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 a 501(c)(3) educational non-profit organization based in Austin, Texas. The Atheist Community of Austin is dedicated to promoting atheism, critical thinking, secular humanism, and the separation of religion and government.
We define atheism as the lack of belief in gods. This definition also encompasses what most people call agnosticism.

@@tonyclements1147 Well, he's speaking the truth so no harm in that. In actuality, Christians should stop talking about their god, cuz it's getting tiresome and they can't even prove it.
Well said
And 14 years later, believers keep asking the same questions… 🤦♀️
Why are Atheists so ignorant? Yeah we ask that a lot.
That is an interesting point, after 2,000 years in existence, you would think they have this nailed down. Doctrines would be consistent among all denominations. Christian behavior would be consistent.
@Tired-hm4tw Only Jesus Christ/God rose from the dead to prove his power over death. No one ever has or can make that claim and prove it. There were plenty of witnesses who walked and talked with Christ after his resurrection. That's not religion. That is God/Jesus Christ saying I love you and offer you hope, a place where there will be no more sickness, no more pain, no more sorrow, no more death. Like it was in the beginning before sin entered the picture. Read you bible; it's all in there.
This is what the Holy Spirit inspired Peter to write in his second letter.
But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
Just like Kent Hovind who still spreads the same strawman claims about evolution for much longer. Every, single, time. He was corrected countless times and he just doesn't care. He will tell you what you believe...
It's like this guy has never heard a single argument against his worldview. He's clearly been living under a rock.

No. Hes been living in America. Up until a couple of years ago over 90% of the population was religious of some sort. If everyone u ever meet and are around belive the same thing u do, there is no need to question it. And if u couple that with a school system that dont teach critical thinking or skepticism, and in some states teach creationism as FACT and not evolution in 2024, its not that strange :)
It's not that he's never heard a counter-argument, it's just that he hasn't listened to one.

@@EnthusiasticTent-xt8fhYou don't start with the conclusion to try and "prove" your claims.
@@EnthusiasticTent-xt8fhsure it can if you don't have a reason, and you havent given any. So we can just say "god doesn't happen to be real". This gets us as far as kindergarten level argumentation.
@EnthusiasticTent-xt8fh More claims. Zero evidence. I'm sure you could explain to a kindergartener your "knowledge" of physics and the cosmos. Sagan would have been impressed, lol.
Nope. I ask MANY scientific questions as a believer. From subjects ranging from Galois Theory to optics to Special Relativity. Just because I believe God made something doesn't in any way mean I'm not curious as to how it might be simplified into understandable bits. Isaac Newton makes this very clear in his writings as well. His belief did not in hinder his curiosity in any way. That's how he was able to unify his gravitational assumption with Kepler's observations.
It appears when you believe in this god of the bible, its fear more then love that
drives your stupidity in fear of hell, maybe.
A search for truth led me to Atheism. A Christian's search for truth leads them to circular arguments, and excuses for why they have to keep believing.

The gnostics have a very simple explanation for all this...
As a slaphead, that's my favourite bible story!
"Rejection" vs "Non-acceptance" parallels the legal conclusions of "innocent" vs "not-guilty". The burden is on the claimant to prove their claim, not on the defendant to disprove the claim. Thus, atheism is not itself a claim, nor does not innately reject the theist claim, but rather simply does not accept as true the theist claim being put forward.
More state delusion nonsense. The State fiction is about as real as The Bible fiction
It always boils down to the same issue: If you NEED excuses to justify something... that thing has already failed.
If I'm given an instruction manual, *but*: I *need* 29 scholars to explain *how* to read the manual... it's a sheet manual.
Like, "Oh, no: You HAVE to remove every third verb on pages that are divisible by five. And you *must* run it in google translate from english to italian, then into spanish, then back to english, as otherwise you'll get the wrong assembling instructions. And then: You can't trust *anything* on page 6. Except the number of bolts that are used later for page 8."
What utterly useless muppet would give this the clear as the perfect instruction manual, if it can *never* be used at face value?
Yep, the Bible is what we can call "clear as mud" 🤣
Brilliant!

