As chair of the Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal (CSICOP), the Council for Secular Humanism, and Prometheus Books, and as editor-in-chief of <SPAN>Free Inquiry Magazine</SPAN>, he has advanced a critical, humanistic inquiry into many of the most cherished beliefs of society for the last forty years.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.pointofinquiry.org/?p=142"><DIV>In this discussion with D.J. Grothe, Paul Kurtz talks about ethics from a nonreligious perspective, how morality develops, the moral education of children, and whether or not ethics can ever be more than just self-interestedness. He also explains how the question of God’s existence should be immaterial to any discussion of human morality.</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.pointofinquiry.org/?p=142"><DIV>Also in this episode, <SPAN>Free Inquiry </SPAN> magazine editor Tom Flynn explores the “reason for the season” as a secular humanist.</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.pointofinquiry.org/?p=142"><TABLE><TBODY><TR><TD><A href="http://www.pointofinquiry.org/itms://ax.phobos.apple.com.edgesuite.net/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=107134018"><B>Subscribe with iTunes</B></A></TD><TD><A href="http://libsyn.com/media/pointofinquiry/POI_2007_12_21_Paul_Kurtz.mp3"><B>Download MP3</B></A></TD><TD><A href="http://pointofinquiry.libsyn.com/rss"><B>XML Feed</B></A></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;"> </td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/936FF02A-0BA2-4CEF-8EED-91343BDD0173/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
