The Gilmore-Rosenberg Debate: Suffering, Morality, and the Existence of God
The Gilmore-Rosenberg Debate: Suffering, Morality, and the Existence of God
Print version of one night debate held September 27, 2016, on the campus of The Ohio State University between Dr. Ralph Gilmore, professor of Bible and Philosophy, Freed-Hardeman University, Henderson, TN, and Dr. Alexander Rosenberg, professor of Philosophy, Duke University, Durham, NC. The question of God has the potential to affect us in the most far reaching ways beyond any other question we might consider. The intellectual battle between Christian theism and atheism remains the most important duel in the world. If Professor Rosenberg is right about evolution and there being no infinite God, then nothing really matters. On the other hand, if Professor Gilmore is right, that man can know that God exists, then nothing else matters more.
