I've been working on my next book for three years now. Excited that it officially has a name—Tech Agnostic—and a great home @mitpress. Publication is still awhile away; plenty of time for more interviews. DM/Signal if you want to talk or send ideas. mitpress.mit.edu/blog/book-deal…

Turned in 100,000+ word TECH AGNOSTIC draft yesterday. 5 yrs work. @mitpress already sending out for peer review (& advice on what to cut...it's LONG, incl. 5K words of notes/references!). Need to send pre-publicity info f/@penguinrandom next week. Can't believe it's really real.

I get shy sharing footage of myself on TV, but really appreciated this @ABC @ABCNewsLive invite to discuss my book @goodwithoutgod @HarperCollins. Blows me away that people are still reading it years after publication, but #humanism=relevant as ever. 1/2

I struggled mightily to write @goodwithoutgod in my 20's, barely succeeding in completing it. In my 30's I couldn't get out of my own way, failing to finish much writing at all. In my 40's am determined to be a "real writer." Which is—as a teacher once said—"someone who writes."

Just turned in version 2.0 of the second-longest piece of writing I've ever produced, after my book @goodwithoutgod. It's not a full follow-up book yet, but it sure is on its way...now I need to do about 50-100 more interviews, and crank out version 3.0!

After tying up as many loose ends as I could from this bizarre academic year, I am now on a 3 month sabbatical to work on my book project about technology, religion, and humanism!

"Perhaps the biggest indicator of chaplaincy’s centrality to the spiritual needs of America is the arrival of humanist chaplains, who don’t believe in a higher power or deity, but instead aspire to contribute to “humanity’s greater good.” Well...thank you! vice.com/en/article/epn…

Better to be what Sam Harris calls 'struggling' than his definition of success. @Americnhumanist's brave decision marks the end of an era. Humanists/atheists deserve more inclusive, antiracist, less flat-out intolerant leadership than the loudest voices of the last generation.

@RichardDawkins I've had low expectations for you, for quite some time. As I believe I've made clear. Even so this is disappointing. You've worked hard to be the spokesperson for causes I hold dear; if you can't perceive an accompanying obligation to be more decent than this—step back. Way back.

“Think about the rise of the nones,” @ryanburge says in my latest @GlobeIdeas, “[like] globalization. In both cases, the same cold, hard fact is true: We cannot stop it.” + a big personal experience I've never put in writing before and still won't tweet trib.al/9phhMzi

For 20 years I've been a professional humanist— representing the positive values of the nonreligious. We're now among the largest groups in the US, & I truly believe we can help @JoeBiden live out his intention to build the most inclusive @WhiteHouse, ever trib.al/9phhMzi

My latest for @BostonGlobe @GlobeIdeas follows a Baptist pastor from the deindustrializing rural Midwest who has become an unlikely star among secularists like me, and calls on @POTUS and @WhiteHouse to reach out directly to the nonreligious. trib.al/9phhMzi
Boston Globe Ideas@GlobeIdeas

Amid rising Christian nationalism @POTUS Biden should reach out with a greater acknowledgement of Americans with no religious affiliation, writes @gregmepstein. trib.al/9phhMzi
