Randal’s blogpost for this event

Daniel Loxton is a Canadian author, who wrote a kids evolution book (Evolution: How We and All Living Things Came to Be) and published it in Canada last year. I’ve read it (you can borrow it from the library) and it’s beautifully illustrated and straight forward. There’s a small blurb for “ask your parents about religion”, but other than that, it’s all science.

The Globe and Mail just printed an article about how it’s too controversial for US publishers. I guess science is scarier than teen pregnancy to the right-wing Christians down south, but it’s nice to see that in Canada, this book is getting the recognition it deserves.

Can Atheists Be Trusted?   Join us with guest speaker Randal Rauser as we discuss the prejudices that atheists face in our culture and our communities.

Tuesday, June 7th, 2011 7:00pm to 9:00pm in room 6-7 at the Stanley A. Milner Library downtown.

Randal Rauser is an Associate Professor of Historical Theology at Taylor Seminary in Edmonton and author most recently of “You’re Not As Crazy As I Think: Dialogue in a World of Loud Voices and Hardened Opinions”.  Join us afterward at The Elephant and Castle in City Center mall for more intimate discussion about this and other topics. Here is a link to the blog entry that started this whole conversation…
