Freaking Amazing Podcasts!

Pretty much all I've been doing at the library is listening to various NPR podcasts and readings of primary philosophy texts. The philosophy may not be all that interesting to most but I can guaruntee that Radio Lab is very accessible. (Be sure and check out the other seasons too)

There are also some pretty interesting stories on This American Life:

Humor and Religion

Something Worth Thinking About

Telling people that God disapproves of their deepest needs for love and companionship, and that they must forgo that “sin” in order to be right with God, is an act of emotional and spiritual violence. -Dan Savage

To Episcopal Or Not To Episcopal

So I'm going to be starting confirmation classes before I take the "plunge" into real organized religion. For the longest time now I've been a part of the non-denominational denomination or I've been just plain agnostic, but now I'm a little apprehensive about signing on to something that has structure. I'm not entirely sure what there is to be afraid of, it's not like after confirmation I won't be allowed to disagree with anything religious anymore. This will be an interesting experience and I will try to keep track of my thoughts through this process.
