Russian Humanists open International Summer School

Dear Paul,

Let me inform you that at the present time the International Summer school is going in Moscow suburb. 24 people came to the Inquiry Center/Russia to study Secular Humanism, critical thinking, and discuss the prospect of the New Enlightenment in Russia and over the world. Four lecturers work with the participants that are Andrzejy Dominochak (CSF-Poland), Floris van den Berg (CSF-Law Countries), Valerii Kuvakin (CFI-Russia), and Prof Dmitry Leont'ev (Moscow State University). I am happy to say that we are doing very well. During 10 days we plan to have the classes, round tables, and free discussions. Students from Russia and other countries like it wery much.

Participants ask me to send the photo to you. I am doing that with the great respect and best wishes.

Yours,

Valerii
