Argument

FIVE DAYS UNTIL BREAK!!!  Woot woot.

Sorry.  Here's the scoop:

Today in class you were presented with the video debate between William Lane Craig and Sam Harris at The University of Notre Dame (you can find it on youtube to watch the whole thing).  Your job is to watch the debate - as little or as much of it as you choose - and come to class Wednesday with your position.  Do you defend, challenge of qualify the topic:  "Are the foundations of moral values natural or supernatural?"  In other words. "Does good come from God?".  

Your job is to gather evidence to support your position and be prepared to argue your views in class.

****PLEASE NOTE that I am NOT participating in the debate, and my personal views WILL NOT BE SHARED.  I'm simply the facilitator of the argument.

Remember that you should support your position with appropriate evidence from your
1) reading,
2) observations,
3) or experience.

Divorce emotion from this and lead with a cool, calm, collected mind.  Maintain your credibility and support your case.

EXCITED!!!!

xoxo

P.S. - TED Talks tomorrow as usual but I'll show a couple to help your brain
