Backscatter is the term used to describe a specific way in which radiation or waves reflect back to their source through an angle of 180 degrees. The art of conversation is very much a back and forth--two people bouncing thoughts and ideas off of each other. Sometimes our thoughts and ideas do a full 180 through discussion with others, when we reflect inwardly the same can happen. Whether we’re sending waves out to others or sending waves into ourselves, we always get something back; the backscatter is unavoidable.

Episode 8 - Conceptions of God, Religion, & The Problem of Evil
<p><strong>We’re back with another episode of Backscatter! On this week's episode, Josh and Amir discussed their beliefs in God and why they believe in those particular conceptions of God. They also explored different beliefs in God and why someone may adopt that particular conception. The two of them also discussed religion in a broad sense, the positives, as well as many of the issues they find with organized religion. For example, people who are particularly religious claim to “know” what God is when that is not something anyone could literally know. There is a reason why religion is called beliefs and not knowledge. They also discussed the problem of evil: If God is all good, all knowing, and all powerful, how does evil exist. They discussed some of the solutions they’ve heard of as well as exploring some of their own solutions. Ultimately though, there does not seem to be an adequate solution, this idea is explored further in the episode. Towards the end they also touched on the concept of miracles and why it seems unlikely that they are real.

Episode 7 - Narratives, Culture, & Covid-19
<p><strong>Welcome back to this week’s episode of Backscatter! On this episode, Josh and Amir had a discussion largely revolving around how the nature of reality is often grey, yet most people like to see things as black or white. The subject of COVID-19 and the vaccines were the catalyst for this particular conversation, however, the idea of things being grey and not black or white can be applied to anything as they explore later on in the episode. Most people find a narrative they believe in and do not explore any other ideologies aside from their own. Social media has made this one of the easiest things to do as we often willingly trap ourselves in an echo-chamber of ideas we agree with. But, social media has also made it extremely easy to find ideas you disagree with, to listen, and to learn. Stay tuned for more episodes of Backscatter, every Thursday at 12 PM PST!</strong></p> <p>Amir's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/realamirallen/</p> <p>Josh's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thejoshcolumbus/</p>
