What is humanism? What are its core principles? On what topics do humanists agree and disagree, and how do they live these principles? Sunday’s show doesn’t promise to have all the answers, but the conversation should be illuminating.

Listen to Scott Lohman, president of the Humanists of Minnesota, and friends discuss the topic during one of Minnesota’s greatest gatherings of humanity–the Minnesota State Fair. The panel at the live show at the AM950 KTNF booth are Scott Lohman, Audreg Kingstrom and Mark Thoson.

Brian Dalton is the writer, producer and director of the slyly subversive webcast comedy series “Mr. Deity.”  Mr. Deity has created our Universe with love and affection; mostly.  This was not a simple production, you see, and there are many aspects to Creation of which we humans are not capable of understanding.

Dalton’s “Mr. Deity” is all too human, avaricious and behind his lovable exterior he hides a deep need to be worshipped.  He is not above throwing a bunch of natural disasters in our way to get us to pay attention without “violating our free will.”  Mr. Deity is a funny look behind the scenes of Creation.

Sure, things could have been done a bit differently.  But would that have made as good of a story?
