I sat down with Father Robert Spitzer, a Jesuit priest and author known for his work on the intersection of faith and science, to explore how cutting-edge physics, historical evidence, and theology converge to support belief in Catholicism. He breaks down why the Big Bang and related cosmological discoveries have built a powerful case for a transcendent creator of the universe. Father Spitzer also explains the role of the pope in the Catholic Church, the historical basis for papal authority, and why the Church’s 2,000-year survival is not just impressive but unprecedented.
