Hey folks! For those that have been keeping track, we posted our latest episode for the weekend!

Our latest episode of skepticality, we talk with Tom Flynn editor of Free Inquiry magazine.
We have a lively discussion on Secularism and how it applies to the current political climate of today.

Thanks for listening, as always we'd love your feedback... give us a call, we'd love to get some messages from the SFN folks on the show!
We should be back from a party on Sunday in time to see some of you in the chat.

Cool!
Though I've found some fundy who sure as hell doesn't like your show, but then before you read this brainless idiot's rant, you should note what he has to say about other things!
here and here
If you're ticking off this guy, you're doing something right!
Ironically, this same guy said to me, when I told him that he's gotten two postings in Fundies Say the Darndest Things:
quote: Great, I thought I only had one. And they misquoted that too boot. You are aware most Christians wear being included in a list like that as a badge of honour. Being singled out for abuse by cretins is hardly an insult.
I replied to him, saying that the skepticality crew likely shares his opinion on that.
(In "Locker Room") One has to be registered to see and post there, unfortunately.
quote: Freethinkers ?#$%@^&*! Grade: Ungraded
Ok just to set this up at the start and get it out of the way.
Yes this is broad brushing people
Yes this is a rant.
[rant] I just finished listening to Episode 8 of the Skepticality Pod Cast, I normally quite enjoy the show, but I was utterly disappointed by it. The hosts demonstrated a complete lack of understanding of christian beliefs and the guest they had on was a moron with a similar utter lack of comprehension.
I think these people utterly earn the title free thinker, as hopefully nobody would be stupid enough to think such "thoughts" (aka moronic ill informed ramblings) are worth even a fraction of a penny. [/rant]
Ok, I feel better now.
Ok I admit I am mostly annoyed because I had come to think that they may not be run of the mill brain dead village atheists. However I wont be making that mistake in future.

Man, it's depressing the bigotry they have, isn't it?

What brought that on? this. Original posting here.
Another example of this guy's lunacy here. |

Yea,
He came to our forums and I had some fun with him!
I always find it funny when people say that folks 'broad brush' Christians, when all their agendas are broad brush based... always confuses me a little.
What is even more interesting is that he liked the show until... he had an issue with the fact we didn't believe in his one sacred cow?
<sigh>
Our new show is up now though. |

Well, I'll give jason this much: he insults people to their face as well as behind their backs.
I love that because of ONE episode that pissed him off, he's broad-brushing you guys and totally writing you off as more "village athiests"!
Sadly, he's just as much of a jackass on the Theology Web forums, where he's a moderator.
Keep it up. |

Yeah, sigh… We get that too. It mostly shows up in the mail we get. "Wonderful site, but you blew it on (insert fondly held belief by the letter writer).

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.
Why not question something for a change?
