Atheism & Morality: Mapping the Game with Andrew Dennis

Andrew Dennis’s talk focuses on the issues resulting from an atheist worldview. He starts by introducing a custom-made framework that utilizes game theory to identify and analyze players in what he calls “The Values Game.” He then divides the concept of atheism into three components and uses this stratification to explain how conversations in atheist spaces get derailed.

By the end, attendees should be able to:

• Maintain a new and intuitive understanding of human moral development
• Grasp the generalized history of how we got to where we are
• Understand the pitfalls that activist groups fall into
• Improve their own activism, general understanding of reality, and conversations with others
