Lecture addresses Darwinism and the meaning of life

Dr. Arthur Falk, professor emeritus of philosophy at Western Michigan University, will speak on "Darwinism and the Meaning of Life" at 7 p.m. Thursday, March 15, in the Brown and Gold Room of the Bernhard Center. His talk is presented by the WMU Center for the Study of Ethics in Society and is open to the public free of charge.

Falk maintains that Darwinism does provide the material for individuals to construct the meaning of their lives, once they understand their situation in the world.

How he will justify ultimate meaning, significance, and purpose to life should be challenged by all who attend. It looks like he will say you can make up your own meaning to life, which would just be a self-delusion, and avoidance of the real consequence of an atheistic worldview.
