I just want to give him a friendly scratch on the ole mutton chops! It's not lost on me that there are plenty of non-religious people out there who are just as judgmental as the far-right fundamentalists portrayed at the beginning of the video, but I like the switch to the thoughtful presentation of humanism's response to questions that I've certainly heard thousands of times. Plus, I like the goofy, dated style.
Humanists and other non-theists don't get a lot of support in our religious world. To compound the problem, "family values" has been defined to exclude our families. We don't have a lot of forums to grow together - it's not like we all get together every Sunday morning. If you're a humanist with a family (or an interest in the family structures that define our society), check in often for book reviews, parenting info, cool facts, posts about ethics and philosophy, and more.
