Science Blogger and outspoken Atheist Dr. Martin Rundkvist is a Swedish archaeologist affiliated with the University of Chester. He is the managing editor of Fornvännen, Sweden's foremost archaeological journal. Yusie Chou is a journalist and broadcaster. She was raised in Mao's China and came to Sweden at age seven with her family. Rundkvist and Chou live and work in Sweden; a culture and a country in which atheism is the norm and the mention of god or Jesus by a politician is frowned upon. On the show, Dr. Greg Laden and our guests will discuss atheism from this perspective, and contrast what it is like to live in a primarily atheist vs. a primarily theist society. We will also discuss how atheism and atheists interface with the society in which they are embedded can be very different depending on context. In addition, we can find out if a nation transforming over to atheism actually does experience the doomsday scenario painted by many outspoken American religious leaders. We may also talk a bit about our guests' reaction to Nordic culture in Minnesota and Swedish archaeology. Greg Laden is a frequent guest and interviewer on our show. He is a biological anthropologist with field work experience in Africa. http://scienceblogs.com/aardvarchaeology/
