Eddie Tabash:
The True Meaning of Separation of Church and State
 
Sunday, May 7, 2006
11 a.m.
     Has the U.S. government become more religious in the past several years? Do certain theological positions enjoy greater state support than other positions, or those of non-believers? How is Jefferson's "Wall of Separation" holding up to recent assaults on the First Amendment?

     Eddie Tabash, a constitutional lawyer, chair of the Center for Inquiry-West, and chair of the national legal committee of Americans United for Separation of Church and State, will address the convergence of religion and government in the United States, and discuss the future of our secular government.

     Eddie has publicly debated many of the top international theologians, and has been a tireless activist for both civil rights and secular causes.

The God Who Wasn’t There
on Easter Sunday

Screening and Q&A with filmmaker Brian Flemming
 
Sunday, April 16, 2006
11 am in Hollywood
4:30 pm in Costa Mesa
*
 

     Celebrate the resurrection of Jesus by viewing a documentary that makes the case that he never existed. In his controversial one-hour documentary, filmmaker Brian Flemming argues with the help of biblical scholars, philosophers and historians that an actual man named Jesus may be a composite of earlier stories and traditions.

     Among others, award-winning author Sam Harris (End of Faith), Jesus Seminarian Robert Price (Deconstructing Jesus),  and historian Richard Carrier contribute to the idea that Christianity may rest on a life that never was.

A Q&A with Flemming will follow the one-hour screening. DVDs will be available at the event. The public is invited. http://www.thegodmovie.com.

*Brian Flemming will be at the Hollywood screening only.

The Costa Mesa Community Center is located at
1845 Park Avenue, Costa Mesa, California.

CFI-West's 1st and 3rd Sunday Lecture Series presents

Robert Price

 Sabbatai Sevi:
A Seventeenth-Century Jesus

Sunday, March 19, 2006

11 a.m. in Hollywood
4:30 p.m. in Costa Mesa
 
Sabbatai Sevi was a very popular messiah in the 1600s who abandoned his religion at the last minute, converting to Islam himself instead of converting the Turkish sultan to Judaism as he had boasted.  Sevi’s life eerily parallels that of the crucified Jesus and the evolution of early Christianity. By examining the story of Sabbatai Sevi, much light can be shed on Jesus and the development of Western religion.

Bringing this story to light is author Robert M. Price, Professor of Biblical Criticism at the Center for Inquiry Institute and the editor of The Journal of Higher Criticism.  His books include The Empty Tomb, Deconstructing Jesus, The Incredible Shrinking Son of Man,  and The Da Vinci Fraud.   Price is also Professor of Theology and Scriptural Studies at the Johnnie Coleman Theological Seminary in Florida.

 Chiropractic:
A Century of Pseudoscience and Salesmanship

Sunday, March 5, 2006

     Conventional chiropractic is a confused pseudoscience that attracts non-discerning customers and students just as surely do supermarket tabloids, astrologers, palm readers and psychics.  Don Paulin, who directs the Victims of Chiropractic outreach and is a member of the National Council Against Health Fraud, will examine the status of chiropractic and illustrate his talk with videos. 

     Paulin received the 2002 William T. Jarvis, Ph.D. Distinguished Service Award for his work with the Orange County Nutrition Alert Coalition.  His Victims of Chiropractic information can be found at www.chirobase.org.

Sunday, February 12

-12:01 am through 5 pm; reception to follow-

     On the 197th anniversary of the birth of Charles Darwin, CFI-West will sponsor a party celebrating the father of the Theory of Evolution.

Readers and audience are invited to float in and out all through the night and day of Darwin's birthday. The book is expected to take about 16 hours to read aloud.

     The reading will culminate with celebrities and science notables finishing the book sometime between 3:30 and 5pm on Sunday, February 12.

Stay for the reception to see a couple of  live exotic animals, and to have a piece of birthday cake!

     The Da Vinci Code is a runaway bestseller and a forthcoming movie. This "factual novel" purports to reveal "the greatest conspiracy of the past 2000 years."

Alan Harris


Disaster! From 9-11 to Katrina to Killer Asteroids
A skeptical look at how we respond to hazards, natural and unnatural

Sunday, December 4, 2005

11 a.m
.

