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 sin, as I have been told, breaks the laws of the gods, then as an atheist I cannot break them. Atheists cannot be sinners, sinners are people who believe in that particular god and the laws they believe in. These "laws" only apply to those who live in the country/religion/god governed by these laws.
I live in the UK and I can honestly say I have not met any of my countrymen spew out this kind of crap ! Yes, we have Christians of various shapes and taste but you just don't get this weird stuff.

Do not be so harsh - he does not know that this is nonsense. In his bubble that alll makes total sense, and after this onslaught of reality he will flee back into his bubble and forget all this. These people have been conditioned to not perceive certain things. When you have this strategy to set out your perception, you can live a happy and easy life in peace. Just as people here in Germany learned not to perceive certain things, to not look in certain directions, where jewish shops were taken over by christians and jewish families moved away or disappeared suddenly. Great effort was made by the regime to maintain normality, to keep people distracted. You could live a normal, harmless life, never seeing anything bad. They maintained that largely even throughout the war. Moves like "Die Feurzangenbowle"; "Münchhausen", "Große Freiheit Nr. 7" were produced far into the war, and are totally unpolitical, absolutely harmless, you can watch them with fun and do not need to have a bad conscience. That is the application of the same principle as that what christianity does.

John has ZERO own imagination. He believes what he is told is The Truth by the self-proclaimed mouthpieces of God on earth. He has no choice, he was persuaded that he will go to hell when he doubts anything, and he believes the word of God (spread through the mouthpieces) is perfect and true and so cannot be changed. He is not allowed to ponder over it, and was told that God's wisdom is beyond the human understanding. So it makes no sense to think about the teachings and think that you found flaws. Per definition there are none, you are just too dumb to know. The true wisdom is to understand you do not have to understand, you are just right like the Bible is right. And never doubt that. Then you can look down upon all others that say "That is full of blatantly obvious contradictions, I cannot understand that". Not thinking as virtue. Einstein's imagination was to think outside of the normal paths, that also means you know the path and when you go beyond, That you take on other viewpoints, other angles. John has one path he goes with Bible goggles, and he does not even know that there is anything else than that path. He is a two-dimensional being living on the surface of his christian bubble - the surface is endless, but the area of the surface is tiny. But unless you go into the third dimension and look at the surface of the bubble you live on from the outside, you will never see the limitations - and that there is much more to be discovered. But as two-dimensional being he has no ability to grasp this idea of a third dimension. He is happy with the two he knows. Hmm - I like that description, I think I will use it more often.

Before Christianity or the Hebrew religion Hell was the place that everyone went to after dying, heaven was reserved exclusively for the gods alone. It wasn't until Zoroastrianism came on the scene that ordinary people were then allowed to go to heaven and Hell was reserved for the evil people. So Judaism, Christianity and Islam have all been influenced by the earlier monotheistic religion of Zoroastrianism whether they like it or not.

The issue with hell is that there is literally no possible way to deserve to go there forever. Some people may deserve punishment, but eternal torture is the ultimate unfairness no matter what you've done. Even people like Hitler and Genghis Kahn don't deserve *eternal suffering.* Imagine being tortured so long you could watch the entire life cycle of the universe birthing and being destroyed by the hands of time trillions of times and still not being any closer to salvation than when you started. Why not just obliterate the souls of the damned? That would be more reasonable than the concept of hell is.

There's a school of thought that after enough time had passed, the tortures of hell would become "meh" once the mind has snapped. A person could retreat into that mind, and live there, maybe playing back their past life, or imagining a new one. Someone in heaven wouldn't have this option, they'd spend every minute of every day and night, waiting on god, as prophesied in Rev. Of course, all of this is just a load of dingoes kidneys anyway.

There are non-theist religions. Cricket has a phrase for bad behaviour. "It's not cricket". Religion is a word that people associate with being Good. I object to cluttering it up with belief in a God.

