Featured text: "Tocqueville's Faith" — Alexis de Tocqueville

Faith in What? Faith in Who? In this episode, we read Robert J. Delahunty's article about Alex de Tocqueville's faith. Tocqueville is a remarkable study in Enlightenment faith because he straddles the line between Christianity and the Enlightenment: Law and religion, belief and despair that concerns the relationships between Church and State in the United States and France.

Featured text: "God is Not Great" — Christopher Hitchens

"Remember again part of our charge against religion, our belief that it is fundamentally wicked and antihuman, is precisely its eschatology. Religion is predicated on the idea that our time here is short and should be shorter, that our job is to bring on the end of days. This is just a veil of tears and guilt and shame. This, the only life we have—the only life we have that contains music and art and literature and solidarity and sex and love—all of this should be swept away. We can't wait for the end times to come. That's what they all have to believe."

Featured text: "God is Not Great" — Christopher Hitchens

"We were baffled by climatic and cataclysmic events: earthquakes, tidal waves, storms, lightning. All of this was to us terrifying. Religion works as an attempt, then, to make sense of things. We are pattern-seeking mammals, after all. It's a good thing that we are, because if we weren't pattern-seeking mammals, our curiosity would have no outlet and we wouldn't be capable of the great innovations that have liberated us from so many things, including religion."
