FFRF Communications Director Amit Pal and FFRF Multimedia Producer Leo Costello break down the latest state-church headlines, including troubling rhetoric at the National Gathering for Prayer and Repentance led by House Speaker Mike Johnson. Then, historian Chris Cameron explores the freethinkers of color who helped build a powerful tradition of Black secularism in America.
On The Shaun Thompson Show, Jeff Dornik warns that Canada is expanding euthanasia to allow parents to authorize the killing of infants and toddlers if they deem them to be suffering, arguing that this is not compassion but the devaluation of human life in a secular society that has rejected God as the source of inherent rights. Jeff Dornik explains that once a nation abandons the belief that human beings are created in the image of God, it inevitably treats people as disposable, and he connects this moral collapse to the broader alliance between Marxism, radical Islam, and the erosion of individual liberty in America.Follow Jeff Dornik on Pickax - https://pickax.com/jeffdornikTune into The Jeff Dornik Show LIVE daily at 1pm ET on Rumble.

Hollywood has a new cash cow, and his name is Jesus. As studios scramble for post-COVID relevance, they've traded superheroes for the "chosen" ones, grossing hundreds of millions by turning ancient dogmas into bingeable blockbusters. We're dissecting the "happy gauze" applied to biblical atrocities and the rise of masculine religion vs. feminine spirituality on screen. From Avatar's blue-tinted woo to the thirst for religious sequels, it's clear the industry cares less about salvation than the bottom line. It turns out even the Son of God needs a high-budget filter to be marketable.News Source:The Year Faith-Based Films Finally Grew Up: The Top 10 Movies of 2025By Rapt Interviews for RaptJanuary 10, 2026

Is the spiritual realm real—or has it been misunderstood, misdefined, or deliberately obscured? In this episode of Nephilim Death Squad, we sit down with Ed Mabrie (Faith By Reason) to confront one of the most controversial debates in modern Christian theology: the nature of the spiritual realm, fallen angels, Genesis 6, and the blurred line between the physical and the unseen.We examine whether angels are purely physical beings, why biblical prophets described biblically accurate angels, and how ancient Hebrew cosmology clashes with modern materialist interpretations. The conversation dives deep into Genesis 6, the Watchers, Nephilim, consciousness, dimensions, and why bad doctrine can distort the character of God Himself.This episode also explores the growing tension between UFO disclosure narratives and biblical theology, asking whether modern explanations are redefining the supernatural to remove God from the equation.If you're interested in spiritual warfare, biblical cosmology, angels and demons, the Book of Enoch, or the reality of the unseen world, this is a must-watch.Topics Covered:Is the spiritual realm real or misunderstood?Biblically accurate angels vs symbolic interpretationsGenesis 6, the Watchers, and the NephilimAngels, dimensions, and consciousnessWhy lust is a flawed explanation for the fall of the WatchersPhysical vs spiritual reality in biblical cosmologyUFO disclosure and its overlap with theologyWhy doctrine matters—and how bad doctrine distorts God's natureCan angels eat, mate, or exist physically?Spiritual warfare and unseen authority structuresEd Mabrie – Faith By ReasonWebsite: https://faithbyreason.netPatreon: https://patreon.com/faithbyreasonYouTube: Faith By ReasonInstagram: @faithbyreasonPatreon (Watch Live episodes, early & ad free): https://www.patreon.com/NephilimDeathSquadWebsite & Merch: https://nephilimdeathsquad.comListen/Watch:Audio Podcast: nephilimdeathsquad.carrd.co/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@NephilimDeathSquadX: https://twitter.com/NephilimDSquadInstagram: https://instagram.com/nephilimdeathsquadFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/share/1AscxBNoH4/ Contact: chroniclesnds@gmail.com TopLobsta:X: https://twitter.com/TopLobstaInstagram: https://instagram.com/TopLobstaMerch: https://TopLobsta.comRaven:X: https://twitter.com/DavidLCorboInstagram: https://instagram.com/ravenofndsMatt Hepner – The Standard Coffee:Instagram: @thestandardclclWebsite: https://www.thestandardclcl.com/ Sponsors/Affiliates:Weld Protein Energy Drink: Drink WeldLittle Palm Coconut Water: Little PalmMilk & Honey Coffee co: Milk & HoneyEllas Popcorn: ellaspopcorn.comRife Tech – https://realsrifetechnology.com/ (Code: NEPHILIM for 10% off)Purge Store – https://purgestore.com/ (Code: NEPHILIM for 10% off)Credits:Intro Animation: @jslashr on XMusic: @Dallas_spitfire on X | https://gmbpod.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/nephilim-death-squad-biblical-conspiracy--6389018/support.☠️ Nephilim Death Squad — New episodes 5x/week.Join our Patreon for early access, bonus shows & the private Telegram hive.Subscribe on YouTube & Rumble, follow @NephilimDSquad on X/Instagram, grab merch at toplobsta.com.

