Did God create hell? Does divine justice require that there be a hell? Does divine love require that God triumph over all evil (so that there is no hell)? Do the saints in heaven have free will? If they do, why do they not sin? How should we think about heaven, after all?
Professor Mark McLeod-Harrison is offering a philosophical examination of the notions of heaven and hell, PHIL 285/485, during the fall 2015 semester.
Questions? Please contact Paula Hampton at phampton@georgefox.edu.

Don’t forget to come out and support our theatre students at this spring’s drama presentation of These Shining Lives, written by Melanie Marnich and directed by Rhett Luedtke.
Performances are in Wood-Mar Auditorium on April 9-12 and April 16-19. All performances begin at 7:30 p.m. with the exception of the two Sunday shows, scheduled as 2 p.m. matinees.
Synopsis: Marnich’s poetic tale of the women who worked for Radium Dial Company in Ottawa, Ill., in the 1920s and ’30s is deeply moving, wistful and beautifully tragic. Inspired by actual people and real events, These Shining Lives chronicles the lives of four women who refuse to allow a company more concerned with profit than safety to silence their voices. Join us as we remember our collective past, reflect on the present and dream of a better future.
Tickets are $6 for students, or free for students on April 9 and 16. Employees are entitled to one complimentary ticket. Additional tickets are $12 for adults, $8 for seniors 65 or older, and $6 for children under 12. All tickets can be ordered at theatre.georgefox.edu.
