Education and Demagoguery.  Can public education be effective against the persuasive power of political demagogues?   The examples of 20th-century Germany and Russia aren’t encouraging.  What are the lessons for us in the 21st century?  Alex Malakhoff introduces our Bastille Day program.

Does Atheism Always Matter to Me?  Judy King asks whether atheism is always important to us on a personal basis - or perhaps there are places on life’s path when it just doesn’t matter much?
