The Jewmanist

I have made a change log for The Coming Out Godless Project.

As you may have noticed, I’ve been slow to blog here as well as work on the final changes for COG. Read my post on what has come up.

I recently read this article (about a week ago) at The American Scholar that runs alongside my recent post regarding the beauty in evolution. I noticed author Brian Boyd sees things through Rose-colored glasses (or, perhaps, I see things through Brian-colored glasses).

Does evolution by natural selection rob life of purpose, as so many have feared? The answer is no. On the contrary, Charles Darwin has made it possible to understand how purpose, like life, builds from small beginnings, from the ground up. In a very real sense, evolution creates purpose.

Tonight I saw a taping of Real Time with Bill Maher. They were taking all cameras and phones (with decent cameras). Somehow they missed my point ‘n shoot camera– this is what I got and I like it!!

On the show: Former Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean; comic/writer Dana Gould; journalist Bethany McLean; writer Randy Cohen; author Robert Baer.
