talk where we initially set out to explore her antinatalist view that it is unethical to bring a person into the world without consent, but quickly explore her personal position on end-of-life options. Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/LKF_-dFEv0c Wikipedia': "Antinatalism, or anti-natalism, is a philosophical position and social movement that assigns a negative value to birth. Antinatalists argue that people should abstain from procreation because it is morally bad." My first three talks with Cristina were in my view, inconsequential to this topic, and will likely never be uploaded. We are hoping to meet again soon on camera to revisit the morality of anti-natalism, as I regret not having spent more time on that. Cristina and I worked out many of the details surrounding the release of this video and I hope she feels comfortable keeping our channel of communication open should she wish to talk again.

Watch the previous interview here: https://youtu.be/5J398MCg3L0 The goal of SE is not necessarily to change a belief, but to exercise and explore good reasoning for how we know what we know. Is it possible to resolve differences of belief without debate? Are we open minded to the idea that we are close minded? What would it take to change our minds? I am an amateur philosopher. I can be wrong about my beliefs and would be happy to discover that I am. I encourage my viewers to consider this approach the next time we misunderstand or disagree with someone.

Ep 366: Dialogue | Campfire Convos | Lauren | Regarding a Force
01:03:37
Recorded: 27 December 2019 Uploaded: 4 January 2020 Released: 11 January 2020 Re-Released: 14 January 2020 (with explanation) Watch video here: https://youtu.be/h4LXf_n3pNQ Join the Discord server for next time! Link: https://discord.gg/eVX3MCe Twitter: @centratheist Email: se.convos@gmail.com What? Practicing “Street Epistemology" by campfire - speaking with folks about what they believe and why. HOWEVER, in this particular interview, we decided to allow other “Street Epistemologists” the opportunity to partake in the questioning via Discord social media application. This was the first known attempt at this method of “co-operative, group SE”. There was no rehearsal or prior knowledge regarding the specific topic. Lauren had watched only 1 of Anthony Magnabosco’s SE videos (“Martiza”) prior to this, and the Discorders listening had no idea what she would be discussing. #streetepistemology #groupSE #collabSE Why? “Open-ended Socratic questioning is a highly effective and respectful way to address dogmatic beliefs supported by logical fallacies—without arguing or debate.” - Dr. Tyrone Wells. Background: Lauren and I had gone years and even decades without having this discussion, or anything like it. My studying Street Epistemology opened the door for us to finally have this respectful talk that was LONG overdue. We are now closer than ever! Lessons: Because of the amount of time it takes for the Discorders to type their questions after the “# next question” prompt, the flow of conversation was disrupted. (I therefore edited out this downtime for the sake creating a fluid video - the raw video was about 1H20M). HOWEVER, these downtimes allowed Lauren the opportunity to think deeply about the questions and her answers. This type of SE chat can probably only take place in a controlled environment for these reasons. This group method proved to be an effective way to communicate with a close family member since I wasn’t the one asking most of the questions. I can imagine that it could be even more helpful with a family member that is less obliging, less open, or less intellectually honest. Respect: It's possible that my interviewee will read the comments, so be respectful. Join the Discord server for next time!

I also think this metaphor could have been problematic because she earlier said she was studying music, likely something she greatly enjoys. Suggesting (even remotely) that she might have to give up music to progress forward I think was a gaffe on my part. Sorry also about the noise. While we both likely understand that I have no control over the background noise in this spot, I am sorry for the challenging audio. Something that comes with filming in public, I suppose.

How do we put this method to the test?

Ep 347: Dialogue | Anthony Magnabosco | Jason | Divine Revelation (Atheists Can't Know Anything)
00:33:49
Location: San Antonio, Texas Recorded: 12 June 2019 Released: 1 August 2019 Uploaded: 1 August 2019 Summary: Jason appears to be using a variation of the presuppositionalist argument for Christianity in that no one can know anything until a person has a divine revelation from the Christian God. Interestingly, the confidence in his divinely revealed view also appears to require a mixture of evidence, faith, and hope. While we didn't really get a chance to explore how all of those work in tandem, I'm hopeful that we'll be able to meet again and clear things up, as well as try to answer any questions he may have for me.

Ep 337: Dialogue | Anthony Magnabosco | Jacob | Evolution v/s Design (Christian Apologetics Student)
00:34:22
Location: San Antonio, Texas Recorded: 10 April 2019 Released: 16 May 2019 Summary: Jacob is a college student and member of Ratio Christi, an on-campus Christian apologetics group that works hard to find ways to defend the faith. After attending part of my talk on Street Epistemology to the Secular Student Alliance (SSA)(where roughly 1/3 of the attendees were Christians), Jacob stopped and asked me to interrogate his claim that Jesus is historically real and is his Lord and Savior. We spent most of our time figuring out how much of an impact the truth of evolution (if it could be explained and demonstrated to his satisfaction) would have on his high degree of confidence and exploring whether or not he is using a consistent standard for accepting intelligent design and dismissing evolution.

