When societies institutionalize the realm of the counterfeit, it is bound to spawn confusion.

Abbas,

I assume this is from the Atheist convention from earlier this fall--is this video posted somewhere, and are there videos of the other presenters?

Absolutely brilliant!

Dennett is Satan!
Gould and Lewitn are Jesus and the Divine Path.

Chris,

I think you can find several (if not all) of them at Dawkins' website.

I found this on Dennett's homepage at Tufts.

Actually, I just looked it up for you. All the talks can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=D62809AD452EDB98

Thanks, Abbas.

(and Carlos.)

Dave, I think there are a few letters missing from your keyboard.

Chris-
Rose is missing?

Dave, I think there are a few letters missing from your keyboard.
You do realize I'm using the Karen Armstrong style of writing, don't you?
Dennet is Satan, not Dennet is a concept of Satan.
