“Well, no. It’s ultimately about arithmetic. You should leave Goedel (and Hilbert) out of this. It just sounds ridiculous to drop those names in the context of some argument about religion and faith.”

Stanley Jaki held doctorates in physics, philosophy and theology. He wrote twenty some books on the philosophy and history of science, often dealing with its relationship to Christianity. Goedel’s theorem was one of his special interests and I think I’ll continue to go with his opinion that Goedel is highly relevant to the discussion.

Go for it. Make yourself out to look stupid if you so desire.
