The Northern Viriginia Ethical Society (NoVES) holds weekly "platform meetings" on various topics, and there is one coming up soon that may be of particular interest to Alliance for Science members and friends. The title is "The Evolution of Creationism" and it's coming up just before Darwin's birthday (Happy 199th, Chuck!). Jone Johnson Lewis, Leader of the NoVES will be the speaker. The following description was supplied by NoVES:
Each time creationism is defeated in its attempts to keep young students from learning about evolution, creationists figure out a new way of presenting or advocating for their position. In honor of Darwin Day, Jone will take us on a quick tour of creationist thinking and how it has evolved. We tend to think of the disagreement as between a new theory (evolution) and the age-old, Biblically-grounded theory of special creation -- yet the latter theory continues to grow and evolve, and its advocates adopt tactics in response to the successes of science.
Directions and other information available at the Northern Virginia Ethical Society website.
