John Grohol, PsyD, has a new post on psychcentral.com about “Another Brain Fad for Depression?“  He notes, and this is my phrasing, that the serotonin theory of depression has finally gone the way of the dodo bird.  I felt pretty certain this would happen sooner or later.  But, it’s only to be replaced with a new theory for the meager effects of antidepressants….”they heal brain cells.”  It’s a cute new theory that I expect to be presented as fact in the new bouncing smiley comercials for Zoloft.

Now, you’ve read atheists assert that there is such a thing as free will, objective morality, and so forth without God.  There’s a good post on Uncommon Descent that shows atheists who do no agree with this position.  I recommend watching the video, as it is very illuminating.

What happens when we assume there is no design in life?

Here are links to my previous posts on Some Psychological Aspects of Atheism (Part I, and Part II) and Since the atheists are about the only ones commenting on my posts.
