DEBATE: Intelligent Design...Should it be taught in science classrooms?

The last of our series of debates on topics dealing with the intersection of religion and the law will be this Thursday. The debate will feature Chapman Professor Ron Steiner (arguing that I.D. should NOT be taught in science courses) and attorney Chris Arledge (arguing in favor of including I.D.). The second issue of The Chapman Federalist features two very well argued articles on intelligent design, one on each side of the debate. I highly recommend reading the copy I placed in your mailbox before going to the debate.

WHAT: Debate on Intelligent Design
WHEN: March 16 @ 7pm
WHERE: Room 237A
