What Does It Mean to be Human?
Are we “nothing but” an evolved animal? How do we know human beings are “something more?”
#6 What Does It Mean to be Human?
Part 2
Thursday, November 17, 4:00-5:30 pm
We are told that we have evolved from the “ape family” by Darwinian Evolution and are still evolving to a higher level that will be aided by Artificial Intelligence (AI). Is this true? What does science have to say? What is the current stage of understanding and development? What are the philosophical and theological implications?
In Part 1 we learned that we have an immaterial nature as well as a material body. That there is a hard dividing line between animals and humans. And that our Mind is more that our Brain.
In Part 2 we will discuss, are humans the only creatures that seek out their destiny and contemplate death? Are humans the only creatures that seek meaning and purpose to their lives? Is there any scientific evidence for the existence of a soul?
Come and explore this fascinating topic in the sixth part of our 7-part series aimed at answering the Big Question, Has Science Rediscovered a Creator? The entire series (currently some 15 sessions) is available on video and audio podcast by clicking on the VIDEOCAST button on the menu above.