It is difficult to fathom how those who have called into AXP over the years to profess theistic beliefs and defend slavery or other similarly reprehensible aspects of the Bible, might react when they play back their call.

I've got to agree. Those poor theists don't know what they're up against.
Atheism is largely based on logic and history. Atheism is not separate from morality. Morality does not require religion. And philosophy can be separate from religion. Humans can exist without religion .
Monotheists are by definition atheists with regard to other nonexistent gods.
How do believers prove other gods are nonexistent?
Answer: special pleading
Yes, I like that statement, it goes with the “and we atheists just believe in one less god than you monotheists (ie none)”
Bible, duh... They can't understand that atheists do not believe everything in the Bible including the claim of being the word of the only god in town. Truly indoctrinated from birth.
It is impossible to 'know' something that doesn't exist.
True, but in this case, how do you know it does not exist?
@jerrycallender-qm7zr That's a true statement. So is this: I know Jesus Christ and He exists and is present in my life. He made Himself known through John 3 16 - inviting me to know His love and promise. All who want to know Him, can do as well. Draw near to Him and He will draw near to you.

Christians always don't seem aware that alot of atheists used to be Christians and are very knowledgeable of the Bible. Some Christians go to study Theology and come out of it atheist learning that even though the Bible talks of an exodus from Egypt despite that in history that never happened. There was never an exodus from Egypt. There was the Babylon captivity though. Sometime during or after the captivity all other deities the Canaanites worshiped were rejected and only Yahweh was worshiped as supreme. The other deities like Baal and Moloch got demonized in the Bible. Which is why in the Bible other deities are acknowledged to exist when supposedly Yahweh says to not worship any other gods before him.

Hello, puppies and kittens. Always love to see Aron.
"Christians don't know their own god" How can you know anything about that which there is no evidence for?
Stefan: Do you believe in Fairies or unicorns? Why not? Is it because there's no evidence for them? That's the same thing as not meeting a burden of truth. The claim fairies or unicorns exist is not supported by good evidence, ie: it has not met its burden.
Non-belief; ie: atheism, is the default. You have not produced sufficient evidence to believe in god, so we defer belief pending such evidence. That's what atheism is: a deferral of belief. It's not a claim that needs evidence or defense. It's not a doctrine or belief system
Atheism is not based on science. It's based on logic.
As if being totally wrong about everything isn't bad enough, it's, the fact that they won't even admit to themselves they are wrong that is the troubling thing for me here.

Regarding Aron’s statements that Christians or being religious leads to be more immoral: this rings true for me. I’m a recovering alcoholic who had Jesus as my higher power and I was full of angst, depression, and anxiety. As soon as I became an atheist, then a humanist, and then a skeptic, my life is full, I no longer suffer from depression/anxiety, and I’m no longer angry. It’s weird to feel “normal.” Anyways, Exodus 21 does speak of slavery but I didn’t see anything in Exodus 31. The Bible still endorses slavery but I’m just being pedantic.
This is one of the best atheist experience videos ever
I was raised catholic, until I reached the age of reason, which for me was 12yrs old. I figured out it's all about the money. Anyway the catholic church taught us [early 60's] that evolution was their accepted philosophy and they actually had a picture of Darwin in the science lab. It didn't affect their teachings and was woven in seamlessly to their belief system. Mass was all in Latin and incense...oh all the incense....still HATE that smell!
I think I was about six or seven and we were being told that other religions did this and that bad thing and I thought that what they were saying mostly applied equally to the RC church.
Brilliant job as usual by the 2 BEST guys in this vitally important business!!

@@googlespynetworksaid a guy whose Bible is okay with slavery, genocide and enslaving child virgins, wow!
Evolution has jackall to do with whether there is a god or not. It might poke holes in some popular creation myths, but aside from that, it's a red herring and certainly not why I'm an atheist. I'm an atheist because I've yet to hear of, or think of a concept of a god that I could say "I believe that entity exists." Arguing against Evolution in some kind of false dilemma between Evolution or `God,` is absurd.
For a lot of theists it is relevant because they do not want to loose their special species status with a deity injected soul. They are wannabe special beings.
I wish I could articulate my thoughts as well as you 2 do.

