The Tall Friendly Atheist Dad Podcast

In a new series inspired by Prof. Jordan B. Peterson's disastrous series of "debates" on the YouTube show "Surrounded", I will go over some points that need responding to, how the Surroundees could have improved, and why I think Peterson's appearance on this show was a self-inflicted disaster. –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– For more thought-provoking content, head over...

There's Christian apologetics. There's bad Christian apologetics. And then there's J. Warner Wallace, former cold-case police detective turned Christian propagandist and salesman. In this episode, James The Skeptical Ghost Heathen and I try keep our composure as we discuss Wallace's slick video where he tries to say Jesus revolutionised education. And if there's ever an apologi...

Well, when I sat down and thought about it, this was the most appropriate title I could think of. Because why else would you release a video titled " They KEEP Spreading This Lie About the Bible & Getting Away with It " which is just a rant that no-one takes this "Observational/Historical Science" duality seriously? Original video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTiMiWqipik Anyway, enjoy if y...

Wouldn't you know it? The podcast I started after I got bored and then really gave me something to do right around the time of COVID lockdowns has finally hit triple-digits! And to celebrate, I have a wide-ranging chat with James, The Skeptical Ghost Heathen where we cover topics such as: - Trump tarrifs - How we reached our respective personas - Deconversion from Christianity and our respecti...

So, the YouTube channel ChristRighteous Ministries put out a video stating that atheists actually know that God exists. Now, he didn't make an argument any stronger than "atheists intuitively know that God exists" and "you need God to argue against God" - in other words, presuppositional apologetics! Many thanks to Deborah Grace and Victim Of Illusion for the intro! Here&#3...

Hey, look! Two episodes in one year! I'm on a roll... Anyway, in this episode, I give my thoughts about a short clip from Cross Examined where Alisa Childers seemingly puffs up Frank Turek's ego while bemoaning how she felt guilty for not being able to stop her friend from leaving the faith.

Some time back, Wes Huff and Billy Carson had a debate about the nature of the Old and New Testaments where Billy Carson attempts to argue that Jesus wasn't crucified. Old mate Waddo You Meme presented a fairly uncomplimentary take on the matter, a take I mostly agree with, and I was left thinking - this is not how you attack Christianity . Original video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SlWF...

It's react-ception ! Love him or hate him, you'll never die wondering what Ben Shapiro of The Daily Wire thinks on a variety of topics. In this episode, I react to Ben reacting to really bad (and a couple of good) takes on religion.

Anyone who has been been involved in the Christian-atheist rumblings on Twitter for any amount of time may be familiar with the name SJ Thomason.  By trade, SJ Thomason is a professor of business administration with a PhD in the field.  However, SJ Thomason is also a Christian apologist, and the reason I juxtapose the two is that Christian apologetics is this very unique cultural phenomenon in whi...

In this episode of " The Tall Friendly Atheist Dad Podcast ", I respond to the video taking over atheist YouTube - Redeemed Zoomer’s ALL atheist arguments answered in 10 minutes. I’ve seen Prophet Of God respond, I’ve seen Matt Dillahunty respond, so I thought I may as well get on in the action and give my own take on what is, frankly, an excellent demonstration of the power of uncritica...

In a special non-religious discussion, Chris from the Hereticals YouTube channel joins me to discuss the history of conflict in the land that is currently Israel and gives us his take on what will lead to peace in the region. It does get a little bit sweary and a tad controversial...but have we given you a new perspective? Chris can be found here: https://twitter.com/HereticalsChris Hereticals can...

Episode 92 is a short one, and probably no better than my other episodes. Justin Brierly decided to explain why the virgin birth of Jesus isn't a fairytale (his words, not mine): 1. Matthew and Luke documented it, and Luke in particular states he interviewed eyewitnesses. 2. The pre-marital conception of Jesus wasn't made up because it would have been embarasssing. 3. Justin's idea of...

In this epsiode, I will play you the straight lift of myself, YouTube atheist superstar Emma Thorne and general girl-about-town Phoebe J. Rose discussing wife-beating, prostitute-using, COVID-denying multi-level marketing preacher Pasquale 'Pat' Mesiti. It made for an interesting chat, I'll tell you that much!

Hey! Look! It's episode 90 of a podcast that started as a lousy idea and has steadily gone downhill since! In this episode, I answer "10 Questions Atheists Can't Answer". I got these from an episode of The Atheist Experience , so feel free to compare my answers to theirs! Original video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCvpworN7JA 1. Do you really believe that science is the onl...

In this impromptu episode, Damo and his Let's Save The Governor-General co-panelist Phoebe J. Rose go through a pamphlet that was dropped in my letterbox. We didn't plan, and we love talking - sorry if this episode is somewhat disorganised. Hey NJ - great to see you up and kicking :) It is official - Phoebe is hilarious, and you can find her here: Twitter YouTube Others –––––––––––––––––––...

Some time back, Justin Peters of Justin Peters Ministries and Grace To You gave a presentation on the Charismatic strand of Protestant Christianity. These are my thoughts.

In this long-awaited episode of your favourite podcast that has been blocked by Lee Strobel on Twitter, I give my thoughts to a video produced by the YouTube channel TreasureChrist (but formerly known as ReformedWiki 2.0 ) who think that apostates such as Marty Sampson, Abraham Piper, myself and others are making a big mistake! Have I (and others) made a big mistake? Find out! Original video: http...

Some time ago, eminent Christian philosopher Dr. William Lane Craig released a video which can be summarised as a brief welcome to people who just converted to Christianity. Now, my opinion of Dr. Craig is admittedly low at the best of times, but even with giving him the benefit of the doubt, I really can't help but think that he's really welcoming you into a cult.

Here's an oldie but not so goodie from Ray Comfort and his merry gang…5 or so years ago, Living Waters put out a video titled "Ten of the Top Scientific Facts in the Bible". Now, when I was a Creationist, I both evangelised using these and heard sermons being preached about these "facts" - and in case you were never a Creationist, the mentality behind this list is that the Bible contains nuggets o...

In this episode of The Tall Friendly Atheist Dad Podcast , I respond to a video produced by the YouTube channel " Never Ashamed Again " and his "Warning to all atheists". Will I be warned?
