This lecture discusses key ideas from the mid-20th century symposium on falsification and theology called the "University Discussion" which can be found in the volume New Essays in Philosophical Theology It focuses specifically on a third parable, the agent who the resistance fighter meets, that Mitchell offers as an analogy to what goes on with religious believers when they encounter situations that suggest that there either is no God or that God does not care sufficiently about human suffering.
