Towards a New Scientific Revolution | Ep 003
Dive into the deep roots of the Scientific Revolution and how they still shape what we call “reality” today.In this episode, Igor Sobkowicz, Taylor Lankford, and Joe Penrod explore how early modern thinkers shattered inherited worldviews, why our perception of reality is more fragile than we like to admit, and what this means for knowledge, truth, and the future of science itself. We trace the shift from pre-modern metaphysics to experimental method, the birth of modern epistemology, and the tension between faith, reason, and empirical evidence. Along the way, we wrestle with questions like: What can we really know? How do paradigms frame what counts as a “fact”? And are we on the edge of another revolution in scientific discovery?If you’re interested in philosophy of science, theology, epistemology, or just love asking “How do we know what we know?”, this conversation is for you.----------------------------------------------Sources/Attributions:"Image: “Derrida-by-Pablo-Secca” by Pablosecca, used under CC BY 3.0.Source: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Derrida-by-Pablo-Secca.jpgLicense: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/""Image: “AVT Gilles-Deleuze 6342” by Tintinades, licensed under CC BY‑SA 4.0.Source: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:AVT_Gilles-Deleuze_6342.webpLicense: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/""Image: “John Henry, HSS 2008” by G.P.
