The backbone of the Symposium consists of 5 evenings where a different local Science expert talks about his or her area of expertise in an interactive, hands-on, family-friendly presentation for 50 minutes, followed by 10-15 minutes of questions from the audience.
There is NO religion at the Symposium.
No Evolution, No Scriptures,
