17. Agnostic Pet Peeves with Spiritual Sloppiness-- Sterre Mense (Part 1)


Listen Later

Sterre Mense is a critical thinker, a skeptic of religiosity, and the boyfriend of our former guest, Kristina. He joins Scott and Joey to discuss some of his feedback from their previous episodes, which led to a discussion of some of his pet peeves revolving around how people talk about spirituality.

Things such as:

1. Spirituality as a means of relinquishing responsibility for your life to a deity.

2. Agnostics who say the universe is so big that there must be something out there.

3. How the thought of this life being all there is makes people depressed.

4. How unfairness in the universe leading people to want a “god”.

5. And how the term faith really needs to defined.

Other Topics Discussed:

Joey on making Sterre throw up in his mouth. Sterre on his obsession with optimizing his life. Scott on building a baby room for his baby. The impact of being raised without a religious background. The exhilarating prospect of no afterlife. And how to find your purpose in life in a universe that doesn’t give a F about you.
