Why a Fine-Tuned Universe?

October 23, 2008 by Tom Grosh IV No Comments

Messiah College Historian of Science Ted Davis just passed along the below announcement. As one who has had the opportunity to read some of Robin Collins’ work and to hear some of his thoughts in the context of the Central Pennsylvania Forum for Religion and Science, I commend his work for your consideration.

I apologize for the late notice, but I only just learned about this.

Messiah College philosopher Robin Collins will appear in an interview on the PBS program “Closer to the Truth,” hosted by Robert Kuhn. This program will play throughout the United States and in some places oversees. It plays locally at 1:00 pm this Thursday, October 23, on WITF-HD, PBS channel 33.3. The program’s title and description are “Why a Fine-Tuned Universe? (HD, TVG) The many seemingly random occurrences that led to human existence are discussed.”
