We also interview Christopher Wilke, the talented painter darkly. - We passionately deconstruct religious orthodoxy:  Are contemporary Christians, Christian? Some thoughts from a secular atheist perspective. The dangers of religious fervor in the modern world. The current state of affairs. Is there an inherent and necessary adherence to scripture? Who creates&amp;nbsp;the caliphate? Is there a place for organized religion in the modern world?  &amp;nbsp;- An in-depth interview with Christopher Wilke, the painter:  The stunning and&amp;nbsp;preternaturally torturous art&amp;nbsp;of Christopher Wilke.
