@@thedave1771 first of all, Jesus is probably fictional, even as a man. Second of all, that's nonsense. Nothing that falls under 'woke' was promoted by this mythical Jesus.
This simple sentence is so hard to grasp for theists. They always threaten atheist with hell, like, "you'll realize when you'll dead or something", not realizing that 1) a threat of eternal torment isn't exactly the best way to "sell" an all-loving deity 2) it sounds like someone pointing a finger at you and yelling "Imma shoot you with my invisible gun!" without realizing how childish they look.
@@AcaciaAvenue”I don’t believe your threat of violence is credible, but nevertheless I respect the sentiment behind your threat of violence and wish I was allowed to handle it accordingly.”
The "you atheists" callers are always a tough listen because they’re more interested in tearing down atheism than actually defending their own beliefs. It’s like they’re using the call as their personal soapbox for a grudge match. And Jay? He must be a blast at parties-if by "fun" you mean "constantly bringing up heated debates about things being woke."
Your "like" is unnecessary - Jay calls in to WIN, for nothing else, to assure himself he OWNs "The Truth", and all others are wrong. He has no arguments, he has mantras that he believes are irrefutable gotchas. All he is interested in that him OWNING The Truth and being saved makes him feel good. His complete faith is based on emotion. As already reformator Martin Luther said here in Germany, "True Faith needs no evidence". I.e. the best christians are those that are not interested in facts. That is cult like flat earth is a cult - believing the slogan is irrefutable truth makes you a superior genius, and all others are deluded, indoctrinated morons.
Whether it's religion or race, bigotry is always used in the same way. “I’ll tell you what’s at the bottom of it,” he said. “If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.” - LBJ to a staffer describing the GOP's Southern Strategy 1960
I’ve seen a couple of “you atheists” callers leave the show having learned something and questioned their original premise. It doesn’t happen a lot, but it’s magical.
What I find funny is to flip the script. So before a "Jay" gets to babble and use the word woke, I'll be using it on him. I'll misgender him and then, when he gets upset about the pronoun, I'll just go "Why are your kind always pushing your work agenda with these pronouns?" If he talks about how he is a guy, I'll say "Are you sure? You don't look like a man to me." (I guarantee the guy who plays these games does not look like the hegemonic 6 pack strong chin male ideal. And if I'm evil, I start talking about if the person is even human. Hey... they dehumanize plenty of people. Let them feel that horror a little bit.) See, the right has been stealing our words and deliberately twisting them. See.. theory as in scientific theory vs. what the average magical creation story "theory". So when a white guy gets hired, just say "It's good to see affirmative action working out for him." Or.. I see that he's the new DEI hire. Never take them seriously. Show the world how much of a joke they are. Humiliate them. Bully them. Troll them. It may not be nice but who said that nice always works. I match the energy. Nice gets nice. Mean gets mean. Cruel gets cruel.
My favorite example of this is the woman who literally wrote the book on anti-woke was asked in an interview to define what woke was and she fumbled and was unable to. Really drives it home how popular words in the conservo-sphere are just emotional triggers without any real meaning.
I have responded with a thoughtful explanation “I like the word ‘woke’ because it reminds me that over the last 6 decades I’ve ‘woken up’ to the realities of other people’s lived experiences, including how badly women have suffered and how hard we had to fight for equality. It just feels like waking up so the word works for me. But if someone comes up with a better description I’m open to it.”
@@jo-p5 I find that 'woke' is about recognizing social injustice and demonstrating a willingness to do something to correct that disparity. So, a similar view.
Ironically the term woke does have a definition, and it has to do with people who are knowledgeable and aware of the deeper complexities and nuance of political topics, in particular the history and complex components of things like racism and discrimination. You used to call yourself 'woke' because you are essentially awoken, or aware of the complex truths of an issue. Evidently it's now a bad thing to understand something beyond the surface level analysis. Ignorance is what smart people do.
@@CrawfishDeluxe I totally agree, which is why I added the "conservative" clarification. They keep tossing that around with seemingly no idea what it actually means
They always find a way to bring it back around to trans people smh. How dare people want to be happy, regardless if they can naturally conceive a child or not. And not realizing they're dehumanizing those who are infertile in the process
Or those who choose to remove the body parts needed for reproduction. I had my uterus and cervix removed 8 weeks ago but that didn't stop me from being a woman. Your reproductive organs don't determine your gender. I dont know why it always comes down to reproduction with these weirdos. It's so bizarre
These guys are a great team. Nice to see hosts working together so effortlessly and effectively to utterly dismantle a caller then sweep away the little pieces without a raised voice or insult.
Exactly, these calls usually end the same way Host: Prove your god is real Caller: Prove he's not real! Host: the burden of proof is on you! Caller: WHAT ABOUT TRANS PEOPLE!!!!
Or more typically they emotionally fall back on their prejudices as their anger reveals the real source of their call. They just want to yell about gay and trans people and "own the libs."
Exactly, but what are the odds that they stop doing that because they care about how we feel ? Some theists are nice people until they find out you are an atheist, & then they open their mouths. Sometimes what follows is idiotic rambling that sounds like this caller.
It hasn't slipped my attention that Christians will often say, "Jesus loves you," or some variant as a way to insultingly exit an argument they're losing.
I find it ironic that one symbol they use is the crucifix, as if Jesus, if he existed, was the only person to ever be crucified. It was a common method of execution. See the movie Spartacus and the end of it for example. Also, hands were not nailed through the palms as the tissue would be torn away by the weight of the body so when they show stigmata in the palms that would also be fake. Nails, if used at all, were driven through the wrist. Most were just tied and left to die from the weight of the body on the lungs and heart.
ROTFLMAO, I got thrown off twitter for my reply to some christians They knew I was an atheist, so they ganged up and flooded by account with "we will pray for you", and I just told them I am an atheist, its meaningless so please stop, so MORE of them piled on. So then I replied "Well I am going to masturbate for you, because that way we will actually know something happened and one person was made happier for it"...BOOM account closed.
"Atheists are statistically smarter than Theists on average". Jay comes in and proves the point. Good work Jay. And his last statement clearly shows he is a conspiracy theorist. So lets add delusional to the list while we are at it.
"There is no Hate deeper than 'Christian Love'" sums up why I cringe when someone says "jesus loves you" or "God loves you"... like, "oh great, guess i'm going to be burned alive then" 😓
I disagree, I am sure help watch a lot of female sports because of the how sexualisation of the permissible clothing they wear is. Womens volleyball is a great example, the MUST wear clothing that covers a MAXIMUM about of their body. They are probably upset that they don't know if their sexual desires are towards someone transgender or not.
If Jay is an example of someone who isn't 'woke,' then I'm happy to be woke. He was a hateful person desperate to hold onto his worldview as society leaves him behind.
For every "one" atheist program available across the USA, there are about 500 Christian programs available & other religions. That's about the ratio......
Christianity is such a weak message that it has to be parroted by 500 programs until people give in to its inanity through sheer overexposure and repetition, whereas atheism is such a strong message that only one outlet here and there is required for atheism to thrive.
As an atheist, I don't threaten people with hell, or promise them heaven. I don't accuse people of breaking divine laws that are indistinguishable from fiction. There is no supporting evidence for any alleged contact with god. I have no reason to think that any kind of afterlife is possible, following brain death.
@@clemstevenson That's easy. You lied by claiming no evidence supports belief in God. Fine Tuning of the initial conditions (constants and quantities) of the Universe.

