Summary

Please support the show at https://www.patreon.com/friendlyatheistpodcast Jessica and I sat down to talk about several stories from the past week involving religion and politics. — A Pew survey finds that Jews and atheists know more about religion than every kind of Christian. Let’s take the quiz! (0:27, with analysis at 19:08) — An anti-LGBTQ Republican lawmaker from TN resigned amidst allegations that he was using Grindr to meet men. (25:09) — The Mormon Church knew about a pedophile but never reported him to authorities. (30:30) — Iceland has lost a glacier. A freaking glacier. (36:45) — The congregation revolted after a pastor put up a sign saying “America: Love or Leave It.” (39:59) — The Tega Cay Police Department in South Carolina put up a Christian monument, then quickly took it down. (42:40) — The governor of Texas wants you to know Chick-fil-A is safe. (45:58) — Secular “churches” are struggling to stay relevant. (48:36) — A woman violently pushed a priest off stage. Was it justified? (55:50) (***Update***: We discussed what the priest said before the woman pushed him. It turns out that is false!) — Another Alabama candidate for Senate wants to create a theocracy. (58:35) Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
