    WHAT IS TALK HEATHEN?
    Talk Heathen is a weekly call-in television show in Austin, Texas geared toward long-form and on-going dialogue with theists & atheists about religion, theism, & secularism. Talk Heathen is produced by the Atheist Community of Austin.
    Talk Heathen is filmed in front of a live studio audience every week at the Freethought Library of the Atheist Community of Austin.
    The Atheist Community of Austin is organized as a nonprofit educational corporation to develop & support the atheist community, to provide opportunities for socializing & friendship, to promote secular viewpoints, to encourage positive atheist culture, to defend the first amendment principle of government-religion separation, to oppose discrimination against atheists & 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.

He said he would do the Ehrman side by side comparison of the synoptic gospel stories, but has since retracted that statement and said he has talked to his pastor and he couldn’t remember what his pastor had said, but that everything was ok and not to worry about it 😂 so much for red-pilling that m’fer

    There are five accounts of the myth of Jason and the Argonauts (Apollonius, Pseudo-Apollodorus, Valerius, Hyginus & the Orphic Argonautica). Does that make the quest for the Golden Fleece true?

    He can’t admit the gospels are anonymous because it’s against the rules ( in his mind )
    The names on the gospel’s just appear ( poof ) In much later copies but do not appear on early copies.
    He’s been exposed to this information he quotes Bart Ehrman ( in some of his calls ) who’s seen the copies I just mentioned. Theistic biblical scholars just say those names are attributed to tradition. And when pressed fully admit we don’t know who wrote them.
    So this detective case for the Bible he’s doing is impossible and no atheist would care. So he might as well talk to himself, at home with a script for both sides 🤷‍♂️

      The fact that you cannot, or will not, accept that any of the stuff you droned on about couldn't happen without an invisible sky daddy, for which there is not the slightest demonstrable shred of evidence, does not make it one millimeter closer to being in fact, true.

      1 - Nobody says “Nothing” - all the matter & energy in the universe was condensed in a single dense point, which suddenly expanded.
      We cannot observe anything before the Planck Time, so we have no idea what was “before” the expansion or what caused it.
      2 - The Miller-Urey experiments & multiple more recent studies show that Abiogenesis is at least a Possible mechanism for Life to arise from non-living material.
      Also, a Single Cell is “simple” when compared to all multicellular life.
      3 - There’s absolutely NOTHING “digital” about DNA.
      It’s a Polymer molecule made up of 4 nucleotides.
      The only reason we now say it is ANALAGOUS to a “code” is because Humans figured out what those 4 different bases are & labelled them A, T, G & C.
      We then later realised that those 4 bases did different things depending on the order they were arranged within the molecule.
      You seem to be missing the main issue though.
      You may not believe those things can happen Naturally, but if you want to say “God did it” - you would need to;
      1 - Demonstrate that a God actually exists.
      2 - Demonstrate that it actually has the ability to do any of those things.

Horns knocking down stone walls. Samson has the strength of ten men and then has that robbed from him because of a haircut? Lot's wife instantly being turned into salt? All the dead in Jerusalem climbing out of their graves and walking the streets? These are bat crap crazy stories with not a shred of evidence proving any of it.
