SUMMARY:FFRFMCC 2017 Darwin Day Celebration
DESCRIPTION:February 12th\, 2017 will mark the 208th anniversary of the birth of Charles Darwin.  His five-year voyage on the HMS Beagle in 1831 led to his work on the theory of evolution\, which is now fact\, and the publishing of his book\, “On the Origin of Species.”  Despite his Christian upbringing\, his father’s desire he become a parson\, and marrying devout Christian Emma Wedgwood (his cousin)\, Darwin bravely sought to challenge the biblical notions of creation\, and forever changing our understanding of the natural world. \nDarwin’s contributions to science are enormous\, and although our federal government has still yet to officially recognize Darwin’s accomplishments\, those of us who truly understand the importance of his work\, can recognize him. \nIn co-sponsorship this year with the Chicago Atheist Society\, the FFRFMCC will hold its 5th annual Darwin Day celebration to honor this great man.  Please join us as we gather for a viewing of two segments from Richard Dawkins’ outstanding documentary\, “The Genius of Charles Darwin.  The film will last approximately 1 and 1 /2 hours\, and will be followed by a dinner buffet and social gathering. \nAll who would like to attend this celebration of the life of Charles Darwin can click here to reserve their spot on our Doodle poll.   The reservation deadline for this event will be Thursday\, February\, 9th\, 2017. \nCost:  $10 suggested donation \n\nTweet