Stephan's neurons can't be working properly. Poor bloke.
I have a more fundamental question for bible scholars: What happened to all the trees and plants on the earth during the "flood?" Maybe Noah took them on the Ark and they failed to mention it in the bible. Maybe God temporarily turned them all into aquatic trees and plants? Then what, Noah went around the world replanting all the trees and plants? I guess if you believe the story, you’ll have no problem believing the answers, right?
Noah's Ark surely goes in a top 3 most stupid stories in the Bible. It's so spectacularly flawed it still baffles me people actually believe it.
Noah's flood debunked:
1... Why were the other civilizations around the world that existed before the supposed global flood not impacted by it and have no records of a flood...
2... How did Koala bears and Polar bears, Anteaters and Sloths get to and from their home lands...
3... Where was all the tons of food kept on the Ark...?
4... How did a crew of 8 steer a ship that size all that time?
5... It floated basically a year on the sea, yet it supposedly came to rest only a few miles away ?
6... How is it that there's no ruins of flooded cities and so forth all around the world dating to the exact same time?
7... How did the fresh water fish survive the salt water... How did salt water fish survive all the freshwater influx.
8... How did the animals survive when there was no food for them anywhere on the world after the flood killed all things including grass, plants trees and the game animals they lived on?
9... How did Noah build an Ark out of wood when the first parts would have rotted away by the time he could get to the last parts?
10. Where did Noah keep termites on a wooden Ark?
11. So, out of the 8 people on the Ark, where did oriental and black people come from? Remember, any answer to that involving changes proves evolution...
12. Why did everyone not die out from the incestuous genetic choke point that would have introduced too many defects for the race to survive... (See #11 again)
13. Same with all animals...
14. How did Noah pay for all the food for all the Wood, the animals, the animal food, the nails, food for the crew?
15. Where did the water come from?
16. Where did the water go?
17. How did Noah know how to build a boat in regard to steering, ballast, toilets, bilges etc, when he had no experience...?
18. Why didn't ship building expertise improve AFTER the Ark? But instead was limited for many more hundreds of years ?
19. At a depth, sufficient to flood the highest mountains the air would be so thin that no one on the Ark would have been able to survive, same as on top of Mt Everest now.
20. After saving the sloths, Polar bears, Kangaroo's, Lynx, Koala bears, Anteaters etc, why did know one know of the America's or Australia etc, afterwards... ?
21. Have you ever tried to carve a plank out of a tree trunk using modern tools? Think how long it would take with simple bronze age or copper axes and no power tools. Then think about how many planks it would take to build a boat that size with only a handful of people building it.
23. How did polar animals survive the heat of the middle east?
24. Why didn't glaciers all over the world either melt or float to the surface?
25. Why didn't the ark get sunk by hitting icebergs? (See #24 again)
26. How did he forge all the nails or even have the time to do it even at a nail a minute it would have taken a life time...
27. How did animals with specific breeding habits (Such as monarch Butterflies that can ONLY nest on the Milkweed plant (That is only native to North America)) reproduce and survive...
28. Dinosaurs were not all vegetarian. That is easily seen my the fossils having claws and teeth designed for predatory hunting.
29. How long did it take to gather up animals and their specific foods from all over the world, including Australia, The America's The Philippines, The Arctic, Japan, China and return them to their origins...
30. How is it that no species were wiped out if one half of a breeding pair, died on the Ark... ?
31. Most cultures have experienced some form of flooding, which is probably the root of the myth(s), as to them, just a few miles would be "the whole world". If was a global flood, those cultures would not have e=survived and certainly would not have their own stories relating to it.
32. We are supposed to believe that millions of people drowned around the world because no one other than Noah, owned a boat, not even fishermen or navies or traders...
33. The bronze age ancestors of the vikings built ships that could carry a crew of 50 or more... did they drown too?
34. All the water on Earth would have been salty and unfit for drinking after a global flood.

