Hello Perry. I’ve been following your work for years, and am pretty certain I know your answer to this, but wanted clarification. You avoid God a lot in your topics, and if you still believe he is the center of this massive thing we call our universe. This is done (im assuming) so as to have a constructive conversation of the science and I appreciate that. I know your brother is still searching, at least from the last I’ve heard about him, but I was wondering if you have come to the conclusion or not that your faith in God is well founded, or if you are searching along side your brother. You teased this in the interview, and was hoping that you would explain further. Has this journey strengthened your faith, or put it into question? Thank you very much for what you do. You have been a great help in my search for the truth.
Hi Perry. You touched on your brothers journey in the interview, and from what I know he is still searching. I was curious to know if the work you have done has solidified your faith in God or caused you to search like your brother. I know you most likely avoid saying God in your conversation about cognition, so as to focus on the science. But I am fascinated with this subject and wanted to see where perry stands in the God question. Thank you!
Hunter,
Everything I’ve discovered in science has reinforced my original suspicion that the cosmos is divinely ordered.
I would also add that the whole process of considering faith an “80/20” of reconsidering what matters and what doesn’t, what is central to Christianity and what isn’t. I ended up reconstructing much of my theology.
Some articles / talks that should give you some idea of where I’m at:

Thank you very much Perry! I apologize for the duplicate comments, I didn’t think the first one went through. Will dig into the literature shortly!
