Main Topic:  Nonbelievers, Luck and Giving Thanks

Speaker :  Aaron Rabinowitz

Aaron Rabinowitz is a PhD student in the Rutgers Graduate School of Education. He specializes in secular moral education and is currently developing a pedagogy focused on the pervasiveness of luck. Aaron hosts two philosophy podcasts: Embrace the Void (@ETVPod) and Philosophers in Space (@0gPhilosophy). The goal of both shows is to make philosophy more accessible for listeners without a philosophy background.

Community Moment : "Blue Marble Health"  by Page Williams 

Page will talk about Dr. Peter Hotez's book "Blue Marble Health" and how it references the neglected tropical diseases afflicting the poverty-stricken areas in the richest countries, how the diseases keep the stricken people in poverty, like Houston's Fifth Ward.
 

Page Williams is a long time member of the Humanist community in Houston. Nowadays she helps welcome Oasians to the Sunday Gathering every week
