Letter from The President 2. Summer Session 2003 at the Center for Inquiry 3. CFA Staff to visit numerous campuses during Spring 2003 4. Events Calendar -------------------------------------------------- 1. Letter from the President Dear Campus Freethought Alliance Members, Some exciting events are coming up for CFA in the weeks and months ahead, but before getting to them, I'd like to give you a quick report on the conference a few weekends ago in Washington, D.C. entitled "One Nation Without God? Secularism, Society, and Justice." Along with many special CFA events and secular humanist organizing sessions, Julia Sweeney of Saturday Night Live performed her new monologue on her road to nonbelief, Christopher Hitchens eloquently spoke on why secular humanist activism is important, and there were sessions on gay rights and religious extremism, religious threats to academic freedom, and other important issues. It was a great time, and I look forward to the next conference. I hope to see you all there. A major event to look forward to is the Center for Inquiry Summer Session this July in upstate New York. The two courses offered this summer are "Psychology of Belief" and "Reason and Ethics" with some of the leading scholars in those fields teaching the session. I strongly encourage all CFA members to attend. Transferable undergraduate credits, as well as a limited number of assistantships, are available. Read the description below for details. Lastly, I'd like to mention two major CFA events planned this week in the Maryland-Washington D.C. area. The first is tomorrow night (Wednesday, April 23), when CFA director DJ Grothe will be debating best-selling Christian author David Noebel at Georgetown University on whether "secular humanism is the state-supported religion of America's public schools," as Noebel asserts in his Christian activist training videos and Christian college textbooks. Also, on Thursday night CFA is hosting a campus-wide debate at Johns Hopkins University between Harvard's Rich Halvorson and DJ Grothe on secularism vs. religion. Both of these events are free and open to the public, so if you are in the area, I encourage you to attend. As always, do not hesitate to contact CFA if we can be of any assistance. In reason, Debbie Goddard Temple University president@campusfreethought.org 2. Summer Session 2003 at the Center for Inquiry This July, join a distinguished faculty and an international student body for two stimulating weeks at the Center for Inquiry, one of the world's leading institutions dedicated to critical inquiry and the scientific outlook. Conduct research using the Center's 34,000+ volume libraries. Take in the sights of Upstate New York and Southern Ontario in summer. The main summer session takes place July 6-20 in Amherst, New York, and features two-week intensive courses in Psychology of Belief and in Reason and Ethics (NOW AVAILABLE FOR TRANSFERABLE UNDERGRADUATE CREDIT THROUGH STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK), as well as sporting and outdoor activities, Philosophy Café, music and award-winning magic performances, and an all-expenses-paid excursion to the acclaimed Shaw Festival in Ontario, Canada. Faculty include psychologist and skeptical investigator Barry Beyerstein, of Simon Frasier University; parapsychologist and science popularizer Richard Wiseman, of the University of Hertfordshire, UK; philosopher and public intellectual Paul Kurtz, of SUNY-Buffalo; and distinguished ethicist and Nietzsche scholar Robert Solomon, of University of Texas, Austin. Assistantships available. APPLICATION DEADLINE May 30, 2003. More information and forms at www.centerforinquiry.net/summer2003.htm 3. CFA Staff to visit numerous campuses during Spring 2003 May 3-7 CFA representatives visit the Phoenix, AZ region, including campuses such as University of Arizona and Arizona State University, presenting New Religious Threats to Academic Freedom.

The Campus Freethought Alliance and the Council for Secular Humanism is urging all secularists and humanists to act now using our new Congressional action alert on some new attempts to sneak religious indoctrination back into public schools: The first, the "Moment of Quiet Reflection in Schools Act" [H.R. 1202, sponsored by David Scott (D-GA), and S.591, sponsored by Zell Miller (D-GA)] calls for teachers to conduct a "brief period of quiet reflection" with the participation of all the students assembled in the classroom. The proposed Act goes on to state that this should not be construed as prayer or religious activities but rather an opportunity for a moment of silent reflection. Even if one were to accept the explanation of "a moment of silent reflection," one should realize that taxpayers would be paying money for teachers and students alike to do nothing but remain silent for up to a minute a day. The second, the "Religious Freedom Restoration Act," H.R. 1547, introduced by Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) seeks to remove "religious freedom-related cases" from the jurisdictions of all U.S. District Courts. This would mean that most church-state separation cases would be removed from the jurisdiction of the Courts, and that local, state and federal legislative bodies would be left to decide such matters. In addition, House Joint Resolution 39 seeks to add a Constitutional amendment saying that, "A law that prescribes the Pledge of Allegiance or provides for United States coins or currency is not a law respecting an establishment of religion because it refers to God in the Pledge or includes a reference to God on coins or currency." Such an Amendment is unlikely to pass, but we should fight it nevertheless, both for its blatantly self-contradictory nature and its brazen attempt to weaken the First Amendment. Act on all these threats to church-state separation by writing Congress using CFA's Activism Resources today at http://campusinquirer.c.tclk.net/maaa4dVaaXTS6b25GhNb/ ------------------------------------------------------ Update Your Email Preferences and Spread the Word Important: Click on the link at the very bottom of this email to customize your profile and email preferences.

Hello all,

Just a reminder, today is the second Monday of May, and so there's a discussion meeting scheduled at Baba Budan's on Calhoun at 5:00 (or whenever you can make it).  There are also several upcoming events that you might be interested in hearing about tonight.  Hope to see you there!

For those of you attending the banquet this Friday (May 16th):
The banquet is no longer going to be held in honor of anybody. We are just eating, talking, etc.  It is at Hamburger Mary's downtown (don't ask me for directions, b/c I have no idea) and will start at 7:00 (lasting until ?). Dress is casual (Walt!).  We are carpooling, so those of you who have cars, please drive them; however, there are only 22 people going (how many people we need to drive, etc. can be figured out then and there).  We will meet at 6:00 in the CCM circle and go from there.  Afterward, there will be an ice cream party at Liz's house (2380 Ravine St.) if you are so inclined to go.  So far, no one new has RSVP'd.  I think that's it. If anyone has anything else to add, let me know.
See you there,
Britt

Hello all,

Is anyone NOT planning on carpooling to the banquet tonight?  Well, if so, or if you're running late or something:

 Hamburger Mary's is located at 911 Vine Street.  I believe Vine street is one-way after you get past Central Pkwy, so you can't take Vine St. straight from UC.  My suggested route:

 From Edwards Center @ UC, turn right on Jefferson, go through the light on Calhoun, and take a left onto East McMillan at the next light.  Take McMillan to the top of the hill and turn right onto Auburn.

Take Auburn past Christ Hospital and bear right (but don't turn right) at the stop sign at the 5-way intersection to get on Sycamore.  Stay on Sycamore until you get to 9th street.  Turn right and follow 9th to Vine.  Hamburger Mary's is on Vine Street between 9th and Court Street. 

Hope this isn't terribly confusing.  See you all tonight.   


Walt

Sorry for the late email. I have had a lot of stuff going on. If you might have heard, Atheist Awareness Day will be held on the 28th and 29th on McMicken Commons; Wednesday and Thursday. Also, some of the materials needed have not arrived yet. The times are 10:30-1:30 on both days. The people signed up are:
 
Wednesday-28th
Ryan  11-1
Walt  10:30-10:50 & 12-1:20
Ian 11-12:30
Lisa 10:30-1
 
Thursday-29th
Ryan  Whole time
Ian 11-12:30
Carl  Whole time

Hi everybody!

Even though the year is waning, Skeptics has several events coming up.

First, on Wednesday and Thursday, we'll be tabling on McMicken lawn for Atheist Awareness (AA) Day(s) from 11 to about 1:30 or so.  Even if you can't stay, drop by and see what's going on.

On Wednesday from 10:30 to 12:30 (same time as AA day), we'll also be sponsring senior graduation pledges, where graduating seniors can pledge to take socially responsible employment after they graduate.  Spread the word to any of your senior friends. 

Monday, June 2 (next Monday):  You might have seen the posters already, but... 

Skeptics is sponsoring the Socialism vs. Capitalism debate in the Max Kade German Cultural Center (736 Old Chem).  The doors will open at 6:00 and the arguing will commence promptly at 6.30 and last until 8pm.  Coffee and tea will be provided, but at the request of the socialists, everyone will have to share the same cup : )  Just kidding.  About the cups.... not the debate... nevermind.  Just come to the German Cultural Center in Old Chem next Monday at 6:30. 

Saturday the 7th is the Skeptics picnic at Burnet Woods. 

On Saturday, May 31, at 7:00 PM, the UC Band will be giving a free concert in Corbett Auditorium at CCM.  What does this have to do with Skeptics?  Absolutely nothing, but I thought I'd throw it out there all the same.   

That's about all I got.  Hope to see everyone at AA day tomorrow. 

Take it easy,

Walt Lubbers, VP UC Skeptics

Hi everybody,

We would like to have a planning meeting next week to get ideas going for next year.  Sorry about the late notice... the original plan was to have it Wednesday at 5:30, though I know this doesn't work for everybody.  Other possible times might be: 

Late Tuesday evening (8:30, 9:00)

Late Wednesday evening

Thursday evening

Please email me ASAP with any and all times that you would be able to attend. 

Also, don't forget, the Capitalist : Socialist debate will be held this coming Monday, June 2 at 6:30 in the German Cultural Center in Old Chem.  

That's all for now,

Walt Lubbers

 

PS:  Correction: in my last email, I stated that the UC Band woud be playing at Corbett Auditorium on Saturday when in fact the concert will be in the Corbett Theater at CCM.  My apologies to the band.

OK, based on the information I recieved, it sounds like Wednesday is the day that the most people could make it (actually, it's almost evenly split).  I gather that the biggest problem is that people have class on Wednesday evening, so... what if we started about 8:30 instead of 5:30?  Would this really screw anybody up? Again, sorry all this is coming so late. 

Also, in regards to location, does anybody have any suggestions/ preferences? 

Finally, don't forget to come to the Socialist/ Capitalist Debate tonight at 6:30 in the German Cultural Center in Old Chem. 

Thanks,

Walt

Hi Everybody,

We'll be having the

SKEPTICS PICNIC  on (this) Saturday, June 6, from 12:00 till 3:00. 

COME RAIN OR SHINE, we'll be in Burnet Woods Park (across MLK from UC's Campus) at the big picnic shelter next to the Trailside Nature Center.  However, the only chance of rain they're calling for is in the early morning, so we'll be good.  And besides, who cares if it rains?  We've got a professional fortune teller coming and lots of food and drinks and you're 85% water anyway so a little more won't kill you  : )   But seriously folks, it will be a lot of fun and we'll be there even if it rains. 

"How do I get to Burnet Woods?" 

Walking from UC:

-From Langsam Library, walk down Campus Drive to the intersection/ stoplight on M.L. King Drive.  There's a big sign that says Burnet Woods across from campus. Cross M.L. King and walk straight back the road along the lake until you come to a big 4-way intersection.  Bear right.  As you round the corner, you'll see the nature center.  Next to the nature center is a big set of steps and a stone slide.  Go down the steps and you'll see the picnic shelter.

Driving from UC:

-Go NORTH ON CLIFTON AVE (as in, make a right turn from Calhoun St. or ML King when it intersects Clifton)  like you're going to Ludlow Ave. 

-  At the bottom of the hill, Clifton intersects Ludlow.  Turn RIGHT ON LUDLOW.