Would you believe in the existence of a Banana 🍌 Even though it was rotten? God does offer salvation. That's why we love him, because he first loved us. Try actually reading the Bible for once in your life. These things are written about in the new testament. Acts, Romans, Corinthians, 1st John....
How can god be so incompetent in controlling this planet.
He can’t even give christians and muslims the ability to prove he exists.
There are three separate religions, each with multiple different sects, all of whom believe mutually contradictory things but assert with utmost confidence that they're the ones who actually know God.
Forget controlling the world, if this god exists, how is it so bad at communicating the ONE MESSAGE that our understanding of is absolutely vital to its plan?
He's not. Try reading Genesis, genius. You Atheists think you're so smart and you are ignorant of the most basic concepts of the Bible. Read Genisis, Exodus, John, 1st John and Revelation. You are beyond ignorant and if you would actually READ THE BIBLE you wouldn't say such childish things.
Besides all the EGREGIOUS laws in the bible, if any Christian can get past this horrific verse...wow, you have lost your humanity: Deuteronomy 20: 10-18. This is EVIL.
And I'm afraid they didn't really "care" about the boys but focused on the women and girls...🤮
. The Bible is grossly evil because the "god" within is narcissistic, abusive, murderous meglomaniac.
@@lifeinthe80sPlease untwist the verse and explain why this actually makes perfect sense.
@@lifeinthe80s
The zombies in Jerusalem evidence..it’s been close to four days now..why can’t you present it?
@@lifeinthe80s Are you saying that this verse would not sound so horrible if only we knew the context? Or that this one section is bad, but any book of moral teachings is bound to advocate for genocide every now and then?
Faith is the admission that you simply do not know.
Would Jesus Christ be considered a Bastard?
Or is procreation with ones own creation an exemption?
Cheers in advance.
Do you want to come join us on our live stream in a couple of hours? It would be cool to hear your voice.
Smochy, that's a thinker🤔
Going to need more beer to workout that🍻
The bible is clearly obsessed with incest. What difference does it make to use the word 'creator' and not 'parent'?
No but you would be considered an ignoramus. Try reading the 4 Gospels genius. Starting with Mathew. It's well explained unless you are too stupid to read basic English.
Knock, Knock!

There is no hate like Christian love
Sure there is. There is Islamic love, Jewish love, pretty much any monotheistic religious love
I just read this and almost spit up my food at the bar.
Think of all those work skills the slaves gained 🙄
I see what you did there.
Can't really blame people that have lived inside a snow globe forever like Edward Scissorhands and haven't even been allowed to learn anything about the real world. We can only help them understand how the universe really works.
caller is either confused or dishonest. looks like he is getting credits from his church if he sounds ignorant and irrational.
he's brainwashed and indoctrinated. I know so many people like him. It's truly pathetic
It's so weird that christians, or really evangelicals, have this idea that atheism is linked to "believing in" evolution. For the record, my atheism is also unrelated to gravity, germ theory, heliocentrism, or anything else that science has ever or will ever learn.
I think it's because they all pick the parts they like about the christian God, which explains the wide spectrum of different types of Christians as evident in this comment section.
And it doesn't help having different versions of the bible books that are poorly written, also contributes to the variations/denominations.
Interesting enough, Christianity isn't the only religion to experience a diversity of believers within the same theology.
And a good Sunday Morning 🌞 AXP Fans and Theists ❤❤❤
Peace Love Empathy From Australia ✌️🤠👍
@@lifeinthe80s What about God though?
I have no interest in the son of a God.
I only roll with the big boys 💪
Thank God for Atheism! 🙏
Awomen
So your god is a divine turducken..
@@lifeinthe80s
You’re a polytheist then.
They pick the parts they like about the Christian God and STILL end up with hateful bigotry. It says a lot about their beliefs.

