If you have ever wondered how an atheist reads The Bible, this episode is for you. Anthony discusses his notes and thoughts that crossed his mind as he read Exodus. This is the second episode of the series Secular Bible Study where Anthony reads through The Bible for the first time as a secularist.

Eventually, all 66 books will be covered. Anthony had quite a few things to say and share, so the recording is being broken up into two parts. You can look forward to the rest of the discussion in the coming weeks!

A few weeks ago, Anthony and Chad attended a meetup.com event for an atheist group. We wanted to break down our experience and encourage you all to reach out to a similar group; especially if you have to conceal your beliefs for any reason. Also, Anthony joined the Freedom From Religion Foundation to further reach out to the secular community, and he tells you about the benefits of doing so. Let us know what you think, and enjoy!

In this episode we discuss Alcoholics Anonymous and a court case in Ohio dealing with an atheist forced to go. We also hit on the church ceremony where a bunch of people blessed their AR-15's and a book about a Mormon girl that went from a survivalist style childhood to multiple colleges.

The podcast has now reached its 200th official episode not counting bonus episodes we have done over the years. Amanda thought this would be a good time to look back at the first episodes we recorded together, but I went further and am doing a history of the show grabbing random silly clips from here and there. I also give a few stats and give a brief history of our friendship as it has grown over the years. Thanks for being a listener.

Chad gives his review of the Imperfectly Human Tour staring Jaclyn Glenn and Future Sunsets. (Spoiler: It was amazing.) Then we deep dive into how corrupt Jerry Falwell, Jr. is and how he is using Liberty University for monetary and political gain. Then we talk a little bit about Brett Kavanaugh being in the news again one year later for the same things.

So while Amanda was away, she happened to go past this little town in Michigan. She had no idea how close she was to being burned as a witch! We also wrap up a Satanic Church story from a couple years ago, talk about the Popes take on some child abuse in the church, and when doctors turn people away because of religious beliefs.

This week we discuss CRISPR and some of the problems it is discovered to have. Two married women both carried the same baby in a new technique. Indonesia is on the verge of a measles epidemic if the Muslims there do not start getting vaccines. Finally, there is a new app for Hindu’s to purchase prayers through an app and we totally bastardize the concept.

Heathen Hodgepodge: Birth Control, Abortion, and Sex Ed (Anthony, Matt, and Chad)

Welcome to our first foray into topic-less episodes. “Heathen Hodgepodge” is an opportunity for us hosts to bring up anything that has been important to us lately. This could include articles we’ve found, events from our lives, or philosophical discussions. Really, we bring up anything we damn well please.

This time we sort of went off on a tangent when Anthony brought up the birth control debate. We discussed our opinions on abortion, sex education, and corporations as individuals. In order to not have a 2 hour+ episode, we decided to break this recording up. Check back in a few weeks for the second part, and let us know what you thought of this one. Thank you, and enjoy!

On March 26, 2015 Governor Mike Pence signed SB101 which is broadly worded enough that would allow business owners to legally discriminate again whomever they wish if it allegedly goes against their personal religious beliefs. It has had a huge backlash in Indiana and Anthony and Chad had a little bit to say about it.

This episode rounds out a trilogy of episodes we did in a marathon recording session with Amanda monopolizing the mic most of the time. In this episode, we dive into a couple of topics that are not something we would normally talk about but seemed to really grab her attention. We talk about the life of paranormal investigator Lorraine Warren who recently died. We also talk about a fraternity that had had such a sordid history with sexual assault and all-around bad behavior that they eventually shut themselves down.

Are our public schools really secular? Is it illegal to pray in school? Of course not. Listen as Anthony breaks down the silly notion that prayer and God are absent from America's public schools; and why he's okay with that.

After a month long hiatus, we are finally back. We jump right in to the latest news that has come up in the past week. This includes Karen Pence’s new job at an anti-LGBT Christian School and the Buzzfeed article about Micheal Cohen saying he was directed to lie to Congress. We also dig in to the controversy surrounding some students in MAGA hats and a Native American Veteran at the Lincoln Memorial.

A Marilyn Monroe is offending churchgoers. Sex abuse survivors can sue the church in Australia. The Supreme Court sides with the baker in the original gay wedding cake case. Private schools are teaching absolute junk and editing history in Florida and Michigan. Plus we quickly discuss a “human sacrifice” and a movie being made about how God chose Trump to be president.

Anthony reads two poems (feel free to skip this), and Chad shares an STD themed haiku (it’s amazing). The hosts give props to the underappreciated Jaclyn Glenn and other women of YouTube, who have their content ignored by horny dudes. Teaching kids fairytales as though they’re reality affects their ability to think critically ….. huh, who would’ve thought? Ken Ham said things … again.

Amanda brings up the story of Jahi McMath. Be warned, this gets pretty morbid so be aware going in. A pharmacist from Walgreens is accused of sexual discrimination for not filling a prescription. We also spend a little time catching up with Josh Duggar.

