In this course, we will examine different theories of human nature. We will be guided by two focusing questions: 'What makes me happy?' and 'What keeps me from being happy?'. We will address these questions on both individual and communal levels. Students will constantly be encouraged to connect the theories discussed in class with their own experience.

This course is a philosophical examination of some fundamental questions in Christian metaphysics: Can we prove that God exists?  What is God like?  What is creation?  How are God and creation related?  More particularly, if God created everything, how do evolution and the Big Bang fit into the picture?  We will attempt to formulate our own answers to each of these questions; but our discussion will make constant reference to the answers already present in the Christian tradition, especially to those of Thomas Aquinas.
