The Atheist Experience 30.08 with Justin and Jon the Skeptick (@TruthWanted)

In today’s episode of the Atheist Experience, Justin and Jon the Skeptic explore the shrinking "God of the Gaps" and the carnages of evolution! They challenge faith-based morality and the logical hurdles of deism in an eternal universe.
Mark in FL argues biological codes require a creator as abiogenesis is undemonstrated. Hosts call this a "God of the Gaps" placeholder with no explanatory power. They compare his god to a unicorn. Is DNA really proof of divine intent?
Alfie in TX asks if biblical morality has utility. Hosts identify these "high" values in Stoicism and Confucius. They argue against keeping the "rolls" with the "cyanide" of slavery. Did Jesus actually endorse harsh Mosaic laws?
Ryan in PA seeks clarification on the burden of proof for faith. Hosts assert any claim requires evidence. They distinguish between religious faith and secular hope for a second chance. Is everyone technically agnostic?
Hayden asks why the Bible uses water imagery for salvation. Hosts link baptism to ancient rituals where sin was treated as physical filth to be washed away with divine detergents. Can baptism truly cleanse a moral impurity?
Thank you for joining us this week! We will see you next time!
