Copy: We begin this episode talking about Jordan Peterson’s concern for how society is weaponizing guilt against boys. Not that anyone but him is actually complaining about it. We move on to a quick look at Nigerian Christians who are calling a Muslim presidential ticket a “declaration on war.” We…
This episode we talk a little more about the splitting of the United Methodist Church which is currently underway because of LGBT issues. This time, the UMC's body voted to prevent churches from splitting away at this time. This makes sense because of the way the UMC is organized. What…
This episode we take a break from the headlines and discuss an email from a listener; with permission, of course. The email was heartbreaking as the listener told us about some of their terrible experiences in churches. Namely, there was a massive betrayal of trust by the pastors in their…
With so many people wondering why churches don’t pay taxes, it is baffling beyond comprehension that organizations like the Family Research Council (not a church by any sensible definition) is able to skip out on their taxes as well. At least churches generally to something church like. Then we talk…
We bring you some fun this episode, as long as your idea of fun is as bent as ours. We talk about D. James Kennedy ministries and how they sued the Southern Poverty Law Center for designating them a hate group. If the shoe fits. We follow that with a…
This episode we talk about Roe v Wade just a little bit more. More to the point, some Christians just need to keep making a big thing of it. And somehow the Mormons AREN’T the most conservative on this point? We pivot to a pastor sentenced to almost 20 years…
In this episode we discuss three articles we found in the feeds. First, we talk about the disingenuous ways some Christians talk about trans folks. Next, we take a few minutes to marvel at the Danish evangelist asylum seeker who is accused of gun running. Last we do a lot…
This episode we continue our experiment with slamming through a bunch of stupid. This episode accidentally follows the theme of Christians trying to take over the world! We have people saying the Church should control the government, more misguided "pro-life" silliness, nationalism from the pulpit, and more. We look forward…
In this episode we race through a bunch of broken things. The theme of this episode is the failures of Christian leaders. An exiled pastor (again), a pastor accused of abuse who sues his accusers, even more abuse scandals, and more. You can probably guess that this one gets us…
This episode we talk about the weirdness that is the Cristian Reformed Church's decision to codify their opposition to the LGBT community in their faith confession. This is absurd for many reasons, but such is the world we live in. This promises to divide the CRC along these lines, and…
Franklin Graham is once again proving that celebrity pastors are the worst. There's no dirty trick or shaming technique Graham won't try to save face.

This episode is a bit of a mixed bag for us. On the one hand, the steps that the SBC has been taking to try to repair themselves is encouraging. However, it also feels like it isn't going far enough, fast enough. We all have to make up our own…
We spend our time this episode talking about the downright idiotic call by Dillon Awes of Stedfast Baptist Church saying that the government should put all LGBT people to death. But don't worry, he says that regular people shouldn't go all vigilante and take matters into their own hands. #angryface…
We unfortunately revisit a church where it seems not only was the pastor a sexual predator, but his son has followed in his footsteps. We rage about the fact that this was not as much of a surprise at it should be. Lastly, we analyze the effects that these kinds…
In this episode we take a look at the strange obsession Christians seem to have with homeschooling. It seems that Kirk Cameron has even done a documentary about he “awakening” that people are having. We discuss some of the problems we have with this phenomenon, namely the insular nature of…
Virginia’s new governor, Glenn Youngkin, has signed a bill into law that strengthens the state’s protections for religious freedom by specifying that “religion” includes outward expressions of faith – and not merely inward belief. How long until this backfires?

This episode we set our sights on Answers In Genesis. According to them, the ONLY rational way to interpret scripture is that humans and dinosaurs lived together. This is some fantastic logic (emphasis on the fantasy). If this sounds absurd to you, don’t worry. You’re just a heathen.
This episode we stare into the vast chasm of absurdity of an Indiana pastor who had the unmitigated gall to confess his adultery to his congregation. Of course he left out that this was with a minor. And his victim was present for this “confession.” You can watch video of…
This episode we shake our heads at the Southern Baptist Conference. They recently released a 288 page report shedding light on over 700 alleged cases of sexual abuse and cover ups. It seems that the SBC has lost it’s way, but maybe this can be a chance to heal. Let’s…
Barna Poll tells us what we already knew... We don't believe that we HAVE to believe every little thing the bible says
Bobbie Houston has an Instagram account and isn't afraid to use it. Using it for good... that's another story.

Scott and Mark talk about an excorcism gone wrong in Californa and how a failure to prioritze (or think rationally) cost this girl her life.
The United Methodist Church had a conservative faction split off over LGBT issues. The fallout of this has started as 20% of their congregations in Florida has opted to leave. It seems some just can’t bring themselves to cordially disagree.

This week, rather than covering two topics, we will talk about the leaked Supreme Court document and its implications for Roe vs Wade. We talk about what this means for Christians, progressive and conservative, as well as just generally get angry at the Church’s lack of effort to meaningfully reduce…
