A few weeks ago, I introduced you to the Veritas Forum, and our quest to establish Veritas at Tulane with the hope of kicking off our first go 'round with Dr. Francis Collins, director of the Human Genome Project and author of The Language of God.
Yesterday, I heard the exciting news that Dr. Collins has agreed to come to Tulane with the Veritas Forum, and has confirmed the date of Thursday, Jan 22nd 2009! Praise God!
There is still lots of work to do in planning, publicizing, PRAYING, and fund raising. If you would like to give to support the Veritas Forum at Tulane, please drop me a line.
We believe this will be a divine appointment for students and faculty: for those struggling with their faith in Christ in an antagonistically secular academic environment to be encouraged in the reasonableness of faith, and for those unsure or even opposed to faith in Christ based on intellectual reasons to have an opportunity to ask honest questions and receive honest answers.
