Creation Symposium
The Master's College presents: A Christian Response to Atheism, and a Creation Response to Natural Evil
Featuring Dr. Gordon Wilson of New Saint Andrews College, Pastor Douglas Wilson of New Saint Andrews College and Christ Church, and Dr. Joseph Francis of The Master’s College.
Conference Date: Saturday, February 23, 2013
Critics of Christianity challenge the idea that there is evidence to support that God exists. In addition, some critics also assert that the imperfection in nature, as exemplified by disease, pestilence and natural disasters (natural evil) works against the idea that there is a benevolent creator God. What is the Christian response to these views? Our speakers will be providing a Christian response to these critiques.
