WHAT IS THE ATHEIST EXPERIENCE?
The Atheist Experience is a weekly cable access 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.

"18:40 do you care whether your beliefs are true ?" should be the first q for all callers
I really miss Martin Wagner. I wish he would be invited to come and co-host on a few new shows.
RhondaH I always enjoyed his input and arguments. Wasn’t he one of original hosts back in the 90’s?
Always felt Martin spoke for speaking' sake. Never really brought much to the table. When with Matt would break into the conversation and cloud the issue.

P pa
@@slyjokerg Agreed. Some people talk because they have something to say, others talk because they have to say something.
"So you went to the one that felt right"
"no, I went to the one that connected with me..."
I laughed and laughed and laughed
If God knew everything that would happen, wouldn't that mean he set Eve up just so he could cast humanity out then offer "protection" from his punishment? Sounds like mafia tactics lol
Wow I did not expect to ever see a caller from St. John’s
"Can we mute Josh for a second? I feel like I'm talking to Darth Vader."
44:10 scooored!
Oh my God. Altruism??? There is neither too much altruism nor does evolution account for ANY of it. People doing good has nothing to do with evolution. And God has nothing to do with altruism.
That is saying that we are literally inside gods body, but somehow god being the universe makes us do more good than if the universe was not god. That's EXACTLY like saying that the cells in our body do good just because they are in our body.
Altruism benefits us. That's it. No god, no purpose, no anything more than it benefits us.
Martin was a pretty cool host. Hope he comes back.
If the god of the bible had been portrayed as a king instead of a God , he would be remembered as the most evil, mass murdering, tyrannical dictator of all time! Christians give the bible god a free pass because, they say, he is god the creator. I don't see the difference whether man or god. If his actions were evil or immoral, as the bible states, then he'd be just as guilty of being evil as any human committing the same deeds.
Im so glad I never fell for the batcrappery that is religion
Does Martin get combat pay for keeping Matt in check?
Matt needs a production team so he can come off the hook completely and leave the rest of the cast behind. He is on another level and they have different goals or at least they should. Matt is better at collecting viewers and slamming "asshats ", the rest are "good" at being nice, BORING!
Is Daniel possibly a little gullible? 😆
very
First caller just New Age WOO. I used to be into that crap.
I sure did enjoy Fallout 4. I'm on my second playthrough of Red Dead Redemption 2 at the moment. Praise Rockstar!
Rockstar are money grabbing whores. No debate.
Rockstar didn't make fallout 4
n Name a Gaming Corporation that isn’t. This is common knowledge.
Panteist, we believe in healthy food too, now im off to get a marsbar.
Dillahunted pantheism.
Again and again I discover that theists simply can't think straight and it is that what makes them hold preposterous beliefs. Daniel from Auburn Hills is an excellent example of this. He is blabbering on and on, and only displays the utter lack of thought that has gone into his nonsensical religious bullshit. It is appalling.
not sure I entirely agree with him by Robert Heinlein made a very good case that there's no such thing as actual altruism
If actual altruism excludes any sort of selfish motivation, then I'd agree, because ultimately, every action taken has a base selfish motivation.
Believe it or not. (I'm going with not)
I went to my local public swimming baths recently and being a bit nervous I went in at the shallow end. As I splashed around, getting used to the feel of the water, I started to think there must be a deeper region that I had still not explored. Why did that happen ? There must be a reason.
And we call that God.
And if there can be water that's a little deep...and water that can be deeper...that it must be possible for there to be water of infinite depth. Or maybe maximal depth.
And we call that -bog- -glob- God.
@@brucebaker810
I get your drift.
Good work Bruce.
I'm still waiting for the explanation of your video by the way !
No, not god. You could call it science. Just because your toes aren’t touching the bottom of the pool it doesn’t follow you call that depth god. First prove god.
@@roppa789
But in had a feeling it might be the god of the Hebrews.
Nonstop talking/babling doesn't answer WHY unless it answers...why.
We heard them clapping 👏
Matt's voice has an echo
What exactly are the commonalities that we all have in common ?
I like Martin but he needs to talk less and listen more. JMO.
Some people talk because they have something to say, others talk because they have to say something.
Martin just loves to hear himself talk. He makes calls just drone on and on. He must not have many friends to talk at.
even if there was a possibility of creating a simulation you have no idea what sort of universe the creators of that simulation is like... you're basing the idea that a civilization will create a simulation on the idea that there are so many civilizations in the universe... but that's not the universe the creators live in...
the creators might live in a universe with only one civilization, in which case, there's no "huge number of civilizations" that one of which will likely create a civilization, so there's far less chance they would...
you have nothing to base any probabilities on.
Hi just pull it off the Velcro
Christianity is really disgusting Joshua 😇
What about the prophecy in the Old Testament where it talks about the piercing of Jesus in his side, and in the New Testament it says that also?
What about it?
Atomental: This is what Christians call prophecy as a foretelling from the Old Testament to the New Testament that Jesus would be pierced in his side.
@@anonymousjohnson976 I know what prophecy means, I got that part, I was asking what about that prophecy, as in you said "What about the prophecy..." and I asked what about it thinking you'd elaborate on your point. Maybe I'm missing something here, either way thanks for replying.
The people who wrote the new testament account read in the old testament that the the messiah would be stabbed in the side and wrote their story to correspond with that.
Thats how fan fiction works. I could write a story about Spiderman and write that he lives in new york, and thats consistent with the canon of Spiderman. That doesnt make spiderman real. Keeping fiction internally consistent doesnt mean squat.
Wow. You really don’t see the problem with this “prophecy”?
Am I the only atheist on this planet that nave never seen Star Trek and Star Wars?
