Darwin Day 2016: Is It Science vs. Religion or Something Else?

Lifelong, 119 W Court St, Ithaca, NY 14850 (map)

5:30pm – 7:00pm (Dinner)

7:00pm – 8:30pm (Program)

Historically, the theory of evolution has encountered a great deal of resistance, much of it from people professing to be deeply religious. It is easy to cast the problem as science vs. religion, but that approach unnecessarily builds a wall between religious belief and scientific thought. We will examine and discuss what is really behind the repeated conflicts between science and the societies in which operates.

Program FREE and open to all.

For Dinner and Childcare, RSVP to programs@kolhaverim.net by Feb 11. Cost: Members – free, Guests – $10/Adult, $5/Child, $20/Family.
