Is there evidence for a Creator? This series provides facts and insights from philosophy, cosmology and biology to show that belief in God is rational. We will survey recent findings in the physical and biological sciences, as well as mathematical probabilities, which provide a compelling case for the existence of God. These lessons also show how God's existence offers a coherent explanation for objective and meaningful morality. This is a 5 part series, including lecture and discussion. Optional free dinner before at 5pm. If you want to come for the dinner email fanqig@mit.edu.

Jan/22 | Tue | 05:30PM-07:00PM | 4-145 |
Our last session will look more to philisophical ideas that point to God's existence - specifically human morality. Does our moral experience as humans point to the existence of God? Is the existence of God the best explanation of human morality?