"here's some conjecture based on a random human written book, you need to protect yourself from it!"
So you have four different perspectives from four different writers, who weren't even there, writing about hearsay that definitely does contradict each other, which introduces so much confusion. How could an infallible, perfect god allow that to happen? If you wanted people to know you, wouldn't you want your message to be perfectly clear with no room for confusion? So why allow four different authors tell four different versions of the same story with contradictory things happening? Make it make sense!
Lol, wow, when you trapped them with a yes or no they squirm like snails on a hot stone covered in salt.

John can't answer a question. Also John - Ask if he is being heard and keeps talking without pausing to get an answer. 😂😂
If I am not as smart as a book that says the Earth is flat and unmoving, the Sun goes around the Earth, the Sun and stars are not similar and the stars will fall to the earth someday, then I should burn forever.
I don't think John knows the definition of contradict.
He can't answer the question because the answer conflicts with his personal morals and if he sticks with it, he is afraid he will be damned for eternity in the after-life, if there is even one.
The Bible is like a car wreck. That's all I got out of John's babble.
I love talking about the resurrection because it's not just that there are 4 contradictory stories, but the Greek Testament doesn't tell us anyone actually witnessed the rising. All they have is the claim that the tomb was empty, so they need to accept that he was risen on faith, not witnesses (even though Jesus said the "wicked and adulterous generation" would be given this sign).

Ok Dave & Kenneth are my new favorite combo. This one won me over. Great job at letting the caller speak for a while and get all his thoughts out. I swear the longer the callers get to talk the easier your job becomes lol
When christians talk to me about the bible, i tell them "If I came to you and told you the way to paradise after death is the Easter Bunny. He brings warm fuzzy chocolate goodness forever, you just believe in the bunny and everything will work out". I then ask them what they think about what I said and after a couple of evasions they will admit it's silly. Then I tell them that when they talk to be about a god, it's the same as the Easter bunny story to me, and no matter what they try to pile onto that, it's just more Easter bunny nonsense.
This is awesome. The hosts remain calm as the caller (realizing he isn't blowing their minds) begins to talk faster and faster. THAT'S how you know when you've beaten these people. 😄
John is talking a mile a minute yet managing to say nothing. Phenomenal
99% of people who ever existed fail to meet the biblical standard to avoid hell, including this caller but they are deluding themselves out of fear AND never even consider whether the entire concept is rational or supported by sufficient evidence to warrant belief.
People who are praying will also claim that god has a plan and are allknowing, so praying is disrespecting their gods plan and ignoring that he already knows the thing they are praying for. And even when they claim that god has a plan they will still say that they have free will.
John seems to believe he called in to show off his tap-dancing skills. He’s not that good at tao-dancing.🤤

I love how they quote preachers and bible passages as proof because they assume everyone they talk to accepts it as absolute truth.
Im wondering if the "zero deviation by 40 writers" might have been a reference to the King James Bible translation. Ive heard that pulled by some fundamentalist family members when arguing about Christianity. Essentially it boils down to an argument that the king james version HAS to be divinely inspired because 47 not 40 as the caller said) translated the bible independently under King James direction and they all perfectly matched each other. My counter is usually something along the lines of that tells me one of two more likely scenarios happened: 1. They were all really good scribes, or 2. Since King James was known to be a little head chopped off happy, the scribes were clever enough to crib notes from each other.

The sad thing is, John will go home (if he isn't home already) and thank God for giving him the strength to battle these "heathens", confident and convinced that he was as accurate a promoter of The Word as he could be, while reminding himself to sprinkle in credit to God every now and then so as to not overinflate his ego. He might even say a half-hearted salvation prayer for the hosts, as the cherry on the top. I say these things because I was just as bad when I was a believer (Baptist specifically). This is how people think and argue when they begin the conversation already fully convinced of the truth of their claims, unwilling to bend or budge in any direction away from the one that's brought them comfort for so long.
