Quickies: Dealing with death as an atheist, Obama on racism, and Anonymous
- Comforting Thoughts About Death That Have Nothing To Do With God – Greta Christina’s new book is now out in ebook formats. It will be out in audio on Dec. 30th. Dealing with death and grief as an atheist can be one of the hardest things we face, especially when surrounded by religious people. I’m so glad to see an author I admire tackle this subject.
- Obama recalls being mistaken for a valet in talk on racism in America – From Donna.
- This GOP lawmaker wants women to get permission from the father before having an abortion – From Mary.
- The truth about Anonymous’s activism – “Anonymous is not a vanguard; it’s the relic of an already twice-failed dream. Anonymous is the latest and most dysfunctional marriage between a particular strain of countercultural utopianism and the boundless faith in technology that first appeared in the 1960s.”
