This week we discuss state/church victories and defeats in Florida, Kentucky and Colorado, and celebrate the lives of February freethinkers such as NAACP founder W. E. B. Du Bois and actor Tony Randall. After hearing folksinger Malvina Reynolds sing about “This World,” we talk with Swedish-born Yale professor Martin Hägglund about his book, This Life: Secular Faith and Spiritual Freedom in which he explains that the concept of eternity destroys true meaning and value.
