On this Good Friday, we explore a major contradiction in today's culture: growing openness to spirituality—from tarot to Buddhism—while Christianity is increasingly viewed as repressive or outdated. With references to Tara Isabella Burton's Strange Rites, Tom Holland's historical insights, and classic Christian apologetics, Cameron and Nathan unpack why this religiously remixed culture prefers personal preference over theological truth.We also touch on Matt Dillahunty's secular morality, the idea of “it works until it doesn't,” and how Western values are deeply shaped by a Christian conscience—even when people reject Christ.This episode is for Christians seeking thoughtful engagement with the culture, and for those wrestling with faith and reason in an age of consumer religion and moral confusion.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.Subscribe for more deep theological discussion, Christian worldview content, and cultural commentary rooted in biblical truth.
In this episode Trent chronicles the rise and fall of "New Atheism". Refuting "A Manual for Creating Atheists" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMAttLyTypg The Lesson to Learn from Matt Dillahunty's Rage Quit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7I3ChyE33U DOES GOD EXIST? Trent Horn vs. Ben Watkins (live, in-person debate) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GTPwaU3JAU8
Questions about whether God is just a way of solving a mystery by appealing to a greater mystery, whether subjective experience falls under a category of knowing, why people in the Bible got to hear and see God but we don't, and an analogy between God and Hitler. How would you respond to Matt Dillahunty, who says that God is just a way of solving a mystery by appealing to a greater mystery? Does my undeniable, subjective experience of God fall under a category of knowing in epistemology? Why did the people in the Bible get to hear and see God while they were alive, but we have to die first? How would you respond to someone who asked, “If a Jew during the Holocaust was spared the gas chamber in favor of spending the rest of his life with Hitler, would he call that Heaven?”

Do we still believe in God? Let's chat losing belief, spiritual encounters, and leaving the church "just to sin"! Emily introduces the new co-host of CGGB and former guest, Heather Leith. We talk about where we've been since the listeners last heard from us and spill the tea on why Lauren is no longer hosting.Heather comes out as an atheist! She explains how she went from identifying as a progressive Christian back in Season 1 to now being a big, bad ex-Christian. She discusses how digging into her faith caused it to fall apart and where she finds meaning now as a nonbeliever. Emily chats about her newfound freedom in being curious without certainty as the end goal, and shares about a recent spiritual experience that she can't quite explain. She also talks about being more settled in her post-evangelical life and why she's not going as crazy for deconstruction stuff as she used to.We also touch on:Developing a sexual ethic without purity culture telling you what to do"Church hurt" and what happens when you were the one doing the hurtingHow heartbreaking deconstruction can be when you're in the middle of itFeeling brainwashed about women pastors in the pastThinking they were cool for going to "deep" churchesShit-talking the Southern Baptist ConventionSecretly watching debates with atheists while at Bible collegeStay bad, Baddies!Resources mentioned in the episode:The Atheist Experience YouTube channel — Heather likes Matt Dillahunty and Forrest Valkai episodes in particular, but beware this channel can get INTENSE!Bart Ehrman's Misquoting Jesus podcast — Helpful for understanding how the gospels were written and how the Bible was put togetherSome podcasts that Emily's partner works on that you might like:- You Have Permission- EmergedThis Dear Evan Hansen song lolBe a Baddie with us on social media!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/churchgirlsgonebad/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@churchgirlsgonebadpod?_t=8kRHLVzQ9oB&_r=1

In this episode of "The Tall Friendly Atheist Dad Podcast", I respond to the video taking over atheist YouTube - Redeemed Zoomer's ALL atheist arguments answered in 10 minutes. I've seen Prophet Of God respond, I've seen Matt Dillahunty respond, so I thought I may as well get on in the action and give my own take on what is, frankly, an excellent demonstration of the power of uncritically accepting religious dogma and the effect it has on a person's critical thinking skills. The way the challenges to atheism are presented in this video is that the straw man atheist will present a challenge, and Redeemed Zoomer will answer that challenge both with spoken word and images and text on the screen, so if there is something I say in this audio format that doesn't make sense, it may because I'm referring to something on screen rather than what was spoken. If you're ready for a rapid fire sequence of bad apologetics that Frank Turek would be proud of, strap yourselves in and hit the intro!

