Welcome everybody back to Mormon Stories, we're with Randy Snyder and Tyson Jacobson again.

I've organized a lot of the questions that came in from listeners that John Delin asked everybody to send in.

And we're going to kind of take it slowly and we're going to take it right through the things that you've asked as much as we can

and leave any of our debating and what not towards the end of the podcast.

So I'm excited to hear in far more nuance and far more detail the things that Randy and Tyson are thinking

and we're grateful for these list of questions and we think it's going to really serve the podcast well

and hopefully all of your interests. So guys, if you are ready, let's just dive into the list, okay?

Look, can we start with opening him? He lives a visceral.

Cool. Since we've got a little quorum here.

I'm a terrible singer, but I'm if you sing lead, I'll sing the bass part.

You got my morning face, boys. Yeah.

Anyway, well, I wonder if that part will be, that part will be sliced out because this is not, anyway, nevermind.

We're going, okay guys, in the first, in the first bit as we talked a little bit, we talked a little bit about secular humanism, atheism, scientific naturalism, all the different sort of labels.

What do you guys see as the importance of labels? What do you see about, you know, some emphasize the positive aspects of the world view that you're embracing versus the things that you're rejecting?

What's the difference between humanism and atheism? Is there a difference, et cetera?

Either one of you guys want to jump in on and start at least get that definition kind of going.

You just call someone out of the quicker.

I know Tyson, you began talking about it in the first one, so Randy, why don't you take it here?

Well, as far as labels in general, you know, anytime, anytime you're discussing something, it's important to define your terms.

So labels do serve a useful purpose in communicating and, you know, helping each other understand each other, but there's also stigmas attached to labels.
