i'd like this to be a discussion of the show and claims made on the show only, please.
Story Corps Founder On National Day Of Listening | WAMU
10:00Teaching Evolution and Creationism
A new report by the National Academy of Sciences emphasizes the importance of teaching evolution in public schools. We'll look at what the Academy says and why creationism does not belong in the science classroom.

when you post, please cite a time signature so people can tell that you're actually posting from the show.
now, i'm listening to it live, so i'm gonna list the time on my clock, not the time on the show, later i'll replay and use the
10:40 (john calvert) the biggest problem with materialism is that it leaves me without a purpose (mainly because i'm not smart enough to give my own life purpose)
10:47 (alan leshner) we've learned a lot about the mind and it's not tangible in the same way as a rock, but we can measure it and observe it... maybe what you mean by materialism is what i see as observable, testable, reproducable... anything outside of that is not science.
i think it belongs in the coffee house, but it's such a hot issue that it's better left somewhere else.