Pope Leo XIV is suddenly very concerned that the world is too violent, which is rich coming from the leader of history's wealthiest criminal organization. While he decries the erosion of human life, it's mostly just a Trojan horse to smuggle in anti-choice dogma and play to "end times" fantasies. We're dissecting the selective outrage that ignores secular suffering while demanding moral authority the Vatican forfeited centuries ago. If the Church actually cared about peace, they'd trade their gold chalices for boots on the ground instead of just offering more holy lip service.News Source:Pope warns diplomats of rising global violence and erosion of human lifeBy USCCB Staff for USCCBJanuary 12, 2026

As religion bleeds followers, it's looking for a digital transfusion from the high-tech elite. We're dissecting the rise of techno-cults, the Vatican's desperate attempt to regulate AI with its Antiqua et Nova policy, and why tech bros like Peter Thiel are now becoming guest speakers at megachurch revivals. It turns out that when you can't get answers from a burning bush, a large language model that tells you exactly what you want to hear is the next best thing. Silicon Valley is building the new gods of a digital age where faith and profit finally merge.News Source:Tech revival after Peter Thiel's Antichrist talks: There's hope and warinessBy Religion News ServiceJanuary 2, 2026
In this episode of Uncommon Sense, I'm calling out a problem no one wants to confront: the normalization of partying, drinking, and casual sex especially among so-called “conservative influencers.”You cannot claim to defend Western Civilization while publicly celebrating the very behaviors that destroyed past civilizations. Conservatism without morality is just aesthetic rebellion.We don't need more clout, cocktails, or compromised values. We need a return to godliness, self-discipline, and moral responsibility because the future generations watching us will inherit whatever standard we tolerate today.If we want to save the West, we have to get serious about being truly Christian again.--https://www.bible.com/
In today's episode of Truth Wanted, Objectively Dan and Deconstruction Deacon wrestle with the concept of free will before uncovering their own limitations of free will when it comes to deciding what species to consume over another. Salvatore in LA calls to continue a conversation had with the co-host, and defines free will as the ability for a moral agent to choose. What are your thoughts around the ability not to choose? The caller explains that free will is a mechanism used to explain the problem of evil. Deacon uses his Street Epistemology skills to ask the caller a series of thought provoking questions. What does the process of choice look like in the brain? What factors in life make a person more likely to choose one option over another? In what sense is "will" free? Our choices can't be truly free if we don't understand all the conscious and unconscious processes. How is it free will when we are coerced?Chase, calling from the USA, wants to talk about speciesism, discrimination against other beings for not being human. If this is a form of harm reduction, what happens when one species is starving and another is abundantly available for food? If this is maximizing well being, how does this play out when one species consumes another due to dietary and nutritional needs? What happens when it is in the best interest of a spider to continue to live in a house that is occupied by someone who is terrified by spiders? Why do we put some animals in the food category such as pigs, and not other animals like dogs? Thank you for joining us this week! Our back up host, Scott Dickie joins us to close out the show and remind us of the question of the week: What is the worst example of god's unconditional love?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/truth-wanted--3195473/support.

