Thursday 12 September: 7 to 9 pm at the White Rock Hotel as usual
Stephen Milton presents a video update on the
activities of the 'New Atheists'
in particular Richard Dawkins and A. C. Grayling.
update:
At the last meeting when we were discussing books there was a
lot of interest in the works of A. C. Grayling and Richard Dawkins, so for this
month’s meeting I have chosen several of their speeches from the internet for us
to listen to and discuss. They are two of the most fluent , knowledgeable and
enthusiastic advocates of atheism and humanism, both from the philosophical and
scientific points of view. I can assure you that they are thought provoking and I have
no doubt will generate the normal interest and debate.
In addition, as a topical question, let’s take 15 minutes to
discuss the Syria question. Do we support intervention or not?
