I see much, much relevance in this "Do Human Rights Actually Exist?" (Human rights are/have been a key issue for Quakers for centuries) for the SF Quaker Meeting, I'd suggest as well.
And I recently came across this in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, main newspaper ... with possibly interesting relevance for atheists in the text:
"After court ruling, state House to resume faith-based prayer
HARRISBURG — The Pennsylvania House of Representatives will resume opening its sessions with faith-based prayers, more than a month after a federal appeals court said the practice comports with the U.S. Constitution.
Republican Speaker Mike Turzai of Allegheny County announced those plans on Thursday, after a federal district court judge ended an injunction.
The 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled 2-to-1 in August that a prohibition against atheists and other nonbelievers giving the opening invocation didn’t violate the Constitution’s Establishment Clause.
Mr. Turzai’s office says he hasn’t selected the person who will give the next invocation, when the House returns Oct. 21.
Since the guest chaplain policy was blocked, Mr. Turzai has been assigning the invocation to House members".

Since the guest chaplain policy was blocked, Mr. Turzai has been assigning the invocation to House members".
Why is the Pennsylvania House of Representatives resuming opening its sessions with faith-based prayers - especially given the US Separation of Church and State? I've shared this article in Friends' Journal from 2008 by long-time Pittsburgh resident George L. Alexander MD before - https://www.friendsjournal.
What is the historical background of the First Amendment, which established the separation—what was it meant to achieve, and why? How can we understand the current struggle over the “wall of separation”? Is there a way to ameliorate this conflict? And how do Friends relate to the separation?
It seems both Alex O'Connor and George Alexander take far-reaching reasoning approaches to new developments in religion and legal questions in very edifying ways. And it seems like 'outgrowing God' and especially developing new language like 'nontheist f/Friends' offer potential F/friendly openings for the future idea-wise. I may add some of the above to the Philosophy of Language wiki subject page at NtFriendly-informed World University and School with time - https://wiki.
Nontheistically Friendly regards, Scott
P.S.
I plan to hold World Univ & Sch's Q&A, News and Conversation tomorrow 14 Oct at 1700 UTC - in LightStream, if you'd like to talk.
And would you like to join in in the upcoming CC-4 MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School's open Monthly Business Meeting, on Saturday, 19.10.19 at 1600 UTC (9am Pacific Time)?

Dear Universitians,
I plan to hold World Univ & Sch's Q&A, News and Conversation tomorrow 14 Oct at 1700 UTC - in LightStream, if you'd like to talk. (Thanks to Peter Bothe in Bremen, for helping to locate this next LightStream video conferencing platform which records to Youtube, in these regards especially - and re building relationships and communication!)
And would you like to join in in the upcoming CC-4 MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School's open Monthly Business Meeting, on Saturday, 19.10.19 at 1600 UTC (9am Pacific Time)?
Julian, you continue to be the named CEO of the WUaS Press / WUaS Corporation as WUaS continues to seek to become financially operational - and first on the 501 c 3 World University and School side.

to Peter
Peter,
Mehr unten and re was Andrew Hadyn Grant gesagt hat ... ("when 'blocked' go around", which I learned at the University of California, Santa Barbara as graduate student, is given so much new meaning with the distributed internet / Web and networking technologies :).
Vielen Dank, Peter @Peter_Bothe Ich habe dieses Video ueber Tableopia's The Manor Mystery gefunden https://youtu.be/GIUmFgKe2U0 Hier ist @WorldUnivAndSch's 'Gaming-Digital' wiki subject https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Gaming_-_Digital mit ein par Kursen von MIT & muss 'updaten' mit https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/comparative-media-studies-writing/cms-611j-creating-video-games-fall-2014/ ~
Hier sind die MIT Faculty intros - https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/comparative-media-studies-writing/cms-611j-creating-video-games-fall-2014/instructor-insights/meet-the-instructors/ davon auch.
Instructor Introduction: Philip Tan
Phillip Tan spielt Starcraft jeden Abend vor der schlaft 'to calm down' - interessant ...https://youtu.be/RY0X1oEQbb0
https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/comparative-media-studies-writing/cms-611j-creating-video-games-fall-2014/instructor-insights/meet-the-instructors/instructor-introduction-philip-tan/ ...
Hast du Starcraft gespielt? Er ist Strategie game.
Wirst du Game deacon / instructor am World University and School werden?
Hier ist Rik Eberhardt
https://youtu.be/HpACiptk990
https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/comparative-media-studies-writing/cms-611j-creating-video-games-fall-2014/instructor-insights/meet-the-instructors/instructor-introduction-richard-eberhardt/ er hat interesse in Anthropology um 8 Minutes und er denkt Menschen haben lange 'connected' durch Rituelle des Games um 9:35 Minuten... interessante!
Veilleicht koennen diese 4 MIT Instructoren Virtual Harbin bauen als Game, aber auch fuer wissenschaftliche Forschung !
Alle vier Instructoren sind sehr interessant:
Instructor Introduction: Sara Verrilli

