Similar to Theology on Tap, a Lumen event is when we host a young adult or outside speaker, but also chant night prayer together (called “Compline”) with the Dominican Friars. This is followed by our social, when we share a refreshing pint of beer or non-alcoholic drink.

This week, Conrad Reynoldson will give a talk entitled “Medieval Myth-conceptions: The Galileo Affair”. Was Galileo persecuted or prosecuted or both? The controversy surrounding Galileo has sparked intense debate for centuries. But how much of it is myth vs fact? Frassati’s own, Conrad Reynoldson will discuss the myths (or “myth-conceptions”) surrounding what happened to Galileo and help put everything into historical context.

The speaker begins at 7pm sharp (plan to arrive a bit early) and the pub social ends at 10pm.

*** If you plan to leave before 10PM, you MUST park at UW parking lot N5 (5 min walk away), or else your car will be double parked in.

RSVP is not required
