A couple weeks ago, I had the privilege of meeting one Dr. Greg Graffin, a self-titled naturalist, evolutionist, and punk rocker. He's currently teaching the non-majors Evolution class at Cornell University (the one I'm pissed they didn't let me take when the notorious Will Provine was still teaching it because I was in the evolution major). I realize I'm in a small circle of people that know of Graffin through his atheism/evolution work at Cornell and his crusade to spread that knowledge.
So I didn't know til about 2 years ago that he's also the singer of the punk band, Bad Religion (awesomesauce).
He's got a book out (Anarchy Evolution: Faith, Science, and Bad Religion in a World Without God) and was/is about the nicest guy I've met. Clearly busy, but willing to spend a few minutes chatting with my friends and I, he's got passion for two things I can relate to: evolution AND art. What a chill dude.
