‘Rise of the Nones’ is topic of Monday’s LACI lecture

All are invited to join us for the Liberal Arts and Critical Issues lecture this Monday, March 3, as David Gutterman, associate professor of politics at Willamette University, speaks from 7 to 8 p.m. in Hoover 105. The presentation ties into our theme “State of the World.”

Gutterman will speak on the topic “Believe it or Not: The Rise of the Nones and the Future of Religion in the United States.” During the last 20 years there has been a dramatic rise in the percentage of religiously unaffiliated citizens in the U.S. In this lecture, Gutterman will discuss who the “nones” are, what they believe, and what the rise of the “nones” suggests about the future of religion and politics in this country.

The same session is presented from 4:40 to 5:40 p.m.; however, it is recommended that the general public attend the evening session, if possible.

Questions? Contact Paul Otto at ext. 2676 or potto@georgefox.edu.
