In this video, we're diving into the surprisingly humorous history of Christmas from an atheist perspective. Did you know the Puritans actually canceled Christmas all the way back in 1659? They viewed it as a pagan party filled with drunken revelry and dubbed it 'Foolstide.' And honestly, they may have had a point!Today's Christians often proclaim, 'Jesus is the reason for the season,' but history reveals a different story. December 25th was originally the date of a Roman solstice festival, complete with Yule logs and evergreens—symbols of life that predate Christianity by centuries. The Puritans even fined those who dared to celebrate this so-called holiday!So, how do we, the atheists, celebrate Christmas? We embrace its joyful, pagan roots! The lights, the music, and the gift-giving all symbolize connection and joy, free from religious dogma. Join me as we reclaim Christmas—not for a god, but for us!This year, I want to hear from you: How do you celebrate Christmas without invoking a deity? Share your stories in the comments below, and let’s spread the warmth of human love and connection during this chilly season. After all, who needs a savior when you can simply be human?👉 Want to support this podcast?

In this video, I’m on my soapbox debunking Christian nonsense and diving deep into the joys of being an ex-christian, atheist, and secular humanist. Join me as I celebrate the freedom that comes from breaking the chains of Christianity and explore the real damage it inflicts on individuals and society as a whole.This video is a compilation of some of the most impacting clips from my atheist podcast this year. Here, I tackle pressing issues like the bigotry and discrimination perpetuated by the Christian community, and challenge the absurd notion that consciousness can exist independently of the brain. Spoiler alert: there's no scientific backing for that idea!I also take a stand against misogyny, address the problematic views of various Christian denominations, and confront the concept of a homicidal God. Plus, we’ll debunk the many false claims Christians often make about atheists.With a humorous twist and a collection of my best clips, this video is designed not only to inform but also to entertain. I hope you find it enlightening and maybe even share a laugh or two! If you enjoy what you see, don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share for more content that challenges the status quo.

In this eye-opening episode, we dive into the comical absurdities that atheists face from Christians who cling to wildly inconsistent beliefs. Embrace doubt and defy dogma as I unravel the myth that atheism is simply a reaction to pain or anger. With over 45,000 Christian denominations, God’s ‘definition’ is as varied as ice cream flavors—each one crafted by humans rather than any divine decree.I challenge the logic: If God can allow Satan to wreak havoc (just ask Job), who’s really running the show here? This isn’t about trauma; it’s about reclaiming reason amidst a sea of loopholes. Let’s walk away from toxic narratives and trust evidence instead of ancient tales. We’re here to shred the myths and celebrate the freedom to question everything.Atheist podcasters often hear the outrageous claim of being on ‘Satan’s payroll.’ But let’s face it—if God doesn’t exist, then neither does Satan. It’s like getting a paycheck from a fictional company. Christians often gaslight with supposed ‘proof’ while ignoring the contradictions in their own scriptures. So, the next time someone accuses you of being angry at ‘God,’ ask them for evidence. Stay curious, challenge the lies, and let’s build a world grounded in reality. The truth is out there—are you ready to find it?👉 Want to support this podcast?

Toothless Grin Kim takes a deep dive into the Great White Lie that insists America was founded as a white, Christian, English-speaking nation. Spoiler alert: it wasn’t! Join us as we expose how Christian nationalism peddles a false and exclusionary history that is deeply rooted in racial and religious supremacy. We’ll unpack everything from Trump’s symbolic language policies to the Doctrine of Discovery and the harrowing Trail of Tears, showing how these narratives not only justify discrimination but also erase the rich histories of Indigenous peoples. I argue that the real strength of America lies in its diversity, not in a narrow, exclusionary vision. It’s time to set the record straight and build a truly inclusive democracy that acknowledges and celebrates all its citizens.So, if you’re ready to challenge the status quo and laugh while doing it, hit that play button!

Ever wondered why Christians are like people with a 2,000-year-old Walmart order for a pizza cooker that’s not even available? Let’s dive into this! Right now, I’m dealing with some retail madness: my half-baked DiGiorno and a prepaid phone that can’t save my podcast files. A week ago, I ordered a shiny new Galaxy, but it’s late. And my pizza cooker from Walmart? Poof—vanished due to a price error. Seriously, Walmart didn’t even ask if I wanted to pay the real price! Christians order ‘heaven’ with zero reviews, hoping for a delivery that will never come. It’s like waiting for a pizza that’s either under-cooked or burnt! Atheists are the ones realizing the ‘Faith Pavilion’ is empty, while christians are slicing their lives with shears, waiting for a non-creator to notice them. So, what do you think? If your ‘pizza cooker’ was God and your ‘phone’ was heaven, would you reorder? Let’s get the conversation going in the comments! 👉 Want to support this podcast?

In this thought-provoking video, I delve into “The Secular Sacred,” where I make a compelling case for finding profound awe and wonder in a godless, empirical universe. As an ex-christian and proud atheist, I argue that the true depth of our experience comes not from divine revelation but from a rich understanding of the natural world, science, and the human experience itself.Join me as I explore how the universe can be viewed as a magnificent “cathedral”—a space where real-world truths lead to richer, more meaningful experiences than any mythological narrative could offer. By rejecting religious dogma, I advocate for cultivating this sense of “Secular Sacred” through mindful observation and scientific discovery, paving the way for a happier, dogma-free existence.Towards the end of the podcast, I take a moment to address the Christian trolls who often invade my comment section, encouraging a respectful dialogue. I invite my main audience—atheists, ex-Christians, anti-theists, skeptics, secular humanists, and deconstructors—to share their thoughts in the comments. What is your “Secular Sacred” moment? Do you have several?Let’s inspire each other to find awe and wonder in the universe around us!👉 Want to support this podcast?

Do Christians really have a monopoly on morality? Spoiler alert: They don’t—and the evidence is overwhelming. In this video, we dive deep into the REAL origins of human morality, revealing how evolutionary processes, social learning, and survival mechanisms developed long before any ancient religious texts. While Christianity claims their God is the source of all moral behavior, science, anthropology, and cross-cultural studies tell a completely different story.What you’ll learn:• How evolutionary psychology explains moral behavior• Why different cultures have different moral frameworks (and what that means for ‘objective’ morality)• The role of reason, logic, and social cooperation in developing ethics• Why the ‘God-given morality’ argument falls apart under scrutinyPrepare to have your mind blown as we unpack the complexities of morality without the need for divine intervention. It turns out, humans are pretty good at figuring things out on their own! Drop your thoughts in the comments: What do YOU think shapes human morality? Let’s spark a lively discussion and see if we can find some common ground.

In today’s video, we’re diving into a topic that makes many Christians uncomfortable: the assumption that ALL atheists are immoral, angry, or just lost souls destined for eternal punishment. Spoiler alert: that’s not the case!Christians often love to paint atheists with a broad brush, labeling us as everything from hateful to hopeless. But here’s the truth they seem to overlook: atheism is simply a lack of belief in any god. It’s not a moral failing, nor is it a badge of honor. It’s just a position on belief.Join me as I dismantle these lazy stereotypes and break down the various identities many of us embrace beyond the simple label of “atheist.” - **Antitheist**: Let’s talk about why I actively oppose religious harm.- **Ex-Christian**: My personal journey out of Christianity.- **Skeptic**: The importance of demanding evidence before belief.- **Agnostic**: Embracing the honest “I don’t know” position.- **Secular Humanist**: How we can have morality without divine command.- **Realist**: Facing reality as it is, not as we wish it to be.If you’re tired of the misconceptions surrounding atheism and want to understand the diverse identities within it, hit that subscribe button and join the conversation!
