Creation/evolution debate at Portland State University on Tue. 1-13-15 ("Which Best Explains Man's Origin, Creation or Evolution?")

Bernie Dehler will be debating Dr. Bart Rask at Portland State University on Tue. 1-13-15, on the topic "Which Best Explains Man's Origin, Creation or Evolution?"  Details for the event can be found here: http://www.meetup.com/Philosophical-Naturalists/events/198424952/ .  The event, and parking, is free.

How did humans come to be?  Did we evolve from other animals, or were humans made by a special creation act from a God?  Bart Rask, M/D., is also an author and will argue for a creationist perspective.  Bernie Dehler is an atheist and will argue for an evolutionary explanation.  Listen to each side make their short presentations, confront each other, then engage with the audience in extensive Q&A time.  The event will be videotaped and shown on this YouTube channel: http://tinyurl.com/pcz2ak5 .
