FreeThinker’s Toolkit on Pareidolia.

What’s the harm in evolution denial?

Producer’s comments:

Thanks to everyone for your participation!  I getting more comfortable with final cut.  Let’s keep rasing the bar.  Chad, Andy, and Dave- I tried cutting your freethinkers segment down and it didn’t work.  (I hope you don’t mind me “retro” fitting the pareidolia segment in it.)  I needed to shave 9 min and  it did not work cut up.  The Freethinker’s toolkit is in the can for the next show.  I filled the extra time with CFI’s PSA and my comment section which I felt was needed to be clear up some thoughts on religion and naturalism).

For the  next show, I may need some extra camera people to do an onsite shoot.  More on that later…_

Cheers,

Andy

    Yeah, it was complete without it, since the evo discussion was long.  Good work with the editing.

    And I’ve never had anything I’ve been in be record-scratch-interrupted before, so that was cool. Nice subtle jab at compartmentalization and liberal Christianity, too. “You can reconcile them and that’s totally cool, but: **puts up several screens of evidence of why it’s a silly thing to do**.”

    I want to make clear for all the viewers, though, that the Dave referred to in the pareidolia segment did in fact not appear in the episode.  He was in the segment that was cut, and will appear next month.

    Excellent job, everyone.  Maybe I’m biased, but I think public access wouldn’t have such a sketchy reputation if every show had as much style and substance as ours.

    Thanks for the feedback!  Make sure you watch past the credits.  There is a surprise!

    -Butter- yeah sorry about not cutting that comment on Dave.  I figured it wasn’t that important and people may think your were mentioning a freethinkers toolkit on an earlier “this” enlightenment show.   I know you really watched the show!  I hope you like the CG work this time!

    Mighty- Thanks for those gracious comments.  It means alot to all of us.

    PS. Anyone in Freethought Fort Wayne who has an idea for the show or wants to help on the show or behind the scenes let  me know.
