Darwinism and Intelligent Design: A Dinner and Discussion
John Durant
Wed Jan 30, 06:30-08:15pm, W11-190

Enrollment limited: advance sign up required (see contact below)
Signup by: 25-Jan-2008
Limited to 50 participants.
Single session event

Darwin's contemporaries struggled to reconcile the theory of evolution by natural selection with religious faith. Today, many people still struggle with the same issue. What have we learned about the relationship between Darwinism and 'Intelligent Design' in the century and a half since the first publication of the Origin of Species? This discussion will provide a context for the staging of 'Re:Design', a play based on the correspondence between Charles Darwin and Harvard botanist Asa Gray, at MIT on February 14th and 15th. Free dinner before the discussion begins.

Get your new year off to a good start with an hour of singing your favorite hymns and discovering others' favorites. We'll have hymnals from lots of Christian traditions available, and our pianist will support our song. If you have a hymn to suggest that probably isn't in the hymnals, contact me ahead of time. Stay for hearty (free!) dinner afterwards.
