Atheist Roundtable

By the time this show airs, we should have some seriously groundbreaking news from the Supreme Court.  Prop 8 and DOMA are on the table.

I'll be joined by my good friend, Rob Everhardt.  Rob's been on the show before, and we usually talk about the gay rights issue.  This should be fun!

Plus your calls.

Equals a bigger, better gay old time.

Rob didn't show, so here's the link from my actual guest, Walter Beck:

Believers are better than their religion.  Christians are better than christ, muslims are better than allah.  We know this.  People are kind, loving, compassionate and wonderful.  The gods of religion are evil, spiteful, vengeful and just plain nasty.

How do believers square their goodness with the evil of their beliefs?  How do good people worship the diety Dawkins called the worst character in all of fiction?

I'll give my thoughts on how this is.  If you have an opinion, call in and give it.

It will be better than god.

Ever have a Near Death Expirience?  It's when you come close to death, but don't actually die.  People see lights, old relatives, or even their entire lives flash before their eyes.

People think NDE's are proof of an afterlife.  What if an atheist has an NDE?

Once, I believed in an afterlife.  Then I had my own NDE.  What does an atheist do with the afterlife after faith?

Plus your calls.

You know what burns my britches?  Abstinence only sex education!  What a load of bologna!!  

Tune in for a rant about the dangers of this insane nonsense taught to children about their bodies, and how they should work.

Plus, your calls.

Everyone will orgasm by the end of the show.

It could be your host is getting lazy and won't commit to a topic.  Or he is being generous and letting callers set the pace.  You decide.

Call in and share your thoughts.

Unelss you want to listen to me ramble on for 30 minutes, you'll call in and give us all something to discuss.

Yup.  I've no idea what the topic of this show will be.  It'd be a great chow for you to call in.  I've got nothing.  why don't you sound off?

Is evolution "just a theory?"  Can evolution be proven?  Were you there?  How do you know the earth is 4.5 billion years old?  

Let's take a look at what a theory is, how it becomes a theory and what happens if evidence challenges it.

Plus, let's talk about creationism and it's arguments.  Is intellegent desgin different?  What is Irreducible complexity?

And of course, your calls.

Equals more fun than a crocoduck rodeo.

I don't think I want a topic for this show.  I want to get a few random things off my chest.  Like the exclusion of atheists from the interfaith ceremony after th Boston bombings.  And some abstinance only sex windbag and the teenage hero who has the guts to stand up against it.

 

So this show is all random ramblings from your host.

Which pretty much makes it the same as every other show.

Does it take more faith to be an atheist?  What is a "faith-eist"?  How come some christians tell me that they do not have enough faith to be an atheist?

Is atheism a religion?  Do we have churches and leaders and prophets and such?  Are we mobilizing? Are we coming together and acting as a group?  Are we united under that banner of atheism?

I'll give my take on these, and you chould call and give your point of view.

Guarnteed to be more fun than a sharp stick in the eye.