This week on RfRx, we are joined by Matt Dillahunty, a well-known activist and lecturer on topics including skepticism, humanism, atheism, and critical thinking. Matt will be talking with us about his experiences examining his own beliefs, explaining how to critically evaluate claims, and answering your questions about religion, faith, and the supernatural. Bring your questions for Matt in this interactive show! Matt was a fundamentalist, evangelical Christian for 25 years and planned on becoming a minister until his studies forced him to abandon his supernatural beliefs. Since leaving his faith he has traveled the world to lecture and debate on skepticism, humanism, and atheism to audiences at conventions and churches. He's spent the past 20 years hosting live, call-in programs to teach critical thinking skills and challenge religious and supernatural claims and privilege. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/recovering-from-religion/message

In this episode, we examine a series of Sam's conversations centered around religion, atheism, and the power of belief. First, we hear the stories of three guests who have fled their respective oppressive religious organizations. We begin with Sarah Haider, founder of the advocacy group Ex-Muslims of North America, who details how her encounters with militant atheists catalyzed her journey to secularism. Then our narrator, Megan Phelps-Roper, walks us through her story of abandoning the Westboro Baptist Church. Finally, Yasmine Mohammed presents her harrowing account of escaping fundamentalist Islamism and Sam's role in inspiring her public advocacy work. We then tackle the concept of belief more broadly, diving into Sam's understanding of atheism and what sets it apart from the views of other atheist thinkers like Matt Dillahunty and Richard Dawkins. We also revisit an infamous conversation between Sam and Jordan Peterson, wherein they attempt to come to some universal definition of the word “truth.” The episode concludes with two Q&A portions from life events in which Sam addresses some real concerns about purpose and meaning in the absence of religion. About the Series Filmmaker Jay Shapiro has produced The Essential Sam Harris, a new series of audio documentaries exploring the major topics that Sam has focused on over the course of his career. Each episode weaves together original analysis, critical perspective, and novel thought experiments with some of the most compelling exchanges from the Making Sense archive. Whether you are new to a particular topic, or think you have your mind made up about it, we think you'll find this series fascinating.

