WHICH GODS DO NOT EXIST?

No Gods Created the Universe

SYNOPSIS:

    Are science and religion necessarily at odds?
Does the advance of modern science
cause the retreat of religion?
Is is possible to be a person of spirit
and still believe in the wholly-natural origin of the universe?
Does giving up pre-scientific world-views
necessarily mean giving up all forms of spirituality?

OUTLINE:

---NOW AND IN THE FUTURE---
TO BELIEVE IN ANY CREATOR-GODS.

II. WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS OF
LOSING FAITH IN A CREATOR-GOD?

III. THE WORLD AS DESCRIBED BY FOLK TALES

IV. THE UNIVERSE AS DESCRIBED BY MODERN SCIENCE
