Robin Collins
2010 Distinguished Lecturer
Tuesday and Wednesday, April 6 and 7, 2010, 7:00pm
Arntzen Hall 100; Western Washington University

Philosopher of science and religion Robin Collins is Professor of Philosophy at Messiah College in Grantham, Pennsylvania. With earned degrees in mathematics, physics, and philosophy, Professor Collins is widely regarded as one of the foremost proponents of the fine-tuning argument. His book, The Well-Tempered Universe: God, the Fine-Tuning, and the Laws of Nature, will soon become the standard on the topic. His work in the philosophy of religion focuses on Eastern religions and the Christian doctrine of the atonement. Professor Collins will offer two lectures for a general audience on successive evenings, the first on the fine-tuning argument and the second on the incarnational theory of atonement.
