[Hac-announce] Wood-n-Tap Dinner Discussion: “Atheism 2.0” --this Monday

[Carol Ritter]

Alain de Botton: Athiesm 2.0

In this TED talk https://www.ted.com/talks/alain_de_botton_atheism_2_0 Alain de Botton suggests a "religion for atheists" that incorporates religious forms and traditions to satisfy our human need for connection, ritual and transcendence. Alain de Botton is a Swiss-born British philosopher and author. "Religion for Atheists: A Non-Believer's Guide to the Uses of Religion," is one of his fifteen published books. Do you find anything new or compelling in his presentation? Is it too simplistic or complicated? Bring your thoughts!
