We're shaking things up this month! Due to our usual venue being unavailable, we're meeting at the Orlando Shakespeare Theater—same day (3rd Sunday), same time (2:00 PM), exciting new location!
David Williamson, Co-founder of the Central Florida Freethought Community, and Danny de Armas, Senior Associate Pastor at First Baptist Church of Orlando, will tackle one of America's most debated topics head-on: the separation of religion and government. Expect these friends to dive deeply into contentious issues such as prayer in schools, religious symbols on public property, and government funding for religious organizations. After eight years, they've passionately agreed, firmly disagreed, and always come back for more.
This isn't a debate about theology—it's a friendly exploration of common ground and civil discourse on where we differ. Expect honesty, warmth, and some laughs as Danny and David share insights into how friendship can thrive despite differing worldviews.
Come join the conversation, broaden your perspective, and enjoy an afternoon of dialogue and discovery at the Orlando Shakes!
