Cosmology: A Religion for Atheists?
March 22, 2015 • William Lane Craig
In the film The Theory Of Everything, Stephen Hawking (portrayed by Eddie Redmayne) claims that cosmology is "a religion for intelligent atheists". The question haunts the film as it haunts Hawking's books.
Dr William Lane Craig examines this claim - critiquing both dialogue from the film, and Prof. Hawking's own publications. Does a beginning to the universe entail a creator? Does Hawking's latest "no boundary" Big Bang model eliminate the need for God? What hope is there, in a Godless universe? And is philosophy "dead" as Stephen Hawking claims?
This lecture was delivered at Highfield Church, Southampton, in the UK.
