WHAT IS TALK HEATHEN?
Talk Heathen is a weekly call-in television show in Austin, Texas geared toward long-form and on-going dialogue with theists & atheists about religion, theism, & secularism. Talk Heathen is produced by the Atheist Community of Austin.
Talk Heathen is filmed in front of a live studio audience every week at the Freethought Library of the Atheist Community of Austin.
The Atheist Community of Austin is organized as a nonprofit educational corporation to develop & support the atheist community, to provide opportunities for socializing & friendship, to promote secular viewpoints, to encourage positive atheist culture, to defend the first amendment principle of government-religion separation, to oppose discrimination against atheists & 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.

I am so sick of these people whose minds are stuck in bronze age mythologies.
The religious have set our species back, potentially, hundreds of years because of their ridiculous beliefs. Really sad! I hate religions so much!
Indeed, I struggle to understand how people have the position of believing mythology AND make life decisions and laws and discrimination to others completely because of that belief
More like stuck in the outhouse.
Yeah, it is frustrating, but Atheists must bear with it and forgive (genuine) Christians for they do not know what they believe... most Christians were indoctrinated and sold the nonsense since childhood for generations.
The "light" at the end of the tunnel is Religion overall is on its way out, church attendance continues to decline, and more Christians are leaving Religion for various reasons - LGBQT bigotry, increasingly political, sexual abuse, scammers etc...
The facts and trend, unlike Religion, are not lying.
More and more people leaving Religion as they discover they can and are having a moral and spiritual life without Religion and the god beliefs.
I suspect however Religion will become increasingly desperate to try and remain relevant before it inevitably dies.
i.e. shove Bibles in public schools, legislate Christian laws, "Christian nationalism", more scummy apologists and proselytizing etc..
Problem is that these brain trusts vote.
“Do either of you atheists believe in…. THE HOLY SPIRIT???”
This dude is a cartoon character.
🤣😂
The spirit as in alcohol? I understand that drugs play a role on many religious groups. So to turn water to wine to make drunk people more drunk at a party like Jesus should have done helps surely.
Indoctrination is a hell of a drug
He took the pill, for that I pity him.
But as a pastor he also hands out the pills, for that I despise him.
& a multi trillion $ industry.
Yes, it is. That's why the devil (Satan) came up with the evolution theory and presented it to man so he could try and push God out of the picture. It will never work because love is more powerful than hate. God is Love!
@@paulgemme6056 you, you personally, get all your morality and ethics from outside the Bible. And I can prove it. You get your morality and ethics from the exact same place atheists do. You personally, do not live exactly as the Bible commands you to. And that's a good thing because the Bible is an evil book that commands you to commit evil acts. The fact that you don't commit those evil acts (because if you did you'd be in prison, unable to post on UA-cam) means you're a far far more moral and ethical person than the Bible wants you to be, because you get your entire moral code from outside the Bible. And I can prove it.
It's the practice of secular humanism. Essentially, the idea that morality is secular and objective. You make just one single subjective concession, the idea that helping as many humans as much as possible is a good thing, but then everything else other than that is objectively moral, objectively working towards that goal, and it all stems and grows from that original goal, that original maxim that it's a good thing to help people.
People who only act good and charitable because they're coerced into it by the threat of eternal torture, aren't good people.
Honestly, most Christians are better, more moral and ethical people than the bible commands them to be. Christians already get their code of morality from outside the bible or any other religious sources, just like atheists do. But they don't seem to realise that, because they never bother to actually read the bible and find out about the awful stuff it tells people to do.
Because Jesus was a bigot. Most Christians are far more moral and ethical people than jesus ever was, they're better people than him. The proof is the Bible itself. They're better people than the Bible literally commands them to be. Because Christians get their code of morality from outside the bible, just like atheists do. I don't think anyone actually needs the bible in their life. Most Christians are already better people than the bible wants them to be, so why need it at all? They already pick and choose which parts of the bible to follow, they don't follow everything it tells them to do, which proves they already get their morality from outside the bible anyway, because they just inherently know that things like slavery and murder and physically punishing young girls for being rape victims are evil and wrong, even though the Bible says it's OK.
⠀
Because jesus explicitly says in the bible in Matthew 5:17 _EVERY_ _SINGLE_ _LAW_ _AND_ _RULE_ in the Old Testament still applies and will continue to apply until the end of time. In John 7:16-19 he berates people for disobeying the old testament, and in Luke 15:17 he says it's easier for the universe to fall apart than for one single letter of the law to.
⠀
So picking and choosing which parts you wanna follow is literally disobeying a direct command from jesus. You either follow literally every single law in the bible unwaveringly, or you're not actually a Christian, and that's according to Jesus himself quoted word for word in the bible.
⠀
And so if you already aren't getting your morality from the bible at all, why even need it in the first place? Most Christians in the world are absolutely 100% more moral people than the Bible asks them to be, they are already far better people than the Bible thinks they should be. They're surely against slavery, against genocide, against murder, against rape and especially the rape of children, against women and children having to obey the man that owns them (father or husband) and if they don't obey everything their owner says, the owners are allowed to kill the women and children to death for disobeying, and still are allowed into heaven because it "doesn't count" as murder under those circumstances. That's what the Bible tells people to do, follow those objectively evil commandments, like murder and slavery and rape being OK. The vast majority of Christians are against all of those things. They are already good people, so why should they need to read a book where anything that agrees with what they already think, they keep, and anything that disagrees with what they already think, they ignore? They pick and choose from the bible because it's obvious which parts of it are objectively evil, and so if the Bible never says these things are evil, then how does anyone know that they are evil at all? Because morality comes from outside the Bible. Morality is secular and objective, and it's the same morality atheists follow, and the vast majority of all religious people follow. It doesn't come from any holy book. Because if it did, then they wouldn't ignore half of the rules in their holy books.
⠀
By picking and choosing which parts to follow, they're proving that your morality comes from outside the Bible, because otherwise they wouldn't know which parts are good and which are not, if their morality didn't come from outside of the bible, then they wouldn't know which parts are so bad that you have to ignore them to be a good person. Nobody had to ever tell them that murder and slavery is bad, they just know it. Because humans are inherently moral and morality is secular. The minority of people who aren't like that don't represent the other 99% of humans. Humans are naturally altruistic and charitable. It's how the human race survived several near extinction events. Because people worked together in communities and tribes, meanwhile all the individualistic and selfish people died off in ice ages or catastrophic volcano eruptions or any other of the near extinction events. The human race was down to just a few thousand people, a few thousand survivors, and everyone alive today is descended from that small group who worked together to survive, and it's why humans are naturally altruistic and charitable and they help their fellow man because they know it's the objectively moral thing to do.
⠀ ⠀
So why even need the Bible at all, then? If your morality already comes from outside the bible, which is why you don't own people as property, or murder your wife and child for disobeying you, or go around raping children. You know those are bad ideas, without anybody ever needing to tell you that. The Bible never had to tell you murder is bad and immoral for you to understand that. That belief of yours already existed before you read the bible. Someone who's morality hypothetically _DOES_ come from the bible would need to be told by the Bible that murder is bad, and they wouldn't have known that otherwise.
⠀
The vast majority of Christians are far more moral ethical people than the Bible commands them to be. Very very few Christians follow the Bible word for word even though Jesus literally commanded them to do and said that anyone who doesn't follow every law both big and small, wouldn't get into heaven.
⠀
So the bible is just an unnecessary extra step. Your morality is already there, you don't need to spend time double checking it, by using the bible, and then ignoring any time the Bible doesn't agree with you anyway. The Bible is not going to change your mind on things like slavery and child rape, you're going to not follow those parts of the bible anyway, so it's just a waste of your time reading through it all like that. Christian's morality is not based on the Bible, it never was, it comes from outside of it. So why waste time going through it all like that if it is not going to change your morality anyway? No, in fact, the bible has to adjust to _YOU_ and _YOUR_ morality, by the fact you throw out the bits that don't agree with you. That's how the vast majority of Christians treat the bible. It's why in countries like here in the UK, there's plenty of gay priests, and gay church goers, because it's accepted. They threw out the evil command that being gay is an abomination, because their morality come from outside the bible and they know that being homophobic is wrong without anyone ever needing to teach them that. No holy book ever told them homophobia is wrong, they just know it.
Most Christians are good people, or at least much better than what the bible wants them to be. Not because anyone ever had to tell them how to be a good person. No, they're good person people because they were born that way, and 99% of humans are the same way, naturally moral and ethical and kind and altruistic and charitable.

