Remain in Light

Talking Heads' most seminal release. Released in 1980, this album draws influence from Nigerian musician Fela Kuti and sees the band members experimenting with African polyrhythms, funk, and electronics. They recorded instrumental tracks as a series of looping grooves, which had never been done before.

Remain in Light was critically acclaimed. Critics praised its sonic experimentation, blending of different genres, and rhythmic innovations. The album peaked at number 19 on the US Billboard 200 and 21 on the UK album charts. The album spawned the single Once in a Lifetime, one of Talking Heads' most famous songs.

Oluchi - What's your favorite Talking Heads album?
Jim - Remain in Light. It's not only my favorite Talking Heads album, it is also my favorite album of all time.

Reason to Live

Something that may seem elusive at times, but is always there, even if you can't see it. Look a little harder, do a little more, and eventually, you will find that one thing or person, that is your everything.

If you need a reason to live, find love, happiness, yourself and/or what you care about.

reasonist

"Reasonist" is an archaic word that has no modern use, so I submit adopting it to define what an atheist actually is. "Atheist" is a demonized word that relies on what we DON'T believe in (theism) to define us. This is absurd, and is like calling oneself an "a-astrologist" or an "a-alchemist". Instead, there are astronomers and chemists, who have a positive label for the science they pursue.

Atheists are driven out of the communal dialog based solely on this label alone. It is time this is changed, and "Reasonist" defines exactly what we believe in: REASON. We leave faith to the theists; for us, reason is not only the tool, it is the entire toolbox itself, for without reason, theism would not even exist as a philosophy or even a concept or a word. We are reasonists.

I do not have any beliefs in gods because I am a reasonist.

As a reasonist, I do not endorse faith as a means to knowledge.

I know Mao and Stalin were atheists, but I don't define myself as what I am not, I define myself as what I am, which is a reasonist.