Welcome back to the show! In today's episode of the Atheist Experience, Matt Dillahunty is joined by Jim Barrows!Mr. Warlights from AK starts off the show by accusing Matt of secretly believing in spirits because Matt is just a normal human like the rest of us, and regular humans all believe in spirits. You know, as opposed to all of the not regular humans who don't?Next is Isaiah from Korea who is calling to talk about the parental reaction to deconversion, or not sharing the religion of their parents, and why some parents react so harshly compared to others.Kevin from CA is convinced that a God exists because they encountered portal spirits who showed them a plane of existence that mirrors our own reality.JB from CO calls in to present problems they see with any reliance on naturalism regarding answering questions about our perceived reality.Next up is Jeremy from Fl who asks our hosts if a coincidence would ever be enough to convince our hosts that there is a god or supernatural power controlling the universe.Darius from CA claims to have an argument that will prove that no one really believes that a God exists. Care to explain how you managed to get into every person's head?Paul from PA doesn't understand why Atheists get to ask Theists for evidence supporting their beliefs, but Theists can't do the same for Atheists. Effectively, why don't Atheists have a burden of proof?Chris from Sweden proposes the Hitchens razor, “what can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence,” and attempts to nullify it with a weird example of Matt questioning his mother about who his father is.Phillip from PA asks how someone would be able to discern the universe of some cosmic being sending you a message, or just something fabricated by your own mind.
Welcome back to the show! In today's episode of the Atheist Experience, Matt Dillahunty is joined by Andrew Seidel!Dustin from TX is calling to ask Matt what his stance is on the claim that they “choose to believe” in a God. How can you choose to be convinced? You either are or you aren't.Next is Jaime from the audience who was called something unfortunate after stating they were an agnostic, and are curious if agnosticism really is just sitting on the fence.Thomas from KY is calling to ask how Christianity is attempting to weaponize the religious freedom outlined in the first amendment within US legislation.Pedro from Ireland has an argument for God that requires God to be undeniable and necessary. What a great, absolutely unhelpful definition.Next is Mark from AL who claims to have an answer to the question of divine hiddenness.Next is Seth from TX who asks for the legal standing on the more creative, rebellious signs being donated in response to the “In God We Trust” signage law.Peter from Canada claims to have irrefutable evidence. Apparently evidence = Gish gallop. This call feels as chaotic as the Mt. Saint Helens eruption.Patrick from NY believed in a God because they believe they have experienced answered prayers.Trent from OH is wondering if one of the driving forces behind many religions is death denial, or at least serves as an attempt to add meaning to life when there may not be one.
Welcome back to the show! In today's episode of the Atheist Experience, Matt Dillahunty is joined by Jmike!First up is Tyler from TX who is an Atheist who is calling to explain the better reason for why God condones slavery in the bible. But why tho?Next up is Aaron from IL who believes that Catholicism is absolutely factual and their God is the one true God. The caller is very adamant in telling us what they believe but is incapable of actually explaining why they believe.MacGruber from Canada is calling to present a presuppositional argument to demonstrate that God has revealed the truth of Revelations to all of us.Next is Erik from MI who experienced something they can't explain, but doesn't want to label as supernatural. The caller wants advice on how to go about determining the cause of said experience.Next up is Kevin from Canada who is a former Christian who has now transitioned to Daoism. The caller mentions that Daoists didn't have a problem with him when we were Christian, which begs the question, does Daoism care about the truth of one's beliefs?James from NM is struggling with family after the death of their brother. The caller is an Atheist but their immediate family is fundamentalist and is threatening the caller's well-being and assistance with alcoholism if the caller doesn't participate in their fundamentalist rituals.Kyle from TX recently discovered the subject of synesthesia and is curious if it has anything to do with certain individuals having the ability to see auras.
Welcome back to the show! In today's episode of the Atheist Experience, Matt Dillahunty is joined by Jim Barrows!First up is James from Canada who supposedly has scientific evidence that supports Jonah's ability to survive in a whale's mouth. Except it wasn't a whale's mouth, but the stomach of a fish.Our first audience question of the show asks what the host's opinion what the weirdest Christian denomination is.Next is Sean from UT who criticizes referencing the harm caused by Christianity throughout history because they don't believe those who carried out that harm truly understood the bible's teachings.Next is audience member James from TX who asks if the same criteria used to determine which books to include in the bible can be used to exclude certain books.Bob from VA thinks Atheists won't accept that God does all of the miraculous things the caller claims he can because they willingly don't understand.Roy from IL presents an argument for the exodus story and how this is evidence for biblical truth and the existence of a messiah.Next is Kevin from GA who believes Matt holds theists to a different burden of proof than he does himself.Kai from Israel asks how atheists can evaluate something as immoral without an objective moral authority, and if they can, why should anyone care or respect their subjective moral opinion?
Welcome back to the show! In today's episode of the Atheist Experience, Matt Dillahunty is joined by Kenneth Leonard!Our first caller today is Michael from MI who believes that mathematical imaginary numbers can prove the existence of well– their definition of God at least.Denver from VA wants advice on how to introduce skepticism to their very unskeptical girlfriend who believes in significant amounts of woo including astrology and alternative “natural” medicine. While the caller doesn't want to interfere with their right to do these medical procedures on their own body, they are concerned about the future if they happen to have a kid.Ralph from FL is calling to demonstrate the existence of a God but claims that you must accept it first then look for evidence. Alright then, the initial singularity that the big bang originated from was actually a hot dog, just accept it. I don't know what goes into modern hot dogs, maybe this one contained all of the matter in the universe, trust me.Tyler from MD asserts that because we can't know everything or have evidence for every claim, that faith is somehow a viable alternative.Khan from India is calling to make a case that Atheists have a faith-based position because they claim to know no gods exist. No, we don't.Eric from NY is calling to present an argument from complexity and modified watchmakers analogy, but with atoms and smartphones and beavers so it's cooler.
In today's episode of the Atheist Experience, Matt Dillahunty is joined by JMike!First up is John from CA who says that there are multiple pathways to reaching the truth about God's existence, and that a pathway available to one person might not be accessible to another.Next up is Dean from CA who believes that science doesn't require methodological naturalism, but does require philosophical naturalism. So scientists get to use unmeasurable supernatural phenomenon to create new theories? Seems legit.Questioning Theist from WA finds the host's arguements for God relatively convincing, but doesn't think their credible due to the caller's disagreements with the host's other positions.
