We would like to invite you all to our 1st MOV(i)E IT! Cinema Committee Session of Winter Semester 2008/2009. It will take place next Wednesday, November 05th 2008, 19:45 @ Pi-Haus (Beethovenstrasse 5; if you still have no idea where it is, feel free to contact us!)
For this session, our topic is the role of religion in society. We will show a documentary called “The Root of All Evil? – The God Delusion”, written and presented by Richard Dawkins. The documentary looks at religion from a scientific perspective. Dawkins, a well known British scientist and popular writer with a very critical view on religion claims that religion stands in fundamental opposition to modern science and the scientific method, and is divisive and dangerous.
Dawkins’ opinion about religion does not reflect the position of the Cinema Committee as a group. The members of the Cinema Committee present a variety of religious backgrounds from Atheists to Christians of different confessions and Muslims and therefore hold individually very different views on the importance of religion in society and in personal life. Nevertheless we decided to show this documentary because it takes a strong position and thus provides a good incentive to discuss religion in a hopefully open atmosphere.
We are looking forward to seeing you.
The Cinema committee