Ep 336: Dialogue | Street Knowledge | Victor | Belief in a Higher Power
00:13:22
Recorded: 22 July 2018 Published: 22 July 2018 Released: 29 November 2018 Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/IDlKTuiPCC4 One of the things I love about Street Epistemology is that questions are asked with the goal of getting people to self-reflect. It is not about proving that they’re wrong. It is about planting the seed of self-reflection. And a certain openness on the part of the person you’re speaking with is required for that. This can be hard to come by when dealing with deeply held beliefs. But in this interview I chat with Victor, who I think displays incredible openness. The journey toward truth is not always comfortable. Perceived boogeymen lie behind every corner. Confronting those fears, even just acknowledging them, takes a bit of courage. Watch this video, as Victor confronts some of those fears when it comes to his belief in a Higher Power. A lot of the instructional material in this interview on how to conduct Street Epistemology came from The Complete Street Epistemology Guide, which you can find at the Street Epistemology website: https://streetepistemology.com/publications/the_complete_se_guide Link to Raul's 'Street Knowledge' YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRzxNyqE-FHUq7DozWh8sgg Raul on Twitter: twitter.com/strknowledge Music provided by Jim Rhodes, with Dan Harris on lap steel.

Recorded: 9 April 2019 Published: 9 April 2019 Released: 10 April 2019 Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/COaeyovXFBo I respect this man’s story. Dan had a traumatic event in his life when he was young, when his mother died after being in a coma for 18 months. Anyone who has been through such trauma and come out on the other side as a whole human being has a story to tell. In Dan’s case, this event had a lot to do with why he believes in God. During that time, he prayed to God, and God answered. I can feel the impact of that, even as someone who doesn’t believe in God. Dan was in need, and he feels like God showed up in just the right moment. That is incredibly powerful. Which is what made this conversation especially sensitive. How do we talk about someone’s beliefs when those beliefs are loaded with emotional significance? Is it even possible to call such beliefs into question…without being a jerk?

The examples he talks about where it is most obvious that God was active in his life is a series of circumstances that were both beneficial and rare.

Ep 300: Dialogue | Street Knowledge | Michael | God Exists/False Prophecy
00:21:17
Recorded: 22 July 2018 Published: 22 July 2018 Released: 29 November 2018 Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/bWOkfEBnOF4 The tables get turned in this one, with Michael asking me what I believe in after we talked for a few minutes about his beliefs. How do we talk with other people about their beliefs while being honest about our own? Michael believes God exists because of an experience he had where he prayed for God to reveal himself, and then a song played that was just the song he felt he needed at that moment in his life. He attributes this to God, so we talk about that, as well as the possibility that such an experience is due to mere coincidence, and how we might distinguish between these two possibilities. Michael shows a high degree of doxastic closure, so we also discuss what might change his mind. After talking about what be believes for a few minutes, he then asks me if I believe in God. So I get to answer some of his questions related to my non-belief in God, which deals with the authority of the Bible and alleged false prophecies. Notes on our conversation: I made a mistake at one point in the conversation by interpreting him as saying that an event is never due to coincidence. He didn’t quite say that. Rather, he identified a method for determining whether or not an event is due to coincidence. I should have explored more what that method is, and how he applied it in determining that his experience was not coincidence. How do we distinguish between coincidence and a divine event? What characteristics does a divine event have that a coincidence doesn’t? When asked how he knows that something isn’t a coincidence, he appealed to his knowledge of Scripture. So it seems like the Bible is an important part of his foundation, and exploring why he has this as his foundation would have been interesting. What is it about the Bible that he sees as authoritative? How does he know that it is a solid foundation upon which to build knowledge? **MISSED OPPORTUNITY**: I feel like I ended the interview at a bad place, right where he appealed to faith. When he said, “If you have a faith like mine in God, you would easily see that it is real”, I should have asked him what it is about his faith that allows him to distinguish truth. I find that when I review my interviews a lot of times, I find a point in the dialogue where I could have dug deeper, and this was definitely one of those missed opportunities. His comment at the end would have been a perfect segue-way into discussing the reliability of faith. One thing I love about this interview was the opportunity to be asked questions myself, and for him to probe the reasons why I do not believe in God. I appreciated that, but also how, after explaining some of my views, it came back around to the all-important “how”. How did he arrive at his interpretation of Scripture? A lot of times Street Epistemology deals with how faith works as an epistemology. But here I got to experiment with how literary interpretation works as an epistemology—how someone handles the Bible, and whether or not the methods they used to arrive at their conclusion are reliable.

