***Times for the show are always 5PM PST/8PM EST***
This week our host Greg will play his interview Dr. Valerie Tarico!
Dr. Tarico is a psychologist and former fundamentalist Christian who now speaks to secular groups and progressive churches on moral development, the psychology of belief, and wisdom convergence. Her book The Dark Side shows how Evangelical teachings corrupt love and truth (the subtitle, in fact), while her new book Trusting Doubt examines Evangelical beliefs and shows where they're opposed to objective reality as we've discovered it. She also contributed an essay on the psychology of belief to the John Loftus edited The Christian Delusion titled "Christian Belief Through The Lens of Cognitive Science".
Dr. Tarico blogs at her site Away Point. Stop by her page here on Think Atheist.
