| 0:00.0 | People keep telling me that I need to have faith in something, that I need to believe in |
| 0:04.2 | something greater than myself, so I did what any sensible modern person would do. |
| 0:08.5 | I got a pet rock. |
| 0:09.5 | Yes, this humble little chunk of sediment has all the perks of a God without the need |
| 0:14.3 | for tithes, offering, genocide, or endless desire to have his ego stroked. |
| 0:19.6 | Another astounding fact about pet rocks? Well, they answer |
| 0:22.7 | prayer acts exactly the same rate as God. They fulfill exactly as many messianic prophecies as Jesus, |
| 0:28.0 | but they've married one less child than Muhammad. Now, I understand there are some theists here that |
| 0:33.0 | are offended that I'm comparing Jesus or Muhammad to a rock. But the reality is, my rock actually exists |
| 0:39.3 | and I can prove it. However, nobody here can prove that your God exists. Nevertheless, we welcome |
| 0:45.0 | you to try. The lines are open and the show starts now. Well, friends, today is October 12th, 2025. I'm your host, Justin. You might know me as Deconstruction Zone. And I'm joined right now by my good friend and co-host. Jim Barrows, Jim, my friend. How are you? Oh, I'm doing pretty good. How about yourself? You know what? I don't know if I could be better. |
| 1:14.8 | That's always good. We had a little bit of a scare. We had some rain earlier today, |
| 1:19.5 | and that seemed to take out my internet and my power. So all of you who are praying for me not to show up, you failed, although you might almost have succeeded. |
| 1:25.4 | If only their God could answer prayer, they might have been successful. |
| 1:29.3 | It would have been a great time. |
| 1:31.3 | Yeah. |
| 1:32.3 | So. |
| 1:33.3 | I am shocked by the amount of times the Bible itself entices you to pray, suggesting that God will |
| 1:41.4 | answer your prayers or says things like in Matthew, Jesus says, don't even worry about your clothes, what you'll wear or what you're eat, because God will give it to you. |
| 1:50.2 | But the reality is there are three million children starving to death every year and some of them have no clothes, much less any food to eat. |
| 1:58.0 | Like where these are Christian people? Where is God? How come he can't follow through on the promise? Yeah. Yeah, exactly. And he, you know, he'd be free like the sparrows and the birds. Well, even at that time where he was living, that wasn't really possible because, you know, it's a little bit of a desert. Food's a little bit scarce. You got to bring it in. |
| 2:17.7 | You got to grow it. |
