This week Sam and Daniel are joined by Thomas Westbrook, who is also known as Holy Koolaid. Thomas' YouTube channel was one of the first that I (Sam) deep-dived into when I began to question my Christian heritage. In this conversation, we talk to Thomas about his journey, channel, beliefs and goals. It's an honest conversation that really gets at the heart of why people can leave a faith-based religious system and hold onto awe and wonder at the world around them. To find/follow Holy Koolaid: Youtube Twitter Website

Do you believe in psychics, mediums, or prophets of god? How about the historicity of the bible? Today is a fantastic day to call in because friend of the show Thomas Westbrook will be joining us again today. Thomas' channel @Holy Koolaid is dedicated to debunking pseudoscience and researching biblical claims in a fast-paced informative way.Give us a call and tell us why you think we've got it wrong at 585-526-8774 or tiny.cc/callSG.You can check out Thomas' channel here: https://www.youtube.com/HolyKoolaid ___________________TIME STAMPS & CALL NOTES 00:00 - Intro - Who Is Thomas Westbrook of Holy Koolaid?03:30 - Does Capitalism Equal Morality? - Javier (he/him) - FL 29:40 - Time Doesn't Exist… Baba Booey! - “Giovanni” (he/him) - VA 49:33 - Holy Koolaid vs. Freya - Relic (he/him) - TX 1:18:50 - Hell Is Better Than Nothing? - Yosiah (he/him) - VA 03:30A libertarian calls in to argue about whether or not certain rights encourage things like freeloading. Thomas talks about the Veil of Ignorance and the technicalities of living in a society, while Eric waxes philosophical about what a moral society should be like. Do you agree? More importantly…. ROADS? 29:40Troll alert! “Giovanni” proposes that time does not actually exist! This is Thomas's cup of tea: he breaks down some scientific facts about the concept of time to debunk this caller's claims. If only this conversation was legitimate, and not going to end in a train wreck… 49:33We've talked with Relic a few times, and he is finally calling in to tell us what he believes and why. Spirits exist and manifest as various polytheistic gods, in his experience specifically Norse and Greco Roman pantheons. Eric sits back and lets Thomas react. For previous Relic calls, view them here: - Talking to Spirits: https://youtu.be/dzKA5W2_btc - Atheist Dogma: https://youtu.be/9Etj0Qg7oHE- The End of the World: https://youtu.be/iZEWAOJFoCU - “I Experienced the Afterlife”: https://youtu.be/0I3-qauGJU0 1:18:50What kept you going back to church after starting to deconvert?

Today we are hoping to talk to some fishers of men. Some good old salty dogs just waiting for Christ himself to start backseat driving flounder straight into their nets. Are you confused? So are we, but don't worry... we'll explain. Come tell us your fish stories at 585-526-8774 or tiny.cc/callSG.

Also, is Jesus Aquaman? We dive in here. If you want to see the hosts react to other cringeworthy takes, tweet them @SkepticShow with your candidate for next week! 11:30 This polytheist caller pushes Eric to explain why the Kalam cosmological argument is wrong. Is there a reason to dismiss it entirely or should we simply be suspending belief? The hosts break it down. 30:13Back after a long period of silence, Eric and Vi allow JRobin back on the show in the hopes that he has learned more. They are deeply disappointed when he jumps straight back into his scripts, but this time they aren't letting him get away so fast. While Eric embodies compassionate listening to model honest communication, Vi goes for the jugular. 1:05:59Hard determinism is just as absurd as some religious claims, says this deist caller. Eric admits that the idea that we don't have free will is scary, but that shouldn't be enough to keep us from exploring all options. Vi suggests claims feel absurd or strange when they have not been reinforced by our surrounding community, or seem to contradict “common sense.” 1:18:16 Apparently this deist caller has been banned from other call-in shows, but he's calling in today to explain why we *have* to have come from a God. Eric and Vi dive into the difference between asking “how” versus asking “why,” and whether defining things as God is useful at all. This is the start of what will hopefully be a longer conversation next week! ___________________Skeptic Generation is LIVE every Sunday at 11:30am-1:00pm CTCall on your phone: 585-LA-MURPH (585-526-8774) Call online: https://tiny.cc/callSG Love the show?

Interview with Thomas Westbrook the creator of the Youtube channel "Holy Koolaid". We discuss the evidence for Jesus, covid and Vaccination math.Investing Skeptically: How to take money out of your portfolio in retirement.

