DESCRIPTION:Join scholars from the UK\, US and Scandinavia as we celebrat
 e the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who with a wide-ranging examination of 
 the way it has dealt with (and been used by) religion and religious orga
 nisations. Over the show’s long history on television religion and relig
 ious themes have consistently been a subject of interest. From early dep
 ictions of Buddhism and paganism to recent years in which the show has b
 een accused of being both messianic and overtly Atheistic\, religion has
  always played an important role on Doctor Who. Topics discussed will ra
 nge from the show's treatment of demons to its portrayal of Buddhism and
  its use a tool in teaching Religious Studies in school and universities
 . Caroline Symcox\, writer of Doctor Who audios "The Council of Nicaea" 
 and "Season of Fear" as well as a Church of England minister\, will be o
 ffering our keynote speech. This promises to be an event that will be of
  interest to both Doctor Who fans and to all those interested in the int
 ersection of religion and popular culture. \n\nThis event is free\, but 
 is NOW FULLY BOOKED. Email drwhoreligion@gmail.com if interested in bein
 g added to the Waiting List. Please note\, that due to a long Waiting Li