-  The first street on your right is Brookline.  It is marked with brown sign.  TURN RIGHT ON BROOKLINE.

-  Brookline dead ends after about a thousand feet.  You can park anywhere you want on Brookline since it's Saturday.  We'll be in the valley on the right as you go down Brookline. 

 If you can't find a spot, I suggest you go back the way you came (leaving Brookline, turn left onto Ludlow, left onto Clifton) and then turn left onto M.L. King.  Turn left at the light at the bottom of the hill into Burnet Woods, then park on one of the side streets (the permit parking spots are M-F only).  Go back down the hill to the nature center and go down the steps to find us.     

If I've really confused you, here's a map.  We'll be next to the blue house with the N on it (on the map) . http://www.cincinnati-oh.gov/parks.cfm?loc=http://dynamic.cinci-parks.org/cgi-bin/parks.cgi/park_desc?park_id=59

See you Saturday!
If you have any questions, let me know.

It's been reorganized a bit, but most importantly it has some new announcements that Mr. William Messer asked at the picnic to post. They're all about events concerning Art, Free Speech, Censorship, the Constitution, and everything else. Many of these events have been tailored specifically for Cincinnati and I hope you all can go to some of them because they actually look pretty darn interesting.

By Chris Mooney. Polls about evolution get me depressed. First of all, these polls tend to paint a sorry picture of the state of science education in the United States. And not only that. They also underscore just how malleable survey results can be -- and thus, how easily partisans can manipulate polls to demonstrate what the public "thinks"...

Campus Inquirer is published monthly by the Campus Freethought Alliance, a campus outreach program of the Center for Inquiry, promoting reason, science, free inquiry, and church-state separation in education. 1. CFI Announces Two New Magazines 2. New Spanish-Language Magazine to be Published by CFI 3. New Appointments 4. Grand Opening of CFI-West and "Steve Allen Theater" in Los Angeles 5. 876 Groups Now Affiliated with CFI and Its Programs 6. New Future Fund Launches $26.26 Million Campaign ----------------------------------------------------------- CFI Report Update The Center for Inquiry Breaks All Records! >From Paul Kurtz Chairman, Center for Inquiry The Center for Inquiry (CFI) and its affiliated magazines and organizations continue to make unparalleled progress on behalf of reason, science, and free inquiry. 1. CFI Announces Two New Magazines CFI is pleased to announce two distinguished magazines added to its roster. They are The Scientific Review of Alternative Medicine, edited by Dr. Wallace Sampson; and The Scientific Review of Mental Health Practice, edited by Professor Scott Lilienfeld. These provide evaluations of claims made in alternative medicine and/or psychotherapy. Both are published by the newly integrated "Council for Scientific Medicine and Mental Health" and have transferred from their original publisher, Prometheus Books, to the Center for Inquiry. CFI is concerned with applying scientific methods to health. With its focus on human health, the new Council will be launched on November 13th at the New York Academy of Medicine (1216 Fifth Avenue, New York, NY 10029) from 1-5pm. For details, contact Dr. Austin Dacey at adacey@centerforinquiry.net. 2. New Spanish-Language Magazine to be Published by CFI A new magazine on skeptical inquiry, to be called Pensar (To Think), will begin publication throughout Latin America in January 2004. Edited by Alejandro Borgo of Argentina, its Editorial Board will include editors from Peru, Ecuador, Mexico, Chile, Brazil, Costa Rica, and Venezuela. The magazine will be published under the auspices of CSICOP. This now brings to a total of sixteen the number of magazines, either published or financially supported by the Center: Free Inquiry, Skeptical Inquirer, Philo, The American Rationalist, Skeptical Briefs, Secular Humanist Bulletin, Family Matters, SOS International Newsletter, AAH Examiner, Ingersoll Report, CFI Report, The Skeptic (United Kingdom), Common Sense (Zdrauj Smysl) (Russia). 3. New Appointments The Council for Secular Humanism (CSH) announces the appointment of its new Executive Director, Dr. David Koepsell, who holds both a Ph.D. in Philosophy and a Law degree from the State University of New York at Buffalo. Dr. Koepsell has taught philosophy and practiced law. He replaces Dr. Edward Buckner who has moved back to Atlanta and has been named Southern Director of CSH. Paul Kurtz, Chairman, said, "We are pleased to welcome Dr. Koepsell to the Council, and are especially grateful to Ed and Diane Buckner for their significant service — and for the fact that Ed will be the leading spokesperson for CSH in the southern United States." 4. Grand Opening of CFI-West and "Steve Allen Theater" in Los Angeles The Center for Inquiry will celebrate the completion of its CFI-West regional headquarters at 4773 Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles. The grand opening will be held on November 15th from 3:00-5:00pm and 7:00-10:00pm. This occasion will officially open the handsome "Steve Allen Theater” and unveil a bust made in his honor. A gala cast of celebrities will be in attendance. CFI-West is working hard to close the final gap in its $5.8 million fund drive. 5. 876 Groups Now Affiliated with CFI and Its Programs The Center for Inquiry (CFI) is a coalition of local, regional, national, and international groups and societies. A new census of these groups brings the total number to 876: this makes CFI the largest movement advancing scientific naturalism and free thought in the history of North America. Included in these figures are the following: 10 Centers for Inquiry have been established: 4 in the United States and 6 in other countries. Barry Karr, Executive Director, reports that: 102 skeptical groups are affiliated with the Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal (39 in the United States and 63 worldwide). DJ Grothe, National Field Director of the Council of Secular Humanism and Director of the Campus Freethought Alliance, reports that: 122 secular humanist, atheist, and freethought groups affiliated with the Council. 142 student groups on campuses worldwide are affiliate groups of the Campus Freethought Alliance. Jim Christopher, founder and Executive Director of SOS, estimates that: There are nearly 500 Secular Organizations for Sobriety (SOS). These include approximately 475 secular, abstinence-based self-help recovery groups in the United States and 25 in various countries of the world (Canada, United Kingdom, Russia, Italy, Israel, etc.). 6. New Future Fund Launches $26.26 Million Campaign The Center for Inquiry is pleased to announce the launching of a four-year, $26.26 million New Future Fund. The purposes of this effort will be to raise capital and endowment funds to expand the Center’s influence and impact. The campaign projects continued dramatic expansion by CFI in the future. A brochure describing this campaign will be in the mail shortly. The Center for Inquiry Executive Committee issued a statement in launching the New Future Fund: "We are gratified with the progress of the Center for Inquiry, CSICOP, and the Council for Secular Humanism, but this is in the face of the massive forces of unreason, irrational fundamentalist and intemperate paranormal claims that confront us. We have a tremendous battle ahead if the movement for reason and the scientific outlook is to make further headway.

Freethought News ----------------------------------------------------------- 1. President's Letter, by Mat Pauley Dear CFA members: Hey skeptics and freethinkers! This is Mat Pauley with another astonishing story for you. This week, a young girl with the power of DOUBT faces off against the chaotic Dogmatics. How will she fair? Read on… (For those who did not grow up on Marvel Comics like I did, that was my impression of Stan Lee.) Here's a brief bio of me: Name: Mathew David Pauley Age: 24 Location: Marquette University Law School, Milwaukee WI Undergrad: Middle Tennessee State University Major: Philosophy and Political Science David Lee Roth or Sammy Hagar: The Diamond One all the way Up next: current events. For brevity's sake, I will concentrate on two subjects- one national and one local to the Milwaukee. First, on the issue of Christian activist and suspended Judge Roy Moore (the 2-ton granite monument of the Decalogue in the rotunda of the Alabama Supreme Court) since our community has responded creatively and critically to his actions. If you have not heard of Chief Justice Roy Moore, I do suggest you do a little research—it is a very relevant and interesting issue. Currently Moore is suspended and charged with six ethics violations by the Judicial Inquiry Commission. Regardless of the results of the inquiry, Moore gains more and more support. He is earning all the benefits of martyrdom without the messy death. Every passing week gives the suspended justice more media time. This is why it is important to educate people as best as possible of implications of Moore’s judiciary decisions and let our voices be heard. The ACLU and Americans United for Separation of Church and State are not be the only voices of reason regarding this issue. A couple months go, on Friday, August 22, in Milwaukee a pastor killed an 8-year-old boy while performing an exorcism on him. The boy was supposedly inhabited by demons or Satan himself; in this case the evil spirit has another name – autism. Torrence Cantrell, Jr. was autistic. Immediately the debate arose. What that pastor did to that boy was “murder,” say some. Others argue that faith healing is just as valid as traditional medicinal practices; after all, even in traditional medical practices, some patients die. To add some facts for those not up on Wisconsin happenings: the pastor David Hemphill was charged with felony child abuse as opposed to a more heinous crime. Perhaps the State could not prove homicide or manslaughter. Also, there is a Wisconsin statute under the Physical Abuse of Child that declares that one is not guilty of Child Abuse if one provides spiritual healing. This issue touches on the aims of the Campus Freethought Alliance: investigating the implications of supernatural beliefs. This case is especially saddening because an innocent child died. To stay on topic of investigating paranormal claims, the Committee for Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal (CSICOP) and Skeptical Inquirer Magazine is having a conference called "Hoaxes, Myths, and Manias." This conference will be in Albuquerque, New Mexico on October 23-26, and will feature more big-name speakers than I can describe here. Check out www.csicop.org/events/conference-2003/index.html. Center For Inquiry conferences and those held by its affiliated organizations such as CSICOP and the Council for Secular Humanism are always a lot of fun. There is a student discount for those who want to attend. Check out the site and see for yourself. Lastly, I want to ask you a couple questions important for the future growth of the "movement." Have you joined the CFA as an individual? Have members of your group? There is a common question of "how big is CFA?" Sufficed to say, we are bigger than our published numbers show: we have only around 140 groups listed, 82 prospective groups listed, and about 8,000 individual members-at-large. But the sad truth is many members of CFA groups are not yet individual members of CFA (it’s always free to join, and by joining, you'll received free organizing, promotional and educational materials in the mail). Right now either you are reading my message on the website or you are reading the Campus Inquirer newsletter. If you are at the website, dude, just click and join. If you are reading the newsletter, go to the website and join -- even if you're not a student you can join for free as an "off-campus supporter." The website also has a bunch of other tools at your disposal as well as very active forum to chat with other freethinkers (and some other people who have joined to converse). A real easy thing to do is for CFA group presidents and group leaders to send an email out to your group, inviting your members to join. Feel free to email me with any questions or comments at president@campusfreethought.org. Sincerely, Mathew Pauley Marquette University 2. New CFA Affiliate and Prospect Groups Eight New Campus Groups Join CFA -- The Campus Freethought Alliance is pleased to announce that eight new campus freethought groups have been founded by or have affiliated with CFA. These include groups at University of Wisconsin at Eau Claire, University of Texas at Austin, Cornell University, University of California at Santa Barbara, Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy, Texas Tech University, St. Petersburg College, Camosun College in Canada. Many other campuses are in the process of forming CFA affiliate groups. This is in addition to the members-at-large who join CFA without a group yet on their campus. If you attend one of the schools listed above and would like to get involved with the new CFA group there, use the group contact form. If not, you can see if there is a group at your school by visiting: www.campusfreethought.org/affiliates.htm. Sixteen New CFA Groups in the Process of Forming -- Since the last issue of Campus Inquirer, CFA has been contacted by students or faculty at the following campuses expressing interest in starting or revitalizing a CFA affiliate group: Montana State University, University of Evansville (IN), Carleton University (Canada), University of Toronto (Canada), Bellevue Community College (WA), Brockton High School (MA), Arcadia High School (CA), University of Malta (Malta), Rutgers University (NJ) University of Memphis (TN), Bath High School (OH), Marquette University (WI), University of Maryland, College Park, Ponoma College (CA), Patterson High School (CA), and the University of South Carolina. If you attend one of the schools listed above and would like to get involved with the new CFA group forming there, use the group contact form. 3. Employment Opportunities with CFA CFA's professional staff is expanding again, so please help us spread the word. You can see a description of the new position of "Campus Organizer" that we're seeking to fill at www.campusfreethought.org. Salary and benefits are competitive, and the job provides intellectually stimulating work with opportunities for travel, writing, and media appearances. 4.

