Life Before Death

Don’t Worry, I’m Still Here

Filed under: Stuff

Recently I have suffered from a serious case of Real Life and thus had little brain-power to spare for the blogosphere. Autumn means the garden (of my parents) needs attention, and I have also begun preparing for a course in systematic zoology* that will start in November. Given that I have a tendency to suffer from seasonal affective disorder during the darker months I have resolved to do as much studying before the course even starts as I possibly can.

I’m not abandoning the blog and have some topics lined up for it; a review of God is Not Great among other things. There, I said it, so now it has to happen!

Other fun stuff that has been happening lately is the ongoing preparations for the official founding of the Swedish Humanist Youth Organisation, as I assume it will be called internationally. I am no longer a central component of this project but I do constitute a link between the youth organisation and the “mothership” (I’m a board member of the Swedish Humanist Association). The humanist movement is growing in Sweden and involving the younger generation (that is, my own) in this project seems like a natural step on the way to truly becoming a force to be reckoned with in society.


* Magnus of My Cup of Tea pointed out the rather tautological nature of this name. Isn’t science normally supposed to be systematic? In Swedish, the course is called “Zoologisk systematik” (zoological systematics, or systematics of zoology), which obviously is rather clearer. On a similar note, I once took a course called Organism biology…

  4. Organismbiologi - i motsats till molekylär biologi, cellbiologi eller populationsbiologi? Om man är van att plugga biologi på organismnivå låter det väl konstigt, men jag skulle lätt kunna behöva en sån kurs för jag har bara läst de andra typerna :-)
