One fateful February evening in 2013 the scientist and revered personality Bill Nye traveled to Kentucky to debate Ken Ham, the CEO and founder of Answers in Genesis, on the viability of The Creation Theory. That was one year ago. As you’ll learn in this episode, this debate was instrumental in the founding of this podcast. Anthony and Chad have wanted to discuss and breakdown this debate for a long time. This episode is the culmination of tons of research and work about Creation and this debate specifically. Please join us while we break down, critique and discuss the debate between these two titans of their respective worldviews.

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

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.

Chad is being further hounded for money by Ken Ham and his cronies at The Ark Encounter. He’s learning the hard way what it’s like to be stuck on a mailing list. This is a reading of the letter that attempts to squeeze said donation out of Chad. You also get an update on the current and future outlook for The Secular Perspective Podcast.

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.”

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!

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

In this episode we are launching a new type of episode called “At the Movies.” With this format we will be watching a feature film that thematically fits with the content of this podcast. Not every movie will be blatantly religious or secular, but it might hit some marks that are relevant to what we want to do with The Secular Perspective.

We would also like to invite the audience to suggest movies that would make for a good discussion. Feel free to send those suggestions and recommendations through the proper channels.

The Unbelievers (2013)

Director – Gus Holwerda

Writer – Gus Holwerda, Luke Holwerda, Laurence Krauss

Starring – Richard Dawkins and Laurence Krauss

Synopsis – Renowned scientists Richard Dawkins and Lawrence Krauss cross the globe as they speak publicly about the importance of science and reason in the modern world.

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.
