Here are the unfolding details about the Hitchens/Wilson book tour/debate, as I understand those details. I will be with Christopher Hitchens next Wednesday (October 29) at King’s College in the Empire State Building at twelve noon. This will be a book signing event in a town hall style meeting, hosted by Marvin Olasky, who is the provost of the college there. That evening Christopher will be debating a rabbi somewhere (I think), and I will be answering questions at 8 pm for the atheist/agnostic clubs for Columbia and NYU. I don’t know the venue for that. I assume someone is going to just take me there. Hope so anyway.
The next evening, October 30, we will be in Philadelphia hosted by Westminster Seminary at 6:30 pm. The moderator for that event will be Scott Oliphant, the professor of apologetics there at Westminster. That will be more of a traditional debate. I believe this will be the event with the most room.
The final event of the tour will be on Friday, the 31st, in Georgetown in the DC area, at a place called Martin’s Tavern. This debate will be from 2:30 to 4:30 in the afternoon. Because the seating there is limited (only room for 100), here is some very important information on that. Admittance will be on the basis of your name being on a guest list, and applications to get on that list need to be made to this address: hitchens.vs.wilson@gmail.com — and if you make it onto that list, you will receive confirmation of that fact.
If you can’t make it to any of these events, please pray for us. There will be a camera crew accompanying us everywhere, and a documentary of the whole thing is being made. If you have to wait for the video, you should have a great seat, and you will make it to all the events on the tour. But if you can make it in person, it will be great to see you there.