Why does Jesus need a Xanax?
God as a word is used as a wide moral compass but the details of the corruption of the text mandates in the Bible are grossly overlooked/ignored.
Hmmm. It seems to me, I may have read the 10 commandments "out of context". Maybe if I studied the Bible more deeply I would realise that "Thou shalt not kill" only applies to people called "Thou" and it's fine for the rest of us. Well stone me!
I find amusing these Christians who claim that they have objective morality. All they have is completely subjective because they can interpret morality in however they want to, and all they are doing is putting a label of "objective morality". None of them have ever been able to explain their moral system.
Aron is a sleeper Klingon..😁
@@tonyclements1147 Kaplah!
I just want to run my fingers thru Aarons long luxurious locks lol. It looks so soft! 😂
God believers NEVER EVER answer questions that prove their religion is fake
What are you blabbing? We don't believe in "religion". That's you projecting. We believe in God. Jesus said true religion is taking care of orphans and widows. So you are just ignorant. You have zero proof to show God doesn't exist. But you don't hold yourself to the same standards you expect from believers in God.
Well, Im glad to see the issue of faith is at the forefront of this video.
And the reason I say that is, because after so many conversations wit theists of all sorts, a few of them quite well versed in debating atheism vs theism, all such conversations have ended rather bluntly when they are on occasion taken to the inevitable end point, and that endpoint is, the theist always ends up having to rely on faith.
PERIOD.
In the end, its all there really is for the religious. I dont care what claims they start out with or end up going through, in the end, all thats left for them is faith.
And in the end, as literally explained here, faith is always the end point for the religious. And thats because its all they have left once everything else is discussed to its endpoint.
I don't think theists understand the correct way to use "That's taken out of context".
You are really stupid to generalize millions of people. What are you 12 years old? The callers on one stupid show don't represent all "Theists". So ignorant.
The mental gymnastics you have to do to say “yeah but…” to the clear endorsement of slavery in the Bible is gold medal worthy,I swear lol
Faith is the same as a thought,you know your thought is there but you cant see it,just like God your faith know's God exist even though you cant see him..Have mercy on those who doubt and question Gods actions..
Where do these callers find these echo chambers to put their wind tunnels in and why do they all use mufflers to speak through?
Echo chamber? Do you read the comment section of this channel? Are you delusional?
@@googlespynetwork I'm not talking about the content of their gobbledegook. I'm talking about the weird sound that makes the listener struggle to understand a word they'te saying. That kind of echo chamber. You know, echoes.
Having faith is having the ability to believe any claim that has zero evidence to support it.
Then ignore, alter and invent as much reality as you feel you have to when encountering anything thar seriously challenges any belief held on faith --just to sustain your indoctrinated belief and then hold that ability to do so as a badge of honor.
Sad to hear someone with my name being so indoctrinated.
It is amazing that it is always that they are OWNing The Truth - and have zero clue what the truth actually is When you OWN it, you don't need to KNOW it.
That is the promise of religion: Follow us, then you have gotten everything from us, you have no open questions anymore.
7:42 such an important argument about believing the dishonest there. Being decieved wrong from a naturalistic perspective. Lie to someone at the rate any holy book does and watch them disbelieve everything you say. Its not just wrong if they say something that's not true, because if they claims to be true, it's morally sickening.
I would think Aaron ra in his psychology would a lot of problems with Jesus Christ demeanor and way of thinking probably I find the funny. Heh heh.
Whoaaaaaa. So cool!
Exodus 20 says nothing about 2 separate laws.
Christians like this dishonest prick, have to make up crap like 2 separate laws, even though it doesn't exists, because these two fine gentleman cornered him with the truth & wouldn't except his excuses & lies & tried to get him to admit, that his god is a immoral thug & he can't stand that thought that his God is immoral, so he has to lie & try & twist his way out of it & instead of giving a straight yes or no answer. I'd tell him where to shove his god, beause the irony is we have two Atheists who are honest, while we have a Christian who is completely dishonest & lives in denial.
Christian apologetics is just one massive cognitive dissonance circle-jerk.
Give ONE example that doesn't include your complete ignorance of Scripture.
Great content guys, but seriously...im sure you guys can afford some professional mics , callers voice sound is even worse
@@Ju_A_B this is from 2010
As a former friend once said, "Jesus died for my sins, so I can do anything I want and still go to heaven".
I find with your friends logic is what if Jesus didn't die for your sins like any other Virgin sacrifice, what was murdered because they perceived them to be a traitor to Rome and teaching a different doctrine of the same religion; therefore that Jesus died for my sins and so I can do whatever I want is a fallacy they tell themselves in order to use their based biases.
In terms of a gotcha, the slavery bit of the Bible is pretty good. That probably won’t change.
That is "gods," not "god." Christians have several gods.
Some Christians do, others don't.
Because consistency! \o/
Oh, you're *the* Desertphile! Thanks for introducing me to the idea of what a meme is before I even knew that word :)
I thought this was filmed in the 1990s.
Every bible believer takes from their book what better fits their actions and intentions, and runs with it. They don't care about actually knowing what it says there.
Theists all know their own God. They did, after all create it themselves in their own mind. It doesn't matter how many religious books are written or how many sermons are preached or lectures given about God....everyone will take what was said/written/communicated and interpret it internally and derive a concept of a god that satisfies their own prejudices/longings/needs/values.
I would say going to heaven is a bit like winning lotto.
Few there be that find it.
If the big guns tag team against the faithful in an argument, they don't have a snowball's chanche in hell...

