Going Greta Christian crazy

[ciphergoth]

Instead of going to the pub (which I didn't feel up to), I ended up reading Greta Christian's blog last night, from start to... haven't quite got to the finish yet. Sex and atheism, what's not to like? So have some links, before my tab line explodes.

• One for some_fox
• One for booklectic
• For anyone who remembers the fuss about "treating women as pre-pregnant"
• For anyone who thinks a cake painstakingly baked to look very like a dismembered human thoracic cavity is cool
• Arguing with Dan Savage about bisexuality
• Growing old disgracefully
• Sex offender hysteria

...doubtless I'll edit this to add more as I read on!

She's quite interesting, actually. But - should I know her from somewhere?

Yeah, I think I'm in love.

Actually I'm right with her on that particular Sartre book. The best thing with Sartre (and most similar dudes) is to read the books about them before tackling them raw, as it were. But once you have read about his ideas I think Being and Nothingness is quite a ripping read in places. Especially the examples like the waiter and the keyhole which really clarify what he's on about.

Yey Sartre.

You also need to read Derren Brown's book if you haven't already. I keep thinking of you because there's loads in it about atheism, cold reading, etc. etc. All very entertaining too.
