"Removing the divide between science and the Bible"


Meetings

  • Saturday, June 7, 2008 is the next RTB Houston Chapter Meeting:
    • "RTB's Approach to Controversial Issues in Science & Politics"
  • Meeting Agenda:
      9:00-9:15 AM - Coffee and Donuts
      9:15-10:15 AM - The Great Global Warming Swindle video
      10:15-11:00 AM - Discussion: Expelled & Global Warming

    • By this time, most of you have probably seen the movie Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed. You may also be aware that RTB does not promote or endorse the movie (see "RTB Scholars Expound on Expelled"). Another controversial topic is global warming: Are humans the primary cause of the current rise in temperatures? There are many conservatives (both Christian and secular) who believe this is not true, and that the leaders of the environmental movement have other objectives in promoting this idea. RTB has not jumped on either band wagon and counsels a cautious approach before implementing radical "solutions." At the meeting we'll watch the controversial video The Great Global Warming Swindle. The main event for the meeting is the discussion that follows the video. Join us and be prepared to give your "two cents worth."

  • Meeting Location:
      First Presbyterian Church, (5300 Main St., Houston, TX 77004) in "FH 259." Click on the date above for a map and further event information.

    RTB Houston Chapter Mission Statement

    The Houston Chapter will represent Reasons To Believe in the greater Houston area, and contribute both human and financial resources to the overall ministry. We will strive to serve the entire local Church by working to fulfill the following missions:

    1. Educate both Christians and non-Christians on "Two Books" theology:

    • That there is harmony between God's inerrant Word (the Bible) and His "book" of creation, but that human interpretation of either can be faulty;
    • That ultimate causes in nature can never be fully understood apart from God's revelation in the Bible;
    • That scientific discoveries can improve our understanding of the Bible by providing a means of testing alternative interpretations;
    • That the pursuit truth in both areas is facilitated by a broad education, sound reasoning, an open mind, a cooperative spirit, and a willingness to test interpretations.

    2. Equip Chapter Members to lovingly and effectively communicate these truths to both Christians and non-Christians
