[irrelig]For the final segment discussing Kent Hovind’s paradigm-changing doctoral dissertation, we have brought on professional Hovindologist Matt Wakefield. Matt is an old friend of mine (going back to high school) who was actually one of our first guest interviews, but unfortunately the recorded footage somehow got corrupted (or I never pressed the record button). So here it is: chapter 4 of Hovind’s masterpiece on the nature of time.

[irrelig]Author and atheist Ray Garton comes onto the show to discuss his involvement in the “Haunting in Connecticut” drama, as well as his personal experiences with Ed and Lorraine Warren and the Snedekers. Along the way we touch on such heady topics as atheist vs biblical morality, selling out, the Ten Commandments, and why all demons have a predilection for anal rape.

Also, Skunk Dicks.

[irrelig]”And the LORD was with Judah; and he drave out the inhabitants of the mountain; but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.” — Judges 1:19

In this episode, Eli from Chariots of Iron braves our probing questions for a deep, incisive discussion between probably the two best atheist podcasts in the known universe. Miss it and be square.

[irrelig]So, apparently the debate has been continuing on the Evidence 4 Faith show without us. In this episode, we take the time to carefully but respectfully respond to the recent E4F segments that continue to analyze what they should have said but didn’t while the debate was actually happening.

It’s really all about respect, you know.

[irrelig]Finally we get to Chuck’s research on Judaism, focusing on the inter-Testamental period. Ever wonder what happened between the Old and the New Testaments? Well too bad, we’re telling you anyway. We discuss events from the Ptolemaic reign through the Seleucids, the Hasmonean independence, Roman rule, and what happened to lead up to the destruction of the second Jewish Temple and the disastrous Bar Kochba Rebellion.

That + iTunes reviews + Skunk dicks is episode 92.

[irrelig]Chuck’s Sources: “Atheism Was Not the Cause of the Holocaust,” by Hector Avalos, PhD; Chapter 13 of The Christian Delusion, and Fighting Words: A Toolkit for Combating the Religious Right by Robin Morgan
Leighton’s Sources: See Hitler Run: Run, Hitler, Run!, Wikipedia

In his podcast we answer the Christian charge that Hitler was an atheist, and that Nazism and the Holocaust were inevitable results of Darwin’s theories. We discuss Dinesh D’Souza, Richard Weikart, Pope Innocent III, and Martin Luther, father of the Protestant Reformation and the original Nazi.

All that and some more skunk dickishness in episode 91.
