Lecture Series on “Evidence & God” | Can we know that God exists?
24
Feb
The Faculty of Religious Studies and Philosophy will hold a Public Lecture on “Evidence & God” titled “Can we know that God exists?” on 24 February 2022.
ABOUT THE SERIES:
Can we know that God exists? Is there evidence for God? Is there a conflict between science and religion? What constitutes good evidence for a religious claim? This lecture series explores answers to these questions.
ABOUT THE TALK:
Reformed epistemology (RE) is the thesis that religious belief can be rational, justified, or warranted apart from argument. In this lecture, Professor McNabb argues for this thesis. After utilizing tools from contemporary analytic epistemology to demonstrate the plausibility of RE, Professor McNabb explores whether or not cognitive science of religion creates a problem for the RE project.
