Eminent theologian and global ecumenical leader Cardinal Walter Kasper discusses the God question—whether God is a reality and how we speak about this reality in humanitys continuing quest for meaning and security in life.

Kasper, president of the Vaticans Pontifical Council for the Promotion of Christian Unity, presented this lecture at Emory on March  2, 2010. Emory's Candler School of Theology sponsored the cardinals visit with Emory's Aquinas Center of Theology, with additional support from The Halle Institute.
