WHAT IS THE ATHEIST EXPERIENCE?
The Atheist Experience is a weekly call-in television show in Austin, Texas geared at a non-atheist audience. The Atheist Experience is produced by the Atheist Community of Austin.
The Atheist Community of Austin is organized as a nonprofit educational corporation to develop and support the atheist community, to provide opportunities for socializing and friendship, to promote secular viewpoints, to encourage positive atheist culture, to defend the first amendment principle of state-church separation, to oppose discrimination against atheists and to work with other organizations in pursuit of common goals.
We define atheism as the lack of belief in gods. This definition also encompasses what most people call agnosticism.

"If you can't think for yourself no wonder you believe in a god" That's gold right there!
As a young man of 13 years I watched my grandfather who was a catholic who attended church regularly throughout his life lie on his deathbed in absolute fear, convinced that he was going to hell. He was a good man who did not deserve to go through that suffering in his last days. We must, as Matt says here, let go of these religious constructs.

@Doctor Powers . You’re right, I can’t answer the questions you ask about evolution etc. however why don’t you give me in fine detail, an explanation of how to build a nuclear submarine? Why do you assume that we are all trained biologists? We simply do not believe in a god. End of story. People have spent all their working lives studying the questions you asked. No doubt you will say you’ve read their findings. However that’s bullshit. You are so engrossed in in your fantasy tale that you wouldn’t let anything get in its way. At best you will have given a quick glance to evolutionary explanations. Even if you did study their findings in detail, you still wouldn’t believe them because you’re mind has been poisoned. So give up on your moist rock garbage because you’re asking the wrong people. If you ever asked me about it in the future, I will say the same thing I’ve said here. Tell me how to build a nuclear submarine. Even if you could that would mean you are trained in such a field, which still doesn’t mean that we necessarily have expertise in science. So for you to say that you have destroyed atheists over and over is so wrong and so absolutely childish given what I’ve been talking about above. That’s the same as asking us for every little detail about the construction of a fridge. Most of us are not refrigeration mechanics, so why ask us? Let’s see if you’ve got the guts to ask you a question to the real people. I’m sure you’ll tell us you have, but as usual you will be lying. You haven’t destroyed any atheists, and you never will.
Nothing twists a person's mind up like religion.

My existence can't wrap around a God. Makes no sense
Think of owning a dog. Dogs are a great example because they can learn commands, are empathetic, and display that they know right from wrong behavior. If a dog chewed up your couch and displayed behavior showing he knew he was guilty, would you put him in the basement, beat him constantly, starve him, and do this daily forever? I don't think so. Most people think of their pets as part of the family and would do almost anything to keep them safe, happy and healthy. Yet a God who supposedly made us and loves us would do this as a matter of everyday events for things that are inconsequential to him, you or the world at large.

As a society we can work together to have objective measures of subjective things.

Ask a Christian to give you three examples of how their belief in God has made them more moral than your average non-believer and they usually can't. What's worse is that no matter what example they try to give of their God given morality, it is breached by God himself somewhere in the Bible.

I love how theists call me immoral for being atheist, but I'm living my life the exact way as most of them, just living my life and minding my own business and not hurting anyone. How does that make me immoral? Just because I don't believe in the same thing as them. That's like saying you're immoral because you like jazz and I like pop so I'm moral and you're not.
One of the things I admire about religious folks is that they have the balls to defend a whole bunch of unsupported assertions with yet another bunch of unsupported assertions and somehow believe that this makes for a strong case.
9:05 - WHY DO BELIEVERS bother using analogies when the bible CLEARLY spells out god's morality??? They really struggle with that truth.

Hard as this is to separate, can we pretend just for one moment that there is no bible and no god? So to the believers I say this. If you read a self help book by an author who genuinely believed he had a good explanation on how you should live your life, and he stated that you should follow all the same kind of things that the bible says, what would you say? If you have even an ounce of honesty, you would reject all of those shocking teachings if they came from anyone outside of the bible. Yet you have been so hypnotised as to accept that a god exists who would tell you to do all those highly immoral things.