Kudos to the pastor who put the honest work to listen, answer and, most important, THINK about the topics discussed. It's all about the interaction and the engagement.
Or most likely not. Callers like this make a living pretending to listen and then turning around to preach the same bullshit to whoever listens.
@@JayMaverickexactly. It's the mere pretence of reasonableness. Totally mindless.
@@JayMaverick the point of any debate or discussion like this isn't to change the mind of the person you're arguing with. That's impossible. You'll never change their mind. Because when human beings are presented with arguments and evidence that debunks their beliefs, they actually become MORE entrenched in their beliefs and believe them even more. It's just a weird quirk of how human brains work. Partly because people are too embarrassed and ashamed to ever publicly admit that they were wrong. If their beliefs are public, they'll never possibly be changed or reversed.
No, the point of discussions and debates like this is to change the minds of the people listening to or watching the debate. The silent observers. The audience, the crowd. They simply watch. They never profess their beliefs to the thousands of people watching. And therefore their minds are extremely changeable. They can have their beliefs completely reversed and because they never told anyone what those beliefs were, they don't have the human psychological stubbornness that makes them even more entrenched in their false beliefs, they can change their minds completely and nobody will ever know.
So you'll never change the mind of the person you're debating with. But you _CAN_ change the minds of the thousands of people who are watching the debate. It's an extremely effective way to do so.
you were fooled by the illusion of thinking. 33 years of "bible study", calling into an atheist talk show to preach, and unsure if he'd disown his own children for being non-believers. it's over for this guy.
Are you joking? I don’t think he answered more than one question. He went off on tangents that were completely irrelevant.
These people worship a book not a god.
Spot on. Or mostly worship their interpretation of it. & BOY! some of those interp's are really weird.

