R1120: Does God Exist? in Splash Fall 2014 (Nov. 16, 2014)
Exactly as the title suggests: a seminar to discuss one of the most pressing questions of the human experience in depth.
Note: this class will be a _discussion_, not a debate, not an argument, and definitely not a lecture. Animosity, anger, and disrespect are not allowed and will result in removal from the discussion. This is a big question with much personal significance to all of us, whatever our perspectives, and by participating one agrees to recognize that we are all here to learn and to gain better understanding, not to "win" or to "be right."
