An interesting conference on Evolution and God: 150 years of love and war between science and religion will be held on October 15-17, 2004
at the Strosacker Auditorium of the Case Western Reserve University
Darwin’s revolution was not limited to the scientific world. It reverberates to this day in theology, philosophy and politics. As a result, in America today, people hear more about evolution from evangelists preaching against it, than they do from their high school teachers. This highly charged political nexus has delivered a false impression about the history of evolutionary theory and its interactions with walks of life outside the scientific world. This conference is committed to achieving a more accurate historical understanding of these issues among historians and philosophers, and bringing that view directly to the public.

Great thing happening in my backyard - in my town! Moderator may email me for my contact details. I live close to school and would love to spend time with the Gurus of PT. Welcome to Case and Cleveland!
Really good work. I found a lot of profound information which can help me to go on. Thanks for all this input.
I Believe Darwin Is Right on Track With Where We Came From. The Question Remains Where Do We Go? I ACTUALLY Believe that Christianity Has The Right Goals of Where We Want To Be! Can We Evolve Into God Or Gods If We Do The Right Things
Once again, I wish someone would write a Firefox extension which would take capitalized words, and normal-case them. Somehow, a large percentage of the public can’t grasp that there’s no need to capitalize for emphasis if the writing is good. Take a look at the following excerpt from Darwin’s autobiography:
Now contrast that with an emphasized version:
See how crappy that is?
