While doing some research for the sciency-Big-Ideas class I'm helping out with at Berkeley, I came across this article: "Does Quantum Mechanics Make it Easier to Believe in God?".
The site it's on is pretty cool at first glance. In its own words:
Big Questions Online aims to explore Big Questions of human purpose and ultimate reality and to foster thoughtful discussion of those topics. We feature essays by leading thinkers and writers and invite you, the readers, to join in an author-led discussion
There are topics on machines becoming human, on Turing, on ethics, on all kinds of cool stuff that might be fun to talk about in a classroom. Check it out!
