Questioning God: Faith and Atheism in Australia
UTC in conjunction with (PaCT) will host 'Questioning God' conference from 21-23 October 2011.
Will Australia's future be godless? Should there be chaplains in public schools? Should faith inform politics? Should religious belief be reflected in Australian law? Does scientific inquiry preclude belief in God? These are questions raised by the emergence of the 'new atheism' in Australia. They are serious questions not only for people of faith but for Australian society as a whole.
This conference will enable a wide ranging, constructive engagement with the 'new atheism' and the place of faith in Australian Society.
Keynote Speaker Professor David Fergusson (University of Edinburgh)
