Perspectives on intelligent design theory will be explored at Lifetree Café at noon on Monday, Dec. 12.

The program, titled, “In the Beginning… An Atheist Professor Considers Intelligent Design,” features a filmed interview with Dr. Bradley Monton, a former philosophy of physics professor and self-professed atheist. Dr. Monton’s controversial view on the plausibility of intelligent design has brought criticism from the academic and atheist communities.

“I’m an atheist ultimately, and I don’t think that God exists,” Monton says. “But I’m not certain of my atheism, and intelligent design arguments make me less certain.”

During the program, participants will have an opportunity to discuss the plausibility of several intelligent design theories.

Admission to the 60-minute event is free. Lifetree Café is located at Kokanee Coffee, 509 N. Fifth Ave., Sandpoint.
