Upcoming public talk

Any readers in Arizona may be interested in the following upcoming public lecture that I will be giving on Tuesday, March 28:

Twenty Years A-Growing: Creationism Since Edwards v. Aguillard
Sponsored by ASU's Secular Freethought Society

In 1986 the Supreme Court effectively killed off "scientific creationism" with its decision in Edwards v Aguillard. Undaunted, supporters morphed into the "Intelligent Design Movement," a group which itself has received a significant setback in the recent Kitzmiller v Dover decision. This talk will examine the twenty-year development of ID, particularly highlighting the movement's interest in "cultural renewal," and its place in the broader culture wars of the past decades.