     Following the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, billions of dollars have been spent, and our freedoms limited in sometimes major ways, presumably to provide us with a more secure homeland environment.  But are we more secure?  The events following the hurricane Katrina destruction of New Orleans suggests that in a broad perspective, we are not.  Risks come in many flavors.  With only limited resources available, we must not over-attend to one risk while ignoring others.  After examining rational and irrational responses to terrorism, tsunamis, hurricanes and other hazards, Alan Harris will examine the ultimate natural hazard, the risk of global disaster from an asteroid impact, and ask what should, and should not, be done in response to that risk.

     Alan W. Harris received a Ph.D. from UCLA in 1975, and spent 28 years at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.  He now continues research in planetary science from his home, in affiliation with the Space Science Institute of Boulder, CO.  For more than a decade he has concentrated on evaluating the hazard of impacts from an asteroid or comet, and appropriate societal responses.  In 2002 he co-authored, along with Clark Chapman, "A Skeptical look at 9-11", which appeared as the cover feature in the September-October issue of the Skeptical Inquirer.

Jonathan Kirsch

God Against the Gods:
The Pagan Roots of Religious Liberty in America

Sunday, Nov. 20, 2005

11 a.m.
in Hollywood only
 


     Author Jonathan Kirsch will illuminate how the religious tolerance of paganism influenced religious liberty in America as he explores the final struggle between polytheism and monotheism during the 4th century in the Roman Empire.

     Based on his brilliant and controversial book, God Against the Gods: The History of the War Between Monotheism and Polytheism, Kirsch will discuss the dark side of monotheism and the bright side of polytheism and show how terrorism today is rooted in monotheistic traditions. Focusing on the fascinating battles between two Roman emperors – Constantine, who started the Christian revolution, and Julian, who attempted to restore paganism – Kirsch will show how we need to understand that struggle to appreciate how religious intolerance arose in the ancient world.

     Kirsch, who lives in Los Angeles, is the author of 10 books, including the critically acclaimed Harlot by the Side of the Road: Forbidden Tales of the Bible; Moses: A Life, and The Woman Who Laughed at God: The Untold History of the Jewish People.  Kirsch is also a book columnist for the Los Angeles Times; a guest host and commentator for NPR affiliates KCRW-FM and KPCC-FM in Southern California; a member of the National Book Critics Circle; three-time past president of PEN Center USA West, and an attorney specializing in intellectual property and publishing law in Los Angeles. His Web site is www.jonathankirsch.com.

M.G. Lord

Love and Rockets:
The Dark Side of
The Space Program
 
Sunday, Oct. 16, 2005

11 a.m. in Hollywood
4:30 p.m. in Costa Mesa
     At first glance, M.G. Lord, author of the critically acclaimed Forever Barbie: The Unauthorized Biography of a Real Doll,  would seem an unlikely choice to write a cultural history of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena.  But her recent memoir, Astro Turf: The Private Life of Rocket Science, does just that--exploring the darker side of glory rides to the moon and Mars through the lens of her father, an aerospace engineer at JPL.  Where Barbie looked at an icon of "feminine" culture, Astro Turf looks at a totem of masculinity, the lid-century Rocket Scientist, and his descendents, some of whom are women.
 
     Lord will talk about politics and gender in the heyday of the space race--the rise of Nazi scientists, the fall of JPL's leftwing pioneers, and the battle of women engineers for a place in the control room.  Lord, who lives in Los Angeles, is a regular contributor to the New York Times Book Review and "Arts & Leisure" section.
     Copies of her books will be available at the lectures.

Dr. Miriam Cotler

Schiavo, Stem Cells, and Medical Ethics
 
Sunday, October 2

11 a.m. in Hollywood
 
     To the chagrin of scientists, physicians, and many members of the community, politicians have taken strong positions on the Terry Schiavo case and on stem cell research. Personal religious and moral considerations have entered into the discussion about how to handle medical and research issues. How do we make these kinds of decisions? How should we make these decisions?
 
      Medical Ethicist Dr. Miriam Cotler received her M.S.and Ph.D. in public health from UCLA, and is currently a visiting porfessor of public health there. She also directs the Center for Health Ethics and Policy at California State University at Northridge, and consults for several hospitals and the California Medical Association Medical Ethics Advisory Council. Please join us for this eye-opening look at deciding right from wrong in the medical world.

Space and Spirit

Sunday,September 18

11 a.m.