'Um Gottes Willen,' wie Sie in Bayern sagen! :)
Alle diese vier MIT Digital Games' Instructoren haben viele Erfahrungen in Industrie, und nicht alle haben Ph.D.s, glaube ich. Sie sind auch alle gescheit
Peter, 10:57 AM
If you come to the game goto Skype-ID: klubtalk . I will then add you to the TABLETOPKLUB
Searched on 'klubtalk' found "KLUBTALK' with nothing there, said 'Hi' in it ... next?
It also looks like I'm already a 'member' of "KLUBTALK" - which now only has my one "Hi" in the chat stream and nothing else
I think I share this vision of Bernhard Drax - and for a kind of Mystery Manor showing now - https://twitter.com/draxtor/status/1183080447904870400 - and exp. in terms of entering into a live realistic virtual earth to play even such games as TableTopia's The NEW Mystery Manor ... and even then in a Realistic Virtual Earth, Peter :) Viel Spass!
Habe ich nicht von Dir gehoert, Peter!

Having listened to the last instructor Andrew Grant
I decided to check out Lego Lord of the Rings gaming -
Found:
LEGO The Lord of the Rings A cartoony action-adventure video game set in the Tolkien universe Source: https://lego-the-lord-of-the-rings.jaleco.com/ and http://fullgameload.blogspot.com/2014/01/free-download-lego-lord-of-rings-games.html
But herein lies a tale perchance -
"Yes, Lego Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit are no longer for sale online:
The answer is a simple one"
https://www.polygon.com/2019/1/6/18170661/lego-lord-of-the-rings-lego-the-hobbit-removed-steam-ps4-xbox-live
https://lego-the-lord-of-the-rings.en.softonic.com/mac
LEGO Lord of the Rings - All Cutscenes
https://youtu.be/m_CvoG3nY3Q
Found also per Andrew Grant -
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lego_Batman:_The_Videogame
Am interested in these games too for Lego Robotics and with Scratch programming languages, and as my kids come along too ... and re Actual-Virtual Physical-Digital questions in particular!
Alles Gute, Scott

Hallo Scott,
der Link zum YouTube Video hat nichts mit Tabletopia zu tun. Tabletopia ist eine virtuelle Plattform auf der du fertige Brett- und Kartenspiele oder deine eigenen Spiele mit anderen online spielen kannst. Für Spiele, die du selber entwickeltst, stellt Tabletopia Würfel, einfache Kartenspiel-Sets, Spielsteine, virtuelle Spieltische und vieles mehr kostenlos zur Verfügung. Du kannst auch deine eigenen Spielbretter, Spielsteine usw. hochladen.
Wir haben gestern mit Georgy und Florin mein neues Spiel ausprobiert und ich habe es gleichzeitig auch über Lightstream gestreamt. Lightstream hat eine sehr gute Audioqualität, Screen Share ist manchmal ein bisschen eigenwillig und auch die Videoqualität ist auch OK. Mittlereweile klappt es auch mit dem Umschalten zwischen den Szenen. Ich habe fast 1 Stunde gestreamt und die gesamte Aufnahme war durchgegehend von guter Qualität. Einzigster negativer Punkt bei Lightstream ist, dass du aufpassen musst nicht mehrere Audioquellen für das Mikrofon zu verwenden. Manchmal benutzt Lightstream Studio mehr als eine Mikrofonquelle und dann erzeugt dieses natürlich einen verzerrtes Audio (Echo u.ä.).
Schönes Wochenende,
Peter

Komisch, Peter,
Wenn ich nach "TableTopia's Mystery Manor" in Google Search suche, finde ich und nichts anders als - https://youtu.be/GIUmFgKe2U0 ... Gibt es ein Youtube oder Video fuer Deine TableTopia? Hier ist die Blogpost ueber MIT OCW Video Games, und zum Teil, TableTopia - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/10/new-zealands-southern-alps-world-univ.html.
Schöne Woche,
ScottUnd hier sind die WUaS LightStreams von heute - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/10/pinus-longaeva-bristlecone-pine-world.html ... Danke wieder!

Hi M,
It may have been good, Ma, to have missed Shady Side Academy 'Homecoming' this year, and Bartley Griffith's installation as incoming President ... re getting his feet on the ground. He could be a helpful WUaS ally and even with regard to online high school IB Diplomas - https://wiki.
What are you up to this week?
L, Scott
