It's a long talk, but it is good. I watched about an hour of Avakian's intro so far... he touches on religion, the scientific method, the possibilities of our time, and Ferguson and Obama.

I know religion is a popular debate topic around here but I'm about to fast forward a bit to see how West counters Avakian's argument as to why religion isn't necessary to strive for a just world.

West seems to focus his counterpoints primarily on the subversive elements of Christianity and the historical role of Christianity in African-American communities as a source of strength and a place of refuge from persecution.
