Trent Horn, apologist and speaker for Catholic Answers, debated Raphael Lataster on the question "Does God Exist?" at the University of Sydney on the 25th of May 2016

After his conversion to the Catholic Faith, Trent Horn earned a master's degree in theology from Franciscan University of Steubenville and is currently pursuing a graduate degree in philosophy from Holy Apostles College.

He serves as a staff apologist for Catholic Answers and specializes in teaching Catholics to graciously and persuasively engage those who disagree with them. Trent models that approach each week on the radio program Catholic Answers Live where he dialogues with atheists, pro-choice advocates, and other non-Catholic callers.

Trent is also a lecturer who travels throughout the world speaking on subjects related to the Catholic faith and the co-host of Hearts and Minds, a weekly radio program that discusses timely issues from an eternal perspective. In addition to being a public speaker, Trent is the author of three books: Answering Atheism, Persuasive Pro-life, and his latest book Hard Sayings: A Catholic Approach to Answering Bible Difficulties.

Raphael Lataster lectures at the University of Sydney (Studies in Religion) and teaches about religion at various institutions. His main research interests include Christian origins, Philosophy of Religion, and alternative god-concepts such as pantheism and pandeism. He is an avid rock climber, a card-carrying Discordian pope, and an officially ordained Dudeist priest.

Raphael wrote his Master’s thesis on Jesus ahistoricity theories, concluding that historical and Bayesian reasoning justifies a sceptical attitude towards the ‘Historical Jesus’. For his doctoral work, Raphael analysed the major philosophical arguments for God’s existence (as argued by William Lane Craig, Richard Swinburne and Thomas Aquinas), demonstrated the logical improbability of theism, explored the theological tendencies of Philosophy of Religion, and argued for the plausibility of pantheistic worldviews.

Being passionate about education, Raphael hopes to continue teaching in Religious Studies and Philosophy, and makes every effort to engage with the public, through popular books, speaking engagements, and public debates.