If you would like to arrange or attend a meeting in these regions, please contact us. Visit http://campusinquirer.c.tep1.com/maabzvbaa1rd1b25GhNb/ to schedule a talk or debate in your area. 5. CFA's Online Discussion Forum - An Online Hub for Student Inquirers CFA is pleased to report that our online discussion forum is succeeding in its role as a hub for discussion and debate among high school and college students and faculty. With hundreds of posts and over a 170 participants, there's always a reason to stop by and opine. Its free to get involved with the discussion forums, and its a great way to meet others who share your worldview, and maybe some who don't. Forum categories include College and High School Freethought Activism, where students share their strategies for promoting critical inquiry on campus, lively debates such as "Are Psychics Real?" and "Can you be Good Without God?" and "Does Prayer Work?" and many other threads of discussion of interest to freethinking students and faculty. http://campusinquirer.c.tep1.com/maabzvbaa1rd2b25GhNb/ 6. New CFA Resources In addition to the existing line of CFA's free educational and promotional products, new CFA products are now available for CFA group leaders and off-campus supporters of a CFA group, including a video lecture by the Distinguished Professor of Philosophy from University of Texas, Robert Solomon, on "Spirituality as Sentimentality," a two-part video debate between Eddie Tabash and Michael Vander Meer ("Does God Exist?"), reprints of selected articles from FREE INQUIRY and SKEPTICAL INQUIRER magazines, new "Doubt" promotional stickers from CFA and CSICOP, and selected books and booklets. Additional promotional and educational products are now in production. To see the current listing of CFA's free educational and promotional products, go to www.campusfreethought.org/rfm.php. CFA Group leaders can request these resources to help promote their group on their campus, and to provide content and direction at CFA group meetings, as well as advance freethought and skepticism in their community. Please help us spread the word! 7. CFA Lecture and Debate Circuit Each academic year, CFA sponsors, underwrites and/or organizes dozens of campus events throughout North America, in keeping with its mission as a public educational organization . These events include campus-wide debates, lectures, symposia and "new CFA group launch meetings." This fall, campus-wide debates and events on the role of science in society, threats to academic freedom; ethics and public policy; and the role of religion and credulity in American public life are planned at UCLA, UC-Irvine, University of Montana, Wabash College, University of New Mexico, Ohio State University and for students in Baton Rouge, LA; Knoxville, TN; Austin, TX; and St. Louis, MO. For more information on these events, see the events listing elsewhere in this issue. Check out how CFA groups in your area can get involved by going to www.campusfreethought.org/debate.htm or by looking at the current listing of CFA's Speakers and Debaters at www.campusfreethought.org/speakers.htm. If you want to work with CFA to bring a campus-wide event to a school in your area, just let us know! 8. CSICOP Conference NEWS FLASH!!!: Strange beings from a planet in our galaxy will converge on Albuquerque, New Mexico! And the US Government has not released this information to the public! O.K. These strange beings are skeptics from the planet Earth, and they probably haven't yet told the government about their conference. The Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal (CSICOP)-publisher of Skeptical Inquirer magazine-is hosting a conference on "Hoaxes, Myths, and Manias" at the Radisson Hotel and Conference Center, in Albuquerque, New Mexico, from Thursday, October 23 through Sunday, October 26, 2003. Talk subjects include: "Pranks, Frauds, and Hoaxes from around the World"; "Conspiracy Theories"; "Investigating Among the Spirits"; "Beyond the Bible Code: Hidden Messages Everywhere"; "Medical Hoaxes"; and "The Use of the Polygraph." And of course, given the nearness to Roswell, there will be plenty of discussion of UFO hoaxes and encounters! Featured speakers include: urban legends author Jan Harold Brunvand; Skeptical Inquirer editor, Ken Frazier; CSICOP Senior Research Fellow Joe Nickell; Scientific Review of Alternative Medicine Editor Dr. Wallace Sampson; National Center for Science Education Executive Director Eugenie Scott, and many others. Mentalist Steve Shaw (a.k.a. "Banachek") will entertain attendees with amazing "psychic" demonstrations at a Saturday evening banquet. The "Candle in the Dark" and "Snuffed Candle Awards" for-respectively-the most and least skeptical person or institution in the media will also be awarded that evening. Those interested in registering for the conference should call 1-800-634-1610 or visit www.csicop.org/events/conference-2003 -- CFA members and students get a special discounted registration price. On Thursday, October 23, there will be a tour of Sandia National Laboratories -- one of the nation's premier research and development facilities. The tour will consist of a drive-around, "windshield" viewing of the labs with a narration of the various areas including some of Kirtland Air Force Base sites. Visitors will view the Central Receiver Test Facility, a major test field for developing technology to produce electricity from the heat of the sun. CSICOP has also organized a bus trip to Roswell, New Mexico on Sunday, October 25, to see the town where UFO legend began. 9.

It was a wonderful time discussing objectivism, capitalism, socialism, and a million-and-a-half what-ifs. Times like these make me proud to be in an organization such as Skeptics. It's rare that two opposing viewpoints encounter each other with such civility, rationality, and enthusiasm to strengthen and/or question one's own views, call to task those of others, and otherwise encourage a growth into intellectual maturity. I doubt there exist many other opportunities on campus - dare I say, in our lifetime - to take part in events such as we did today. To set matters straight, that was a heartfelt thank you, not a set-up to an advertising pitch (hence this handy little buffer one-sentence paragraph ended with an ellipsis - you know, those three dots in a row)... As many of you know, November 3rd is our Open House (that's this coming Monday) at 5:00 pm in Swift Hall, rm. 500. As the self-proclaimed "Associate Minister of Propaganda" (aka Flier Maker Helper Outer), I'm sending out this e-mail to encourage you all to come, and to bring friends as well. We'll be serving up the finest Cincy has to offer - Adriatico's Pizza and a big ol' Super Pretzel. In addition to those gustatory delights, we'll be giving a brief history of Skeptics, showing a few videos, and throwing an ingenious get-to-know-you icebreaker game. Don't forget, though, that we're still meeting on the 2nd and 4th Monday of every month at Baba's at 5pm for coffee and forum. See you Monday! --Ben Savoca Associate Minister of Propaganda UC Skeptics "It is proof of a base and low mind for one to wish to think with the masses or majority, merely because the majority is the majority.

[Warning: Personal spiel coming henceforth] I know some of you might disagree with the particulars of the Green Party platform, but I think they would still be a worthwhile ally to all of us, insofar as they strongly promote alternative political choices to our current Republican/Democrat system. Theirs is a view that seeks to bring to our discussion new voices (their own and other's) that offer something other than the standard political sound byte and polarized either/or discourse. That, and they're just nice proactive citizens concerned for everyone, something I'm sure all of us--objectivists excluded--can appreciate. ------------------------------------------------ Jeremy, Some words for you to share with your fellow Skeptics. It would be great to have a crowd at the screening of ROGER & ME tomorrow. The Campus Green Party is back at UC, and in the spirit of free thought and open debate, we would welcome members of the UC Skeptics at all meetings and events. The Campus Green Party is the student activist arm of the Green Party of the United States, which is affiliated with the international Green Party. Domestically, the Green Party exists as a political alternative to the "two-party establishment" and represents the same 10 Key Values the Campus Green Party plans to uphold at UC and in the local community: · Grassroots democracy · Social justice & equal opportunity · Ecological wisdom · Non-violence · Decentralization · Community-based economics and economic justice · Feminism and gender equity · Respect for diversity · Personal and global responsibility · Future focus and sustainability Join us this week to learn more about the Campus Green Party and to support our right to organize politically on campus: TUESDAY - 10/28 Free screening of Michael Moore's ROGER & ME 7:00 p.m. 601 Old Chem WEDMESDAY - 10/29 Tabling in support of Adjunct Faculty Association 4:00 - 6:00 p.m. McMicken Greens THURSDAY - 10/30 Michael Moore lecture 8:00 p.m. Xavier's Cintas Center (Tickets are $10 at the box office or $13 from Ticketmaster. We will be carpooling from UC campus.) Please let us know if you have any questions.

Free Inquiry Group/FIG
Tom Flynn, editor of Free Inquiry magazine, will speak on
Robert Green Ingersoll, "America's Greatest Infidel"
Tuesday, November 11, 2003 

Friends of FIG,
On Tuesday, November 11, Tom Flynn will speak to us about Robert 
Green
Ingersoll (1833-1899).  He was the foremost orator and political 
speechmaker
of late 19th century America, the "golden age of freethought."  
Widely known
for his opposition to religion, he also argued for the rights of 
workers,
women, and prisoners. He was an early popularizer of Charles 
Darwin and a
tireless advocate of science and reason.
Tom will be providing an introduction to Ingersoll and setting 
him in the
context of 19th century American politics, intellectual life, 
and the
freethought movement. He will be focusing especially on 
Ingersoll's ties to
the Queen City. Cincinnati played a large role in his life, 
starting with
the fact that he launched his career as a national-level speaker 
at the 1876
Republican Convention held in Cincinnati -- as it happens, on 
the very site
where Music Hall would stand.

Unbelief
(updating and substantially extending Gordon Stein's work). Tom 
is in charge
of the  Ingersoll Birthplace Museum in Dresden, New York. See

As Gary Mentioned, the Scientologists are a large and rich bunch, with a history of legal harassment of people who oppose them. That said, any effort to innoculate UC students against this cult must be done carefully, so as not to cause problems for UC in general, or the UC skeptics more specifically. So I intend to keep an eye out for them, and try to get them chased off when they operate outside the free speech area (On the Mickmicken commons). If they request space on the commons, UC will grant it, and I would like to hand out non-skeptics literature on scientology. One other possibility would be to find and host a scientology speaker to talk about the cult and how it works. I think this would be highly relevant at the moment, because the scientologists are working on campus right now.

Hello everyone,

On Tuesday (this), Nov. 18, UC Skeptics will be gathering dining hall
meal donations to benefit the humanitarian efforts of Oxfam America, a
group aimed at wiping out poverty and promoting social justice. 


Donating meals?  Isn't it going to be hard to send all that food
halfway across the country? 

Well, we're not actually collecting meals.  In exchange for you giving
up your regular dinner meal credit on Friday, November 21, UC Housing/
Food Services will donate the money they save not having to feed you to
Oxfam.

How can I help, Walt?

I'm glad you asked.  For one thing, we need people to help solicit
donations.  All you need to do is meet us in Sander Dining Hall on
Tuesday.  The more people, the better.  You can also help by signing up
to donate your meal and by passing the word on. 

Wow, thanks Walt!  You're so cool!

I know. 

If you can help, we'll be setting up about 5:00 on Tuesday.  We really
need people from just after 6:00 until about 7:00; if you can come at
all, please email me and let me know. 



