By Adam Taylor
I am fond of saying that “I don’t know who I am, but I know who I was as recently as five minutes ago.” American culture spends an inordinate amount of time telling us to “find” or “know” ourselves. More on why that is bullshit in a minute.
I spent the first two-thirds of my life trying to understand myself. I studied psychology because it seemed like Adamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01013916909184569667noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5318238367158196681.post-42328832288476729992013-06-02T23:40:00.001-04:002018-07-03T20:42:35.268-04:00The Left Hemispheres Podcast Ep. 20- The Left Hemispheres Podcast is Dead

This is actually Part 2 in this series, but this one focuses on inducing a religious experience in a self-avowed atheist. The point is to explore how humans are hardwired for belief in the supernatural and how that leaves us prone to religious belief. Videos via ErmmTV.

More from Hemant can be found on his blog, Friendly Atheist.

This may come as a shock to you, but we are media addicts here at LH. So when something as historic as two Supreme Court hearings about same sex marriage hits the internet we tend to read an unhealthy amount of articles. Here’s just a few from our culturally biased, although morally justifiable perspective. Followed by the fearful reactions of those opposing SSM.

Wouldn’t it be great if there were only one dictionary? You could make it available online and everybody could agree on the definitions of words. Sure, new things are invented every now and then but the advertising agencies of the world can just use the words we have with literal meanings for their products. Honestly, do we need to call a book reading machine a Kindle?