A woman is an adult human person that has a desire to be in accordance with a particular set of Social and cultural norms that are typically associated with a female sex
I would argue it also have to include the set of rites of that society. Many societies mark the first period as the time a girl became a woman. So technically someone who has never had a period would never be a woman. The same happens with men. For the masais (i believe) You have to run avove 5 oxes to became legally a man. So You can be a father or grandfather and YET not be a man.
@@arctictruck10 I am not religious but this is just wrong. a woman is an adult female human being. a small percentage of people will experience gender dysphoria and transition to appear like the opposite sex. its a medical condition. they dont become that sex by doing so. Please stop changing defintions. i support trans people but a woman is a woman a trans woman is a trans woman theres nothing wrong with that. acknowledging the truth helps you become more understood.
also this makes it sound like gender is a social construct and anyone can say im a woman and theyll be a woman. if gender was a social construct, gender dysphoria wouldn't be a thing, and any man can say im a woman without transitioning and then theyd enter women spaces etc. youre not helping trans people like this.
@@ilovecatsandsoup I have to correct you on one thing: "medical condition" usually means illness. Being trans, even though it can cause gender dysphoria, isn't an illness per se (even if it can cause symptoms that may be illnesses, mostly mental ones). In any case gender dysphoria by itself can be considered a mental illness/issue if it goes untreated, and is severe.
Being seen and being heard is far more important than being sweet or polite. I never miss an opportunity to at least ask street preachers, JWs..."How's your imaginary friend today?"
I got regular visits from JWs. Once two women came - maybe mother and daughter. Always fun to argue. In the end I asked the young one "What is for you the most compelling argument for the existence of God?" "The prophecies that were fulfilled by Jesus!" "Hmm - you are aware that the Bible was written down way later, by experts of the Old Testament. Is it not possible that these people knew of all the prophecies that God has to fulfill, and might have adjusted the story a bit? After all, when they were writing the gospels, they were decades later and hundreds of miles away, in a time you had to walk to get somewhere else. None of those that later read the gospels had ever talked with an eye witness or knew the region where it all should have taken place". In my memory she stared at me with open mouth, and the older woman grabbed her and led her away. And since then, I had no visits from JWs anymore.
I Dont believe that.... To them means the same thing as .... I believe that IS NOT TRUE. Its a nuance in language that they just cant comprehend because they have been primed that way
If you take "Because God said!" off the table, a lot of issues do tend to shift leftward. I don't see that as a problem, but then, I'm a way-leftist myself.
I've wondered about that. Do theists believe that everyone floats around like a ghost in heaven and hell or do they believe you get a new body? Either way, how old do you look and do you have to stay with that look/age for eternity?
@@Speednote10 I think they believe you become a spirit form. As far as what someone would look like after death, I don't know. But that's a good question 👌 I'm gonna read into it 👌👌
Because when they made this stuff up, there wasn't as sharp a line between living and dead in the generally accepted worldview. Literally everything was supernatural when you don't know where the sun goes at night.

