Tune in to hear Pulitizer Prize-winning journalist and author
Edward Humes discuss his new book, "Monkey Girl," on
Freethought Radio. The book chronicles the saga of the creationist
trial in Dover, Penn., resulting in the recent landmark federal
decision against "intelligent design" instruction in public
schools. The show also includes discussion of timely state/church
topics, including this week's antiabortion decision by the
Catholic-dominated Supreme Court, and the efficacy of prayer in the
face of gun violence. "Freethinkers Almanac" looks at the
unorthodoxy of Shakespeare, born on April 23. Freethought Radio is
co-hosted by Dan Barker and Annie Laurie Gaylor. (MP3, 51 min, 23
