ISC Friday Night Fellowship: What is Science?

October 7, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Hello, friends!  We’re looking forward to having you join us on Friday night.  Come for dinner at the Wesley House and discuss What is Science?.

Dinner begins at 6:30pmHere is this week’s menu:

Sausage and Zucchini Pasta
Broccoli Salad
Bread


Dessert - Hatch Green Chile Apple Cobbler (Tim says this is his favorite dessert ever, so you won’t want to miss it!)

This week we’re happy to have a guest speaker!  Dr. Robb Wilson will be discussing What is Science? 

Dr. Wilson will address the fundamental questions of what is science, its limits, assumptions, types of proof and common errors by scientists and layfolk.  He’ll also answer some questions submitted by members of ISC.  Dr. Wilson is a native Texan who earned a BS in Chemistry from UT, an MS and PhD in Chemistry from the University of Michigan. He was an assistant professor of chemistry at Louisiana State University in Shreveport, then worked for a consulting firm in Austin where he served as a contractor in Baghdad for two months, before going on his own for two years and then coming to UT as a lecturer to direct the Physical Chemistry Laboratories three years ago. He is a Christian and is currently involved with Hill House campus ministry and the Christian Faculty Network, and is a member at the First Evangelical Free Church (where Cliff, Tim, and Courtney also are members). In college, he studied Russian, and spent a summer in Siberia, and after grad school spent five weeks in the British Isles. He is passionate about developing critical thinking in Christians so that they can both intelligently and compassionately engage their culture.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Also mark your calendars for Saturday, October 31 – Sunday, November 1.  We are planning an Inks Lake Camping Getaway, and everyone is invited to join us.  The cost is only $3 per person (that’s less than a cup of Starbucks :-) ).  Sign up and pay your $3 to reserve your spot.
