Description
Tune in to hear Pulitizer Prize-winning journalist and author Edward Humes
discuss his new book, "Monkey Girl," on Freethought Radio. The book
chronicles the saga of the creationist trial in Dover, Penn., resulting
in the recent landmark federal decision against "intelligent design"
instruction in public schools. The show also includes discussion of
timely state/church topics, including this week's antiabortion decision
by the Catholic-dominated Supreme Court, and the efficacy of prayer in
the face of gun violence. "Freethinkers Almanac" looks at the
unorthodoxy of Shakespeare, born on April 23. Freethought Radio is
co-hosted by Dan Barker and Annie Laurie Gaylor. (MP3, 51 min, 23 MB)