He told Richard that even if religion was proven wrong beyond any argument, he would still be a believer. Dawkins said something like, “How can we deal with that sort of lack of intelligence?”
Matts 6 atheist sins needs to be used more and promoted. 1:Credulity, gulibility. 2:Voluntery wilful ignorance. 3:Letting fear prevent you from understanding reality. 4:Limiting the rights and freedoms of others in order to make them abide by your standards. 5:Sacrificing the mental emotional and physical wellbeing of a child in deference to your religion. 6:Wasting the one and only life your know your going to have worrying and working for an afterlife someone told you might be there.

Even if there was a god,I still wouldn’t bow to him, he couldn’t face me because of his shame!
If you want me to believe in something, you have to make a convincing argument within 30 seconds. Johns first 30 seconds involved me being whisked away to a magic land, getting judged by an eternal being and that there is no-immoral act in murdering somebody. This is what he said within the first 30 seconds. How in the name of christ am i supposed to Believe that? Imagine pitching this concept to an alien who has never heard of god before. That's how you should approach all things in life. He sounds bonkers.
I consider this the birth of Matt Dillahunty as we know him. This clip contains everything you need - you can basically skip every other AXP video.

Bam!!! Matt is on fire!
I just realised that the Christian god being schizophrenic would explain a lot of the inconsistencies in the bible like the sacrificing of himself to himself through a loophole in the laws he created to forgive us for being the way he made us. Being jesus and god while communicating with one another is something that doesn't seem like something a being with one personality could do in a sane fashion, neither is the holy trinity. After all no sane person would ever claim to be perfect.
Is that what getting you ass handed back to you in a silver platter looks like? Lol. That’s was so gratifying to see. 🤣🤣
This is the really sad thing about the impact of religion. I know it doesn't apply to everyone but it gets people so enamored with this idea of unquestionable obedience that they become completely devoid of critical thinking and independence. It's so fucking sad.

44 “‘Your male and female slaves are to come from the nations around you; from them you may buy slaves. 45 You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their clans born in your country, and they will become your property. 46 You can bequeath them to your children as inherited property and can make them slaves for life, but you must not rule over your fellow Israelites ruthlessly.
God is the ultimate scapegoat. Don't to religions, kids, not even once.
This video was on 666 views when I had started watching it.
My left ear loves this clip.
I hope I'm never so vile, evil and disgusting that I WOULD conform to their pretend god character's moral standards.
How is it free will when their god will torment you for eternity
We all have will. Why complicate the issue?
Why do so many of these kinds of callers sound like Lenny from "Of Mice and Men"?
So wait, there are multiple"moral concepts"?! So murder is only morally wrong in certain moral constructions?...YA FOOL! 🤦🏾♂️🤣
Matt can go ahead and claim he's more moral than something he doesn't believe in, but the most morally good person in existence doesn't go through this life without feeling like they want to live a little dangerously and do things that don't follow a strict rule of moral behavior.
This was great👏👍
Trying to call god "moral" involves a lot of tap-dancing.

John got destroyed!! Painful to listening to this dude
Great video
John: “What I think doesn’t matter.” Then why are you calling the show.🤡
Wait if i don't accept Jebus as my Lord and Savior God will send me to hell is that not extortion
it's not in god's character to kill satan but he's ok with killing kids and almost every human on earth, and to slave people. Makes sense
You can tell this is the Matt from 2008 and not 2011. The Matt from today would have cut him off a lot sooner and and used a bunch of choice words on him. If any one wonders why the Matt of today is easy to anger just go back 11 years or more and see that he is putting up with the same old christian bullshit week after week. It would be enough to drive any sane person crazy.
HELL YEA MATT!!!
John must be Irish coz he tap dances around so much he must have a place in the cast of Riverdance.
I started to read the Bible in search of the Word of God only to find stories about Giants and people living hundreds of years and things that only happen in the movies...... Adults are like kids that never got told Santa and the Tooth fairy don't really exist.... lol