Dennis Prager Master Class Series. Episode 1: Consequences of Secularism Episode 1: Consequences of Secularism, Part I. Master's Program. PragerU G.K. Chesterton said, "When people stop believing in god, they don't believe in nothing. They believe in anything.” Dennis Prager breaks down (debunks) so-called conventional wisdom that secularism is better than a religious-based society. Pointing to historical and contemporary real-world examples, Prager explores just how detrimental the absence of God in western society has directly contributed to the existential death of Western society.

Send us a textIs Canada on the verge of banning public prayer? A Catholic priest explains what's at stake for religious freedom, faith, and culture.As Quebec moves toward legislation restricting public prayer, Catholics are asking a serious question: can prayer be pushed out of public life?A proposed bill in Quebec would ban public prayer in streets, parks, and other public spaces. In this in-depth interview, Fr. Cristino offers a Catholic response to the growing push for radical secularism—explaining why this issue goes far beyond one province and why it matters for all Canadians.This conversation explores the religious freedom implications of banning public prayer and asks whether secularism has quietly become a replacement religion in modern society. Drawing on Catholic teaching, philosophy, and the history of Quebec, Fr. Cristino explains why faith cannot be confined to private spaces without serious consequences.KEY QUESTIONS ADDRESSED:– Is banning public prayer a violation of human rights and the Charter of Rights and Freedoms?– Can a government decide where and when prayer is allowed?– Does forcing religion into private spaces increase division and radicalization?– Why has Quebec moved from deep Catholic roots to hostility toward public faith?– What should faithful Catholics do when unjust laws are proposed?This video is essential viewing for anyone concerned about Catholic teaching on prayer, religious liberty in Canada, and the future of faith in public life.Support the showSupport this show and get all future episodes by email atwww.kenandjanelle.com

Art-Making as Spiritual Practice: Rituals of Embodied Understanding (Bloomsbury Academic Press, 2025), edited by Professor David Newheiser, is a new collection asks if it's possible to consider art-making as a spiritual practice independent of explicit religious belief or content. Where earlier research has focused on the religious significance of secular artworks, this innovative volume turns its attention to the role of the artist, and to specific examples of art practices, putting them into conversation with ritual practices. By creating a web of connections that emerge across multiple disciplines and practices, a team of scholars and artists shed new light on the way art-making and ritual embody non-discursive forms of understanding. Drawing on the work of scholars who argue that ritual practice is central to religious identities, they use close analysis of specific examples to address philosophical issues about the nature of knowledge and spirituality and the relationship between them. Art-Making as Spiritual Practice is a rich and in-depth examination of the possibility that art has spiritual meanings that are endemic to the practice of art-making itself, establishing a new paradigm that changes the conversation surrounding the spiritual, if not religious, significance of art. Professor David Newheiser is a returning champion on New Books in Secularism—he joined us in 2020 to talk about his book Hope in a Secular Age: Deconstruction, Negative Theology, and the Future of Faith (Cambridge University Press, 2020) and in 2023 he told us about his edited collection, The Varieties of Atheism (University of Chicago Press, 2022). He is Associate Professor of Religion at Florida State University, with research that explores the role of religious traditions in debates over ethics, politics, and culture. He received a PhD in Religion from the University of Chicago and an MPhil in early Christian thought from Oxford. He is also co-editor of the Journal for the Academic Study of Religion. Art-Making as Spiritual Practice: Rituals of Embodied Understanding is an open source publication, available free from Bloomsbury Academic Press, here. … Carrie Lynn Evans is a PhD candidate at Université Laval in Quebec City. carrie-lynn.evans@lit.ulaval.ca @carrielynnland.bsky.social Learn more about your ad choices.