Thanks a lot!

Walt Lubbers

Hello everyone-

Just wanted to say thanks a lot to everybody who helped out/ donated meals for the Oxfam event last night.  Given the very limited time available, it seemed to work out pretty well. There was a pretty big student response to it.    Special thanks to Ryan, Jeremy, Sam, Gibbs, and anybody I've forgotten who helped work the table.

Thanks again!

Walt

Thi story is from http://www.msnbc.com/news/1002011.asp? vts=120720031509 HUTALA, Afghanistan, Dec. 7 — A U.S. air strike apparently killed nine children and a suspected militant in eastern Afghanistan on Saturday, a spokesman for the U.S. military said. THE AMERICAN WARPLANE was targeting Mullah Wazir, once a local commander for the hard-line Islamic militia. U.S. Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad and a U.S. military official said Wazir was killed in the attack. Army Maj. Christopher E. West said U.S. troops collected “extensive intelligence over an extended period of time†and located the suspect targeted Saturday at an “isolated, rural site.†“Following the attack, ground coalition forces searching the area found the bodies of both the intended target and those of nine children nearby,†he said Sunday. Earlier, residents and local officials said Wazir escaped — or was not in the village at all. “It has not been ascertained if Mullah Wazir was killed or not, but the house was his,†said Haji Assadullah, governor of Ghazni province. The residents reported at least one adult man, possibly a Wazir relative, was killed along with the children. The strike was the latest U.S. air attack to kill Afghan civilians as American-led forces hunt for remnants of the Taliban and al-Qaida who have stepped up violence in southern and eastern Afghanistan. U.N. CRITICISM The United Nation’s envoy to Afghanistan, Lakhdar Brahimi, said he was “profoundly distressed†by the attack in the village of Hutala. The airstrike, “which follows similar incidents, adds to a sense of insecurity and fear in the country,†Brahimi said. In a statement, the government of Afghan President Hamid Karzai said it fully supported fighting terrorism but urged the U.S.-led coalition to “be very careful not to repeat such tragedies.†In Hutala, a field was pockmarked by dozens of small craters from the American A-160 aircraft’s guns. There were pools of blood and articles of children’s clothing were strewn on the ground. “They were just playing ball, and then the shots came down,†said Hamidullah, a distraught villager who said his 8- year-old son, Habibullah, was among those killed. Like many Afghans, they only have one name. The village lies about 100 miles southwest of Kabul, along the main road between the capital and the main southern city Kandahar, in Ghazni province, which has seen numberous Taliban attacks, including the Nov. 16 slaying of a French U.S. aid worker. Khalilzad said he was “deeply saddened†by the “tragic loss of innocent life,†and had spoken to Karzai. A senior U.S. military officer and Afghan officials were meeting Sunday with the bereaved families, he said. VILLAGERS SAY TARGET WASN’T KILLED But Hamidullah said the man killed along with the children was a cousin of Wazir named Abdul Hamid. Another villager said Wazir had left two weeks earlier. Jawaid Khan, secretary of Ghazni’s governor, also said Wazir was not killed. “The people there are very afraid. They have no idea why the Americans bombed their village,†Khan said. He put the number of children killed at eight and said two other men were also killed. About a dozen U.S. soldiers stood guard outside a mud house in Hutala that locals said belonged to Wazir. West called Wazir a “known terrorist.†But Wazir was not known as a major player during the regime of the hardline Islamic Taliban militia, which was ousted two years ago by U.S.-led forces. Khalilzad said Wazir “had bragged of his personal involvement in attacks on innocent Afghan citizens.†Local Afghan official Ahmad Zia Masood said that Wazir himself fired at U.S. helicopters on Friday. West said U.S. troops had collected “extensive intelligence over an extended period of time†and located Wazir at an “isolated, rural site.†A STRING OF MISTAKES The 11,500 U.S.-led troops hunting Taliban and al-Qaida remnants often are supported by air power, and there have been a string of incidents where warplanes have mistakenly killed civilians. By a February 2002 Associated Press count from hospitals and other reliable sources, between 500 and 600 Afghan civilians were killed by airstrikes during the U.S.- led campaign that removed the Taliban. Since then, as American forces try to stamp out Taliban fighters, more deaths have occurred. The worst incident was in July 2002, when Afghan officials said 48 civilians at a wedding party were killed and 117 wounded by a U.S. Air Force AC-130 gunship in Uruzgan province, which borders Ghazni province. On April 9, a U.S. warplane mistakenly bombed a home, killing 11 civilians. Another air strike in Nuristan province in eastern Afghanistan on Oct. 31 reportedly killed at least eight civilians in a house. Taliban attacks have prompted international aid agencies to reduce operations in Afghanistan’s south and east.

Hello again,

It slipped my mind as I was writing the last email, but tonight we'd also like to discuss alternative meeting places to Baba's (thanks to Gary for the reminder).  They've been great and all, but we'd like to find a place that stays open past 7, which kind of puts a damper on a lot of good conversations. 

Anyway, be thinking, and if you can't make it to the meeting, send a reply to me (or the skeptics mailing list) and we'll bring it up. 

Take care!

Walt

Center for Inquiry to Offer Master's Degree through SUNY-Buffalo The Center for Inquiry is partnering with the State University of New York at Buffalo to develop an innovative Master's degree entitled "Science and the Public," which may be available as soon at Fall 2005. The first degree of its kind, CFI's interdisciplinary M.S. in social science will explore the history and philosophy of the scientific outlook and methods as they intersect with public perceptions and attitudes. Drawing on sociological research and philosophical analysis, the program will prepare students for further specialized graduate study in sociology, history and philosophy of science, psychology, religious studies, science communication, public policy, and science education, as well as careers in research, education, public administration, publishing, and science journalism. Questions about the Master's degree program, or the new annual CFI/SUNY visiting research fellowships, may be sent to the director of research and education for CFI, Dr. Austin Dacey, at adacey@centerforinquiry.net. 5. Center for Inquiry is Traveling in Spring 2004 Throughout 2004, the Center for Inquiry will be offering "frontline briefings" from leading intellectuals and organizers who are defending reason in an irrational world. You'll hear about the latest issues confronting science and reason, and what the Center for Inquiry and its organizations are doing about it - and how you can get involved. In addition, Campus Freethought Alliance staff will meet with students in each area to help them organize rationalist efforts on their campuses. Low registration costs include Saturday luncheon, Sunday continental breakfast and free parking at the venue. For more information about the sessions in your area, see http://campusinquirer.c.tep1.com/maabSgaaa3KPSa8Pn89b/ 6. CFA Hires Another Campus Organizer CFA is proud to welcome Zachary Miner as a Campus Organizer. He brings a number of skills to the organization including a commitment to reason and skepticism, a background with community activism and volunteer service, and experience with multimedia production and website design. Miner graduated from Ithaca College in 2002 with a degree in Television/Radio Studies, and it was through his work towards his major that he became involved with the Center for Inquiry and its organizations. For his senior video project, Miner did a documentary on a group of ghost hunters from upstate New York, for which he consulted CSICOP fellows and other CFI experts. In 2002, Miner worked for AmeriCorps for one year and took a position with TechLink New Hampshire, a state-wide non-profit educational organization. There he did public relations, event planning and aided the organization in its goal to help bridge New Hampshire's "digital divide." Throughout the year he spent in New Hampshire, Miner was a frequent online volunteer for the Center for Inquiry. Miner will begin traveling to various campuses this semester and will also field e-mail and telephone inquiries from CFA's thousands of student members, faculty and off-campus supporters, and affiliated groups. To reach Zachary Miner at the Center for Inquiry, please e-mail zminer@centerforinquiry.net or call (716) 636-7571, extension 315. 7. CFI Announces Offerings for Summer Session 2004 Applications are now being accepted for CFI's summer offerings, available to audit or for State University of New York undergraduate credit through Empire State College. This year's offerings are as follows: Revelation and Interpretation: A Critical Analysis. How should one interpret the claims of traditional religious scriptures? What would it mean to say that those claims are true or false? Are there general principles of historical and rational analysis that can be brought to bear? What lessons from the history of Christian biblical hermeneutics can be applied to the interpretation of Islam's sacred texts? This course provides an introduction to biblical criticism and Islamic studies, with a special focus on concepts of progressive revelation. Instructor: Lüdemann & Warraq. 3 credits. Punishment, Forgiveness, and Reconciliation: Religious and Secular Perspectives. As individuals and as communities, how are we to respond to wrong-doing and great evil? How are we to relate to the guilty and the aggrieved? Are any acts unforgivable? Can we make sense of horrible evil, and genuine forgiveness, outside of religious traditions? This course is an interdisciplinary introduction to the ethics of responsibility, punishment, and forgiveness and the politics of reconciliation. Instructor: Govier. 3 credits. Faculty Gerd Lüdemann is Professor of History and Literature of Early Christianity at Georg-August-University Göttingen, Germany, where he is Director of the Institute of Early Christian Studies. He is also a visiting scholar at Vanderbilt University and a research fellow at the Center for Inquiry. The author of hundreds of scholarly articles and reviews, his books (in English) include Primitive Christianity: A Survey of Recent Studies and Some New Proposals (Continuum International Publishing, 2003); Paul: The Founder of Christianity (Prometheus Books, 2002); Suppressed Prayers: Gnostic Spirituality in Early Christianity (Trinity, 1998); Heretics: The Other Side of Early Christianity (Westminster John Knox Press, 1996); and Jesus After 2000 Years: What he Really Said and Did (Prometheus, 2001). Trudy Govier is former Associate Professor at Trent University in Peterborough, Ontario. She has taught philosophy at Simon Fraser University and the Universities of Amsterdam, Calgary, and Lethbridge. She is the author of A Delicate Balance: What Philosophy Can Tell Us About Terrorism (Westview Press, 2002); Forgiveness and Revenge (Routledge, 2002); Dilemmas of Trust (McGill-Queen's University Press 1998); Social Trust and Human Communities (McGill-Queen's University Press, 1997); Socrates' Children: Thinking and Knowing in the Western Tradition (Broadview Press, 1997); God, The Devil And The Perfect Pizza (Broadview Press, 1989); and the internationally popular A Practical Study of Argument (Wadsworth, 2001), now in its fifth edition. Ibn Warraq is a senior research fellow at the Center for Inquiry and a noted scholar of the origins and intellectual foundations of Islam. His authored and edited books include Why I am not a Muslim, What the Koran Really Says, The Historical Muhammed, and Leaving Islam (all from Prometheus Books). Warraq's work and commentary on Islam and public affairs have recently been featured in Times Literary Supplement, Wall Street Journal, The Guardian, The Boston Globe, and on C-SPAN. Tuition and fees Courses available to audit or for transferable SUNY undergraduate credit (through Empire State College). Basic registration fee: $850 (14 days room and board at SUNY Buffalo residence halls; course instruction, course materials, special presentations and lectures, recreational excursions). Additional cost of in-state tuition: $475 per course; out-of-state tuition: $1,350 per course. 8. CFI Launches a Daring Fundraising Campaign The Center for Inquiry is proud to announce The New Future Fund, a bold $26 million campaign to fund CFI programs, capital expansion and endowments. While unprecedented in the history of America's skeptical and humanist movements, this multi-million dollar campaign is attainable. In smaller campaigns, the Center for Inquiry and its affiliated organizations have raised some $15.5 million since 1996. The New Future Fund represents a substantial but far from exponential raising of our sights. CFI's defense of science, reason, freedom of inquiry and humane values demands new methods and new approaches. This has led to the expansion of the organizations headquartered at CFI, such as the Council for Secular Humanism, CSICOP and CFA, and to the development new structures and ways of advancing their shared aims. The campaign is designed to create a long-term resource base for CFI programs and organizations independent of publishing revenues. It will empower CFI and its affiliated organizations to construct and expand facilities, purchase equipment, and fund and staff programs that further humanist, skeptical and rationalist agendas without relying solely on funding from Skeptical Inquirer and Free Inquiry magazines. CFI pursues a unique and urgent mission - the defense of reason in an irrational world - and does so on a scale the world has never seen. With the New Future Fund, CFI indeed "reaches out to a new future." For more information, contact rhull@centerforinquiry.net. 9. A New Spanish-language Magazine for Science and Reason The first issue of Pensar, a quarterly magazine in Spanish, is now available. It is the first international magazine of its kind dedicated to the Spanish speaking world. Involving specialists from a variety of countries, Pensar deals with the investigation of fringe science and paranormal claims: parapsychology, alternative medicine and psychology, UFOs, life after life, astrology, communication with the dead, "miracles", supernatural phenomena and other manifestations of the paranatural. The results of this research will also be presented and discussed with the aim of encouraging productive exchanges with our readers. The goal is the promotion of the scientific outlook and freedom of inquiry. Representatives from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, México, Paraguay, Perú, Puerto Rico and Venezuela make up Pensar's staff, which also includes a board of consultants composed of prestigious scientists, magicians, journalists, and teachers. The editor is Alejandro Borgo, an Argentinian journalist and writer. The first issues covers the ignored anomalies of the Turin "shroud", the conflict between creationism and evolution in education, the well-known myth that we use only 10 percent of our brain, along with local news coming from the represented countries, and two columns with controversial questions: is the world falling into an ecological disaster? Are women preferred targets of pseudoscientists? 10. New Feature of the Campus Inquirer: Book of the Month "Unintelligent Design," by Mark Perakh Physicist Mark Perakh critically reviews recent trends toward harmonizing religion and science. From intelligent design theories to arguments allegedly proving the compatibility of biblical stories with scientific data and "Bible codes" containing secret messages, Perakh shows that, however sophisticated in appearance, all such approaches are little more than tailoring evidence to fit the desired theory. Beginning with the design theorists, Perakh provides a detailed critique of the publications of William Dembski, Michael Behe, and Phillip Johnson. In each case he clearly demonstrates lack of substantiation, internal contradictions, and multiple fallacies that mar their works. In Part Two he critiques the "mental acrobatics" of various Christian and Jewish writers whose works attempt to prove such unlikely propositions as: the inerrancy of the Bible, the harmony of the Torah and science, the duration of the six days of creation, and deriving a theory of nonrandom evolution from the Talmud. Part Three describes how genuine science is conducted, what the laws of science actually mean to practicing scientists, and what distinguishes real science from pseudoscience. In conclusion, Perakh discusses the rise and fall of the so-called Bible code as an example of how well-marketed pseudoscience can successfully cloak itself in the mantle of science. For everyone interested in separating scientific facts from the hype of trendy theories about science, this book is must reading.

