Summary

Greetings Heathens! Hope you are being safe during the ongoing pandemic (still, sigh.) We hope to be a sanctuary for you in this chaotic world. In today’s episode of Talk Heathen, JMike is joined by Matt Dillahunty.
Let’s get to calls! Mike in Ohio would like to discuss polytheism with JMike and Matt. Specifically the creation myth from the perspective of a polytheist.
Kevin in New York is up next, he asks if the hosts are well versed or have complete knowledge of the Bible and if we are prepared to speak upon it. Matt says that he does not and never will have complete knowledge of the Bible and that this complete knowledge doesn’t exist for anyone. He goes on to say that complete knowledge isn’t required to draw conclusions from it.
Jeff in California claims that God is more than just the Bible. He’s calling in to tell us about it. But first though; what’s your definition of God, Jeff?
Omar in California wants to talk about logical fallacies we’ve used in the past with theists. Has Matt been able to identify his own logical fallacies from previous debates and would he be willing to discuss them? (He is and does!) Later in the call, Omar ends up being a complete and utter disappointment when trying to say he has knowledge and confidence about the universe preceding the Big Bang and that we are perpetuating fallacies by saying ‘I don’t know.’ Hey Omar, here’s a protip, don’t be an angry and condescending dudebro while speaking to us, you’ll get more bees with honey.
That’s our show for this week, please continue to be safe in your area, wear your mask, and get vaccinated if you can. The world is better with you in it. See you next week!

You might know him from the Atheist Experience or the Atheist Debates Project and various other shows.

I have Matt Dillahunty with me. Extremely excited. Matt, how's it going? It's going really good. I had a bit of a technical problem, but my roommate helped me sort it. I'm fat, dumb and happy. I've had a great weekend. I'm excited to be doing the show with you. And I know that we're going to be getting you on AXP sometime in the near future.

So yeah.

Yeah, that's true until I wake up from it all and it's not real. But yes, we will, I'm excited, definitely excited for that this Sunday.

I wanted to ask you here at the beginning because I always found the Atheist Debates project that you do to be a really useful tool.

1:28.8

And I'm not...

1:29.1

Oh, thanks.

1:29.6

I think a lot, most people know it, but I wanted to kind of get your opinion on how that all started.

1:55.6

Yeah, that's Blake Junta.

1:57.7

Blake, sorry.

1:58.3

Who we did, I don't know how many debates that we did, but we also, I had him sit down in the room.
