Bob unpacks the history of Hell and Cass shares the scariest thing he's ever done--leave Christianity.
Kim's journey out of her Church of Christ family legacy and the scarlet letter it pinned on her (twice) has not diminished her love of spiritual speculation regarding the ontological questions. She's an open book, unashamed of her humanity and expresses that on her blog, "The Cultivated Mother." Great talk, see ya out there!
This conversation with Sam Bowman is fast, a little scattered, but we cover a lot of ground and glean some of Sam’s hard-earned wisdom. He has hopped many a theological train in a catch-and-release evolution of his personal philosophy. It gets pretty weird...and enriching.
David followed Bob's footsteps into radio, TV, and film. You've heard his voice-overs, you've seen him on TV. Our first Ayn Randian, Objectivist, Ultra-Capitalist Conservative, Atheist Jew. I think this is Bob's funniest show ever. David was a pioneer in podcastinig in the 90's. He brings his power-voice to the table. Enjoy!
Bob presents a talk on "Good Without God," Cass talks about strange bedfellows around Islamophobia, and friend David Suhor's brave stand for religious freedom. We feature the song, "Take Me To Church" by Hozier. Dig it!
Roger is the most theistic guest we've ever had. He's an ordained Methodist minister on the campus of Univ of Colorado, Boulder. He's one of many voices in Progressive Christianity. Author of "Kissing Fish: Christianity for People Who Don't Like Christianity." Roger is a great communicator; he almost re-converted me and he's not even trying.
Our first anonymous guest, Slink, shares his story of being a secret atheist (who's conservative), a hemophiliac, HIV positive, and his plight as a single, adult male wanting to work with children (and have one). He sings, he jokes (of a trite, last encounter with his estranged biologicial father, and he has no vices. Featuring songs from Johnny Cash and XTC. Dig in!
I discuss the first 17 items on American Atheists list of 40 harmful effects of Christianity. And Neil Carter's review of the movie "God's Not Dead." Christian author Rachel Held Evans recommended the review to her flock. I address the question, "does the anus double as a sex organ?" from personal experimentation. I plug "The Partially Examined Life" philosophy podcast. I briefly address Sam Harris' new book, "Waking Up." Interject some Hitchens and Carlin before I just ran out of gas taping in the middle of the night.
Wayne's pilgrimage took him to every major religion and its practices to see what works. From Jesus to Rumi to Ganesh to the Tao. Listen as Wayne shares a rigorous search for "truth" in the most pragmatic sense. He wrestles not with religions or the contradictions in his own life. There's something here for us to learn.
This week we took the week off from our regular interviews to feature a long-time favorite of Cass' Non-Stamp Collector YouTube guy. It's comic relief and serious at the same time. Enjoy and learn!
