Are Babies Moral? Did God Make Them That Way?



Using the information from the 60 Minutes piece and the article from The New Republic distributed in class, write your reaction to the title questions.  Then, how do you suppose religion/theology fits into this research?

Here is a link to another look at Yale's Baby Lab experiments.

You must also reply to at least two other students' observations (respectfully, as always).

Science and Religion in Conflict?

You've studied a number of articles and videos that touch on the question of whether science and religion are in conflict:

Try Religion - You'll Live Longer!
Moment of Death documentary
Is Your Brain Hard-wired for Religion?
Views on Science and Religion

After thinking about these resources and sharing ideas with your classmates, post your thoughts here on the topic.  Respectfully reply to others' comments as well.  Be as thorough as possible and cite information and ideas from the resources.
