Edinburgh Skeptics in The Pub 19th Nov
Stuart Richie and Dr Marc Surtees debate Evolution and Creation in the Pub. The event will be held in the Newsroom pub on Leith Street (map).
This year marks two very special Darwin occassions. The first is his 200th birthday in February, the second event is even greater- in November we will celebrate 150 years since Darwin’s book, “On the Origin of the Species” was published.This book revolutionised the world and sent the creationist groups (temporarily) running for cover.
To mark this great event, SitP will be holding a debate to discuss Evolution in the 21st Century as well as the other side.
Edinburgh University Humanist Stuart Ritchie will be defending Evolution. His opponent is zoologist Dr. Marc Surtees a member of the Edinburgh Creation Group.
The two met earlier in the year and a great debate it was too. We hope the rematch will be just as lively.
