You're listening to, atheistically speaking. Oh, Hello and welcome to atheistically speaking this is episode 212 and I am your host Thomas Smith

Well, we're fresh off the heels of Matt Dillehunty and Blake Junta that was really enjoyable of course and I've gotten a lot of

comments and there's there's a lot of chatter going on on Facebook and Justin Sheber

posted a video relating to the recording so lots of stuff going on there. I want to do next episode. I want to do a breakdown of what I thought went on, especially because I was able to interact so little with Matt and Blake. I didn't want to take away from their air time because you guys always hear me, but that was the first time we've ever gotten to hear Matt Dilla Honey on atheistically speaking. So I didn't want to take away too much from that.

I said a few things here and there,

but for the most part I let them go at it.

But I would like to do a full analysis of that,

which I think I'll do next episode and the reason is today I want to address some

topical stuff that you no doubt have heard about going on in atheism and

actually politics as well. I've got some

topical commentary for you to apply to yourselves there and I figured I'd rather get that

going while it's possibly still fresh and give us a day off of the

divine hiddenness argument and then we'll come back later and then of course move on.

So let's hear that commentary sound. Sometimes I feel like I'm

feel like I'm a prisoner of my own conclusions that I've reached and I'd say this is one of those times.

I'm going to talk about Richard Dawkins and the whole NECSS controversy and his Twitter.

Hopefully won't spend too much time on it, but I think I ought to at least break it down for anyone who's not familiar.

Richard Dawkins tweeted a link to a video that was on the YouTube channel,

Sargon of Akad or whatever you pronounce that.

It wasn't actually his video turns out.

It was somebody else who did a video for him,

but he endorsed it, etc.
