Dartmouth philosopher Walter Sinnott-Armstrong is convinced religion provides comfort but that it lacks reality. He's a determined atheist whose tenure at Dartmouth College assures him a secure voice in what is often a controversial issue. He'll explore the meaning of life as a non-believer.

And we'll meet author Audrey White whose book Buzzy Jellison features the true story of a cat living in a funeral home.

TONIGHT'S SONG: "It Wasn't Me" by Jenny Lewis with the Watson Twins. It's off the new album "Rabbit Fur Coat".