We start with reviews of a couple of documentaries that we recommend. We then get into an increase in exocisms, Ark encounter ticket sales numbers and Mike Pences doctor resigns. My favorite headline ever is “Oklahoma Pastor Busted Running a White Supremacist Prostitution Ring”

A superintendent of a school in Indiana was arrested for using her insurance to try to get healthcare for a student in need. We also discuss a gay conversion therapist that has now come out as being gay himself. Measles is making a comeback due to the anti-vaccination movement. And we find more hypocrisy from Christian right.

In this episode we discuss a Muslim doctor in Michigan running for Senate, an Atheist flag flying over a Ten Commandments monument, and how apparently "gay panic" is some kind of defense in certain places. We wrap up with a review of the new Bible Museum in Washington DC.

Chad and Amanda get together on the Saturday night before Election Day 2016. We have a few drinks and speculate on what may and may not happen in the days after the election. We do share a couple of stories too. There was a technical issue that happens at about 22:50 in the track that we address as well.

If you have ever wondered how an atheist reads The Bible, this series is for you. Anthony and Matt discuss notes they took and thoughts they had as they read Genesis. This is the third episode of the series Secular Bible Study where Anthony and Matt read through The Bible for the first time as secularists.

Eventually, all 66 books will be covered. Unfortunately, Anthony and Matt had A LOT to say; so the recording is being broken up into multiple parts. This is the last episode for Genesis. In the weeks to come we will move on to Exodus; so make sure you come back!

Everyone is gone this week so we are sharing an episode from the other show that Chad and Amanda did for a while.

Chad and Amanda Talk about a Story from Kentucky of a baby being found in a dumpster, still alive, and also about a Man that was arrested for a videotape that had not been returned 14 years ago. Chad talks, at great length, about his first jobs detasseling corn and working at a video store.

If you have ever wondered how an atheist reads The Bible, this episode is for you. Anthony and Matt discuss notes they took and thoughts they had as they read Genesis. This is the second episode of the series Secular Bible Study where Anthony and Matt read through The Bible for the first time as secularists. Eventually, all 66 books will be covered. Unfortunately, Anthony and Matt had A LOT to say; so the recording is being broken up into multiple parts. You can look forward to the rest of the discussion in the coming weeks!

I also could have called this: "What I Did During My Yearly Quarantine" or "Covid-stravaganza". Basically, after almost a year of not recording due to quarantines and being super busy with work, your hosts, Chad and Amanda, are finally back together to start recording about the state of the world.
Since we have been away so long and we are sure everyone is tired of hearing about the chaos that is the state of the USA, we talked briefly about it but really more dove into the things that we have been up to in the past year.
I want to thank everyone that has stayed subscribed long enough to get a notification that we have a new episode up. We tend to go on quite a bit here. Over two hours actually so I split our conversation up into 2 parts.
For new listeners: This is not our typical format, but feel free to listen to help get to know us a little better.

A note was found in the butt of a Jesus statue. We make predictions on the Moore/Jones special election and discuss the aftermath of Al Franken's resignation. In other news, Mike Pence is a snitch and Donald Trump really should stay out of other countries affairs.

** We are also making a call to Ex-Jehovah's Witnesses that are survivors of abuse that was covered up in some form by the church. Due to input after a recent episode, we have decided to plan an episode or two to highlight stories of survivors that are willing to share them. Just give us an email to let us know if you are interested.

In this episode our hero's finally get together, after a long break, to catch up with one another and to discuss all of the controversy around the Planned Parenthood video's that have been going around for the past couple of months. Chad talks about getting some property. They also derail their own topic a few times because they are easily distracted.  

Chad and Amanda discuss The shootings that happened right after Thanksgiving at the Planned Parenthood in Colorado and at the Christmas party in San Bernardino. Old men marrying pregnant teens, and Christian home-schoolers abusing kids. They also derail the train of thought a few times which made for some good conversation and insight into their childhoods.

Amanda has decided to share a very personal story of the time she needed an abortion. Chad just tags along for the ride for most of this episode but decides to share the story of getting a vasectomy since it is the closest thing he has to compare.

Trigger warning: We probably share way too many details in our stories on this one. But it helps really paint the picture.

 There is no new episode this week For The Secular Perspective but I wanted to share with you something new we are working on. We hope that you will enjoy it as much as we enjoyed recording it.

Chad and Amanda introduce themselves as they begin a new adventure in podcasting and video blogging about random stories in the news that make them thing of memories from their personal lives.

This week we dive into everything we have missed over the past couple of weeks involving the impeachment saga and the infamous phone call between Trump and the Ukrainian president. We also try to cast who would play Trump in his biopic.

** I'm not including any links this time around because this thing is moving so fast everything I have is probably out of date already as of this upload. **

This is the second half of our first hodgepodge episode (awesome title, right?!). The guys bring up all kinds of fun topics like how Jesus is similar to Superman, Hobby Lobby’s continual desire for American theocracy, our disappointment in Pope Francis’ recent comments on childless marriages, one of the best trolls of all time at the Oklahoma Statehouse, and a recent discovery at a Catholic seminary in Ireland that really got to Anthony.
