SecularPerspective

On March 26, 2015 Governor Mike Pence signed SB101 which is broadly worded enough that would allow business owners to legally discriminate again whomever they wish if it allegedly goes against their personal religious beliefs. It has had a huge backlash in Indiana and Anthony and Chad had a little bit to say about it.

TSP 35: Heathen Hodgepodge 6 – The Ark Encounter Loses and The Guys Check In (Anthony and Chad)

It would be fair to say we talk about Ken Ham too much. He, and his organization, made some more waves in the news lately, and the guys had to discuss it. Then Chad and Anthony check in on their latest endeavors into secular and religious research.

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.

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.
