Synopsis of Presentation

God and Biological Evolution: Some Significant Concerns

From Iran to Israel to the United States and Canada, proponents of supernaturalism attempt to infiltrate the naturalistic casual model of science and science education at numerous levels. We will explore incidences that have occurred this year and in the recent past. The pseudoscience of creationism in its various forms, and more general religious claims of supernatural causation over scientific casual claims, will be presented. We will also have some respectful fun with the amusement created by “both sides.”
