... the heroic atheists in Burma: Religion as a force for good. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)
But I have heard that Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett and Christopher Hitchens are on their way there to lead some more demonstrations. I have heard that, haven't I?
Hi Frank,
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this, and to Dave Lull for finding the article. Point made.
I am affected by the struggle in Burma/Myanmar. Daily, I look to Luisetta Mudie's blog posts at Radio Free Asia Unplugged.
Scrolling leads to startling video, and following some of her links, leads to blogposts from there such as here: The Dark Hours (as you know), an excerpt:
I'll let you know when I've been shot. (I'll ask someone before I die to blog about it. If it was an instant death, I'll come to my sister in my dream and tell her to blog about it, or I won't rest in peace)
E. Ethelbert Miller has been blogging, poetically at his E-Notes here: And we once called it BURMA . . .
and here: What would the Buddha do?
On the Dawkins/Dennett/Hitchens train of thought, it seems so small at this time to ask what would Darwin do?
Yours,
Rus
