• Thursday Night at Peace and Justice Center, 7:00PM: Paul Burks will present the DVD, "Celebrating Evolution" featuring these themes: Bridging Diversity; Trusting the Universe; Our Continental Story; We Are Made of Stardust; and Death Through Deep-Time Eyes. Noted Eco-geologian Brian Swimme says of this series: "Connie and Michael Dowd are gifted troubadours who celebrate the new evolutionary epic." Scientist Robert Wright says: "Religion, or spirituality, has always evolved, and Connie Barlow and Michael Dowd are on the frontier of its current evolution. They're committed to the proposition that science, far from stripping the universe of meaning, reveals new layers of meaning." For information call 575-8902.
