The Iscariot Generation

The Iscariot Generation

The thing Judas Iscariot was famous for was his betrayal of Jesus in the gospels. While I'm not sure if he even existed, some historians say yes and some say no, I think he's definitely someone I can relate to. I left the faith and resigned from ministry in 2019. To some, that seemed like a betrayal to Jesus. This podcast is a place for people like me, who left faith for reason. A place for former ministers or just former Christians to come and look at the reasons we left our faith. A place of healing and acceptance for some of us who have been dragged through the mud because we dared to stop believing. I will talk about my struggles, I will look at some popular teachings and Bible stories from a more skeptical perspective, and I will share your stories as well.

Today, I'm reacting to a video from the Rusty Word channel called, "What's the Future of Atheism? (Stats Don't Lie...)." Is Atheism a trend that will soon pass away like bell bottoms and elevator shoes? The person who made this video seems to think so.

Today, we look back at the late actor, comedian, and former preacher Sam Kinison. I found a clip of one of his sermons and was really pissed off at the comments that had been posted. Let's talk about why Christians think their role is to judge others.
