| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Eric Metaxis show with your host, Eric Metaxis. |
| 0:16.0 | Yes, sir. |
| 0:17.4 | Is this what I think it is? |
| 0:19.0 | I think it is. |
| 0:20.0 | What is it? |
| 0:20.6 | What is this? It's Ask Mattaxas. Wait a minute. think it is? I think it is. What is it? What is this? |
| 0:21.5 | Oh, boy, it's Ask Me Taxis. |
| 0:23.2 | Wait a minute. |
| 0:23.8 | I'm a Taxis. That's you. That means you're going to ask me questions? I will do that, sir. How do we get these questions? They come in. Your lovely daughter collects them, and then she gives them to us, and then you answer them, and this is the first one of the new month. |

| 1:29.1 | you're an atheist, it follows logically, without any question, it follows logically that there's |
