“Your Point Of View On Religion, In 30 Seconds Or Less”
I was contacted a couple of days ago by a representative of Current TV:
I am writing from Current TV in the hopes of persuading you to record a quick Point of View webcam in regards to a half hour special we here at Current TV are producing on the topic of religion. We will be using webcam comments as interstitials in the show, in the hopes of gaining a real authentic look @ how people relate to religion today. Of course, your blog came up as a good resource for atheists, and we want to be sure you are represented.
When I queried further, they asked for a video of my “point of view on religion, in 30 seconds or less”. That is actually quite a challenge, and I’d much prefer to take up the entire half hour special explaining my complex opinions on religion. However, 30 seconds is all I’ve got, so I’ll have to somehow compress it down a bit.
No idea when I have until to do the video, or when the program runs on Current TV, but I’ll update you with more information when it comes, and also with my video.
Unrelated: Tomorrow marks the day we start to hand out leaflets for the Atheist & Agnostic Alliance, and hopefully we start getting somewhere towards ratification with the Student Union.