Eric is out of the state this week, which means Vi has invited on Skeptic Generation's very first guest host, Thomas Westbrook of @Holy Koolaid ! Join us on Sunday 8/8 at 11:30am CT to see who it is, and call 585-526-8774 or tiny.cc/callSG to talk with us about what you believe and why! 00:00 - Intro - Our First Guest Host on Skeptic Generation! 08:37 - Allison (she/they) - CAN - Should Everyone Get A Vaccine? 19:55 - Yousif (he/him) - IRAQ - Is the Cosmological Argument Convincing? 40:15 - Eric (he/him) - WV - Why Do Theists Use Philosophy to Prove God? 58:30 - Tzelly (she/they) - WA - Gods Exist and They Communicate With Me! 1:18:11 - Robin (he/him) - DC - The Final Showdown AKA He's Blocked Now 1:36:05 - Outro - Dare To Do Something, But Don't Drink The Thing… 08:37 Our guest host, Thomas Westbrook of Holy Koolaid, has done videos on the subject of vaccine efficacy and importance. Allison calls in to talk about her own experience trying to get a vaccine, and her concerns around pre-existing health conditions. Thomas gives some valuable statistics, while Vi points out that the goal is to vaccinate everyone who *can* be, to protect those for whom it might be dangerous or less effective. 19:55Yousif calls in from Iraq to discuss whether the cosmological argument is an effective one. He doesn't think so, and neither do the hosts. Vi suggests it presents a false dichotomy and is largely based on semantics, while Thomas goes in for the scientific angle to dismantle the idea that an intelligent First Cause was needed to create the universe. 40:15 Why do theists use philosophical arguments to try and prove god? Thomas suspects it's because they don't have any better arguments in areas like science or history. Our caller asks why we even bother engaging with philosophy, if science or history are better options. Vi points out the benefits of engaging with honest interlocutors and calling out dishonest ones. 58:30 Tzelly is a pagan who has a background in both Judaism and Christianity. She suggests that there are multiple gods who exist as manifestations of people groups' energies. She also claims to be in communication with them via subconscious thoughts and dreams. Vi and Thomas ask clarifying questions to try and verify these claims. 1:18:11 In a desperate last attempt at gaining the upper hand, Robin calls back to demand the hosts explain their “causal justification” absent an ultimate God. Both Thomas and Vi take stabs at understanding what this means, but Vi finally decides that enough is enough. This one gets heated, so get ready with the volume control. ________ Skeptic Generation is LIVE every Sunday at 11:30am-1:00pm CTCall on your phone: 585-LA-MURPH (585-526-8774) Call online: https://tiny.cc/callSG Love the show?

Welcome back to the cohost chair Thomas, we are glad you could join us today. Also, Happy Birthday Thomas!Let’s get to calls! Barry from the UK would like to talk about how to effectively promote skepticism and critical thinking in US schools. We do have an uphill battle here, due to how ingrained religiosity is here, but there are baby steps we can take to get there.Gemma in the UK is up next, they are wondering about dealing with family members who don’t accept nor respect their coming out as trans as well as navigating their beliefs as a trans person. Love and hugs to you Gemma, we are here as your community if and when you need us. You are not alone.Kathy in Pennsylvania is calling about the rise of psychics and religious belief during the pandemic. She is struggling with losing religion, what is true, and her beliefs.Sam in Texas is asking the hosts to view the Bible in a different light. Going on to ask about what evidence can positively prove the God of the Bible. Sam, can you listen for a single God forsaken second? Have a conversation with Eric and Thomas, don’t preach at them. Ugh. Worst. Caller. Ever.Kale Chip in Kentucky is wondering about attending a memorial service/altar call for a friend and being surrounded by the religious. They took her memory hostage by saying “you’ll never see your friend again unless you repent.” That’s frustrating, Kale Chip. I’m sorry that you are having to go through that, especially now. Sean in Ohio is having trouble with wrapping his head around how libertarian free will isn’t a thing. The definition here being free will in the absence of or not determined by outside factors. Also known as random. He had a followup question, it was about philosophy wondering if it is just a bunch of navel gazing noise. This caller gets me.That’s our show for this week, please continue to be safe in your area, get vaccinated if you can, and wear your mask. The world is better with you in it. Happy Birthday Thomas!

