You're listening to, atheistically speaking. Oh, Hello, welcome to atheistically speaking. This is episode number 80. We've hit the

big 8-0. It's another big milestone if you're a fan of base 10 number systems, right? 80. I don't know. I think the, I've mentioned this before probably, but the big milestone will be 104, right? Because it'll be a year. I think there was one week I missed I'm your

host Thomas Smith by the way I just thought I'd let you know because I have such a

generic name that why not say my full name I've had a more specific name

like Thomas Machiavelli.

No, that probably wouldn't work because I

Machiavelli will bring up a few other results. Thomas P. Worrell, like Ernest's brother. Then maybe I wouldn't say it because

it's so specific, but people could find me.

That being said, I think people still find me because that's the wonders of technology these days.

So, last episode, we read the first half, well we didn't read it, but I went over and selected

some good quotes from the first half of the selection from Thomas Hobbs of religion.

And then, of course, I talked about a few comments. Today we're

going to finish that, all the comments, we're going to finish the comments. Now we're

going to finish of religion and we'll see how long it takes. I'm actually not sure. I think on paper I have about about half, but then again I realized, you know, I did the introduction and stuff, so that took up some time. So we'll see where we are and we'll see what we have time for

After we're done, but I'm very I'm loving this reading. It's very fun

It's very cool. I like learning. I think I want to take a more learning direction on this podcast. I think I do maybe I'll maybe we can start getting hey a quick quick note, anyone out there, especially patrons, but anyone else, actually anyone.

If you're like, I mean I know I've had this before, I know I've seen comments several from people

who are either doing graduate degrees or have you know have already completed them or in the midst of them of some sort of science or anything but probably some sort of science.

If you were interested in maybe developing, I don't know, some sort of segment about talking

about what's happening in your, you know, area of expertise, like science news, like that kind of thing.

I love that kind of thing. I just thought I'd put that out there. Maybe it won't happen.

But if you are somebody who's, or even if you're just someone who has a high understanding and a passion for science, let me know. It'd be fun to mix it up a little bit, have like a, you know, what current science news kind of thing with somebody who knows what they're talking about.
