Agency – Our prehistory is of predators and talking natural selection what is clearer than that we are afraid of what will come and kill us, black cats, etc. These “agents” we still have fear of but they’ve transformed into Global Warming, Hurricanes, and the old God. How did God become an agent? Why do I hear in a big box luthern church in Calgary that we should fear God? Is not God sold to our fears? God and fear the same thing? If I choose what I’m afaid of to still be the black cat am I not better off than choosing the agency to be divine communication?

The Devil and Daniel Johnston – I would like to hear what you have to say about this movie from an atheist perspective. You might say that religious fanatics are “crazy” but what about schizophrenics, artists, etc are they not crazy in a more innocent way then christians, be they moderates or fundmentalists….