Ep 296: Dialogue | Anthony Magnabosco | Emily | It's Easier to Not Believe

Location: San Antonio, Texas Recorded: 11 April 2016 Uploaded: 11 April 2016 Released: 15 November 2018 Twitter: https://twitter.com/magnabosco (follow me) YouTube: https://youtube.com/magnabosco210 (tons of Playlists) Facebook: https://facebook.com/magnabosco210 (like my page) Website: https://anthonymagnabosco.com (contact me, appearances) SE Resources: https://tinyurl.com/abm-se-resources SE Community: https://tinyurl.com/abm-se-community Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/dTCBoQHyZqU Music provided by Chet Hovatter. Summary: Emily is an atheist (and possible nihilist) visiting San Antonio from New York who was 100 percent certain that a God does not exist. The non-belief scale became a little confusing as we bandied between the 0 percent and 100 percent to refer to absolute certainty. We both seemed to understand each other at the time, however. Hopefully that's not too confusing for others. Mistakes: I'm unsure why my phone started playing music at the start of the talk. That was not a ringtone but a video advertisement on Twitter. Stupid phone. Grr. Recorded w/Go-Pro. Edited w/PowerDirector. The views addressed here are mine and mine alone, and are not necessarily shared by members of my family and friends.

Recorded: 16 August 2018 Published: 1 September 2018 Released: 1 September 2018 Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/AZTG_CdIbEQ Ansley and Hunter are Christians who believe in God because of the purpose and meaning it gives to their lives. There is a deep sense in which they just “feel” Christianity is true. In this interview we unpack that a little bit. What about the Muslim who says he just “feels” Islam is true? How do we compare competing claims that something is true due to feelings? CHANNEL UPDATE: This video will be the last one I post, at least for a while. I need to step back from YouTube to devote more time and energy to family and career. Thank you so much for your support!

Mortgage Hill Musings makes a living teaching science concepts. When he doesn’t have an answer or a sufficient explanation, he is happy to admit his ignorance. His hope is that, through the practice of Street Epistemology, others will come to enjoy the freedom that such honesty provides.

Ep 248: Dialogue | Street Knowledge | Regina | The Holy Spirit
00:16:24
Recorded: 24 May 2018 Published: 24 May 2018 Released: 29 May 2018 Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/T8FNuP5FQHI Here, I talk with Regina about her belief that a supernatural experience she once had, what she calls a “piercing of the heart”, was due to the Holy Spirit. We talk about how she determined that her experience was due to the Holy Spirit. Is it possible for someone to have an intense emotional experience and yet it not be due to the Holy Spirit? If so, how do we determine whether an experience is due to the Spirit or some other cause? She also mentions the Bible as one reason she believes it was the Holy Spirit, so we talk about how that factors into things. How would she interpret the experience of a Muslim who also appealed to their sacred text? What do you think? What different directions would you have gone with the discussion? Is there anything you would have liked to see me ask? Your feedback is very much welcome and appreciated. Let me know what you think. As always, your feedback is welcome.

Ep 246: Dialogue | Anthony Magnabosco | Tatum & Dylon | Setting the Intention (Extended Version)

San Antonio, Texas Recorded: 17 May 2018 Uploaded: 28 May 2018 Released: 28 May 2018 Twitter: https://twitter.com/magnabosco Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/magnabosco210 Website: www.anthonymagnabosco.com IMPORTANT LINKS BELOW! Watch video of this talk here: https://youtu.be/e20u1m4tf_I Tatum and Dylon were an enthusiastic couple who readily agreed to be interviewed. Because I had just finished a rather lengthy interview, my equipment needed to be refreshed before we could start the conversation. On top of that, our talk meandered quite a bit, so I felt it necessary to edit the footage in order to keep things focused for the viewer. For example, the ten minutes or so we spent on the "truth test" with my box of candies was cut, as well as the part where Dylon spent a significant amount of time talking about the frequencies crystals can emit and how those can affect human beings. This was also perhaps one of the first times where it dawned on me to see if one of my interviewees would be interested in learning and practicing Street Epistemology on their partner, so I've pared down this extended discussion into a more concise version and also started a new Playlist series called 'Watch People Learn Street Epistemology', which you can find here: http://tinyurl.com/PL-AM-SE-WPLSE Music provided by Chet Hovatter.

Ep 236: Dialogue | Street Knowledge | Viquesi | Christianity is True and Truth is Relative

Recorded: 5 May 2018 Published: 5 May 2018 Released: 15 May 2018 Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/LqMxXkb333c In this talk I speak with Viquesi about his belief in Christianity. He says that he believes in Christianity because it helps him out in his daily life. I then use the Outsider Test for Faith, and the conversation got into the relative nature of truth. Viquesi says that truth is what we make it, at least when it comes to religion. I wished I would have got into how interested he is personally in knowing that what he believes is true. If, hypothetically, he were wrong, would he want to know? Or I could have used the analogy he introduced about believing that your shoes will keep you safe, or your raincoat will keep you dry. If someone believed their raincoat would keep them dry, but then went outside in the rain and noticed that their clothes were getting drenched, should they alter their belief accordingly? If he found out he was wrong, would he change his belief? Let me know what you think. As always, your feedback is welcome.

