In this lecture given in June 2012 at the Union League Club in New York City, Berlinski directs these unanswered questions to the scientific community: Is morality a compulsive force? Can science prove that God does not exist? How might an organ like the brain develop beyond the needs of the possessor?The post David Berlinski: The Devil’s Delusion first appeared on Socrates in the City.
