S1:E6 | Ethics | George Ellis | Genexis 2019

Where do 'right' and 'wrong' come from? Does objective morality exist; Is 'wrong' always wrong? Where could objective morality come from? Does a purely materialistic worldview allow for objective morality? What - if anything - is at stake?

In the sixth film from Genexis 2019, Prof George Ellis explores the historical evidence for the seemingly implausible proposition that 2000 years ago a maverick preacher from Nazareth in Palestine died but then lived to tell the tale.

Genexis is a series of talks by world leading scientists and academics presenting simple evidence for a creator.
