Caller Steve discusses criticisms of "scientism"- the belief science is the only path to truth. He wonders if science's focus on natural explanations means it would miss a supernatural God. Forrest asks Steve to clarify if he means science or scientism. The hosts push back that if gods like the Islamic God interacted with reality and humans, that would make them measurable by science. They debate whether Muhammad could have been honestly mistaken rather than lying or telling the truth. Steve feels Muhammad was sincere and prophets like him had alleged experiences of the divine. The hosts argue holy texts also contain clear scientific errors and ask why Steve doesn't then believe Christianity. Steve acknowledges good counterarguments against his stance but feels the Quran contains some accurate "scientific miracles." The hosts liken this to horoscopes and say religious texts are so broad followers project meaning onto them.
