Britain's What's On Event Guide
Sheffield Skeptics in the Pub
Sheffield Skeptics in the Pub was founded in December 2009 and is a good way for people from all walks of life to hear from experts and discuss with them important issues that affect us all, while enjoying their favourite beverage. Meetings are held every third Monday of the month at Farm Road Sports & Social Club, Farm Road, Sheffield S2 2TP. There is no need to book and no entrance fee, but a voluntary donation of £3 is welcome to cover speaker's expenses and room hire. Parking is free.
Our April 2024 event is hosted by Sheffield Humanists and is a presentation by Michael Heap, a retired psychologist and the principal organiser of Sheffield Skeptics in the Pub. This presentation is entitled Science and Religion. ‘For centuries, much has been written and debated about science and religion. Questions persist regarding the nature of their relationship, whether they are complementary in some way, whether they are simply incompatible, and whether one overrides the other.’ Michael will argue that the key issue is how individuals themselves reconcile these conflicts based on their own life experiences and what 'religion' and 'science' mean to them. Members of the audience will be invited to make their own contributions to this debate.
