Philosophy and Popular Culture

Catalog description

What is really real? What does it mean to be human? Does the physical world still matter in a digital age? This course explores these questions and more. Students will consider Christian and non-Christian approaches to worldview questions about reality and existence. Material, spiritual, intellectual, and virtual worlds and humanity's relationship with each will be explored. As part of the IWU Humanities Core, this course emphasizes the Christian call to love God and neighbor. Prerequisite: THE-101 or HNR-170.