Campus Inquirer is published monthly by the Campus Freethought Alliance, a campus outreach program of the Center for Inquiry, promoting reason, science, free inquiry, and church-state separation in education. 1.

Events Calendar 10. Freethought News ----------------------------------------------------------- 1. Letter from the President Greetings Campus Inquirers! We are a couple months into the new year and there’s a lot happening at CFA. CFA, as you may have heard, is beginning the process of re-branding, changing its name and broadening its focus. CFA is becoming CFI – On Campus. CFA began years ago as a project of the Council for Secular Humanism, but has been expanding its scope over the last couple of years to support the pro-science aims of the Committee for the Scientific Claims of the Paranormal (CSICOP) and the other public education organizations headquartered at the Center for Inquiry. So, henceforth, I shall be referring to this organization, the one that was affectionately known to many as CFA, as CFI – On Campus. Other issues: Michael Newdow’s case. Skimming recent editions of the Campus Inquirer, one may learn that the case will be heard on March 24. So we now have slightly less than a month until the “under God” decision is THE topic. So be responsible, read up on the issue. Regardless the outcome of the high court’s decision, there might be fundamentalist backlash. Yes, CFI supports the separation of church and state, and yes, Dr. Newdow has been supportive of this organization (speaking to various of our groups at various times). Americans United for Separation of Church and State have informative resources on this issue at http://www.au.org/legal/cases.htm, as do the Council’s websites and CFA’s. You may remember that last month, the director of our New York Center for Inquiry, Susan Jacoby, had an op-ed in the New York Times about religion in politics. And many columnists at BeliefNet.com treat the subject. Politicians and their need to include religious symbolism is an important topic for public discussion. Personally, it saddens me that there is a need. A nonreligious, yet qualified, politician should not feel the need to use a religious spin in their campaign (this is coming from a person who is hoping Jimmy Carter would run again). I would commend two books to you on the subject, with which most secularists would disagree: Richard Neuhaus’s The Naked Public Square and Stephen Carter’s Culture of Disbelief. In those books the authors argue that citizens’ and especially politicians’ religious beliefs are hidden or trivialized. In fact, it seems that the some people in our society are trying to clothe the public square in religious belief, or at least the language of it. I would like to reiterate Susan Jacoby’s point about how “secularism” has become a dirty word. Recent airings of the O’Reilly Factor on Fox News show the disdain some in America have for “secularism.” Secularism is an important principle of American freedom. It provides more for religious liberty more then has ever hurt it. Why people would be against it is beyond me. Before I leave the issue of politics, I would just like to remind CFI On Campus members that as a public education and advocacy organization, we’re nonpartisan. We do speak out on certain political issues when it comes to church-state separation, the role of religion (or science) in our society, and the like. But supporters of the Center for Inquiry are Democrats, Republicans, social democrats, democratic socialists, Marxists, anarchists, libertarians, classical liberals (economic conservatives) and on and on. CFI – On Campus is not a wing of the College Democrats; we are all not Students for Kerry (or Nader). We stand for reasoned inquiry, science (not the “fringe” type), skepticism, and the idea that humanism is ethical; our stance does not necessarily preclude what one may call a “Neo-Con.” Please consider this as you promote our ideals on your campus. I’d like to end by highlighting some upcoming events. The Science and Ethics conference the Center for Inquiry is holding in Toronto looks especially exciting (details are below). In addition, make sure you make plans to attend CFI – On Campus’summer conference, if not also the Summer Session of college classes the Center for Inquiry is putting on in conjunction with the State University of New York. Look forward to seeing you there! Mat Pauley Student President CFI – On Campus 2. Three New CFA Affiliate Groups The Campus Freethought Alliance is pleased to announce that three new campus groups have recently been founded by or have affiliated with CFA since January 2004. These include CFA affiliate groups at Tufts University (MA), James Madison University (VA) and the University of California at Davis. To see if there is a CFA affiliate group on your campus, visit http://campusinquirer.c.tep1.com/maabZnqaa4Iwda8Pn89b/ 3. Four New CFA Groups in the Process of Forming Since January 2004, CFA has been contacted by students or faculty at the following campuses expressing interest in starting or revitalizing a CFA affiliate group: Regis University (CO), Southeastern Louisiana University, Case Western Reserve University (OH), Indiana Purdue University Fort Wayne (IN). To get involved in supporting these newly forming groups, visit http://campusinquirer.c.tep1.com/maabZnqaa4Iwda8Pn89b/ 4. CFA Staff to visit numerous campuses during Spring 2004 February: CFA representatives visit campuses in Charleston, SC; Akron, Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati, Ohio; and Pittsburgh, Lancaster and York, Pennsylvania. March: CFA representatives visit campuses in Kalamazoo and Ypsilanti, Michigan; and Omaha and Lincoln, Nebraska. April: CFA representatives visit campuses in Knoxville, Nashville, Memphis and Murfreesboro, Tennessee. Representatives of the Campus Freethought Alliance are meeting with activists and supporters on and off campus in the above locations.

To work with CFA to schedule a talk or debate in your area, visit www.campusfreethought.org/field.php. 5. Center for Inquiry is Traveling in Spring 2004 Throughout 2004, the Center for Inquiry will be offering "frontline briefings" from leading intellectuals and organizers who are defending reason in an irrational world. You'll hear about the latest issues confronting science and reason, and what the Center for Inquiry and its organizations are doing about it - and how you can get involved. In addition, Campus Freethought Alliance staff will meet with students in each area to help them organize rationalist efforts on their campuses. Low registration costs include Saturday luncheon, Sunday continental breakfast and free parking at the venue. For more information about the sessions in your area, see http://campusinquirer.c.tep1.com/maabZnqaa4Iwea8Pn89b/ 6. CFI Announces Offerings for Summer Session 2004 Applications are now being accepted for CFI's summer offerings, available to audit or for State University of New York undergraduate credit through Empire State College. This year's offerings are as follows: Revelation and Interpretation: A Critical Analysis. How should one interpret the claims of traditional religious scriptures? What would it mean to say that those claims are true or false? Are there general principles of historical and rational analysis that can be brought to bear? What lessons from the history of Christian biblical hermeneutics can be applied to the interpretation of Islam's sacred texts? This course provides an introduction to biblical criticism and Islamic studies, with a special focus on concepts of progressive revelation. Instructor: Lüdemann & Warraq. 3 credits. Punishment, Forgiveness, and Reconciliation: Religious and Secular Perspectives. As individuals and as communities, how are we to respond to wrong-doing and great evil? How are we to relate to the guilty and the aggrieved? Are any acts unforgivable? Can we make sense of horrible evil, and genuine forgiveness, outside of religious traditions? This course is an interdisciplinary introduction to the ethics of responsibility, punishment, and forgiveness and the politics of reconciliation. Instructor: Govier. 3 credits. Faculty Gerd Lüdemann is Professor of History and Literature of Early Christianity at Georg-August-University Göttingen, Germany, where he is Director of the Institute of Early Christian Studies. He is also a visiting scholar at Vanderbilt University and a research fellow at the Center for Inquiry. The author of hundreds of scholarly articles and reviews, his books (in English) include Primitive Christianity: A Survey of Recent Studies and Some New Proposals (Continuum International Publishing, 2003); Paul: The Founder of Christianity (Prometheus Books, 2002); Suppressed Prayers: Gnostic Spirituality in Early Christianity (Trinity, 1998); Heretics: The Other Side of Early Christianity (Westminster John Knox Press, 1996); and Jesus After 2000 Years: What he Really Said and Did (Prometheus, 2001). Trudy Govier is former Associate Professor at Trent University in Peterborough, Ontario. She has taught philosophy at Simon Fraser University and the Universities of Amsterdam, Calgary, and Lethbridge. She is the author of A Delicate Balance: What Philosophy Can Tell Us About Terrorism (Westview Press, 2002); Forgiveness and Revenge (Routledge, 2002); Dilemmas of Trust (McGill-Queen's University Press 1998); Social Trust and Human Communities (McGill-Queen's University Press, 1997); Socrates' Children: Thinking and Knowing in the Western Tradition (Broadview Press, 1997); God, The Devil And The Perfect Pizza (Broadview Press, 1989); and the internationally popular A Practical Study of Argument (Wadsworth, 2001), now in its fifth edition. Ibn Warraq is a senior research fellow at the Center for Inquiry and a noted scholar of the origins and intellectual foundations of Islam. His authored and edited books include Why I am not a Muslim, What the Koran Really Says, The Historical Muhammed, and Leaving Islam (all from Prometheus Books). Warraq's work and commentary on Islam and public affairs have recently been featured in Times Literary Supplement, Wall Street Journal, The Guardian, The Boston Globe, and on C-SPAN. Tuition and fees Courses available to audit or for transferable SUNY undergraduate credit. Basic registration fee: $850 (14 days room and board at SUNY Buffalo residence halls; course instruction, course materials, special presentations and lectures, recreational excursions). Additional cost of in-state tuition: $475 per course; out-of-state tuition: $1,350 per course. A limited number of scholarships are available. See www.centerforinquiry.net/education for further information. 7. Center for Inquiry to Offer Master's Degree through SUNY-Buffalo The Center for Inquiry is partnering with the State University of New York at Buffalo to develop an innovative Master's degree entitled "Science and the Public," which may be available as soon at Fall 2005. The first degree of its kind, CFI's interdisciplinary M.S. in social science will explore the history and philosophy of the scientific outlook and methods as they intersect with public perceptions and attitudes. Drawing on sociological research and philosophical analysis, the program will prepare students for further specialized graduate study in sociology, history and philosophy of science, psychology, religious studies, science communication, public policy, and science education, as well as careers in research, education, public administration, publishing, and science journalism. Questions about the Master's degree program, or the new annual CFI/SUNY visiting research fellowships, may be sent to the director of research and education for CFI, Dr. Austin Dacey, at adacey@centerforinquiry.net. 8. Book of the Month Creationism's Trojan Horse, by Barbara Carroll Forrest and Paul R. Gross Oxford University Press, 2003 In Creationism's Trojan Horse, Forrest and Gross examine in full detail the claims and operations of the “Intelligent Design” movement, the most recent manifestation of American creationism. Explaining and analyzing what “design theorists” call their “Wedge Strategy,” they document the Wedge’s aggressive political and public relations campaigning. The most notable feature of the movement’s purportedly new scientific paradigm is an abject failure to produce scientific data in support of its claims or even a coherent research program. Instead, the Wedge maintains a crowded nationwide schedule of lectures, popular publications for its mostly conservative Christian constituency, and media appearances, all sustained by generous funding from religious benefactors. The Wedge has intruded itself efficiently into educational politics at local, state, and national levels. Forrest and Gross detail efforts of intelligent design proponents to influence science standards in Kansas and Ohio, and to influence federal education legislation through the so-called "Santorum amendment" of the 2001 No Child Left Behind Act. They demonstrate the continuity of intelligent design with traditional creationism, including all the scientific claims, exposing its religious core and purposes. By displaying the movement’s alliance with Religious Right extremism, the book reveals the significance of William Dembski’s statement that the intelligent design movement’s challenge to the “evolutionary naturalism of Darwin” is “ground zero of the culture war."