Ep 235: Dialogue | Street Knowledge | Aliyah | There is No God
00:12:47
Recorded: 12 May 2018 Published: 12 May 2018 Released: 15 May 2018 Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/WFe0Kaq09RI My favorite part of this discussion was when the person I was interviewing, after being asked a thought-provoking question about her belief, and after pondering for a moment how to answer, said: “Now I have to think about that. What have you done?” I love seeing that, and any conversation that causes self-reflection and a critical self-examination of one’s beliefs, is successful in my book. Aliyah is an atheist. She believes there is no God due to insufficient evidence. So we talk briefly about the role of evidence in her belief, as well as what would count as sufficient evidence for her. What would it take to convince her that there was, in fact, a God?

Ep 231: Dialogue | Street Knowledge | Claudia | Everything Happens for a Reason
00:12:41
Recorded: 14 April 2018 Published: 27 April 2018 Released: 27 April 2018 Claudia believes that everything happens for a reason. So I ask her about how she knows this is true. How would we put such a claim to the test? If we know it is true because of the connection between seemingly random events, then what if, hypothetically, one of those events had not occurred? How do we distinguish between a connection between two events being because everything happens for a reason, and a connection being because of our interpretation after the fact? What role do our memories play in understanding such things? Is it possible for such connections to occur and yet everything not happen for a reason? What would disprove her belief? If she were wrong about this belief, would she want to know, and what difference would it make? Would life be any less meaningful for her if she found out that everything didn’t happen for a reason? Listen and find out how she thinks through all these things. Also, I apologize for some of the wind noise. I recently bought a wind cover for my camera that I think should solve the problem. Thanks for listening, and participate in the conversation by leaving a comment. Would you have done anything different if you were talking with Claudia about her belief? How would you explore her method of arriving at this particular truth claim?

Ep 226: Dialogue | Street Knowledge | Rozetta | The Bible is True
00:18:04
Recorded: 5 April 2018 Published: 6 April 2018 Released: 6 April 2018 Here, I talk with Rozetta about her belief that the Bible is true. She believes this, she says, because she has yet to find any untrue things in the Bible. So we talk about what untrue things she would have to find in order to decrease her level of certainty. We also talk about how open she would be to changing her mind if that evidence were in place. If finding true things in the Bible makes the Bible true, would finding untrue things make the Bible untrue? Rozetta explains how she works through all this to arrive at her conclusion.

Ep 224: Dialogue | Let's Chat | Tim | God is the Thing I'm Most Certain About
00:36:07
Recorded: 25 March 2018 Published: 25 March 2018 Released: 26 March 2018 Tim believes that the Christian God exists and that he has reliable methods to arrive at that conclusion. We explore his methodology and come to the conclusion that the amount of certainty he has in is greater than the reliability of his epistomology. In the end, we talk about the value of 'I don't know' as an answer to important questions while you wait or search for more conclusive information. We also addressed some of the apologetics he used to support his belief. Personal review: Tim is such a great guy and I think we really became good friends by the end of the talk. Once this recorded interview was done, he stood by the table and talked with me for nearly another half hour--we both really enjoyed the talk. I really believe that throughout the conversation, Tim was honestly and openly examining his beliefs..

How do we know when a knowledge claim requires objective verification? Does Kyle require evidence for his belief in God? If not, why not? How do we consistently apply our standards of evidence for the various claims we have?

00:12:51
Recorded: 4 February 2018 Published: 4 February 2018 Released: 5 February 2018 Here, I talk with Victoria about her belief that God is good. She primarily appeals to her experience, so we talk about how exactly that leads to her belief. What about people whose experience leads them to the opposite conclusion? How do we verify the validity of our experience? What would serve as evidence that God was not, in fact, good? Listen as Victoria explains how she thinks through all of these things.

Ep 202: Song | Title: Street Epistemology
00:03:07
Street Epistemology -- Above the lights in the city sky Does something reside outside of space and time Does it only exist inside of your own mind Is the truth something that you are hoping to find Do you really want to know Are you ready to let go Planting a seed and trying to raise a doubt Compelling a thought about what it's all about Engaging interlocutors with civility A whisper is more effective than a scream Reach- I never knew I could reach so high I see-as I'm gazing up to the sky Street Epistemology-reach into your mind Do you really have a reason to believe The Socratic method just might set you free Open up your eyes,who knows what you'll see Just hold out your hand and accept this key -- - Words and music by Gary Munro - All instruments played by Gary Munro - Vocals by Marc Amendola
