We dismantle the PR spin and modern day myth of the sadistic Albanian hypocrite who was recently given sainthood by an international cabal of child rapists.
Back from summer hiatus, we talk about the rising number of Millennials who identify as nonbelievers, the Black Lives Matter movement, and the existential threat of Trump and his theocratic goons.
We interview Dr. Dan Fincke of Camels with Hammers concerning violence. Is it ever justified? What is the metric we can use to determine the appropriate use of violence if it is? Check out http://www.patheos.com/blogs/camelswithhammers/ or h
Why do people resist admitting that they're wrong? Why is "let's agree to disagree" preferable to actually updating your worldview to be more accurate with reality? The old bugbear of confirmation bias haunts us again this episode.
God's even less dead with the sequel that hit theaters yesterday! Find out what happens to a teacher who so much as MENTIONS Jesus in a school in Arkansas that exists inside the deranged martyr fantasies of evangelical Christians! Seriously, w
Another terror attack. Yay religion! Also, motivated reasoning, liberal extremism and why universal healthcare is a moral issue.
Narcissism is a word that gets used colloquially. But it is also a diagnostic used in psychological medicine. Does Trump suffer from Narcissistic Personality Disorder or is he just a dick?
We read an article about Hillary Clinton that attempts to defend her from her Democrat detractors. Some points sway us, others, not so much. Also: Bernie Sanders as potentially the first non-Christian president since the 1700's? Exciting tim
We discuss the concept of kafkatrapping and how to avoid it. How can the left have constructive discourse where all ideas can be scrutinized while still signal boosting the voices of minorities? No easy answer, but an important discussion to
Should we support the troops even if we don't agree with them? Why is secular government part of the Constitution? Are American laws based on the 10 Commandments? What is the psychology behind motivated reasoning and how can we learn to be le
We discuss an old cracked.com article offering a behind the scenes look at life as a Mormon Missionary, aka cult brainwashing 101. David gives his own personal glimpse behind the curtain. To read the original article, visit http://www.cracked
Reupload of episode 36 with better sound quality after I effed up the compression. Hopefully this sounds much better. Sorry, folks! :)
Due to audio issues, we've recompressed and rereleased the last two podcasts. Sorry for the audible assault!
We look into the issues of racism, terrorism and the Mormon background to the Oregon militia standoff.
We respond to a listener's question about being a high school atheist in a Catholic school, and give advice for secular students everywhere. JT Eberhard joins us to share his expertise.
After a series of unfortunate events, David found himself taking comfort in being an atheist. What does atheism help with and what is more difficult because of atheism? That's a good question, thanks for asking.
Last one was just a text file, oops! Can atheists proselytize? Are we really pressing our beliefs, thoughts, or "religion" on others? Should we? When should we play nice, and when should we stand up for ourselves?
We discuss the function and effects of trigger warnings, as well as how America has behaved after the November 13th terrorist attacks in France.
Leaving the supernatural behind makes demons and witchcraft a lot less scary. How Heaven and Hell are behavioral control mechanisms dialed up to the max.
We discuss Plato's dialogue in which Socrates deconstructs the ideas of justice, piety, and divinity. Why do Christians have a double standard for mythologies that don't come from ancient Israel?
We get a little snooty about academia. Not every PhD is created equal. Also, schools continue to get confused about what the separation of church and state means.
Odds and ends as the Republicans continue to self destruct, going down kicking and screaming as gay marriage sweeps the nation and God threatens to destroy any county not protected by non binding prayer resolutions passed by a three fourths maj
Mississippi makes headlines about school football and religion...again. Another horrifying mass shooting takes place in an American college...again. Not a cheerful episode.
The Pope's visit brings adulation from the media, who seem willing to ignore a host of horrific bigoted nonsense for a few trite talking points. Also, what happens when skepticism becomes cynicism?
