THE STONE - Opinionator This is the second in a series of interviews about religion that I am conducting for The Stone. The interviewee for this installment is Louise Antony, a professor of philosophy at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and the editor of the essay collection “Philosophers Without Gods: Meditations on Atheism and the Secular Life.” Gary Gutting: You’ve taken a strong stand as an atheist, so you obviously don’t think there are any good reasons to believe in God. But I imagine there are philosophers whose rational abilities you respect who are theists. How do you explain their disagreement with you? Are they just not thinking clearly on this topic?

Psychological ("personality") Types Psychological ("personality") Types According to Jung's theory of Psychological Types we are all different in fundamental ways. One's ability to process different information is limited by their particular type. These types are sixteen. Color Theory Basics In color mixing for painting, the fundamental rule is that there are three colors that cannot be made by mixing other colors together. These three, red, blue, and yellow, are known as the primary colors. What Happens When You Mix Primary Colors? If you mix two primaries together, you create what is called a secondary color. Mixing blue and red creates purple; red and yellow make orange; yellow and blue make green.

Color Psychology by David Johnson Like death and taxes, there is no escaping color. It is ubiquitous. Yet what does it all mean? Manual Photography: The Ultimate Cheat Sheet After having worked with my co-workers here at Bit Rebels for over two years now, we have a certain way of talking when we suggest certain topics to each other. It’s usually about images or videos of different kinds, which sometimes leads us into talking about photography in general. I don’t think any one of us has the advanced photographer badge yet, but having seen literally thousands of images and photos over the last two years, I would say we are at least mildly discussing photos from time to time. Sometimes it’s only about the apparent lack of images on our own Facebook profiles, or whatever social media services we are using. Even though I have a pretty standard camera (apart from my iPhone camera that is), I am not the most advanced photographer. I find myself taking quite horrendous images sometimes, and I should really look into the settings on my camera and how to use them.
