Note: We are a group of Christians interested in furthering the dialogue between neuroscience and the truth of the Christian faith. This meeting is open to anyone who wants to learn more about the Christian Neuroscience Society. At this informal gathering, Dr. Michael Hildebrand (Carleton University), will share his story about faith and progressing from grad student to professor. A continental breakfast will be provided.

 

What is the relationship between faith and reason? Why is evil such a difficult problem? What is the purpose of death and the grave? Are they the final end of our human existence when we die and become food for microbes. There have been numerous and conflicting answers to these questions during the course of history. So, maybe we should ask ourselves if it is even possible to know whether or not our answers are correct? Maybe the answer is that there are no real answers to life's questions. Perhaps, our questions are just the meaningless occupation of over-sensitive fools. But, on the other hand, what if these questions have answers? What if it were possible to have a personal relationship with the Creator of the universe? What if the Creator really loved us and desired our love and fellowship, and we could reciprocate His love and fellowship? Life could suddenly become vibrant and meaningful.

"I am absolutely convinced that the gas chambers of Auschwitz, Treblinka, and Maidanek were ultimately prepared not in some Ministry or other in Berlin, but rather at the desks and in the lecture halls of nihilistic scientists and philosophers." — Viktor E. Frankl, Holocaust survivor and Professor of Neurology and Psychiatry, University of Vienna Medical School; from his book, The Doctor and the Soul.
