Gone, but not forgotten

Last year, Humanist Society of West Yorkshire member and Humanist representative on Leeds SACRE Gerry Hannant sadly passed away.

However, while he may be gone, he certainly is not forgotten, thanks to Worfolk Lectures, an online archive of atheist lectures, that recovered the only known recording of his talk "Scientific Standards: Does Religion Measure Up?" and published it on their website. The talk was given during Rationalist Week 2007, the first ever awareness week run by Leeds Atheist Society. Since then the awareness week has grown into a veritable festival of reason and many other talks from their archives are taken from such weeks too.
