John Lennox
The Convener
The room, the network and the deal, brings the right people together.
John Lennox reads as The Convener because he has built a life's work on gathering people across one of intellectual culture's deepest divides, science and faith. An Oxford mathematician who has publicly debated Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens, Lennox does more than defend a position. He assembles coalitions of thought, weaving mathematical logic, philosophy, and theology into a shared space where audiences are invited into a conversation bigger than the usual culture war.
“I believe the evidence supports it otherwise I wouldn't. I've interrogated myself about it for over 70 years. I've made myself totally vulnerable.”
“AI is a reductionist — we're reducing people to machines. Machines do not think, do not have consciousness. God connected in us consciousness and intelligence; that gives us supreme dignity.”
“The creeping advance of totalitarianism is something that concerns us all. We are sleepwalking into this — being rolled out in parts of the world, particularly China. Beware.”
