This concept of going beyond the argument is a really important part of our God Debate series. Arguable (irony intended) the most important part.

The sexy part, the part I’m personally really looking forward to most, is having Dr Lamoureux down to talk about Jesus + Evolution this Sunday night because I really feel there are far too many people who see science and evolution as some kind of barrier to exploring the Jesus story. For those of us that not only accept, but are fascinated by, and find beauty in, a concept like evolution, I think it’s important to acknowledge that this doesn’t have to be a barrier to spirituality. I may write some more thoughts about this later but the ability to move past the argument and past sound bites is, in my opinion, the more important concept for us to understand as a community, because the skill with which we do that will determine our ability to engage in meaningful dialogue regardless of where we personally stand on the “issues”. Without that we run the risk, in a very real way, of missing the point.
