Thought this was worth sharing. Stephen just posted it.
Listened to Sean Faircloth this Sunday afternoon. Much appreciated his analysis of the rising Christian Right in Canada as in America. Compelling and affirmative of the basic position I have maintained in this gathered circle of perspective.
Today's talk may appear online in the time to come. Till then, here is a lecure congruent with the lecture I heard to day. The key concepts and phrases expressed in this lecture were also expressed in the Kamloops lecture.
Saw this clip on the Globe's website. It's a promo for a new documentary that follows a speaking tour by Lawrence Krauss and Richard Dawkins both, as I think we know well around here, scientists who are outspoken advocates for atheism.
Gotta love it when Dawkins gets on a roll. He made a series of tweets on Sunday, about Mitt Romney and Mormonism. Here are the tweets:
No centerfold. Promise.
Below is a good interview with Dawkins, right from Playboy, which everyone reads for the articles.
Note that there are NSFW (not safe for work) though strategicaly blocked (technically non-nude) images in the menu and background, and of course, at the Playboy site you're one click away from naked ladies. But the interview is quite good, and worth sharing.

I'd like to communicate further that it is not just the claims of religion which I do not accept, but all supernatural claims. Richard Dawkins has made a two-part film called "The Enemies of Reason" which can be viewed on-line. Here's part one:
