About this listen
Are Conservative Christians secretly solipsists? In this episode, we dive into the philosophical idea of solipsism—the belief that only your own mind is real—and explore how it surprisingly parallels the way some evangelical Christians stereotype atheists and agnostics. From the “angry atheist” to the “wishy-washy agnostic,” these tropes can lead to a denial of other people’s lived experiences and moral agency.
We’ll break down where these stereotypes come from, why they’re harmful, and how they might reflect a deeper issue: an unwillingness to truly listen to others. Along the way, we’ll unpack Thomas Nagel, Descartes, God’s Not Dead, and a little self-aware humor.
If you’ve ever felt dismissed, misunderstood, or reduced to a cliché in a spiritual conversation—you’re not alone.
