It's time for the March meeting of the Fayetteville Freethinkers. This
month our main feature will be very topical. Holy Week, culminating
with Easter Sunday, has just passed, and many people affirmed the
resurrection of Jesus in churches all across the world.
But is there good evidence that Jesus rose from the dead? What is the
state of modern scholarship on this issue? Doug Krueger will give a
Powerpoint presentation on this topic detailing the evidence for the
resurrection. Feel free to convert either way when he is done. Plans
are to videotape this so it can be played on local access cable and
distributed via DVD.
Other topics will include a short presentation on the book
"Freethinkers: A History of American Secularism" written by Susan
Jacoby. Gail is traveling from Eureka Springs to give this
presentation.
Greg, our resident expert on minister Fred Phelps and the "God hates
fags" bunch out of Kansas will fill us in on their latest antics before
introducing the video documentary "Fall from Grace." (71 min)
That's not all, there's more. But you will have to come to the meeting
to see it.
