Philosopher Tim Mulgan explores a third way between materialist atheism and the benevolent to God of the Abrahamic faiths. He discusses the concept of purpose in the universe, the disconnect between arguments for and against God's existence, the practical differences of believing in a cosmic purpose, confronting nihilism in atheism, future plans and obligations, and explores connections between Hinduism, Taoism, and Stoicism.
