Truth Wanted 07.10 with Jon the Skeptick and Drew Bekius


Listen Later

In today’s episode of Truth Wanted, Jon the Skeptic and Drew Bekius navigate through the Paw Paw Tunnel dodging Australian Raptors and Owl Man all while knowing that the tunnel was created by a creator. But not to worry! No flashlights are needed because Jamie the Blind Limey safely guides them to the end where light is shed on the existence of trans people. 

Ben in VA had an experience in the Paw Paw Tunnel where he heard coins being thrown and sounds like people behind him. On a scale of one to ten, how convinced are you that it was something paranormal? If you are at a six, what would it take to get you to a ten, or bring it down to zero? Have you ruled out all possibilities like having change in your pocket that was dropped? What is the most simple explanation for this? Stories of events can grow over time becoming more juicy and exaggerated. 


Joshua in GA asks the hosts what cryptid they believe or hope exists. He believes that the Australian Raptor, Owl Man, and the Mongolian Death Worm existed, but just not 300 feet long. What is it that convinces you these things exist? Could Owl Man just be a large owl? We hope these things exist and will have drinks with them if so!
Elane in KY knows a game creator that was an atheist but now believes because if we can create worlds, then there could be a creator of this one. What good reason would we have to conclude this is true? 


Jamie the Blind Limey in TX asks for ideas on how to educate people about the existence of trans people. It is not just how someone feels; there are at least five different stages of sexual development in the uterus that are observable. At least one in fifty people have intersexual development. You can ask people how this community has affected you personally. When people set themselves up as the ultimate authority, try to help them realize that they may not see everything accurately, and ask if there are areas that they misread. By questioning, get them to see that they are not the genius of all geniuses for all things.
