You're listening to, atheistically speaking. The Hello and welcome to atheistically speaking this is episode 241 and we are moving on from the social just kidding just kidding we're not

so I tweeted and asked my patrons if they would like another episode of commentary on the debate.

Because there was so much I didn't get to, I hardly was able to share your opinions and there were a ton of them, so lots to choose from there.

So, and I am really blown away by the universal enthusiasm for that idea. I really only had just Ben Young the third.

That was the only person who was like, eh, I'm kind of done. But literally every other comment was yes, please do another one because.

And that tells me that this is really, it really is as big of a divide as I thought, you know? And it's it's well worth the discussion it's something that our

community the atheism skeptic community really cares about I think on either side

Well I already have to issue a retraction, well, a correction, I guess, as I was already starting to record.

Patron Jeff Williamson commented, I really don't think it's worth dragging out.

James's summary of safe space terminology being hijacked early in their discussion, and

Eli wanting to ignore this reality pretty much sums up the whole thing apart from trigger

warnings and that's an issue for academics, lecturers, not comedians to debate.

Leave well enough alone it only gets messier from here. So sorry Jeff you were outvoted and your vote was just just a little too late. It might have now you're still outvoted like I don't know something like 40 or 50 comments to 2 I think across all platforms. That's just so many comments. It's not of

course a very high percentage of listeners but you know not not very many listeners actually comment it's a very high
