Subject Description

This subject is a philosophical examination of whether God exists. Questions covered may include Do recent scientific discoveries about the origins and nature of the physical universe yield a good argument for the view that the physical universe was designed by some intelligent being? Could historical evidence for miracles in principle provide good evidence that God exists? Just how strong a theoretical difficulty does evil constitute for belief in God?
