Today I discuss Trent Horn's (@TheCounselofTrent) responses to Alex O'Connor's (@CosmicSkeptic) and Drew McCoy's (@GeneticallyModifiedSkeptic) criticisms of the argument from change. NOTE (ADDED 3/21/26): This video represented my views at the time of recording. Some of my views have changed since then, but I'm leaving the video up because it contains lots of helpful information, and also shows my thinking at the time. Like the show? Help it grow!
