#Mastodon #News When i arrived here the 1st user i followed was @georgetakei
He is always present and very active and a beacon of #Humanity and #Decency in the mad #World we live in, where empathy and human values are considered, sadly by many, as secondary.

The second one i tried to follow was #RobReiner and i had to deal with the fact that he was never active here.

Still i remember his posts on #Twitter; his late father ones as well.
Both #Humanists just for their empathy towards the less favored.

#RIP #RobReiner #Democracy lost a warrior, History won a Hero.

#BookReview: “Separation of #Church and #Hate”
by Harry Foxwell

#BOOK BY JOHN FUGELSANG

That a book defending #Christianity and the #Bible against #fundamentalists and #religious #nationalists could be relevant to #humanists might seem contradictory. However, the author’s approach—pairing #extremists’ stated beliefs with #Christ’s actual words—makes for informative and even entertaining reading.

Banned Books Week:

"'Whenever you read a good book, somewhere in the world a door opens to allow in more light.' - Vera Nazarian

Censorship fails when we decide to read anyway. This Banned Books Week, pick up a challenged title and make some intellectual noise. Read, resist, repeat." (Text via American Humanists)

I went for a walk on #Crosby beach yesterday with Liverpool #Humanists. I had several interesting conversations with a lovely bunch of people as we strolled South down the coast.

One of the party, new to the area, had never seen the Iron Men before. 😀
