Dr. Richard Carrier: Key Note Speaker
Presentation: Did Jesus Even Exist? A Historian Challenges the Consensus
Did Jesus begin life only in the dreams and visions of the earliest Christians? Was he placed in history only decades later?
Hemant Mehta
Presentation: Skeptics can be gullible, too!
It turns out that atheists are often no better at fact-checking the information we hear and spread than the general public. Shouldn't we be better? This talk will give examples and suggestions as to how we can improve our skeptical abilities.
James Kirk Wall
Presentation: Defending Reason from Idiots and Frauds
How do we know what is true? How do we defend logic from those who are shamelessly ignorant? How do we defend reason from those who intentionally spread misinformation and are well skilled in debate? This presentation will address statements and arguments by Kevin Sorbo, Ken Ham, and Glenn Beck against the reasonable positions of science and atheism.