===

As there is a Skeptics meeting approaching quickly, I am putting
together a
short information sheet that will give a brief overview of what
some Church
of Scientology beliefs and standpoints are.

Scientology is a new religion that professes to have isolated
fundamental
laws of life and for the first time in human history developed a workable
technology that can be applied to ones life in order to become happier and
healther.

Scientology is supposedly the first real time man has applied the scientific
method to solving spiritual questions. They probe questions such as Who are
we? What do we consist of? Where do we come from? Where are we going? What
are we doing?

Scientologists claim that man is a spiritual being with more
than flesh and blood. They say that man is basically good rather than basically
evil. Scientology espouses that man advances to the degree that he
retains spiritual integrity and deteriorates to the degree that he
compromises his spiritual integrity.

Due to man being basically good he can improve his spiritual lot
in life. He can reach a point where he becomes capable of sorting out the
factors in his life that effect him positively and negatively.

Dianetics is a book written by L. Ron Hubbard, the developer of
Scientology,
that helps one understand what the source of life is itself. Man
does not have a spirit, man is a spirit that has a body and a mind.
Dianetics helps provide relief from unwanted sensations and emotions accidents
and psychosomatic illnesses.

They believe that drugs are the plague of modern society and
have ruined countless millions of lives since the 1960's. They believe that
drug use is often a symptom of a larger spiritual problem in life which the
individual is unwilling or unable to cope with.

Scientology according to Scientologists is applied religious
philosophy and if you follow the tenets of Scientology you will improve as a
person.

I have never actually met a scientologist in real life, it
should be interesting to see what these people will want to talk to us
about.

Campus Inquirer is published monthly by the Campus Freethought Alliance, a campus outreach program of the Center for Inquiry, promoting reason, science, free inquiry, and church-state separation in education. ----------------------------------------------------------- Notes from the Field by Zachary Miner As the newest member of the Center for Inquiry's staff, I have spent a good deal of my time getting acquainted with the organization and its various branches and programs, learning about the history and future plans, and further immersing myself in the issues surrounding reason, science and freethought on college campuses. So it was with a lot of excitement that I took my first fieldwork trip to speak to campus and community groups about the Center for Inquiry and its various programs of public education and advocacy and how they can get involved in helping us advance our common agenda. The members of our affiliated group at Ohio State University, where I first spoke, were very friendly and interested in my talk on religion on campus (about the proper use of the Christian and Hebrew Bible in education) and asked several great questions afterwards. The same thing happened at my next talk - a meeting of PA Non-believers in York, PA. I spoke on "New Religious Threats to American Freedoms," highlighting current movements on the far right that seek to "take back the country from the godless and immoral secular humanists." All in all, it was great to get to meet people who are so committed to our aims of promoting reason, science and freedom of inquiry and secular ethical alternatives to the reigning mythologies of the day. I especially appreciated hearing everyone's informed opinions on important issues such as the Newdow Pledge case, battles over Ten Commandments monuments, and the current presidential race. I am very excited to be a part of the "inquiry movement" on college campuses at this time in history. The revolutionary/progressive spirit of the 1960s and 1970s -- the optimism that people could make the world a better place in the here and now through education -- seemed to founder somewhat under the Reagan and Bush administrations and remained dormant during the Clinton years, due in part to Generation X's having been affected by the spirit of the times. But with the election debacle of 2000, the religiously motivated attacks of 9/11, and the subsequent attacks by right-wing idealogues on civil liberties, I think that American citizens are beginning to sit up and take notice in a way they hadn't done for years. People seem to be starting to realize that the future of the country really does rest in the hands of the people, and it pays to stand up and make your voice heard. This is a theme which can be seen reflected in the rise of Howard Dean from a second-tier virtual unknown to a genuine presidential contender, as well as the millions of dollars raised by the home-grown campaign of the Internet upstart MoveOn.org. We've had many exiting events over the last few months. In addition to my talks in Ohio and upcoming talks throughout Tennessee and Nebraska, DJ Grothe, director of Campus and Community Programs recently gave a campus-wide talk at the College of Charleston on the proper role of religion in education. He highlighted current controversies such as the intelligent design movement, school prayer, religious movements that seek to replace the classical liberal arts curriculum, and controversies surrounding student activities fees, to 500 students, primarily from the College of Charleston's political science and religious studies departments. He also focused on practical strategies for engaging in the current debate over the role of religion in public education. CFI's Austin Dacey will be debating influential Christian apologist William Lane Craig later this month at Purdue University, and there are many other upcoming events, all of which will be listed on our website, www.campusinquirer.org. Also, we're very pleased to announce that six student-only scholarships will be available for the upcoming "Science and Ethics" conference in Toronto (see the official announcement below). So, this is just to say that I am very excited to be working through the Center for Inquiry and its various public education initiatives to help focus the energy present on college campuses today toward the goals of defending the scientific outlook and exploring its implications for the sacred cows in society. If you're interested in helping us with our goals of promoting freethought and the scientific outlook in our educational system (the goal of CFI's campus outreach program), visit our website at www.campusinquirer.org and join us, for free! You'll get free organizing and educational materials in the mail, and be informed about how you can help out on your campus. And please do not hesitate to e-mail me at zminer@centerforinquiry.net or call me at the Center For Inquiry at 716-636-7571, ext. 315. I look forward to hearing your input and to your getting more involved. Best wishes! Zachary Miner Campus Organizer Center for Inquiry ----------------------------------------------------------- Grants Available for Upcoming CFI Conference CFA is pleased to announce that it will make available six grants of $350 each for students who wish to attend the Center for Inquiry's upcoming conference in Toronto entitled, "Science and Ethics: How Scientific Inquiry Helps Frame Value Judgments" being held May 13th through the 16th. The grants are intended to help defray the costs of attending the conference, such as travel expenses, registration and hotel accommodations. This conference will challenge the assumption that science and the scientific method cannot help frame rational moral judgment. Conference participants will help bring to the fore a renewed challenge to integrate ethics and the sciences. Speakers include Susan Jacoby, Vern Bullough, I. Louis Horowitz, John Novak, Owen Flanagan, Paul Kurtz, Barry Beyerstein, Bernard Patten, David B. Resnik, Christopher W. DiCarlo, Bill Rottschaefer, Sanal Edamaruku, Donald B. Calne, Wallace Sampson, Oliver Curry, Jillian Scott McIntosh, and James Alcock. Conference grants will be awarded to current CFA student members, and preference will be given to those who would be unable to attend the conference without financial assistance from CFA. Students wishing to apply for a CFA conference grant should send an e-mail with the following information to DJ Grothe at djgrothe@centerforinquiry.net: Name Address Phone Number E-mail address College/University Attending A short (250 words or less) narrative about why you feel you should receive this scholarship.

At Global, people will be thinking, discussing, skills-sharing, acting-out, painting, and debating issues directly and indirectly dealing with corporate and cultural globalization. Info: While the focus of GLOBAL TWO is on issues pertaining to corporate globalization and economics, many of the workshops deal with philosophy, DIY tactics & skills, and activism. Also, there will be several different “discussion gatherings”. The discussion gatherings will deal with topics such as planning for upcoming actions (IMF/Worldbank, G8, and RNC) to figuring out ways of incorporating radical ideas into everyday life (i.e. it is easy to complain about corporate globalization, but how do we stop corporate globalization when we directly benefit from it?) to discussing ideologies and their influence on the anti-corporate globalization movement. Various actions, lectures, concerts and art shows will precede the week before the conference starts. At the conference, there will be spaces to create art, play instruments, show films, present writing, create puzzles, and anything else which comes to our minds inbetween now and the conference. The first night of the conference, there will be one major fiesta in the name of having fun. On Saturday, there will be another party and concert with the group Ghostmice and Robert Blake.

