END OF THE SEASON, END OF THE YEAR, END OF THE EARTH? From our guest
speaker, Rev. Jim Conn: I have long thought that the universe we
can now “see”, through the gift of technology, mirrors the microcosm that we
can now “see” through other technological tools. What I fear is the
loss of connection between those two spheres in the heart of the one who sees
them. Bob Johnson will moderate.
January 20 –-
CAMPAIGNS INC., How politics became big business. Campaigns Inc.,
founded in 1933, marks the shift of political power from party bosses to
political consulting firms; power gained not by votes but by money. It
revolutionized how we do politics and impacts issues of today. Moderator:
Linda Klein