America has a religious landscape unlike any other country on earth. But it is rapidly changing. In this episode, we interview Ryan Burge, a leading demographer on religious trends in America. We discuss the present state and future of evangelicalism. And we explore the growth and status of other religious groups such as Jews, Muslims, Latter-day Saints, Black Protestants, Secularism, and more. Finally, we ask Dr. Burge for his insights on how Evangelicals can best pass on their faith to the next generation. Ryan's latest book is The American Religious Landscape: Facts, Trends, and the Future.==========Think Biblically: Conversations on Faith and Culture is a podcast from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University, which offers degrees both online and on campus in Southern California.

The ancient human instinct for tribalism, initially a tool for cooperative survival, has been twisted into a modern social weapon amplified by instant media. We analyze how the evolutionary drive for in-group safety feeds destructive political polarization, transforming communal bonding into fierce "us vs. them" conflicts. This dynamic allows manipulative leaders to exploit fear, hoard resources, and use identity—including religion—as a relentless social cudgel in the ongoing culture war.News Source:

Theologian and church planter Dom Ruso offers lessons from church planting in Montreal, one of the most secular environments in North America, and how to reach a very difficult culture. He talks about the lack of theological training churches are facing, why we're probably not ready for real revival, and how to reach people most people think are unreachable.
A student's ridiculous claim of religious discrimination after flunking a mandatory psychology assignment in Oklahoma reveals the cynical conservative playbook: leveraging academic failure into highly profitable Christian victimhood, turning zeroes into thousands in donor cash. This fabricated outrage, aggressively championed by her conservative "stage mom" and state politicians, targets trans educators and undermines university standards across the nation. We break down how the modern culture war weaponizes religious identity, demonstrating that for the far right, fundamentalist belief is simply a lucrative political tool used only to attack perceived enemies. This brazen spectacle proves that performative hypocrisy is the new currency of the Christian nationalist movement.News Source:

