Humanists of Greater Portland Meetup

God Is Disappointed In You

Mar 9, 2014 · 10:00 AM
Friendly House

Mark Russell will cover the entire Bible from the Garden of Eden to the destruction of the Earth in a fun, earthy, and irreverent slide show. He will read short selections from his book, “God Is Disappointed in You.”

Mark Russell is a writer, cartoonist, and playwright living in Portland. He is also the author of “The Superman Stories,” and “Traveling to Mars for Fun and Profit.” His educational credentials are nothing that would impress you.

We make it worth your while to get up early on Sunday morning.

Programs are presented in four broad areas relevant to Humanism:

Human Well Being

Science/Reason

Secularism

Humanities, Culture, and Morality

Excellent. Just the right mix of intelligence & mirth for a Sunday morning. Thought the speaker fielded the Q&A well.
