If We Are Looking for the Simplest Explanation for the Universe, Why Would We Infer God? (Video)

J. Warner Wallace answers questions following a presentation at Ohio State University. If detectives are always looking for the simplest explanation, why would anyone infer God? Isn’t God the most complicated explanation? Surely God is a complicated Being, isn’t He? Be sure to check out Eric Chabot’s ministry on the campus of Ohio State.

For more information about the scientific and philosophical evidence pointing to a Divine Creator, please read God’s Crime Scene: A Cold-Case Detective Examines the Evidence for a Divinely Created Universe. This book employs a simple crime scene strategy to investigate eight pieces of evidence in the universe to determine the most reasonable explanation. The book is accompanied by an eight-session God’s Crime Scene DVD Set (and Participant’s Guide) to help individuals or small groups examine the evidence and make the case.

    Right! Surely man’s collective Almighty, omniscient mind would see beyond the need for a god. We are here because we willed ourselves here.
