Interview 4: Will Wilson, from Catholic to Atheist to Eastern Orthodox

Informações:

Synopsis

In which software engineer and A.I. researcher William A. Wilson recounts his journey from Roman Catholicism to atheism, from atheism to deism, and from deism to Eastern Orthodoxy. We discuss substitutionary atonement, physicalism, sudden experiences of God's presence, "regular unction," why the Orthodox love Pope Francis, the intense beauty of the Divine Liturgy, the potential (imminent?) reunion of Coptic and Eastern Orthodox Christians, and the ecumenism of friendship, shared worship, and shared veneration of saints.
