ShowsGod vs Science Debate with Peter Atkins and Keith Fox
Ruth Jackson returned to school to host this lively debate between Peter Atkins, renowned atheist and scientist, and Keith Fox, Christian biologist and theologian.

Will further advancements in technology—like space exploration, genetic modification, and AI override any need or belief in God?
