Loved President Obama’s 2nd Inauguration speech given today. I heard the social contract in his words. In a post on my iHumanism blog I highlighted some of my favorite parts of the speech.
Non-believers finally exist
Best part of President Obama’s inaugural address on January 20th, for me, was this bit:
For we know that our patchwork heritage is a strength, not a weakness. We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus, and non-believers.
Of course I feel for those other hundreds of religions and other beliefs left out, but I’m happy to get a shout out for non-believers.
