judiasm

November 18, 2018

Richard D. Logan joins us today to discuss how we can continue to build and grow a secular society.  While this is something Minnesota Atheists has been extremely successful with already, we felt it would be beneficial to get the points of view from others in the secular community who don't identify as atheists.

Richard is a retired Professor of Human Development.  He has a BA in Anthropology from Harvard College and a PhD in Human Development from the University of Chicago.  He has published on adolescent identity, American individualism, the emergence of the self through Western history, and the state of higher education.  He also authored a book on the psychology of solitary ordeals, and another on the true survival story of a young girl lost at sea.  He also chaired the Faculty Executive Committee. Since retiring he has served on several non-profit boards.

Ikkor, the Jewish vizier of the king of Assyria, was the wisest man in the land, but he was not happy. He was the greatest favorite of the king who heaped honors upon him, and the idol of the people who bowed before him in the streets and cast themselves on the ground at his feet to kiss the hem of his garment. Always he had a kindly word and a smile for those who sought his advice and guidance, but his eyes were ever sad, and tears would trickle down his cheeks as he watched the little children at play in the streets.

OMGWTFBIBLE hits its stride and figures out its running time in Chapter Two:

In which the whole Paradise Lost thing goes down and Cain and Abel take sibling rivalry a little bit too far
