Secular Philosophy Blog

So a group of philosophers, including Colin McGinn, Daniel Dennett, and others have teamed up on a new Secular Philosophy web site. Unfortunately, they don't seem to be putting much energy into the page. The page does sport some interesting content, though, especially for people who are generally interested in recent critical thought surrounding religion.

They've attached a blog to the site. While there's plenty of good fodder for people interested in bashing the delirious aspects of religion (mostly in the US), I'm sad to say that I haven't found the posts at the site very sophisticated, and have taken particular umbrage at a some of the posts by Mark Rowlands. For those interested in the controversy, see here and here.

It was, in any event, good of Mark to respond, especially since my first response was, admittedly, a bit harsh.
