On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Long before humans could be blamed for causing harm and suffering to animals in the world, nature was “red in tooth and claw.” For hundreds of millions of years, creatures have eaten each other, caused disease, and suffered from genetic conditions like cancer.

How could a good God create through a process like evolution, when it involves so much suffering, death, and extinction?
