While there could easily be parts three through infinity, we are ending our foray into evolution here. But hold on, because on this episode we take a look at the philosophical and rational underpinnings of evolution. We examine the idea as it transitions from theological into its post-enlightenment rational theory. Also featured is the Birmingham Lunar Society. What?

"Why Are We Talking About Rabbits?" takes you beyond rhetorical "rabbits" and the shallow approach that the media and most thinkers today take to examine contemporary cultural phenomena. Using theology, history, philosophy and years of travel in Mali, the Republic of Georgia, Haiti, and beyond, John Heers offers a refreshing take to how we got to where we are now. WAWTAR is all about talking about those heavy things… lightly.
