The Thinking Atheist Podcast
Summary: A former Christian of 30 years, I've joined countless others in breaking the bonds of fear and superstition to live a truthful, fulfilled, exciting life. As a professional video producer, I create short-form videos designed to entertain, generate discussion, ask and answer questions, and generally blow some fresh air through the cobwebs.

Every day, skeptics do intellectual battle with people who believe in everything from talking donkeys, unicorns, curses, giants, and 900-year-old humans. Are we wasting our time?
How do non-believers approach the Christmas holiday season? How do they handle the mealtime prayers? What are the reactions of religious family members to atheist or agnostic loved ones? Your calls. Your letters. Your experiences. Your opinions.
The Creator Himself will be our guest for this special evening podcast. The Mr. Deity satire website and videos are clever, insightful and wildly entertaining. We'll talk about the site, the show, the hate mail, and your calls. www.mrdeity.com

While religious cultures are encouraged to shout their message from the mountaintops, atheists are expected to sit quietly and say nothing. For a long time, non-religious people have held their tongues. But the tide is turning, and men, women and young people everywhere are quoting Peter Finch from the classic film "Network." They're mad as hell...and they're not gonna take this anymore.
