    17:14 Max (he/him) - Theist | Caller says he used to be an atheist, but that now he claims that the Christian god exists because "anything exists at all."
    52:19 John (he/him) - Theist | Another Caller that says he used to be an atheist but that he had "some experiences as an atheist" that caused him to "accept" god, such as "seeing four-leaf clovers."
    1:31:58 Jason (none given) - Theist | So Caller claims that "an intelligent designer" exists, not only that Jason also claims this god is the Christian one. Jason claims that this god exists, AND that Jason has proof of it, claiming Jason's proof is "the finely-tuned creation that we have" and, you guessed it, the bible.
    1:59:16 Eric (he/him) - Atheist | Caller's family are Jehova's Witnesses, and he's gay and an atheist, so he wants to live a truthful life to who he is but wonders if he should come out to his family. [All of my love to Caller, I feel you

    Ok, Jason, I can be cool with your outlandish beliefs, but what I can NOT tolerate is your gross misunderstanding of the Chili Peppers. “Space may be the final frontier, but it’s made in a Hollywood basement” refers to the TV show “Star Trek”. “Space, the final frontier…” is the first line of its opening credits. Anthony is absolutely NOT trying to say the moon landing was fake or anything of the sort. He’s talking about Star Trek… a fictional show.

      Yes!! Plus memories from our childhood are often nostalgic & maybe conforting. He seemed to have warm feelings about being Irish, his old church, & likely he felt protected as a child. That feeling of protection can make many people hope theres a loving god. So a pattern-seeking Irish guy with a christian childhood finds 4-leaf clovers. Not at all convincing. But nonetheless it reminds him of feelings one may recall from being young & (hopefully) safe.

      I like the Daniel book because in chapter 11 (I think) there’s a story of these two dudes who each plan to rape a women taking a bath after they both stretched and said to each other, “uh I’m going home”. Then they caught each other watching her and they told her, “if you scream we will tell everyone we caught you banging the gardener.” She screamed and was about to be put to death when Dan spoke up and said, “wait this isn’t adding up?” He was praised as being so smart and obviously sent by god.
      Actually Dan 11 might be the dragon statue slaying story where the king put the priest their wives and children to death. In chapter 13 the king put Dan in a lions den for causing him trouble and lucky for Dan. God had an angel airlift some rando cook “by the hair on his head” to feed Danny Boy.
      The king stoped by a week later to have a cry and was still alive.

      It's because they were simply atheists, not skeptics.

      @@atticmuse3749 I guess I get what you're saying. There was a point when I was a young adult when I called myself an atheist, but really I was just anti-Christian (and basically all the Abrahamics). I was still very into woo nonsense, and by extension allowed for the possibility that the Hindu gods and goddesses were somehow real, or that maybe the idea of gods from Western thought was overblown and impossible.
      So even though I would tell people "I'm an atheist," I clearly didn't know what it really meant. Rejecting the religion of my upbringing and cultural origins wasn't actually atheism, it was just anti-Western-relgions.

    Regarding John's call: I got married to a woman I'd only just met back in 2016, because we found all these "synchronicities" around where we were in our lives, how we met, why we didn't meet the previous year when I last travelled to their city and met other friends of theirs, etc. It was a wild ride driven by belief in true love, and it ended with me no longer believing in true love and ultimately not leaving room for anything mystical or spiritual at all. It felt amazing to believe that fate brought us together, but it wasn't real and it led to both of us giving WAY too much credence to what amounted to coincidence and making some really bad decisions.
