Transhumanism and atheism | Jon Simmons
https://atheistresearcher.com/2015/06/15/transhumanism-and-atheism
Sociology of Religion, Social Movements. June 15, 2015. I just finished reading Lincoln Canon’s recent post. Over at the Institute for Ethics and Emerging technologies. He makes a number of claims that I take issue with, but the one I’m most comfortable addressing is that only “about half of Transhumanists and Technoprogressives identify as either atheist or agnostic, and that’s down about 15% from surveys done a decade ago.”.

The Left and science | Jon Simmons
https://atheistresearcher.com/2015/06/29/the-left-and-science
Sociology of Religion, Social Movements. The Left and science. June 29, 2015. This is not a complete post, in the sense that it does not come to a conclusion. It’s more or less just me ruminating on some contemporary issues. Let’s go back in time to when everyone was talking about the relationship between anti-science views and political identity.

The Amaz!ng Meeting (TAM) | Jon Simmons
https://atheistresearcher.com/2015/07/22/the-amazng-meeting-tam
Sociology of Religion, Social Movements. July 22, 2015. From July 15-19 I attended TAM13 in Las Vegas. It was my first TAM experience, but it wasn’t completely different from some other conferences I have attended. It reminded me of I. 8216;s 2014 annual conference in Washington, DC., although TAM is decidedly more alcoholic. Screening, almost everything involving Jamy Ian Swiss, Brian Deer’s talk on vaccines, and Michael Shermer’s presentation. My shiny forehead with James Randi. The relevance of this v...
