Summary
In this episode, I examine the relationship between Christian ethics and atheist rationality, questioning why atheists choose honesty. I challenge them to reflect on their moral consistency and free speech, while discussing the implications of their left-leaning political stance. We explore whether objective moral standards exist in atheism and contrast abstract knowledge with its tangible outcomes. The conversation also addresses the societal impact of beliefs, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. My goal is to encourage atheists to articulate their ethical foundations and engage constructively with differing perspectives.

| 0:16.6 | And I suppose I'd like to think of myself as an ambassador, an ambassador, not to Burma, but between Christian ethics and atheist rationality. |
| 0:30.4 | That is my latest ambassadorship, my latest ambassador role. |
| 0:36.7 | And I'm going to sort of reveal what the purpose was of my fairly infamous tweet from two |
| 0:42.5 | or three days ago asking atheists why they don't lie. |
