Good Without God

VENUE : National Museum of Scotland: Auditorium

FESTIVAL: Edinburgh International Science Festival

CATEGORY: Workshops & Learning

A recent survey showed that 40% of the Scottish population no longer belong to any religion, yet most Scots are law-abiding citizens. Are they obeying a natural moral code which predates religion, or does morality ultimately derive from belief in gods, or God? Is there any correlation between religion and goodness or the lack of it? Two humanists, scientist Professor Paul Braterman and teacher of Religious, Moral and Philosophical studies Keith Gilmour, ask where does our sense of right and wrong come from? Presented by The Humanist Society of Scotland