As an Iowan I feel a great deal of shame and embarrassment over people like this that live near me. It's...disappointing and disheartening. When I was a kid growing up with iptv, it made me feel like people generally wanted the best for each other whatever they believe.
I think the simplest definition of "woke" is "actually giving a shit about people who may not be like you". Which, yes, I daresay Jay thinks is a very bad thing.
It has shifted its meaning to a degree because of a particular group of idiots who claim to be 'woke', and spout such nonsense as all whites are inherently racist, all men are inherently violent, and human reproductive biology is a social construct. And if you push back on that then apparently you're a hateful bigot. So yeah when I use that word I mean it in a derogatory way, and I mean those types. I'm far left btw and not religious.
Also I am very tired of theses we all have our beliefs as if each belief has the same weight or significance. Take the example of I believe I can walk through a moving bus and the I believe I can not walk through a moving bus one person is right the other is splattered all over the asphalt.

"WOKE" simply means to be aware. My goodness why are folks making that word a bad thing?. It just means to open your eyes. I'm an atheist by the way. 😂 I'm wide awake. 😂
racists, misogynists and homobophes are naturally going to be opposed to 'woke'. any person who decries 'woke' has discolosed to us that they are either racist, misogyinst, homophobic, or all (and likely science deniers, as well, ironically, since we wouldn't know about their thoughts without the advent of computers and information technololgy)
It means specifically awareness of and opposition to unfair discrimination like racism. The caller here was "woke" if all it means is awake as opposed to unconscious.