Campus Inquirer is published monthly by the Campus Freethought Alliance, a campus outreach program of the Center for Inquiry, promoting reason, science, free inquiry, and church-state separation in education. ----------------------------------------------------------- CFI Science and Ethics Conference To Be Held in Toronto CFI is now accepting registrations for its upcoming conference, Science and Ethics: How Scientific Inquiry Helps Frame Value Judgments. This event will take place from April 13th through April 16th at the Courtyard Marriott in Toronto, Canada. Registration is $159 for adults and $99 for students. For many centuries scientists and philosophers believed that with the advance of scientific knowledge, literacy, and education, humankind could become liberated from ancient fears and superstitions so that a wiser and more humane ethical outlook could develop. It was believed that scientific inquiry could be applied to moral values and modify them in the light of their causes, rational consistency, and a regard for empirical consequences. This viewpoint is sympathetic to the classical attempt to apply reason to conduct, and it is consonant with the Enlightenment goal of achieving human progress. Many people were thus committed to using science to reconstruct the traditional sources of morality and to form entrenched socio-political-economic institutions. First, many religionists hold that without belief in God and in absolute religious commandments, no moral standards are possible (a pre-modern view). Second, postmodernists, while skeptical of religious metaphysics, are likewise skeptical of science, believing that it offers its own mythology and that consequently no progressive emancipation agenda is possible for humanity. Third, many scientists and philosophers have in the past held that science deals with facts and that moral values are based on passions and feelings. Hence, it was held that science cannot help frame rational moral judgment. This conference will challenge these assumptions and bring to the fore a renewed challenge to integrate the sciences and ethics as disciplines. Speakers include Susan Jacoby, Vern Bullough, I. Louis Horowitz, John Novak, Owen Flanagan, Paul Kurtz, Barry Beyerstein, Bernard Patten, David B. Resnik, Christopher W. DiCarlo, Bill Rottschaefer, Sanal Edamaruku, Donald B. Calne, Wallace Sampson, Oliver Curry, Jillian Scott McIntosh, and James Alcock.

TV pundit Bill O'Reilly clearly understands that Mel Gibson's film is a weapon in the cultural war now being waged in America between traditional religionists and secular protagonists-such as the New York Times, Frank Rich, Andy Rooney, and the predominant "cultural elite." Newt Gingrich chortled that the movie may be "the most important cultural event" of the century. James Dobson of Focus on the Family and a bevy of preachers herald it as "the greatest film ever made." Busloads of devoted churchgoers were brought daily to view the film, which portrays the arrest, trial, crucifixion, and death of Jesus with graphic brutality. It is used to stir sympathy for Jesus, who, half naked, suffers violent sadomasochistic whippings at the hands of his persecutors; and it has engendered hostility to Jews, secularists, and separationists who have dared to question Gibson's allegedly scripturally accurate account. The Passion of the Christ reinforces a reality secularists dare not overlook: more than ever before, the Bible has become a powerful political force in America. The Religious Right is pulling no punches in order to defeat secularism and, it hopes, transform the United States into a God-fearing country that salutes "one nation under God" and opposes gay marriages and the "liberal agenda." The interjection of religion into the public square (which in fact was never empty) by powerful religious and political forces has ominous implications. James Madison, framer of the Constitution, rightfully worried about factions disrupting civil society, and religious factions can be the most fractious. Movies are a powerful medium. Film series including Star Wars, The Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Star Trek, The Terminator, and The Matrix all draw upon fantasy; and these have proved to be highly entertaining, captivating, and huge box office hits. The Passion of the Christ, however, is more than that, for it lays down a gauntlet challenging basic democratic secular values. It also presents fantasy as fact, and for the unaware and the credulous, this is more than an exercise in poetic license; it is artistic and historical dishonesty. A Distorted Version of the Bible According to Mel Gibson, The Passion of the Christ is "a true and faithful rendition of the Gospels." This is hardly the case. For there are numerous occasions when it presents extra-Biblical material not found in the New Testament, and when it distorts the Biblical account. Gibson uses poetic license with abandon. Commentators have pointed out that Gibson distorts the character of Pontius Pilate, making him seem to be a tolerant, benevolent, and fair-minded judge-when independent non-Christian historical texts indicate that he was a mean-spirited political opportunist. The film also portrays Pilate's wife Claudia as a kind of heroine. She is sympathetic to Jesus and thinks his punishment is unjust; there is some textual basis for that in the Bible. But Gibson goes beyond this in his portrayal, for Claudia acts kindly to Mary and Mary Magdalene at one point in the film, approaching them with a gift of linen cloths. Gibson has Mary use them to wipe pools of blood from the spot where Jesus was flogged by the Romans. Nowhere are these scenes found in any of the four Gospels. Church historian Elaine Pagels has said that it is "unthinkable" that Jewish women would have sought or received any sympathy or succor from the Romans. Nor do the Gospels provide any support for the severe beatings of Jesus by the Jewish soldiers and guards who arrest him in the Garden of Gethsemane prior to those inflicted by the Romans. In one gruesome scene, as Jewish troops bring Jesus back to Jerusalem heavily bound, they constantly beat him and at one point, even throw him off a bridge. There is no account of this in the Gospels. It is tossed in to underscore the brutality of the captors. All the Gospels say is that a large crowd sent by the priests came to the garden to arrest Jesus. There was a scuffle and Jesus told his Disciples to lay down their swords. (Here as elsewhere, Jesus does not seem to be a part of his own cultural and religious Jewish milieu; both he and his followers are consistently characterized as renegades and "other" than their social environment.) Matthew 26:57 states: "Jesus was led off under arrest to the house of Caiaphas the High Priest." Mark 14:53 reads: "Then they led Jesus away to the High Priest's house." Luke 22:54: "Then they arrested Him and led Him away." John's version in 18:12: "The troops with their commander and the Jewish police, now arrested Him and secured Him. They took Him first to Annas... the father-in-law of Caiaphas."(1) If Jesus' abuse by the Jewish guards did not come from scriptures, where did Gibson borrow it?-from the supposed revelations of a Catholic nun and mystic, Anne Catherine Emmerich. Indeed, much of Passion is taken from Emmerich's book first published in 1833, known in English as The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ. The current edition proudly asserts on its jacket that it is "the classic account of Divine Revelation that inspired" the Mel Gibson motion picture.(2) Emmerich, a passionate devotee of the practice of meditating on the "sacred wounds of Jesus," described how after Jesus was arrested, he was tightly bound, constantly struck, dragged, and made to walk with bare feet on jagged rocks. Let us focus on a bridge, which they soon reached, and which Gibson depicts in the film. Emmerich states, "I saw our Lord fall twice before He reached the bridge, and these falls were caused entirely by the barbarous manner in which the soldiers dragged Him; but when they were half over the bridge they gave full vent to their brutal inclinations, and struck Jesus with such violence that they threw Him off the bridge into the water.... If God had not preserved Him, He must have been killed by this fall" (p. 71). I refer here to this scene only to show that Gibson went far beyond the texts of the Gospels and inserted nonscriptural events mostly drawn from Emmerich. Remember that these are the subjective visions of a psychic-mystic rendered over 1800 years after the events they concern. I went to see the movie a second time to see if any credit line is given to the Emmerich book at the end of the film. I could find none, a glaring omission. A good deal of the focus of The Passion of the Christ is on the flogging (scourging) of Jesus. Two Gospels state simply that Pilate "had Jesus flogged and handed over to be crucified" (Matthew 27:26, Mark 15:15). John's description agrees (19:1-2): "Pilate now took Jesus and had Him flogged." Luke's account (23:16) has Pilate saying: "I therefore propose to let Him off with a flogging." What the Gospels state matter-of-factly and without narrative elaboration is luridly expanded by Emmerich: First they used "a species of thorny stick covered with knots and splinters. The blows from these sticks tore His flesh to pieces; his blood spouted out..." (p. 135). Then she describes the use of scourges "composed of small chains, or straps covered with iron hooks, which penetrated to the bone and tore off large pieces of flesh at every blow" (p. 135). Moreover, nowhere do the Gospels describe who watched the flogging. Emmerich states that "a Jewish mob gathered at a distance." Gibson has the high priests watching the brutal flogging (with a feminine incarnation of Satan looking on with them). Nowhere is this described in the Bible. Gibson thus goes far beyond the New Testament account, implying that the Jews and their leaders were complicit in the brutal beatings of Jesus. The New Testament account next states that the high priests and crowd in the square before Pilate called for the crucifixion of Jesus, and when given the choice, selected Barabbas to be freed over Jesus. This is fully depicted in Gibson's Passion. The film, however, is silent about the fact that Jesus, his mother Mary, Peter, James, and the other Disciples and supporters in the crowds were themselves Jews. In Emmerich and Gibson the Jews come off as the main enemies of Jesus, provoking the Romans not only to crucify him, but to torture him and inflict maximum suffering. I think the point in the film is even more anti-Jewish: it's that Pilate tries to placate the Jews with the beatings, but they won't be satisfied-some real blood thirstiness here! Is The Passion of the Christ anti-Semitic? Yes, flagrantly so, in my judgment. The Passion repeats the description of the Jews portrayed in medieval art and Passion Plays, which provoked in no small measure anti-Semitic pogroms and persecutions suffered by the "Christ killers" for centuries. Much has been said about the fact that Mel Gibson's 85-year-old father Hutton Gibson is a Holocaust denier. He has been quoted as saying that Vatican II was "a Mason plot backed by the Jews." Mel Gibson removed from the subtitles of the original version of his film the statement from Matthew (27:25-6): "The blood be on us, and on our children," though apparently it remains in the spoken Aramaic text. To his credit, Pope John Paul II in 2000 made an historic apology, declaring that the Jews of today cannot be held responsible for the death of Christ. Still, the Passion film debuts at a time when anti-Semitism is growing worldwide, especially in Europe and throughout the Islamic world. According to scripture (especially the Gospel of John), Christ died on the cross because God sent His only begotten Son to die for our sins; thus, all sinners are responsible, not simply the Jews of ancient Israel. Mel Gibson has himself blamed all sinners for the crucifixion. If this is the case, the crucifixion of Christ had to happen, and was for that matter foretold by Him. Why God was willing to allow His only beloved Son to suffer a horrible death is difficult to fathom, but according to Christian apologetics it was preordained so that those who believed in Christ could be saved. Thus it was God-not the Jews alone or the Romans-who was responsible for the crucifixion of Jesus. One might even say that if this was part of a divine plan, the Jews should get the credit for carrying it out. Is the Biblical Account Reliable? Is the account of Jesus as described in the New Testament-in this case of his trial, crucifixion, and death (let alone his birth, ministry, and resurrection) - an accurate account of historical events? I doubt it. This negative appraisal is drawn from careful, scholarly, and scientific examination of the New Testament account. The key point is the fact that the authors of the Gospels were not themselves eyewitnesses to the events described in these documents. If Jesus died about the year 30 CE (this is conjectural, since some even question whether he ever lived(3)), the Gospel according to Mark was probably written in the 70s of the first century; Matthew and Luke in the 80s; and John anywhere from 90 to 100 CE. They were thus written some 40 to 70 years after the death of Jesus. The Gospels are based on an oral tradition, derived at best from second- and third-hand testimony assembled by the early band of Jewish Christians and including anecdotal accounts, ill-attributed sayings, stories, and parables. The Gospels' claims are not independently corroborated by impartial observers-all the more reason why some skepticism about their factual truth is required. They were not written as history or biography per se-and the authors did not use the methods of careful, historical scholarship. Rather, they were, according to Biblical scholar Randel Helms, written by missionary propagandists for the faith, interested in proclaiming the "good news" and in endeavoring to attract and convert others to Christianity.(4) Hence, the Gospels should not be taken as literally true, but are a form of special pleading for a new ideological-moral-theological faith. In writing the Gospels the authors evidently looked back to the Old Testament and found passages that were suggestive of a Messiah who would appear, who was born of a young woman (or a virgin), and could trace his lineage back to David-which is why Matthew and Luke made such a fuss about having Jesus born in Bethlehem. Accordingly, the Gospels should be read as works of literary art, spun out of the creative imagination, in order to fulfill passionate yearnings for salvation. They are the most influential form of fiction that has dominated Western culture throughout its history. Whether there is any core of truth to them is questionable; for it is difficult to verify the actual facts, particularly since there is no mention of Jesus or of his miraculous healings in any extant non-Christian literature.(5) Tradition has it that Mark heard about Jesus from Peter. Eusebius (260-339 CE) is one source for this claim, but Eusebius wrote some three centuries after the death of Jesus. In any case, Matthew and Luke most likely base their accounts on Mark.(6) The three synoptic Gospels are similar, though they contradict each other on a number of significant events. Scholars believe that some of these were derived from still another literary source (Q or quelle in German, or "source") that has been lost. Another historical fact to bear in mind is that the Gospels were written after a protracted war between the Romans and the Jews (66-74 CE), which saw the destruction of Jerusalem and of the Temple (70 CE). Hundreds of thousands of Jews were killed in these wars and were dispersed throughout the Mediterranean world. Jerusalem was eventually leveled in 135 CE. The synoptic Gospels were influenced by the political conditions at the times of the various authors who wrote the Gospels, not during the years of Jesus. John's Gospel, written somewhat later, reflected the continuing growth of Christianity in his day. The other book attributed to John, Revelation, which is so influential today, predicts the apocalyptic end of the world, the Rapture, and the Second Coming of Jesus. This book in the view of many scholars reflects the ruminations of a disturbed personality. We have no reliable evidence that these events will occur in the future, yet hundreds of millions of people today are convinced that they will - on the basis of sheer faith. Let us consider another part of the historical context in the latter part of the first century, when most of the New Testament was composed. Two Jewish sects contended for dominance. First was Rabbinic Judaism, which followed the Torah with all its commandments and rituals (including circumcision and dietary laws). Drawing on the Old Testament, Rabbinic Judaism held that the Jews were the "chosen people." Once slaves in Egypt, they had escaped to the Promised Land of Palestine. Someday after the Diaspora the Jews would be returned to Israel, and the Temple would be rebuilt. The second sect was early Jewish Christianity, which attempted to appeal not only to Jews but to pagans in the Roman Empire. It could do so effectively only by breaking with Rabbinic Judaism. This is the reason for increasing negative references in the Gospels to "the Jews" (especially in John), blaming them for the crucifixion of Jesus. Christianity was able to make great strides in recruiting converts and competing with other sects, such as the Mithraic religion. But it could only do so by disassociating itself from Rabbinic Judaism. It developed a more universal message, which, incidentally, was already implicit in The Letters of Paul (written some 15 to 20 years after the crucifixion of Jesus): The new Christians did not need to be circumcised nor to practice the dietary laws. Thus, the Biblical texts drawn on in The Passion of the Christ should not be read literally as diatribes against the Jews per se, but rather as the record of a dispute among two Jewish sects competing for ascendancy-between traditional and Christianized Judaism. If one reads the four Gospels side-by-side, as I have done numerous times, one finds many omissions. Evidently their writers never knew Jesus in his own lifetime. Each Gospel was crafted post hoc to satisfy the immediate practical needs of the new Christian churches then developing. They were contrived by human beings who were motivated by the transcendental temptation to believe in Christ as the Son of God and the Savior of mankind. The Gospels thus are historically unreliable, and insofar as The Passion of the Christ used them this is also the case. But Gibson goes even beyond the Gospels, as I have indicated. The Establishment of Christianity I submit that there are two important inferences to draw from this analysis: First, the union of a religious creed with political power can be extremely destructive, especially when that creed is supported by the power of the state or the Empire. It was the conversion of the Emperor Constantine (around 312 CE) that led to the establishment of Christianity as the official religion of the Roman Empire, some three centuries after the crucifixion of Jesus. The "Nicene Creed," which was the product of the counsel of Nicaea (convened in 325 CE), said that Jesus was crucified under Pontius Pilate. It also declared Jesus the divine son of God "in one substance" with the Father. The decision which books should be included in the New Testament was political, determined by the vote of the bishops attending the council of Nicaea. At this and other church councils, various apocryphal books revered by particular Christian communities were omitted from the canonical scriptures. So much for historic objectivity. The Emperor Julian (331-363 CE), a nephew of Constantine and a student of philosophy, became skeptical of Christianity and was prepared to disestablish the Christian church, which he probably would have done had he not been murdered, most likely by a Christian soldier in his army. In any case, Christianity prevailed and the great Hellenic-Roman civilization of the ancient world eventually went into decline. But this occurred in no small measure because of political factors: the grafting of the Bible with the sword, and the establishment of an absolutist Christian creed, intolerant of all other faiths that disagreed, and willing to use any methods to stamp out heresy. By the fifth century more and more of the inhabitants of the Roman Empire became members of Christian churches, which replaced pagan religions. Christianity reigned supreme across Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East. The latter two were overrun by the Muslims in the seventh and eighth centuries, but feudal Europe remained stolidly Christian as it entered into the so-called Dark Ages. Only with the Renaissance, the Reformation, and the development of science and the democratic revolutions of our time was the hegemony of Christianity weakened. The secularization of modern society brought in its wake naturalistic ideas and humanist values. The union of religion and political power has generated terrible religious conflicts historically, pitting Catholics against Protestants, opposing Jihadists versus Crusaders, and triggering constant wars among Christians, Jews, Muslims, Hindus, and others. God save us from God-intoxicated legions which have the power to enforce their convictions on those who disagree! All the more reason to laud the wisdom of the authors of the American Constitution who enacted the Bill of Rights, including the First Amendment, prohibiting the establishment of a religion. Freedom of Inquiry The second inference to be drawn is that the origins of the Christian legend have for too long lain unexamined, buried by the sands of time. The New Testament was taken by believers as given, and no one was permitted to question its sacred doctrines allegedly based on revelations from On High. But skepticism is called for-the same skepticism that should also be applied to the alleged revelations by Moses on Mount Sinai and other prophets of the Old Testament. Orthodox Jews who accept the legend of a "chosen people" and the promise that God gave Israel to the Jews likewise base this conviction on uncorroborated testimony. Today, we have the tools of historical scholarship, Biblical criticism, and science. This is based on two centuries of sophisticated scholarly and scientific inquiries. These enable us to use circumstantial evidence, archaeology, linguistic analysis, and textual criticism to authenticate or disconfirm the veracity of ancient literary documents. Regrettably, the general public is almost totally unaware of this important research. Similarly for the revelations of Muhammad and the origins of Islam in the Qur'an. Since they are similarly uncorroborated by independent eyewitnesses, they rest on similarly questionable foundations. There is again a rich literature of skeptical scrutiny. But most scholars are fearful of expressing their dissenting conclusion. The so-called books of Abraham-the Old and New Testaments, and the Qur'an-need to be scrutinized by rational and scientific analyses. And the results of these inquiries need to leave the academy and be read and digested more widely. Unfortunately, freedom of inquiry had rarely been applied to the foundations of the "sacred texts." Indeed, until recently severe punishment of religious dissenters was the norm in many parts of the world. Given the tremendous box office success of Mel Gibson's film, there are bound to be other Jesus movies produced - for Jesus sells in America! The Passion of the Christ unfortunately may add to intolerance of dissenters; and this may severely endanger the fragility of social peace. It may further help to undermine the First Amendment's prohibition of the establishment of religion, which has been the mainstay of American democracy. This indeed is the most worrisome fallout that the Gibson film is likely to produce. Endnotes: 1. These translations are from The New English Bible, Cambridge University Press, 1961. 2.

