Descripción
The Center for Inquiry Announces "Positively Secular," a special winter  
2009 educational session in Los Angeles, CA

What is the naturalistic alternative to religion? How is scientific inquiry  
relevant to day-to-day life? How can secularism be protected and expanded?  
These questions, representing issues central to CFI's mission and message,  
will be thoroughly explored, especially as they relate to today's culture  
wars, when the Center for Inquiry brings its Institute to Los Angeles for a  
special winter January 2009 session.

The courses offered January 7-11, 2009 are organized around the  
theme "Positively Secular," and will explain skepticism, scientific  
naturalism, constitutional secularism, and the replacement of religion by  
humanist ethics.

The sessions include Day, Evening, and Weekend modules. Attend all three  
modules for an integrated and in-depth understanding of the worldview of  
secular humanism. The Center for Inquiry will award a Certificate of  
Proficiency in Humanist Studies for attendance of all three modules.