The moment I heard he said the word "woke", I could smell the bigotry minutes before it ruined the breathable air.
Whenever a right-winger says "woke", you might as well quote Bill Engvall and say "Here's your sign".
are you assuming everyone who will not normalize this mental illness is either a right winger or religious? I am as atheist as they come, and I do not endorse the dynasty-based electoral system.
They should read up on that Jesus guy, he was pretty woke too, at least the way they like to describe him.
You can always tell how someone means 'woke' by the tone of voice they use.
Rightwingnuts have no clue what it means.
@@thedave1771 first of all, Jesus is probably fictional, even as a man. Second of all, that's nonsense. Nothing that falls under 'woke' was promoted by this mythical Jesus.
@@thedave1771 actually a bunch have started rejecting Jesus teachings because they realized it was “woke” lmaooooo
An atheist doesn't believe that god exists, also we don't believe in the devil and hell. Therefore, we are unafraid.
Yep!!!😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
When an atheist is unafraid the theist is jealous. That's the crux of it.
This simple sentence is so hard to grasp for theists. They always threaten atheist with hell, like, "you'll realize when you'll dead or something", not realizing that
1) a threat of eternal torment isn't exactly the best way to "sell" an all-loving deity
2) it sounds like someone pointing a finger at you and yelling "Imma shoot you with my invisible gun!" without realizing how childish they look.

The "you atheists" callers are always a tough listen because they’re more interested in tearing down atheism than actually defending their own beliefs. It’s like they’re using the call as their personal soapbox for a grudge match. And Jay? He must be a blast at parties-if by "fun" you mean "constantly bringing up heated debates about things being woke."
Your "like" is unnecessary - Jay calls in to WIN, for nothing else, to assure himself he OWNs "The Truth", and all others are wrong.
He has no arguments, he has mantras that he believes are irrefutable gotchas.
All he is interested in that him OWNING The Truth and being saved makes him feel good. His complete faith is based on emotion.
As already reformator Martin Luther said here in Germany, "True Faith needs no evidence". I.e. the best christians are those that are not interested in facts.
That is cult like flat earth is a cult - believing the slogan is irrefutable truth makes you a superior genius, and all others are deluded, indoctrinated morons.
Whether it's religion or race, bigotry is always used in the same way.
“I’ll tell you what’s at the bottom of it,” he said. “If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.”
- LBJ to a staffer describing the GOP's Southern Strategy 1960
I’ve seen a couple of “you atheists” callers leave the show having learned something and questioned their original premise. It doesn’t happen a lot, but it’s magical.
What I find funny is to flip the script. So before a "Jay" gets to babble and use the word woke, I'll be using it on him. I'll misgender him and then, when he gets upset about the pronoun, I'll just go "Why are your kind always pushing your work agenda with these pronouns?" If he talks about how he is a guy, I'll say "Are you sure? You don't look like a man to me." (I guarantee the guy who plays these games does not look like the hegemonic 6 pack strong chin male ideal. And if I'm evil, I start talking about if the person is even human. Hey... they dehumanize plenty of people. Let them feel that horror a little bit.)
See, the right has been stealing our words and deliberately twisting them. See.. theory as in scientific theory vs. what the average magical creation story "theory". So when a white guy gets hired, just say "It's good to see affirmative action working out for him." Or.. I see that he's the new DEI hire.
Never take them seriously. Show the world how much of a joke they are. Humiliate them. Bully them. Troll them. It may not be nice but who said that nice always works. I match the energy. Nice gets nice. Mean gets mean. Cruel gets cruel.
Every time I hear someone accuse someone else of being woke, that person has no real argument
It's code for "You think that you're enlightened in some way which disadvantages my ignorance, but to you I respond that you are totally a poo head."
[in best gameshow host voice:] But wait! There's more vitriol disguised as questions!
Talking to people who are unconscious is usually a waste of time.
Woke is anything I hate, dislike and/or fear mixed with a little anti intellectualism
I would object on the "little" part.
@@vertigo4236 With this caller I would have to agree
@@vertigo4236same
My favorite example of this is the woman who literally wrote the book on anti-woke was asked in an interview to define what woke was and she fumbled and was unable to. Really drives it home how popular words in the conservo-sphere are just emotional triggers without any real meaning.
@@Nymaz
I have to ask... What is a woman?
Calling someone "woke" = conservative airhead heard something that confuses them.
I have responded with a thoughtful explanation “I like the word ‘woke’ because it reminds me that over the last 6 decades I’ve ‘woken up’ to the realities of other people’s lived experiences, including how badly women have suffered and how hard we had to fight for equality. It just feels like waking up so the word works for me. But if someone comes up with a better description I’m open to it.”
@@jo-p5 I find that 'woke' is about recognizing social injustice and demonstrating a willingness to do something to correct that disparity. So, a similar view.
The changing of seasons confused them.

