This course is suitable for students taking their first philosophy course, or those wishing to broaden their understanding of philosophical issues. The course focuses on topics related to God, faith, and religion. Examples of the kinds of topics considered include: philosophical arguments for and against the existence of God; the case for and against miracles; the so-called problem of evil; the seeming tension between science and faith; the impact of religion on society; conceptions of the divine; the psychology of religious belief; the problem of whether there's any basis for objective morality if there is no God.
This noncredit class meets with a regular University of Utah credit course.
Online book and material fees may be added up until the first week of class. Students may opt out during the first two weeks of class. For more information, visit the Campus Store Inclusive Access Program's webpage. If you opt out, you will be responsible for obtaining the course materials yourself for the course.
