No Gods? no sunshine? no problem!
Vinyl triumph of the day: Cinderella’s “Long Cold Winter” and “Night Songs”; the holy grail, Richard Marx’s “Repeat Offender”, SEALED. Thanks to Jive Time in Seattle for somehow always having what I really want.
Full Length Talk - ‘How To Tell You’re An Atheist’
Philosopher Daniel Dennett was one of the stars of the Global Atheist Convention in Melbourne and gave a brilliant and whimsical talk on defining the atheist. He is the uber-philospher of the mind and a great provocateur, though he was speaking to 4000 non believers at this convention.
He talks specifically about The Clergy Project in the middle of his talk at 19 min 15 sec.

Today I went to Golazo HQ to watch Seattle Sounders FC take on Vancouver Whitecaps. Steve Zakuani was there supporting his charity, Kingdom Hope, and I got my “Seattle til I Die” scarf signed! The match was exciting and frustrating (a 2-2 nail biter), but the autograph made my day. Go Sounders!
Rants: Our Father's Not in Heaven: The New Black Atheism(via @Gawker)

The video on how the middle class, not the rich, create jobs that TED Talks didn’t want you to see.
Civil Rights: Jay-Z Comes Out in Support of Gay Marriage(via @Gawker)
This is beautiful. Responding to President Obama’s endorsement of gay marriage, commander-in-chief of hip-hop Jay-Z has weighed in with his own support of equality.
Seriously. This is a big deal. Considering the view of homosexuality in mainstream hip-hop since day one, for a guy like Jay-z to say this shit is historical.
