Secular Humanism and its
Discontents
Sunday, Jan. 18
11 a.m. in Hollywood; 4:30 in Costa Mesa*
What is secular humanism? What are its
objectives? What is its importance? Why should one support it? Why are
camparatively small numbers of the nonreligious actively involved in the secular
humanist movement? These are some of the provocative and fundamental questions
that will be addressed by Ronald A. Lindsay as he provides an unsparing review
of the state of secular humanism today - and issues a rousing call to arms. Dr.
Lindsay demonstrates the critical significance of the secular perspective,
especially as it relates to public policy.
A secular approach to public
policy is cogently set forth in Dr. Lindsay's recently published book, Future
Bioethics: Overcoming Taboos, Myths, and Dogmas. Copies of the book will be
available for sale and signing after the talk.
Lindsay is the new chief
executive officer of the Center for Inquiry.
$8, or free for Friends of the
Center.
*This lecture will be repeated at 4:30 pm at the Costa
Mesa Community Center at 1845 Park Ave.
$4 for students.