I think faith in itself is not a bad thing. You cannot know everything 100%. I compare it to a bridge over an abyss you have to use. If the bridge is made of concrete and steel you can have good faith it will carry you. Same for a solid wooden bridge. It starts getting different with e.g. a rotten rope bridge. You might still have faith but the foundation for that is not very good.
Religious faith (relying on a god) is mostly trying to cross the abyss without a bridge at all.
I don't know if evolution is true or not, but if not, it doesn't mean that the biblical creation story is true.
Any claim of fact must stand on its own merit.
Atheism is the default position, until other claims can be substantiated. Religion absolutely bears the burden of proof.
Christians will ignore anything from their holy books that conflicts with their middle-class sensibilities.
Christians have this love affair with Lucifer, The Devil, The Morning Star, The Shining One, The Most Light... But Nowhere in Hebrew is the name of Lucifer attached to the most beloved angel of the Christian god. Satan was not a name, it was a class of angel and they basically did the strong-arm work of that god. Sodom and Gomorrah, pillars of salt, destroying walls, that kind of thing was the responsibility of those angels. That's why "The Devil" has so many names. My aunt was an archaeologist and had the most wonderful academic friends. They made sure I knew how to think. There are a few good translation channels I like but won't list them out of respect. They can be searched for.
Lucifer being inserted into the Christian holy texts was the result of translating a passage into Latin, where the king of Babylon was being addressed. He was addressed as The Shining One and Morning Star. As the monk was translating the text from Hebrew into Latin, that was translated into "Lucifer". But they were not talking about an angel or spiritual adversary, it was a human king. Any other references were taken from the book of Enoch, a book that is in the collected apocrypha. But try to tell people that they're afraid of a king who died thousands of years ago and who has been used to control the Great Unwashed, all this time. I just subscribed to your channel. I do believe in an afterlife and I base that on having experiences I can not explain. But that's for me and is not correct for anyone else. But I do not believe the god that is presented in Christian churches for the purpose of obtaining money through guilt. That jealous, insecure, sexist, rapey (he told certain men to throw their daughters out to be raped), inconsistent, hate-filled god is nowhere close to what I experienced. Why would anyone want to worship a god that's the equivalent of a mean, jealous, spoiled kid who likes killing ants with a magnifying glass?
You have a love affair with stupidity.
Yeah this concept of the moral law and the law of man is based on the concept of the verbal Torah versus The Inspired Torah the verbal Torah is what is called the talmud today. But I've studied both and even in the so-called inspired holy Torah of God God still defends slavery hell even the Apostle Paul supported it
Way to go, guys!
random apologist: "they are not true christians...yes, bible Is the word of god... no, you should study it... If you just read it carefull... " lol!
Any time theists say "you should read carefully" they mean "you should be able to make any, just any damn excuses for any damn thing written there!"
Bible isn't that long actually. If you can read at all, you're able to comprehend that the Only way to distinguish "what we must take literally" from "what was a metaphor" is our contemporary morals and worldviews! Therefore, bible -- like any other holly-molly book out there -- is just a compilation of medieval nonsense.
You can have theists without atheists but you can't have atheists without theists. "a"theist is only about not believing what some other people do believe.
You are believers who don't have evidence of the existence of God or gods. Ancient man began by worshiping an idol, and now worships a new idol called God. God is man-made.
The stupidity in this country is off the scale!
Why does God need so many middle men and apologists ?