High-control religious groups exploit gendered social programming, effectively priming women for coercive control via enforced submission, isolation, and lack of agency. This critical discussion draws sick parallels between traditional feminine roles and cult dynamics, noting how manufactured obedience prevents critical thinking and makes escaping high-control environments virtually impossible. We expose the insidious tactics like "love bombing" and false empowerment that strip genuine agency and trap people in cycles of destructive dogma.News Source:
In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop sits down with Javier Villar for a wide-ranging conversation on Argentina, Spain's political drift, fiat money, the psychology of crowds, Dr. Hawkins' levels of consciousness, the role of elites and intelligence agencies, spiritual warfare, and whether modern technology accelerates human freedom or deepens control. Javier speaks candidly about symbolism, the erosion of sovereignty, the pandemic as a global turning point, and how spiritual frameworks help make sense of political theater.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart and Javier compare Argentina and Spain, touching on cultural similarity, Argentinization, socialism, and the slow collapse of fiat systems.05:00 They explore Brave New World conditioning, narrative control, traditional Catholics, and the psychology of obedience in the pandemic.10:00 Discussion shifts to Milei, political theater, BlackRock, Vanguard, mega-corporations, and the illusion of national sovereignty under a single world system.15:00 Stewart and Javier examine China, communism, spiritual structures, karmic cycles, Kali Yuga, and the idea of governments at war with their own people.20:00 They move into Revelations, Hawkins, calibrations, conspiracy labels, satanic vs luciferic energy, and elites using prophecy as a script.25:00 Conversation deepens into ego vs Satan, entrapment networks, Epstein Island, Crowley, Masonic symbolism, and spiritual corruption.30:00 They question secularism, the state as religion, technology, AI, surveillance, freedom of currency, and the creative potential suppressed by government.35:00 Ending with Bitcoin, stablecoins, network-state ideas, U.S. power, Argentina's contradictions, and whether optimism is still warranted.Key InsightsArgentina and Spain mirror each other's decline. Javier argues that despite surface differences, both countries share cultural instincts that make them vulnerable to the same political traps—particularly the expansion of the welfare state, the erosion of sovereignty, and what he calls the “Argentinization” of Spain. This framing turns the episode into a study of how nations repeat each other's mistakes.Fiat systems create a controlled collapse rather than a dramatic one. Instead of Weimar-style hyperinflation, Javier claims modern monetary structures are engineered to “boil the frog,” preserving the illusion of stability while deepening dependency on the state. This slow-motion decline is portrayed as intentional rather than accidental.Political leaders are actors within a single global architecture of power. Whether discussing Milei, Trump, or European politics, Javier maintains that governments answer to mega-corporations and intelligence networks, not citizens. National politics, in this view, is theater masking a unified global managerial order.Pandemic behavior revealed mass submission to narrative control. Stewart and Javier revisit 2020 as a psychological milestone, arguing that obedience to lockdowns and mandates exposed a widespread inability to question authority. For Javier, this moment clarified who can perceive truth and who collapses under social pressure.Hawkins' map of consciousness shapes their interpretation of good and evil. They use the 200 threshold to distinguish animal from angelic behavior, exploring whether ego itself is the “Satanic” force. Javier suggests Hawkins avoided explicit talk of Satan because most people cannot face metaphysical truth without defensiveness.Elites rely on symbolic power, secrecy, and coercion. References to Epstein Island, Masonic symbolism, and intelligence-agency entrapment support Javier's view that modern control systems operate through sexual blackmail, ritual imagery, and hidden hierarchies rather than democratic mechanisms.Technology's promise is strangled by state power. While Stewart sees potential in AI, crypto, and network-state ideas, Javier insists innovation is meaningless without freedom of currency, association, and exchange. Technology is neutral, he argues, but becomes a tool of surveillance and control when monopolized by governments.
The Catholic Church employs a priest/DJ who uses electronic music and rave culture to revitalize their dwindling congregation, with the Pope's explicit blessing. This "spiritual innovation," endorsed by Pope Leo to "share your faith", is scrutinized to determine if it is a genuine movement founded on "universal love" or a desperate attempt by the Vatican to put "butts in seats". The cynical view holds that this marketing strategy is merely a distraction from the Church's history of atrocities and a necessary concession to remain financially relevant as global society moves toward secularism.News Source:[Article Title not provided]By [Author not provided] for [Outlet name not provided][Date not provided]
We examine the controversy surrounding Australian Senator Pauline Hanson's repeated political stunt of wearing a burqa in the Senate to advocate for its ban, arguing it poses security risks and contradicts Australia's values of openness and equality,. The discussion questions the authenticity of this move, considering whether it is a genuine fight for women's rights or a **targeted political tactic aimed at Islamic people and immigrants**,. Speakers suggest the act highlights the ongoing struggle against Christian nationalism found within conservative political movements in Australia and elsewhere,. The debate weighs Senator Hanson's own freedom of political expression against the nature of the burqa, which some argue is a forced cultural item that represses women,. Ultimately, the segment explores the tension between religious expression, inherent cultural repression, and political maneuvering designed to target specific marginalized groups,.News Source:get her out-aussie senator's burqa protest causes meltdownBy [Author not provided] for Daily Wire and YouTube[Date not provided]
We dive into the harrowing reality of femicide and gender-based violence, questioning the role of patriarchal societies and religious dogma in upholding the subjugation and objectification of women. We examine how Abrahamic religions maintain ancient customs that often treat women as property, noting this degradation has existed for thousands of years. The discussion analyzes the ethical flaws in systems that place restrictions on women based on how men behave (a classic case of victim blaming). Finally, we explore whether legislative changes—such as Italy defining femicide—truly address the core cultural problem of pervasive gender oppression.News Source:Italy Implements Femicide Law and UN Report on Global Violence Against WomenBy [Author not provided] for CNN and YouTube[Date not provided]
