About
Mind on Fire is devoted to religion and skepticism, with frequent detours into science fiction, feminism, and other (mostly geeky) pet topics. It aims to be respectfully iconoclastic and thoroughly sacrilicious.
John Remy: [editor and permablogger] is an atheist-Quaker and secular humanist, cultural Shinto-Buddhist-Christian, and former Mormon; a religious studies graduate student, pseudo-journalist, and aspiring science fiction author. He started Mind on Fire in 2001 and is amazed to see that its engine is still good, even after all the miles on it.
xJane: [permablogger] found Mind on Fire through the wonders of the internet in connecting like-minded peoples. She contributes sporadically with her strong opinions and tries not to offend her readers: this is her toned down. She comes from a predominately Catholic background but is currently exploring atheistic spirituality. -

YouTube blogging rocks. Makes me want to read every one of the books.
So there’s some trepidation on the official selection, eh? Should make for great conversation. In anticipation of what I thought was the likely choice, I preordered along with Harris’ newest “Letter to a Christian Nation” … should arrive today or tomorrow. Let’s rock and roll.

Now THAT’s not fair. 5 minutes is a long time to be (pretending not to, but actually) watching a video from my computer at work ;). Are you going to announce it in a work-safe way as well????

That was kind of entertaining just to watch you talking at 1am, regardless of the actual content. You should do a MindOnFire3am vid podcast series.

Library, here I come

Cool! Count me in! Ordering it from Amazon today…
Idea for a future YouTube Blog Cast… slowly pan across your bookshelves so we can see what other titles exist in the Remy library.

Pretty soon the Remy library will be available on a website. I’ve just got to finesse the details….
Though I’m warning you, we charge some pretty hefty overdue fines.
Of course, you can always come by and browse in person, too

Are those all your books in the background? If so, wow. I think that Joseph Campell’s the Hero with a thousand faces would be a worthy choice for a book club. Happy reading to all.

I’m going to go get it this tomorrow and I can’t wait to get started!
If the time for the live group ends up being on a weekend, our apartment is available for the location.

Can I just tell you how awesome you all are? (Yes, even my kid brother, PodMonkey)