If you simply jump through the hoops he's set up for you, you can avoid all the undesirable scenarios that he proposes will happen to you.
It's the arrogance of certainty that he and others project towards nonbelievers, despite any evidence to the contrary.
Yup. "I'm right because my book says so and my book is right because it says so and you're wrong because I say so and so does my book which is true so you must clearly be wrong because if you were right then I'd be wrong and I can't be wrong because I have a book that is right and " and on and on and on..

23:48 that long pause is something I wouldn’t wanna hear if someone asked my family that. That should’ve been an immediate no.
Thank you I thought I was the only one that thought that, I winced at the pause
Pastor Eugene got lucky with 5he softest softballs that were presented to him. I don't think Matt or Aron would have been so kind ! 🤪
Matt would have ripped him a new gospel 😂
"Pastor eugene, what would you like to have for dinner tonight?"
Pastor Eugene: "Well, I am not hungry now, but assuming my human body continues its metabolic functions and I will expend enough energy to require sustenance in the latter portion of the day, I would elect then to have food. What food that may be is not yet a decided quantity or quality and I suppose I will sit in my study, be graciously blessed with the holy spirit and only then I would be able to sort through my hand written notes of restaurants, numbers and menu items to choose from"
I love listening to him talk it's like talking to a 153 year old man.
😂
But are you sure he believes in food?

Jesus Christ is the Living Word. Jesus Christ is the Bread of Life. Atheists offer no hope. This world offers no hope. Jesus Christ is our only Hope. Our Living Hope. Study and learn. The truth will set you free. Faith comes from hearing the Word. Repent (change your mind) and be saved today. No religion needed. Just faith, faith plus nothing.
The Eternal Word (John 1:1 - 5)
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shines in the darkness and the darkness did not comprehend it.

“The Bible is evidence that Bible exists. Its not evidence for a god, it is a claim. You dont know what evidence is, and that’s sad.”

In case you missed it, the way this guy gauges the reliability of the Bible is by using the Bible to recognize adversaries.
In other words, anyone who denies the accuracy of his Bible is an adversary, proving him right. Nothing like theist self deception.

Great Job in exposing the real truth!
Seriously! The caller thinks people are suggesting that different shades of red are what people are referencing when they say there are contradictions in the bible. How dishonest.
Why are these people not challenged to FIRST convince the rest of the world's religious people to accept their version of the gods? Their personal interpretation of whatever version of the religion they claim to espouse and speak for contains NOTHING worth debating about, any more than we would debate the particulars of the Greek or Egyptian gods. Wouldn't their time be more productively spent rescuing the souls of believers who worship the wrong gods, before worrying about what an atheist believes?
Let's be clear: they argue with the atheist to reassure THEMSELVES, because the atheist presents REAL challenges to the entire god concept - impossibilities and glaring contradictions they'd never considered until pointed out by the atheist, and that they then scramble to rationalize away... hence the religious apologist.
Put another way, they don't like it being pointed out that their invisible evidence-free gods are no more real than all the other gods they know full well never existed, and for exactly the same reasons.
In the face of other religions, they can just claim religious superiority, in the certainty that theirs are the REAL gods. Seeing the emptiness and meaningless of the god concept itself laid bare...that their gods really ARE no more believable than any others, their arguments are posed to the atheist in order to reassure and convince themselves.
@ObservantHistorian
Every religion claim's that theirs is the only true God!
What evidence does the good Pastor have that his religion is not just other false religion?
Why is his "God" real and all the others are not?
When he understands why he dismisses ALL the other possible "Gods", only then will he understand why we atheists dismiss his.

