Pro ID Steve Meyer. No ID Larry Krauss.

As noted here, and live streamed:

Note: The University of Toronto has been fairly open-minded in hosting these types of events.

One remembers – with some distress – a disgraceful scene at U Texas Amarillo (2013) where the admin totally caved to some nondescript Darwin troll displaying his asshat.

But, come to think of it, Toronto is a world class city (Economist ranks it best place to live) and it is a long way from Amarillo. Maybe it should stay a long way away.

Presser below:

Comments
Meyer had better watch himself here. Lamoureux, like most Theistic Evolutionists, would side with the devil rather than respectfully engage with an advocate of ID.tbotss

They only call it a world class city because it fulfills left wing agendas. Its great to have the thing. A theo phy taking on a biology subject does mean specialty is not the point. However Meyer should be able to make a great case despite that.Robert Byers
