Godless rambling

  • A Turkish game show is looking for atheists to convert. Via Pharyngula. They did a skit about this on the Stephanie Miller radio show. My husband said that during the show, basically the whole cast -- Stephanie, Jim, and Chris (who was already out as an atheist) came out as atheists. Turkey's government is supposed to be secular, but if I lived there, I'd think twice about announcing my lack of belief on television.

What remains, then, for those who cannot pray ... This alone, and this is enough: To love virtue, to love truth.
-- John Burroughs

I would add ... to love Nature, to love learning ...

Ta ta for now,
Sylvie
