Today is the last day of Rationalist Week 2009.
For those that have missed the festivities so far, there are still plenty of events left for you to attend. Today’s line up looks like this:
12noon – Where do atheists get their morals?
2pm – How to have better sex
4pm – Breaking the superstitions
7pm – Mike Lake on Active Atheists
9pm – Student Stories
10pm – All night debate
As you can see, there is still plenty of things to get excited about.
I am sure that those involved with Rationalist Week will be sharing their views and stories with you on the blog in the coming week, but I would just like to mention a few of my personal highlights.
The highlight of the week for me was our inaugural debate with the Islamic Society. Debating the merits of theism versus atheism, we managed to explore the ideas of infinity and an unlimited universe. Unfortunately, the Islamic speaker sank to personal insult and offence as the arguments escaped him. The event was a success thougha nd was attended by RW ’09s first capacity crowd.
Other highlights included the CU debate, fast becoming an annual tradition of Rationalist Weeks, and the numerous live bands throughout the week.
