About Me
- Name: Infidel753
- Location: Portland, Oregon, United States
Individualist, pro-technology, pro-democracy, anti-religion. I speak only for myself and not for any ideology, movement, or party. It has been my great good fortune to live my whole life free of "spirituality" of any kind. I believe that evidence and reason are the keys to understanding reality; that technology rather than ideology or politics has been the great liberator of humanity; and that in the long run, human intelligence is the most powerful force in the universe.

I am certainly going to miss hearing from this man. He was eloquent in ways I could only ever hope to be.
Love the cult/religion Venn diagram.
Did you see this? Hitchens and Jesus
Cyc: Fortunately a wealth of his words is still with us -- as here.
Nance: Thanks for the link. I knew Schaeffer would have something classy to say. That reminds me, I need to get hold of his new book.....