There's a few things I should mention as this quarter starts: Due to problems with scheduling, meetings this quarter will be held on the 1st and 3rd Monday of the month (rather than 2nd and 4th) starting at 5:00 at Baba Budan's on Calhoun Street. So that puts meetings on: April 5 April 19 May 3 May 17 Speaking of meetings... Mark your calenders- on Monday, April 5th, Skeptics will host a discussion on gay rights and Cincinnati's Article XII (an amendment to the city charter saying that homosexuals cannot be a protected group). Representatives from the group Citizens to Restore Fairness will be on hand to join in the fray. You won't want to miss it! Spring quarter is also traditionally election time for Skeptics, so be thinking about what you might want to run for. Officers include President, Vice President, Treasurer, and Secretary. This year, we also had a PR/ recruiting secretary, Flyer committee, Website master, scheduler, and At-Large officer. At any rate, elections will be held at the end of April, so be thinking now.

Representatives from both pro- and anti- Article XII groups will be in attendance, and it should make for interesting debate and a good time. I should also take a moment to mention that, to my knowledge, UC Skeptics is neither officially for or against Article XII or any other issue. The purpose of Skeptics is to act as a last refuge for free thought in an otherwise conformist world. Members and guests are encouraged to listen to the arguments presented and decide for themselves what is right and what is wrong. Thanks to Ben for pointing that out. One more thing- I've been informed via email that the Objectivist/ Global debate originally scheduled for this weekend has been cancelled. I was unaware of this when I sent out my last email. My apologies. That's all for now. See you Monday!

At 12:15pm, various UC students will meet at McMicken Commons to have a mock protest. The protest is occuring due to the recent increase in tuition. Students will dress up in their cool "blue blood" clothing (i.e. stereotypical rich kids. Sweater tied around the neck, oxfords, etc, you know the drill) and hold up signs such as "New Buildings = Better Education", "Higher Tuition is fun", "New Gyms are needed to house the History Department", etc, etc. The event will be fun and spontaneous. We will probably have a 20 minute rally at McMicken Commons and then march over to the dinning hall bubble. So come one, come all. Find out the real reasons why tuition is rising. ===== Peace, Love, and Solidarity, - Yasin Frank Southall __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Elections will be held on MONDAY, APRIL 26, at 5:30 at Baba's. This is not during a regular meeting time (FYI)- it's a special meeting just for elections. If this creates a problem for someone, let me know. We'll still be having our regular meeting on this coming Monday (April 17), at 5:30 (time changed). That said, here's how the elections will go: 1. Anyone interested in being an officer (see list below) will need to sign up to run at our regularly scheduled meeting this Monday or will need to email me with their interests by 12:00 Midnight on Sunday the 25th (the night before the meeting). You may run for as many offices as you like. 2. Elections will take place on Monday the 25th. Beginning with president, each candidate will have a maximum of 5 minutes to make a speech and answer questions. 3. As I mentioned, you may run for as many positions as you want, but it is assumed that you will accept the first position you are elected to (ie. if you are running for VP and secretary and you win the VP spot, we expect you to take the VP position). 4. Officers will be elected in the following order: President, Vice President, Secretary (and associate secretary), Treasurer. At the same meeting, we'll form the flyer-maker group and the website/ email administration group. Here's a summary of the responsibilities for each position President: calls/ officiates regular meetings and planning meetings, serves as liason between Skeptics, SAB, and the University, communicates necessary/ pertinent information to the group, oversees welfare of the group Vice President: coordinates planning and activities for the group (or oversees committees doing so), assumes responsibilities of the president when president is unable (or asks for help) Treasurer: oversees financial management of group, ensures that the group is in compliance with SAB/ university policies on funding Secretary: takes minutes/ notes at meetings, maintains a roster and contact list of group members, Associate Secretary/ PR/ Recruitment: works to bring new people into the group, ensures that group members are happy SO, IN SUMMARY: -We'll be meeting Monday. Start time has been pushed back to 5:30, but feel free to come early -Elections will be on April 26th at 5:30 at Baba's -If you want to be an officer, email me or sign up at Monday's meeting If you have any problems or questions, let me know.
