Season 6 Podcast 4, A New Voice of Freedom, Argument for the Existence of God, “Immortal Matter.”  According to the laws of conservation and thermodynamics, matter and energy, though they can be changed, cannot be created or destroyed.  They are conserved over time.  That has enormous spiritual, temporal, and philosophical implications.  First of all, it means that matter and energy self-exist.  T...