@@dr.fjoer_the_crazy_scienti5841 that is about the most perfect statement
*it's been years and we still have no clue what conservatives mean when they say "woke"*
They mean whatever gets them riled up.
Woke isn anything the right don't agree with.
Ironically the term woke does have a definition, and it has to do with people who are knowledgeable and aware of the deeper complexities and nuance of political topics, in particular the history and complex components of things like racism and discrimination.
You used to call yourself 'woke' because you are essentially awoken, or aware of the complex truths of an issue.
Evidently it's now a bad thing to understand something beyond the surface level analysis. Ignorance is what smart people do.
@@CrawfishDeluxe I totally agree, which is why I added the "conservative" clarification. They keep tossing that around with seemingly no idea what it actually means
I'm glad I'm not the only one. I have been trying to get a definition of WOKE for a while now. It seems like each one has his own definition.
They always find a way to bring it back around to trans people smh. How dare people want to be happy, regardless if they can naturally conceive a child or not. And not realizing they're dehumanizing those who are infertile in the process
We're the Emanuel Goldstein du jour.
They are vile and these hateful statements are disgusting
They cant get the girldick out of their head
Or those who choose to remove the body parts needed for reproduction. I had my uterus and cervix removed 8 weeks ago but that didn't stop me from being a woman. Your reproductive organs don't determine your gender. I dont know why it always comes down to reproduction with these weirdos. It's so bizarre
Because they don’t have to be confronted with the ridiculousness of their ideas if they can distract us with the latest boogie man.
“Didn’t Jesus command you to love everyone? Why is your voice dripping with contempt for your fellow human?”
These guys are a great team.
Nice to see hosts working together so effortlessly and effectively to utterly dismantle a caller then sweep away the little pieces without a raised voice or insult.
Whenever these dopes find themselves getting cornered, they abruptly change the topic and/or introduce a non sequitor.
Exactly, these calls usually end the same way
Host: Prove your god is real
Caller: Prove he's not real!
Host: the burden of proof is on you!
Caller: WHAT ABOUT TRANS PEOPLE!!!!
Still, it's on the hosts to keep the conversation from devolving into discussions of "woke"
It's better to be woke, than asleep all the time.
Or more typically they emotionally fall back on their prejudices as their anger reveals the real source of their call. They just want to yell about gay and trans people and "own the libs."
@@bobbybecker3572 It didn't "devolve." The nut drove it there and wouldn't stop. Thus the relatively short episode.
If you stop talking about your imaginary friend we won’t have to tell you he is your imaginary friend 🤷🏽♂️🤓

Stop trying to get us to believe in your imaginary friend...Darn Christians🤢🤮
Exactly, but what are the odds that they stop doing that because they care about how we feel ?
Some theists are nice people until they find out you are an atheist, & then they open their mouths. Sometimes what follows is idiotic rambling that sounds like this caller.
What leads you to conclude that gods imaginary?
@ well if the christian god is not imaginary you should have no trouble proving him to exist.
It hasn't slipped my attention that Christians will often say, "Jesus loves you," or some variant as a way to insultingly exit an argument they're losing.
I find it ironic that one symbol they use is the crucifix, as if Jesus, if he existed, was the only person to ever be crucified. It was a common method of execution. See the movie Spartacus and the end of it for example. Also, hands were not nailed through the palms as the tissue would be torn away by the weight of the body so when they show stigmata in the palms that would also be fake. Nails, if used at all, were driven through the wrist. Most were just tied and left to die from the weight of the body on the lungs and heart.
"jesus loves you" is the first line in the Book of Condescension
ROTFLMAO, I got thrown off twitter for my reply to some christians
They knew I was an atheist, so they ganged up and flooded by account with "we will pray for you", and I just told them I am an atheist, its meaningless so please stop, so MORE of them piled on. So then I replied "Well I am going to masturbate for you, because that way we will actually know something happened and one person was made happier for it"...BOOM account closed.
"Nice soul ya got there buddy" says jeebus, "be a shame if something happened to it".
"Atheists are statistically smarter than Theists on average". Jay comes in and proves the point. Good work Jay. And his last statement clearly shows he is a conspiracy theorist. So lets add delusional to the list while we are at it.
Goodness forbid the "woke stuff" come and get me
Jesus: Let me in!
Person: Why?
Jesus: So I can save you!
Person: Save me from what?
Jesus: From what I'm going to do to you if you don't let me in!