@@DennisMerwood-xk8wp No worries, we all end up making the same mistake! I certainly have!
1:25: Poor Jamie and his "Facepalm" moment.i can't blame him, though.😅😅🤦🤦🤦
God submit your resume and I will get back to you lol ;-) @ 23:23 he had to actually think of that WOW!!!
I feel the same shit when I take shrooms my dooood
I can prove that there’s ghosts. There was a documentary back in the 1980s that showed actual proof of ghosts. The name of the documentary was Ghostbusters
😂😂😂
Oh my, the pastor with the gift of discernment could be a time traveler from the Salem Witch Trial era. Horrifying he “just LOOKS at some one and TESTS the spirits inside them?
20:08 this whole call in a nutshell.
Followed by "The only thing I can offer [in response to your legitimate moral argument against the authority of the Biblical god] is prayer."
That's right folks. It's Deflection Time! Don't address the point at all. Do an impromptu magical invocation instead.
Holy spirit enters him? Psychosis? As for knowledge etc I have a Harry Potter book in one hand and I am stood in front of a train with hogwarts written on it.
The phrase 'i am stood' is not grammatically correct in written English.
The verb phrase should be 'I am standing', which means 'I am in an upright position on my feet'. For example: I am standing outside the supermarket waiting for my friend.
@@reefhog Noah, flood, covered the earth... earth, the Euohrates / Tigris would cover 1.6 million square km, that would cover thearth in Assyria / persia / middle east, not the planet earth. A bit like the word "world" North Sentinalese have no knowledge of 99.99% of the planet, so define their use of world. To me and many more, as long as correct wording is done on legal matter, anything else is just about getting a point over, like somebody putting Hines beens on a shopping list meaning Heinz beans, as long as the person doing the shopping gets them, does it matter?
Red and purple, pretty much the same color. So muh gawd is truh!
I have to say, you two have a good bedside manner. Calm, soothing tones, polite yet firm and not condescending or dismissive. Even when it would be quite undestandable. I think this is the first Talk Heathen I've watched. I'll have to stick around and watch more and see how you go with less sincere or more obnoxious callers and see how you handle those also.
The lake of fire question mighta been a step too far though. Heh.
Boy this poor man is so indoctrinated.
I feel uncomfortable with all the discussions about the gentleman's tool and he being entered by some holy spirit....
Long as they agree a safe word...
Did that guy step into a time machine in the 18th century and ended up here?
Next time the Holy Spirit speaks to you, please ask for two forms of valid ID (the DMV asks for three).
Whiskey is my holy spirit!
Talking snakes, talking donkeys, talking burning bushes-what makes all of this more accurate than prophets flying off into heaven on winged horses? How then is the BuyBull more accurate or less ridiculous than the Koran? Or any other fairy tale?

The caller claims: “I have a god-given ability to sense the evil intent of men.” Seems like a big claim, but actually this sentiment is echoed by every father of every 15 year old daughter in the world.
It's not what you don't know that will get you in trouble. It's what you know that just ain't so. Mark Twain.
Christianity existed 300 years before the Bible was canonized
The reason he is so quick to accept the Bible and God without evidence is that there is no risk in it. Compared to a babysitter watching his kids.
He pulled himself back as a human at the end
Perhaps analogize Scientology with the Book of Erick. Scientology was based on a novel written by L. Ron Hubbard.
The first example of a contradiction this pastor can think of is the color of a cloak. Someone please revoke this person’s pastoring license STAT! Lol
The mere fact that this pastor watches this show on the regular but yet he can’t come up with better arguments to defend his beliefs.
Preacher man, preacher man, does whatever Jesus can, mixed up bullshit, sounds like lies, just agree, and close your eyes. Look out here comes the preacher man (Spider-Man theme song)
You have to empathize. As soon as I get old enough to have stoic old man voice, I will be calling in to fuck with y'all.
He was entered by the holy spirit. Wild
I often get entered by spirits but mine come from a bottle
rectally, no less!
Hey can't judge between consenting adults
😂
Any story containing "I was entered" should begin with "Dear Penthouse Forum". 😛You fellow old-timers will get the reference.
It's Eugene Levy.
This has to be a Garrison Keiler bit
Unless you address the fact that pastors and clergy are beholdened to the Bible and therefore no matter what you tell them they have to defend it, and make that clear to the pastor or clergy person, you can't get anywhere..
It’s just beholden, beholdened isn’t a word.
@@reefhog yeah, I don't care. I use voice to text and I don't often proofread...
@@petebetz5358 I don’t care that you don’t care. Talk to text doesn’t make up non words.
@@reefhog Yes it does! All the time! I mean you should see some of the stuff it's printed out for me. It's crazy! And you do too care. You wouldn't have said anything.
@@petebetz5358 You’re confusing caring with being amused.
'Im aware there are two creation accounts in genesis, I don't see them as contradictory.'. Only someone who has actively suppressed their own ability to think could spout this line, even without reading the two clearly contradictory stories. There's two of them dingus, that means they're not the same....
I have such respect for ALL the presenters/interlocutors that discuss with various theists how their stories are not reality. Where are the discussions about churning the sea of milk, or Yggdrasil?
