TSP 33: The Global Threat to Secularism (Chad and Anthony)

Right Click Image, Save As to download the episode…

Have you ever felt threatened or ostracized as an open secularist? If you haven’t, you’ve probably heard stories from around the world. Here in the United States atheists are allowed a voice, but are often criticized and excluded for doing so. However, this pales in comparison to the global threat to secularism. The truth is, in some places around the world a person could be put to death for simple apostasy. Chad and Anthony feel that the global atheist community needs to come together in an effort to stop these atrocities. Listen to us discuss this disturbing trend.

TSP 31: Heathen Hodgepodge 5 – Batfleck is dumb and JOSH FEUERSTEIN (Anthony & Matt)

Right Click Image, Save As to download the episode…

Here is another Heathen Hodgepodge entry, where anything is game for discussion. We typically bring up news, articles and happenings in the world of religion and secularism. In this episode, Matt vents about and criticizes the internet’s favorite proselytizer, Josh Feuerstein after he selfishly tried to make a dying woman feel bad. Then, Anthony tears into Ben Affleck (Batfleck) for his idiotic tantrum on “Real Time with Bill Maher.”

TSP 30: The ISIS Conflict (Anthony)

Right Click Image, Save As to download the episode…

Have you been intimidated or weary of trying to understand the ISIS conflict in the Middle East? Are you hesitant to criticize Islam? Are you curious about this issue, but can’t figure it out? Anthony was just as conflicted about ISIS. So he decided to research the topic and truly understand it. This episode is a summation of the conflict and an exploration of what the problem is.

*Disclaimer: Anthony is not a professionally educated expert on any subject mentioned in this episode. This is all information gathered from the news and periodicals. If there is anything you’d care to comment on, correct, or ask, please contact the podcast or Anthony directly.

* Disclaimer: Anthony messed up some logistics and directions a few times. He said that ISIS was “marching east into Syria.” Syria is actually west of Iraq. Then, Lebanon and Israel are west of Syria on the Mediterranean Sea. Apologies.

TSP 28: Secular Bible Study – Exodus Part II (Anthony)

Right Click Image, Save As to download the episode…

If you have ever wondered how an atheist reads The Bible, this episode is for you. Anthony discusses his notes and thoughts that crossed his mind as he read Exodus. This is the second episode of the series Secular Bible Study where Anthony reads through The Bible for the first time as a secularist.

Eventually, all 66 books will be covered. Anthony had quite a few things to say and share, so the recording is being broken up into two parts. You can look forward to the rest of the discussion in the coming weeks!

If you have ever wondered how an atheist reads The Bible, this episode is for you. Anthony discusses his notes and thoughts that crossed his mind as he read Genesis. This is the second episode of the series Secular Bible Study where Anthony reads through The Bible for the first time as a secularist.

Eventually, all 66 books will be covered. Anthony had quite a few things to say and share, so the recording is being broken up into two parts. You can look forward to the rest of the discussion in the coming weeks!

*Disclaimer: Several times Anthony referred to the book of Exodus as a “chapter.” He meant to say “book.” Apologies for that.

TSP 24: AiG Shakes Down Chad

Right Click Image, Save As to download the episode…

Back in February of 2014, Chad purchased the DVD of the Bill Nye vs. Ken Ham debate from the Answers In Genesis organization. As a result, Chad has been regretfully added to the AiG mailing list. So a few weeks ago he received a letter from AiG asking him to donate to the museum itself and it’s new Ark Encounter attraction. This is a reading of that letter.

Podcast – TSP 22: Heathen Hodgepodge 3: Poems, YouTube Atheism, and Ken Ham

Right Click Image, Save As to download the episode…

Anthony reads two poems (feel free to skip this), and Chad shares an STD themed haiku (it’s amazing). The hosts give props to the underappreciated Jaclyn Glenn and other women of YouTube, who have their content ignored by horny dudes. Teaching kids fairytales as though they’re reality affects their ability to think critically ….. huh, who would’ve thought? Ken Ham said things … again.