Because it is a very important, fundamental truth.
Uncle Jay isn't allowed at family dinners anymore.
I am sure this guy never cared about women's sports ever until he was told to be upset.
I disagree, I am sure help watch a lot of female sports because of the how sexualisation of the permissible clothing they wear is. Womens volleyball is a great example, the MUST wear clothing that covers a MAXIMUM about of their body. They are probably upset that they don't know if their sexual desires are towards someone transgender or not.
This guy just wanted to come on to argue politics, which has nothing to do with atheism.
99% of things Christians whine and rant about has nothing to do with atheism.
Yeah, but the ACA also claims to be humanist, so they're going to get that.
If Jay is an example of someone who isn't 'woke,' then I'm happy to be woke. He was a hateful person desperate to hold onto his worldview as society leaves him behind.
Platos cave
Which god?
For every "one" atheist program available across the USA, there are about 500 Christian programs available & other religions. That's about the ratio......
And entire TV channels.
Christianity is such a weak message that it has to be parroted by 500 programs until people give in to its inanity through sheer overexposure and repetition, whereas atheism is such a strong message that only one outlet here and there is required for atheism to thrive.
Woke = the state of being aware of things.
We can't live on beliefs we need truth and proof

As an atheist, I don't threaten people with hell, or promise them heaven. I don't accuse people of breaking divine laws that are indistinguishable from fiction.

A woman is an adult human person that has a desire to be in accordance with a particular set of Social and cultural norms that are typically associated with a female sex
I would argue it also have to include the set of rites of that society.
Many societies mark the first period as the time a girl became a woman. So technically someone who has never had a period would never be a woman.

@@arctictruck10 I am not religious but this is just wrong. a woman is an adult female human being. a small percentage of people will experience gender dysphoria and transition to appear like the opposite sex. its a medical condition. they dont become that sex by doing so.
Please stop changing defintions. i support trans people but a woman is a woman a trans woman is a trans woman theres nothing wrong with that. acknowledging the truth helps you become more understood.
also this makes it sound like gender is a social construct and anyone can say im a woman and theyll be a woman. if gender was a social construct, gender dysphoria wouldn't be a thing, and any man can say im a woman without transitioning and then theyd enter women spaces etc. youre not helping trans people like this.
@@ilovecatsandsoup I have to correct you on one thing: "medical condition" usually means illness. Being trans, even though it can cause gender dysphoria, isn't an illness per se (even if it can cause symptoms that may be illnesses, mostly mental ones). In any case gender dysphoria by itself can be considered a mental illness/issue if it goes untreated, and is severe.
People who knock on my door on weekends are complaining that I have a different opinion? Seriously?
Being seen and being heard is far more important than being sweet or polite. I never miss an opportunity to at least ask street preachers, JWs..."How's your imaginary friend today?"
I got regular visits from JWs. Once two women came - maybe mother and daughter. Always fun to argue. In the end I asked the young one
"What is for you the most compelling argument for the existence of God?"
"The prophecies that were fulfilled by Jesus!"
"Hmm - you are aware that the Bible was written down way later, by experts of the Old Testament. Is it not possible that these people knew of all the prophecies that God has to fulfill, and might have adjusted the story a bit? After all, when they were writing the gospels, they were decades later and hundreds of miles away, in a time you had to walk to get somewhere else. None of those that later read the gospels had ever talked with an eye witness or knew the region where it all should have taken place".
In my memory she stared at me with open mouth, and the older woman grabbed her and led her away.
And since then, I had no visits from JWs anymore.
The caller seems to want to hate more than learn, let alone be kind...then, in a few short years we'll be dead.
Atheists aren't telling, they're asking those who claim God exists to prove it.
I Dont believe that.... To them means the same thing as .... I believe that IS NOT TRUE. Its a nuance in language that they just cant comprehend because they have been primed that way
If you take "Because God said!" off the table, a lot of issues do tend to shift leftward. I don't see that as a problem, but then, I'm a way-leftist myself.
heh. right? i wonder if someone has made some sort of rigorous study and essay on the grounding of reality with a lefty bias...
***And there is no Hell!! Because a SOUL DOES NOT HAVE NERVE ENDINGS!! How can you feel eternal pain when you dont have nerve endings?? 🤔🤔
I've wondered about that. Do theists believe that everyone floats around like a ghost in heaven and hell or do they believe you get a new body?
Either way, how old do you look and do you have to stay with that look/age for eternity?
it's a spiritual pain .../s

