Why Science Works

From the venue:

The Atlanta Freethought Society presents its resident amateur historian, Paul Broman, for a talk titled Why Science Works.  Join us for a presentation on how and why science works, with history from the first ancient healers to today's modern sytematic, self-correcting system that allowed humanity to discover so many astonishing truths about our natural world.  This includes discussing problems that have been identified with scientific methods over the course of history and how science adapted.

Paul will also discuss the increasing danger of science denial, which began centuries ago with disagreement over whether the earth revolves around the sun and today has found its way into disputes over evolution, climate change, vaccines, and even genders.

Paul is a life member of AFS who is curious and enjoys research of interest to freethinkers.  His earlier talks were titled Whatever Happened to Deism?  and The Decline of Natural Theology.
