We are attempting to revamp our website and to make communication among members for discussion a bit easier. We are therefore trying out google groups as a mechanism for dialog. Visit this group at https://groups.google.com/d/forum/chr-astro
To post to this group, send email to chr-astro@googlegroups.com
You need to be subscribed to the list in order to read and post. Visit the group at the above website to request access.
The list is currently moderated. Please pay attention to the following guidelines when posting to the list.
Appropriate Posts
Posts should be restricted to items of particular interest for Christians in astronomy in line with the purposes of the list.
For example:
- organizing gatherings at astronomy conferences
- announcements about Christian academic conferences
- recommendation of useful resources on topics of science & faith
- advertisements for jobs in astronomy at Christian institutions
- integrating the Christian faith into the teaching of astronomy courses
- keeping astronomy textbook writers accountable for philosophical/religious comments
- Christian responses to astronomy articles and popular books, particularly when these go beyond science
- possible astronomical events recorded in the Bible
- church outreach talks or Sunday school classes on astronomy
- sharing the Christian faith with astronomy colleagues
- how chr-astro can be a Christian influence in the astronomy community
Note that this list is representative but not complete! Be creative.
Inappropriate Posts and Use of Posts
This is intended to be a fairly low-volume list, and thus it is important to stay away from extended dialogues. There are many forums (electronic and otherwise) for discussion of science & faith issues in general and creation/evolution issues in particular. Posts with long questions or opinion statements on creation/evolution should be sent to another list rather than to chr-astro. Posts intended for one or a few subscribers should be directed to those individuals, not to the entire list.
Messages posted to chr-astro are intended to be read by others on the list. Please do NOT forward, quote, or paraphrase someone else's writing to people outside the list without the express permission of the author.
