A footnote to Dan Barker's visit to Vandalville -

 

Dan Barker debated Doug Wilson at the University of Delaware campus in 1997
concerning the question:

 

Does the Triune God live?

 

Take care, Moscow.

Subject: [Vision2020] Government & Religion Debate

 

I thought some of you might be interested:

I just came across some information on a debate coming up this Tues (18th),
7pm, SUB ballroom, U of I.  Here it is:

 

Resolved: Why Religion and Government Should be Strictly Separate.

 

Dan Barker is affirming.  His biographical information is interesting:

Dan Barker is co-president of the Freedom From Religion Foundation. A former
minister and evangelist, Dan became a freethinker in 1983. His books, Just
Pretend: A Freethought Book for Children and Losing Faith in Faith: From
Preacher To Atheist are published by the Foundation. A graduate of Azusa
Pacific University with a degree in Religion, Dan now puts his knowledge of
Christianity to effective freethought use. A professional pianist and
composer, Dan performs freethought concerts and is featured in the
Foundation's musical cassettes, "My Thoughts Are Free," "Reason's
Greetings," "Dan Barker Salutes Freethought Then And Now," a 2-CD album
"Friendly Neighborhood Atheist," and the new CD "Beware of Dogma." He joined
the Foundation staff in 1987 and served as public relations director. He was
elected co-president in November 2004. 

 

Doug Wilson will be 'non-affirming.'

 

thanks
