The Secular Perspective

We dive in yet again into the world of the Catholic church. This time to talk about the number of gay priests in the Catholic Church. We hit on the 2 latest Cardinals to be found guilty of abuse. And finally, talk about a historic nun that faked her own death to escape to a world of lust and debauchery.

We start with a review of this documentary that just released on Netflix. (There are spoilers, so if you are worried about that you can skip to about the 20 minute mark.)

We also speak on a fundraiser for Planned Parenthood and Brett Kavanaugh making his own separate descent on a case dealing with abortion laws. We wrap up with abuse that nuns are dealing with at the hands of priests.

A superintendent of a school in Indiana was arrested for using her insurance to try to get healthcare for a student in need. We also discuss a gay conversion therapist that has now come out as being gay himself. Measles is making a comeback due to the anti-vaccination movement. And we find more hypocrisy from Christian right.

This week we talk about the Roger Stone Arrest and the government reopening. Amanda is still on her soapbox about the Covington High School kids. We ‘rap it up’ with nurse in Arizona accused of rapping a woman in a coma. Turns out he had a Christian rap duo with his sister as well.

Due to the popularity of a bonus episode we did a couple of months ago we are going to begin doing one extra episode each month as a bonus I will call After Hours. In these, we will talk about things we have going on in our personal lives be it just a small antic-dote, or a long-needed vent session. In this first episode, we talk about what happened while we were on hiatus for a month.

After a month long hiatus, we are finally back. We jump right in to the latest news that has come up in the past week. This includes Karen Pence’s new job at an anti-LGBT Christian School and the Buzzfeed article about Micheal Cohen saying he was directed to lie to Congress. We also dig in to the controversy surrounding some students in MAGA hats and a Native American Veteran at the Lincoln Memorial.

Some far right wingers in the EU are boycotting Toblerone because of Islamophobia. We have discovered that there is a Jewish Santa Claus running around out there. We also discuss the disastrous funeral in Michigan that was ruined by a former coach and the pastor. Salt Bae is put into The Last Supper and people are arrested for it. Finally someone wants to melt purity rings to make a vagina statue.

We wrap up with a discussion about where the new year will take us. We will be off for the next couple of weeks while Chad wraps up his schooling and Amanda goes on vacation.

It’s a new Christmas season with another round of nativity scenes with cages and fences. We also go over a wide range of topics including Maria Butina pleading guilty to being a Russian agent, Cardinal Pell being found guilty of abuse, and funding Trumps border wall. Also included is our live reactions to the senate approving a bill that includes funding for the border wall just to keep the government from shutting down.

This week we discuss the current (as the this recording) standing of the Mueller investigation in regards to Michael Cohen and Paul Manafort. Then we touch of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and he clap backs to just about everyone. And finally we talk about a man that wanted to legally change his age from 69 to 49.
