Once again, great podcast.

With regards to the question of whether or not spirituality is innate, I would say it is not. What is innate, however, is the human desire to understand the world around us and our place in it. How we go about satisfying this desire is what defines our spirituality, I think. Some believe in a higher power, some rely on human reason, but the goal for all is the same.

As for future suggestions, I am still a fan of my idea here.

-I think that's true and ties in nicely with mk's comment at the end. It's sort of our natural condition.

I like your suggestion, there are certainly enough scientists on the site to participate. It might be a nice juxtaposition to all the ice bucket stuff going on.
