Belief and the Gods
Description
There are hundreds, perhaps thousands, of faiths and gods. Yet each religion believes theirs is the true account. Is this because belief in the divine is a fantasy humans have evolved to hold? Or does it indicate something essential about the character of the world? The Panel Philosopher and author of The War for Children's Minds Stephen Law, Zizek collaborator John Milbank and anthropologist of religion Madawi Al-Rasheed debate the origin of belief. Sponsored by Mostlymaps.
