    WHAT IS THE ATHEIST EXPERIENCE?
    The Atheist Experience is a weekly call-in 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.

    For anyone that does not remember, the second caller, Cory, called in years ago and did the exact same thing. He’s the guy who when Matt asked which god, he said it doesn’t matter. When Matt said it does matter, he said “who’s asking the questions, me or you?” Then refused to allow Matt to answer anything because he thought he had the gotcha moment. Matt eventually hung up on him. He was a little punk back then and he’s a little punk now.

      The best test of an argument is to present it to others. Whether Rao's argument fell apart in 3 seconds or 3 years is immaterial, if he knows where and how it failed he can progress in how he considers the situation, regardless of whether he decides to change his approach or his overall position. Discussion should be about understanding someone, not "beating" them.

      ​@DrJames Powers It's clear how much you care about emotion, really comes across in your use of caps :P
      Slavery was immoral *and* it was an accepted legal custom of the time. Owning people *is* detrimental to their well-being because it restricts their actions and generally deprives them of security. In this Biblical example, it was legal to beat your slave as long as they didn't die from it. You couldn't do that to free people. That lack of legal protection is inherently detrimental to their well-being. They were also deprived of the fruits of their labors, and even their children.
      Most of us give up some measure of freedom to earn money for bills, but we have many protected rights and own property. There is a vast gulf between a "wage slave", and an actual slave who owns nothing and may be assaulted with impunity to the verge of death.
      We are animals, but we are not merely animals. We could argue about the mistreatment of certain animals, but I'm sure we agree that mistreating humans is different than mistreating lobster.
      We didn't steal the racist, intolerant, shellfish-averse morality of the Old Testament. People worldwide know that murder, theft, and slavery are immoral. Some people are forced to kill or to steal, but some try to justify slavery for nothing more than greed.

Some dishonest fucks tout these around as if they are actually worth something. As if they have done the requisite work and dedication

    When I was a kid I went to a friend’s church. They spoke in tongues, rolled on the floor and raised their hands in the air and yelled every time the word ‘Jesus’ was mentioned. I was absolutely terrified. I had already watched the movie ‘Bedlam’ and I thought I was in an insane asylum. Later, I began to feel sorry for all the people who were indoctrinated in insane religions. I thought how destructive Christianity is. Even later, when I was in my 30s I had a dear friend who slashed her wrists because of her religion. Teaching religion is child abuse and it destroys people’s minds for life and leads to countless suicides.

It encourages a warped version of 'humility' where you are told not to rely on yourself because you're incompetent in solving problems. When you do solve problems, you're discouraged to acknowledge you did that yourself and encouraged to pretend that the fantastical being guided you and that there was no other way you could have solved the problem because you're incompetent.

      When I read Genesis what I saw more of was a bad idea of gay gang rape in Genesis 19:5 where God destroyed a city. Before being Christian I considered the "feeling" worldview. Negatives that stood out to me personally? Eating babies 2 Kings 6:29, eating dung and drinking urine in Isaiah 36:12 and a woman killing a guy with a hammer and nail in Judges 4:21. I did find the building of an ark more interesting than slaves and when I read the bible it seemed to me as though there was far less of those type of things after Jesus came, died and rose. I found the Bible more of a "bias" revealer and it showed where someone saw bad and how they saw it from reading it. Has Matt gone over these parts of the bible that I mentioned here in other shows? I think after Jesus came, died and rose far less of those stories of the poor behavior of people made it into the new testament. What do you think?

      @@godsservant8969 So, your supposed 'evidence' that a 'god' thing exists, is words in a book. WOW! I'm convinced!! lol Get a grip, Patrick. You don't have evidence of any 'god' nor do you have the degree you claimed. You are a liar fer Cheeses.

      Dude, you are seriously a turd sandwich. I create IDM on ableton with push 2, so yea I know what you’re talking about. But the fact that you so desperately needed to mention that because… I don’t know… you thought it was a “flex”.. is incredibly transparent and pathetic. I could mention a ton of things (played at forest, own a business, wrote 3 books, purple belt in Jiujitsu, blah blah blah) but NO ONE GIVES A SH1T. Start focusing on contentment and not how people view you dude. Yuck

    Rao was the name for god on Krypton. Back in the day, Superman would exclaim 'great, merciful Rao'

      A Light in the Dark I think maybe Kal-El uses ‘Merciful Rao’ like humans would say ‘God bless you/bless you’ after a sneeze. The guy’s fought beings with immense power, I think Kal-El would see the Abrahamic God as a step down from say, Darkseid or the New Gods.

      @A Light in the Dark Ja Rel, Yahweh... Jesus had a more obscure transition in translation. In the Gospel of Smallville, Ja Rel was a bit of a douche, fitting in with the depiction of Yahweh in the bible.

    Does Ryan know that slave is a synonym for servant. Quibbling over what word to use is idiocy. Because servant sounds nicer doesn't mean it doesn't refer to a slave.