     Wertheim is a science writer whose articles have appeared in many newspapers and magazines, including the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, and Science Digest.  She also currently is a science columnist for the L.A. Weekly, author of the book Pythagoras' Trousers: God, Physics, and the Gender Wars, a TV documentary writer, and a lecturer about science and society.

The God Who Wasn’t There
Film Showing and Discussion
 
Sunday, August 21, 2005
11 a.m. at CFI-West
4:30 p.m. in Costa Mesa

     Brian Flemming will show his hour-long documentary film, The God Who Wasn’t There, and discuss its no-holds-barred criticism of Christianity and religious believers. A former Christian fundamentalist, Flemming interviews such luminaries as author Sam Harris (The End of Faith) and scholar Robert M. Price (The Incredible Shrinking Son of Man). The movie examines the questionable historicity of Jesus, the inhumanity of Christian doctrine and the existence of God.

     "Provocative -- to put it mildly," said the Los Angeles Times about The God Who Wasn't There when it played at the Grassroots Cinema Festival. Flemming will have DVDs of the film available at the showing. The movie’s Web site is http://www.thegodmovie.com.

Dr. Ronald H. Pine

The Clash In Kansas:
Science vs. Religion

A Report from the Front

Sunday, August 7, 2005 11 a.m.

    The Kansas State Board of Education is again in turmoil over whether to teach Intelligent Design in the state's public schools.  This political battle pits the majority of those who approve the science curriculum against a scientific community that sees no reason to compromise the teaching of evolution.  Since 55% of the state has doubts about evolution, why shouldn't both ideas be taught?  Indeed, how does evolution really work, and why do scientists subscribe to it?

     Dr. Ronald H. Pine will travel to Los Angeles from Lawrence, Kansas, to report on not only what's happening in Kansas but also why evolution itself is such a strong theory.  He will talk about the overwhelming evidence for evolution and will discuss the history and philosophy of creationist pseudoscience, including its most recent manifestation, "Intelligent Design."

    Dr. Pine has a B.A. in zoology from the University of Kansas, an M.S. in zoology from the University of Michigan, and a Ph.D. in wildlife science from Texas A&M University. He has served as a curator at the Smithsonian, a college professor, Instructor and Resident Scientist at the Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy. Dr. Pine has led or otherwise participated in numerous scientific expeditions to five continents and various islands, and has over sixty scientific publications, including one co-authored book, primarily on the classification, biogeography, and ecology of mammals. For years, he has had an intense interest in pseudoscience, especially in young earth creationism and intelligent design creationism, and has published on and given many talks on the subject. Dr. Pine has now returned to live in his home state of Kansas, the current hotbed in the creationists’ political push to dilute and pervert science education.

The Truth About Psychic Sleuths
 
Sunday, June 5, 2005

     Are these psychic sleuths really solving cases? Do the police go to them for help? Find out as Independent Investigations Group members Owen Hammer, Sherri Andrews and Jim Underdown uncover the results of a lengthy investigation into two nationally-known psychic detectives, Carla Baron (Court TV) and Allison DuBois (Medium).

Scientology Exposed!

Tory Christman

Sunday, March 6, 2005 11:00 a.m.

     From the lips of Church of Scientology defector Tory Christman, you will hear some of the much-criticized religion's most closely guarded secrets.

Tory was a 30-year veteran and a member of their shadowy Office of Special Affairs where she headed what was known as the Parishioners League, where she pressured television, radio, and newspapers to drop negative content about the church. Tory finally awoke about 4 years ago and realized the true nature of the organization. She now spends much of her time trying to educate people about the dangers of becoming involved in cults.

Alan Fiske

Natural Moralities

April 17, 2005 11:00 a.m.

     Is divine will the only source of morality--or even the ultimate source? If not, what makes humans moral animals? Cultural anthropology shows that moralities differ in innumerable details, but under this cultural diversity, we can see that all morality is based on four innate intuitions. All human morality is grounded on communality, authority, equality, and proportionality. The basic intuitions are (1) that people should care about each other and act compassionately; (2) that people should respect authority while authorities protect the people they are responsible for; (3) that people should be treated equally and respond reciprocally; and (4) that justice should be based on proportionality, both in rewards and punishment.

     Alan Page Fiske is Professor, Department of Anthropology at UCLA, and Director of the Center for Culture, Brain, and Development. Please join us for this fascinating look at the nature of morality.
