The Godless Spellchecker Podcast

Muhammad Syed (@motheatheist) and Sarah Haider (@SarahTheHaider) of The Ex-Muslims Of North America (@ExMuslimsOfNa) join me on this week's #GSPodcast.  We discuss the wonderful work they are doing in providing a support network for people leaving the Islamic faith.  They tell us about their own 'apostasy' and explain the issues surrounding the depiction of Muhammad in the wake of the horrific Charlie Hebdo attacks.  We also discuss anti-Muslim bigotry, 'Islamophobia', gender segregation and freedom of expression.  Please show them some support.

Professor of sociology, Phil Zuckerman (@Phil_Zuckerman) joins me on The #GSPodcast to discuss his new book 'Living The Secular Life: New Answers To Old Questions'.  We talk about the sociological underpinnings for faith, vegetarianism, The Constitution and why secular humanism is preferable to a religious world-view. Also, can kids have a good Christmas without Santa? And I ask the most controversial #GSPodcast question to date: Batman or Superman?

Jonny Scaramanga (@JonnyScaramanga) drops in on The #GSPodcast to tell us all about Accelerated Christian Education.  ACE is a fundamentalist Christian schooling system.  Jonny has lived through this system and now spends his time campaigning to raise awareness of the harm it causes.  We talk about the deeply troubling curriculum, which includes racism, sexism, corporal punishment and an insistence that The Loch Ness monster disproves evolution!  Please support Jonny and the fine work he is doing.