Greetings Heathens! It’s another Sunday, time for more talking with heathens. In today’s episode of Talk Heathen, Eric Murphy is joined by The Holiest of Koolaids, Thomas Westbrook. Let’s get to calls! Itto from Arkansas would like to talk about how suffering is not good evidence for one’s faith or evidence for a god. Yep, we agree! Christian in Wisconsin is up next, he would like to talk about Thomas’ video about the perception from Theists that Atheism will be the downfall of nations and society. Thomas really gets into summarizing his research and how interesting it is. Go check it out!Chris in California, is wondering about how to label himself and claims he is an agnostic theist. Relies upon his “gut” feelings to rationalize a God belief and is also claiming he is convinced that a God exists.Kevin in New York, is wondering about prophecy and the book of Enoch. Luckily Thomas loves this sort of conversation and jumps right in. Eric finally asks, are there physical giants in the world today and were they around historically. Kevin keeps talking about and pointing to the Bible to justify his faulty claims. Except we don’t accept the Bible as an authority for this claim though. This is a really interesting conversation, it gets a little heated.Sven in Washington would like to talk about how he is also an agnostic theist and how morality is defined from a humanist perspective. Dayana in Lebanon is curious about experiences she has had that seemed supernatural. How can we explain these occurrences? Thomas talks about science and how these minor hallucinations can happen because of our flawed biology. Interesting!Kelly in California would like to talk about logic as a construct. Here we go… Eric loves this sort of conversation and really excels at talking about it. Check it out if you’re interested in a more philosophical talk about the laws of logic. That’s our show for this week, please continue to be safe in your area, wear your mask. The world is better with you in it. See you next week!

He’s the creator of dozens of fact-packed Holy Kool Aid videos on Youtube with 112,000 subscribers and counting. Thomas Westbrook decided to give it a go being a full-time content creator and he’s succeeded wildly. Now he’s back after a trip to Israel and from that has taken a dive into Biblical history, Old Testament style. I don’t mean he’s genociding people and getting lost for 40 years. He’s studying the… oh, never mind. We talked about his Nothing Fails Like Bible History series, how hard it is to die from hail, and content creation in the age of social distancing.   Holy Kool Aid links   https://holykoolaid.com/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzvoUDoDu-cKIb11rg4ODDQ https://twitter.com/holykoolaid https://faithlessforum.com/   Live Read   Worst Year Ever’s Reasonable Guide to Prepper(ism)   https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-worst-year-ever-49377032/episode/the-reasonable-persons-guide-to-prepping-59450250/   Support me on Patreon:  http://www.patreon.com/zachrilege Itunes https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/zachrilege-cast/id996785602?mt=2 Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/zachrilege

Welcome back to the show Thomas, did you bring tacos?!Let’s get to calls.The first caller is Brian from Oregon. The answer is 42. Just kidding, Brian brings up a couple scenarios of how to use hypnosis when talking with believers and experiences. Listen in to hear Thomas and Vi talk through this call.Next up, Moldred from New York would like to talk about how there are differences between religion (which is a top down hierarchy) and spirituality (which is a bottom up). Listen in to hear Vi and Thomas break this down.The following caller named Owen from Oregon is concerned about how there is a lot of biased evidence provided by the Catholic church and is making him wondering what is true. Vi and Thomas have a great conversation about this.The next caller in the queue is Ameet from New York wanting to discuss an event that occurred during the holidays with his parents. His parents are concerned with his marriage prospects due to his atheism. Is it wrong to be loud about one’s atheism? NO it’s not wrong! Ameet, it does get better, keep staying true to yourself.Next up is a returning caller, Josh in Texas would like to know if there were theists whose views we came to respect. Absolutely, as long as there is honesty going both ways, there can be common ground reached. Afterwards we have Brandon from Arizona. He has justification for Hell. Claims every single sin is punishable by eternal torture and torment in Hell and Jesus died for our sins to save us from Hell. But why though? Yeah, let’s eternally punish people for finite crimes, that sounds fair. /sWe finally are able to talk to Patricia from New York, she is concerned about her brother raising children within a religious faith and is wondering how she can help lessen the chance of indoctrination. Vi provides the best answer and a quote: “The best way to bridge this gap is to have them learn about all the religions.” — Darrel Ray.Our last caller of the day is Nick in Wisconsin. Discussing how he disagrees with Vi not bowing their head during holiday dinner prayers. He says he would have handled it differently, and sees it as being slightly disrespectful to their family. It truly comes down to a point of respect (like in a place of worship) but in a family home, it’s different and you should be allowed to be yourself.
