Join us for an evening of fun, a potluck, and a great talk from Aron Ra. He will be discussing the topic of his new book "Foundational Falsehoods of Creationism", and will follow it up with a book sale and signing as well as a meet-and-greet.

WARNING!! This is going to be a full house event which means the parking lot will most definitely be overflowing. There is additional parking to the West on Cherry Street (toward the school) and just to the North (across Rio Salado Pkwy, up Date and to the left) which is 8th Place (strangely also known as Cherry). Check the map link above for more details.

Aron Ra is President of Atheist Alliance of America, former Texas' State Director of American Atheists, the host of the Ra-Men podcast, and director of the Phylogeny Explorer Project. Aron (pronounced as 'R.N.') is one of the "YouTube atheists" and an advocate for rationalism in science classrooms. His videos promote science education and secular humanism, often focusing on evolution and the evidence indicating an interrelated tree of life. His series summarizing the 'Foundational Falsehoods of Creationism' among others have been mirrored, featured, referenced, and recommended by many professional scientists, secularists, and educators, and has attracted more than 130,000 subscribers to his YouTube channel.

The doors will open by 6:00 pm for the potluck but for those bringing food, there will be people there setting up by 5:00 pm so you can bring the food in early if you want. If you want to participate in the potluck, be sure to bring a dish! The meeting will start at 7:00 pm and after Aron's talk, we will resume the potluck, have a book signing, and a meet-and-greet with Aron. The meeting will officially end by 10:00 pm
