Hope you are having a good week so far!RobInformation about the Veritas forum below:

The Veritas Forum: Do you know why you believe or why you don't believe? Underneath the incredibly complex human brain are a few decision-making tools that have been with us since the Stone Age. Come learn about the science of human belief in God from noted researcher and cognitive scientist Dr. Justin Barrett. Dr. Barrett's presentation will focus on several important concepts including how religious belief is natural based on its evolutionary advantages and the way human minds work, as well as the implications of these ideas on religious thought. A Q&A session with the audience, moderated by Dr. Bryan Enderle, will follow Dr. Barrett's talk.

Dr. Barrett holds a Ph.D. in experimental psychology from Cornell University and served as the senior researcher for the Centre for Anthropology and the Mind and the Institute for Cognitive and Evolutionary Anthropology at Oxford University.

While you may think you understand belief, believe me, there's so much more to learn! Join us in 123 SciLec at 8:00pm on Thursday, January 19. The Veritas Forum, jointly sponsored by the Club Finance Council and a coalition of Christian fellowships, is perfect for anyone interested in psychology, religious studies, philosophy, or anthropology. Bring your friends, and we'll see you there!
