June 14, 2019 Christian Persecution Complex
"Christian persecution complex is a belief, attitude or world view that Christian values and Christians are being oppressed by social groups and governments. This belief is thought to be held by certain American Protestant Churches, some Christian- or Bible-based cults and in Europe as well. It is has been called the 'Evangelical', 'American Christian' or 'Christian Right' 'Persecution Complex.'"

- Wikipedia

☝️Yeah, what they said.

Join us as we dive into the most thin-skinned and obnoxious whiners of the faith. Christians in America aren't being persecuted, they're just upset because they can't get their way. The Christian persecution complex is well bred into the DNA of American Christianity and keeps the faithful from actually experience their faith. It's a lie. It's fake. It's a spiritual cop-out and an insult to those in other areas of the world actually being persecuted. If people don't respond well to you being a hateful, bigoted, and judgmental, it's not persecution, you're just an asshole.
Come along for the ride as we skewer through life, culture, and spirituality in the face of a changing world.

May 30, 2019 Baptists & Sex Robots
Leave it to the Baptists to invent new things for us to fear, condemn, and judge. With technology rapidly changing, we all need to fear the take over of sex robots. It’s kind of like the Terminator with a little more lube. Recently the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention compiled …

May 30, 2019 Baptists & Robot Sex
Leave it to the Baptists to invent new things for us to fear, condemn, and judge. With technology rapidly changing, we all need to fear the take over of sex robots. It's kind of like the Terminator with a little more lube.

Recently the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention compiled an extensive statement on the evangelical stance on artificial intelligence that no one was asking for. And yes, these are the same asshats that signed the anti-LGBTQ Nashville Statement... so you know it's bound full of grace and compassion. Sadly, even sex robots aren't welcome in church anymore. 😢

Fear not! Snark and mockery still reign supreme on this show. So, buckle up and pack your rubbers because we'll have a fun ride breaking down Southern Baptist's stances on AI in a way that even sex robots will rejoice. 🤖🎉🍆🍑🌮💦

May 22, 2019 A Different Palm Sunday
Palm Sunday is the oft-overlooked appetizer that leads us to Easter. We know how the story ends, so we rush through it as if it’s a preamble. Once we look deeper a the events that surround Jesus’s entry into Jerusalem before his death, it starts to make the entire narrative take a different shape. These …

May 22, 2019 Palm Sunday
Palm Sunday is the oft-overlooked appetizer that leads us to Easter. We know how the story ends, so we rush through it as if it's a preamble. Once we look deeper a the events that surround Jesus's entry into Jerusalem before his death, it starts to make the entire narrative take a different shape. These events are way more political and way less spiritual than it seems. So, I think it's far time we rethink Palm Sunday.

May 13, 2019 The Trump Dump
Ordinary people when working together have the power to break the backs of important empires. And the empire, when people are united, is never stronger than the will of the people. – Ruby Sales We’re living in a post-Muller report world and it’s a stark reminder that we put too much faith in saviors.

May 13, 2019 The Trump Dump
We're living in a post-Muller report world and it's a stark reminder that we put too much faith in saviors. Your political persuasion doesn't matter. Whether we had the hope that Muller would save us from the ongoing Trump dump or if we thought that Trump was the orange messiah to save us from the brink, we were fooling ourselves. When we put hope in false messiahs, we're abdicating our own role in change. We're ignoring our own abilities, talents, perspectives, and greatness.

We always seem to be in a search for people that offer us the solutions that lead us towards change. They could be politicians, celebrities, pastors, authors or influencers but they're all the same. They're only a distraction and a false hope. When will we wake up and realize this?

If we want real and lasting change, the hard work in making the world a better place is in our hands. To change our communities, we don't need messiahs or saviors. We need ordinary people working together for a common cause. The saviors are dangerous when we expect them to fix everything.

Don't underestimate yourself. Change comes from all of us doing our part to make a difference. Change starts with you.

May 06, 2019 The Gospel of Grifters
Since when did it be okay that the gospel of grace has been replaced by the gospel of grifters. The sacred message of Jesus’ love for mankind has been hijacked by charlatans, con artists, televangelists, and conspiracy prophets. Instead of being driven by love and compassion, the faith is now fueled by greed and lust …

Since when did it be okay that the gospel of grace has been replaced by the gospel of grifters. The sacred message of Jesus' love for mankind has been hijacked by charlatans, con artists, televangelists, and conspiracy prophets. Instead of being driven by love and compassion, the faith is now fueled by greed and lust for power.

Join us as we talk about the rift between the mission of God and the gospel of grifters that currently run the ship.

The attack was the worst mass shooting in New Zealand’s history. What do we do when the world is in chaos and things cease to make sense? Violence begets violence and …

About Snarky Faith

From the publisher's feed

Hosted by Stuart Delony, Snarky Faith cuts through the noise of American Christianity with wit, reason, and a little righteous anger. It’s where satire meets soul work—a space for skeptics, seekers, and the spiritually homeless. Each episode dives into the absurdities of faith, politics, and culture while holding onto the radical, justice-centered teachings of Jesus. No dogma. No easy answers. Just honesty, humor, and the occasional heresy.
