George Clooney (1961)

George Clooney

It was on this date, May 6, 1961, in Lexington, Kentucky, that the American actor George Clooney was born. The nephew of the late singer and actress Rosemary Clooney, he is also the cousin of actor Miguel Ferrer. Clooney got a small part in one film and was bitten by the acting bug. His first steady TV role was in the medical show “E/R.” He has since starred in several films, mostly about thieves and robbers.

Clooney was profiled in the Washington Post on September 28, 1997. In that interview, he told writer Sharon Waxman, “I don’t believe in Heaven and Hell. I don’t know if I believe in God. All I know is that as an individual, I won’t allow this life — the only thing I know to exist — to be wasted.”

Freethought Almanac was created by Ronald Bruce Meyer, in collaboration with freethoughtradio.com, in March 2003. What started with a brief notice on the birthday of Albert Einstein, grew into almost 250,000 words on not only biography but history, philosophy, theology and politics — one day at a time. Freethought Almanac looks at these daily subjects from a godless point of view, that is, a point of view that is based not on fantasies, delusions or wishful thinking, but a view that is evidence-based.
