Thank you for celebrating the life and philosophy of Daniel Dennett. He was an important contributor to my own philosophical understanding as an agnostic/atheist. I am grateful for both the conceptual framework and language he helped to develop. To use his own words, we should all "thank goodness" for Daniel Dennett.

That was a genuine treat. Our world of secular reason will miss Professor Dennett - his body of profoundly important work lives on. It's also nice to learn that clerics have a place to go for help with their psychosis! 😉😊

I loved Dr. Daniel Dennett, very sad to hear about his passing, I would have loved to meet him, he was my absolute favorite, an intellectual giant, a legend, true sage, heard he was also very kind gentle person, huge loss to civilization, I will watch tons of his lectures in the next few weeks in his memory, I made a playlist of his lectures and interviews for myself to work through, listening to Dr Dennett lectures would be my idea of Heaven

What a guy! Going to have to read his autobiography.

[@RayTheProducer]

Legends!

[@AveriesMiranda]

He was such a lovely man

[@greatboniwanker]

Thank you for rebroadcasting this really wonderful discussion!

[@kleenmaint]

This guy is really fun to listen to. I am thankful to FFRF for bringing me to many unique and interesting people. I have borrowed and ordered some of his books.

😢 Dan Dennett was a national treasure. He'll be sorely missed. The last good Horseman.

[@deathuponusalll]

Love that man! Haven’t heard much from him in quite some time, glad to see he’s doing well and still speaking up

[@PWN4G3FTW]

Who do you mean? Surely not Dennett, right?

[@Rico-Suave_]

Dennet sadly passed out a few weeks ago

[@josegaleano6932]

This is the second horseman we lost the best of our time

[@johnobrien6415]

Now we're just left with Same Harris. That's like taking George and John and leaving us with Paul and Ringo.

hi losing my faith has done more harm than good I have lost my soulmate of 31 years and this has robbed me of all my hope of ever being reunited with him

[@JamesRichardWiley]

I support Daniel as an atheist but his arguments did not resonate with me like they did with Hitchens, Sam Harris and especially Brandon on "Mindshift".
