Description
THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED, WE HOPE TO RESCHEDULE SOON
Some say that morality is created by and for human beings—its origins and authority are relative to the culture we live in. Others are squeamish about moral relativism and instead try to identify some objective basis for morality—science, human nature, or God. This Focus on the Humanities talk will survey these views and reveal the serious problems that beset them all.
