This course considers the philosophical basis and implications of religious belief and theological foundations. Questions about the existence of God, the problem of evil, the scope of religious experience, the existence of miracles, and the nature of faith are discussed. The course includes readings from and discussions about the most influential ancient philosophers and modern thinkers. The goal is to enable students to think critically, objectively, and carefully about the relation between belief and evidence, faith and proof, and about religious claims and issues.