9:12 woke means to be aware of the injustices and prejudices in society and to care about changing them
Why wouldn’t a person be alert to racial prejudice and discrimination? That’s what “woke” is!
It's also just kinda not hating women or the trans/gay community, or not willfully pandering to all things Christian.

"Do theists vote for people who want to force atheists to live by their own alleged religious precepts?"
I’m atheist and I don’t tell people their god isn’t real, I just don’t believe it is because I haven’t seen any evidence to support that hypothesis.
Read the Bible, learn about reality, there’s lots of evidence to show that god concept isn’t real.
"Woke" has been so distorted it just means tell me what you believe, and if I don't agree, it's bad.
That's what you think, but that isn't the case.
I think the simplest definition of "woke" is "actually giving a shit about people who may not be like you". Which, yes, I daresay Jay thinks is a very bad thing.
It has shifted its meaning to a degree because of a particular group of idiots who claim to be 'woke', and spout such nonsense as all whites are inherently racist, all men are inherently violent, and human reproductive biology is a social construct. And if you push back on that then apparently you're a hateful bigot. So yeah when I use that word I mean it in a derogatory way, and I mean those types. I'm far left btw and not religious.
Right, it’s a trigger word to know this person has no clue and just is full of hate.

Yup, I didn't know my older sister was an atheist until relatively recently, even though we've both been atheists for decades.
Why is being “woke” as a shortened for of Awake be a bad thing. The opposite is being left in the dark.

I would encourage you guys to research where woke come from. It doesn't mean what these conservatives Christians thinks it is. In a nut shell from what I am upstanding 30 or40 years ago ONE MAN said we all need to stay woke to what's going on!!! From your scool boards to your local to your state and federal governments are doing. It has nothing to do with ones lifestyle. It just means PAY ATTENTION!!!! Please look up the origin of term. Thank you guys I am so glad you are here!!
I love the "slept" callers. So convinced in crying about things that just don't matter.
An atheist does not ring om peoples doors and want to talk about no god. 😉
Hi, atheist here:
I literally never mention that I don't believe in god until a Christian brings it up. 100% rate, they try to Jesus me up and I say "No, thanks; I'm an atheist".
eh. if a stranger theist got that far with me, i'd say i worshiped satan and eat children. just to fuck with them.
I probably only say it a couple of times a week...
I have no idea how you manage to remain kind and polite with callers like this.
I'm sure the guy is very interested in women's volleyball, and not just reading some right-wing stuff. Should've asked him to name a single volleyball player.
"WOKE" simply means to be aware. My goodness why are folks making that word a bad thing?. It just means to open your eyes. I'm an atheist by the way. 😂 I'm wide awake. 😂
racists, misogynists and homobophes are naturally going to be opposed to 'woke'. any person who decries 'woke' has discolosed to us that they are either racist, misogyinst, homophobic, or all (and likely science deniers, as well, ironically, since we wouldn't know about their thoughts without the advent of computers and information technololgy)
It means specifically awareness of and opposition to unfair discrimination like racism.
The caller here was "woke" if all it means is awake as opposed to unconscious.
"'WOKE' simply means to be aware."
In the literal sense, yes. Not in this case, however. Context matters.
You do realize you challenged this guy to read a book, right?
WHY? We like truth.
forest: "you sound like a delightful person". = christians: "jesus loves you"

I don't know why it's taken this long for me to wonder, why don't you start every call by asking the caller what they believe atheism to be?
