I just finished a new track which I titled, “Salsa and Chips.” It has quite a Latino / Electronica / hip hop flavor. Enjoy the audio snack!

I composed this track for my daughter Angelina when she was born just four months ago. I put a lot of thought into it and wanted to create something that was peaceful and warm. I carefully and strategically arranged this lullaby with wind chimes, bells, soft chirping birds, a mothers heartbeat from inside the womb, gentle drums, and other natural peaceful sounding elements that I thought would help Angelina fall fast asleep at night. It has worked great and she loves it. Now I would like to share it with you. Click the speaker to listen.

“Around (Rise and Fall)” was my song submission to AcidPlanet’s “Vincent Bernay - Around” Broadjam Remix Contest.

This is my second public Darwin Day e-card design release. Feel free to send this Darwin Day e-card to your friends.

I’ve seen some discussions lately that suggest that atheism is simply a lack of belief in god. This is somewhat misleading because atheists do not just lack a belief in god, they “disbelieve” in god.

To reach atheism, I think it must go in this order: Ignorant - agnostic - atheist.

By default we are all ignorant.

A baby for example has no idea of god, and therefore can not even disbelieve in god. A baby by default is ignorant. Once ideas are introduced, such as the idea of a god, then one immediately becomes agnostic until they decide to believe in the idea or not. If they decide to not believe in god then they are labelled as an atheist.

An atheist holds a disbelief based on being exposed to the idea of god and having rejected it. A baby for example does not hold a belief or even a disbelief. They are totally “ignorant”, they are not atheists. You must be exposed to the idea to reject it. Babies do not not believe in god. They haven’t been exposed to god to even not believe in god. Atheism isn’t just lacking a belief, it’s also holding a disbelief. To disbelieve, you must be exposed to the idea.
