Listener from the Philippines hope someday the Philippines will be an atheist country who rely on reality and reason rather than faith. Science is the epitome of knowledge and rational thinking... More this kind of talks please its uplifting for us.
I am a victim of Time Square Church and remembered going to church one Sunday and the pastor saying that he is obligated to love and help people because of Jesus, Wow! If you are obligated to love and help people because of a deity then you shouldn't be among humans, most of all, you shouldn't be in front of a pulpit. If you are obligated to help and love people because of something that was written and created by men, then you are not worthy.
I have a couple of questions I have been struggling with as an atheist. Where did the "saved by grace" concept originate? Also, christians say that the bible was written over 1000 years, had 40 authors, and is still consistent. What is our answer for this?
I am confused by one aspect of Malachy McCourt: A couple of years ago, I turned on my radio during a segment on NY independent radio WBAI 99.5fm, and from what I heard McCourt saying, it sounded as though he were in support of then-President Trump, and/or his policies. Today, on WBAI during Radio Free Eirann, while discussing the possible oustre of Andrew Cuomo from the NY state governorship, McCourt feared the possibility of another Republican NY governorship come election day. So is McCourt pro-Trump the person, and anti-the republican party? If so, then it indicates what a populist Trump really is, and how dangerous he could be, considering that he can garner the votes across practically all political stripes, and from all demographics, age, gender, and race-wise.
90 years old and still going strong

If you want a modern take on religion and atheism in contemporary Ireland may I suggest an interview with, Michael Nugent, of ‘Atheism Ireland’.
Totally delightful and interesting interview. 🍀

He said on this interview “I wish them all a hot place” when he was talking about rush limbaugh and trump. Ie he wishes they would go to hell.
