Roundtable rebuttal: intelligent design and leprechauns
Troy is invited to respond and argues from intelligent design, citing astronomy and molecular biology. The guest Chris Roloff flips the proof, arguing leprechauns 'exist' by its own standard -- cereal, books, legends, TV appearances. The hosts counter that the author invents what God would do (a red t-shirt, taking over TV stations) and that historical gods were real spiritual beings, just not the true God. Ben is addressed directly in the exchange.
