Summary

 WHAT IS TRUTH WANTED? 🤔

Truth Wanted is a show about getting to the bottom of beliefs, whether it’s karma or Christ, Bigfoot or crystals. Truth Wanted would like to know how you know it’s true.

Hosted by ObjectivelyDan, Truth Wanted takes calls from the community (that means YOU!) and features new guests every week, emphasizing thorough conversations over name-calling and scoffing (most of the time). Truth Wanted focuses on how and why people believe what they believe, and how you can talk about beliefs in more effective ways.

    In today’s episode of Truth Wanted, ObjectivelyDan and guest GothDamnIt_Jay explore the intersection of alternative subcultures and atheism! They dive into the aesthetics of the dead, the weirdness of being a third-generation atheist, and whether biblical mythology is just a well-funded fantasy franchise. Can secular individuality survive the pressure to stay in line with ancient Christian dogma?
    Michelle in NY explores Lucifer’s rebellion and spiritual warfare. Dan dismisses these as biblical fanfiction, while Jay views them as entertaining myths like Greek legends. Is there any reason to treat angel hierarchies as more than fantasy?
    Rudy in TX argues Christianity is true because it is hated and historically accurate. The hosts dismantle the "hatred equals truth" logic and highlight the lack of evidence for the Exodus. Can stories pulled from a "poetry jar" survive history?
    Thank you for joining us today! We will see you next week and don't forget to add your answer to this week's We Want The Truth question: What is Bigfoot's favorite conspiracy theory?

    In today’s episode of Talk Heathen, Richard Gilliver and Jamie the Blind Limey tackle the bottom feeders of the philosophy world and the perceived persecution of majority religions! They explore the distinction between academic philosophy and rhetorical trickery, the reality of global religious oppression, and why a loss of privilege is often mistaken for a lack of fairness. Can critical thinking dismantle the defensive shields of the "Phil bros"?
    Lisa in Canada asks how to critique religions without appearing bigoted. Jamie separates ideas from people, while Richard notes systemic abuse in Buddhism. Should consistency be the shield against prejudice?
    Michelle discusses how spirituality helps her process horrific childhood trauma. The hosts empathize but warn against using magical thinking as a security blanket. Can evidence-based healing replace supernatural hope?
    Thank you for joining us this week! We will see you next time!
