Join us on Mission 17-14 as we begin our quest into reason and logic, does it exist here on Earth? We'll also consider arguments. How's your argument? Our launch pad is Job 9 that contains a famous argument between Job and his friends as Job ponders how can man reason with God. Blaise Pascal , one of our previous spotlight scientists, asked a similar question regarding the existence of God, and the failure of humon logic to answer, now known as "Pascal's Wager". We'll look at this gamble on eternity as it is commonly presented and as it was originally presented in the 17th century. What are the theological as well as logical considerations with this bet your life scenario? We'll then briefly consider argument and logic as an introduction for mission 17-15.
