  • S3E11_The One with the Real Boy (and His Family)
    In this episode, Phil and Susie catch up and discuss the US election results and what went wrong for Democrats, how religious beliefs are correlated with being susceptible to disinformation, Project 2025, how we both felt upon learning the results, and how we move forward over the next 4 years.Ā Ā  The main part of the episode is Susie's conversation with our favorite expert on everything, Lars and his family.Ā  She got the chance to sit down with them at her home over the summer on their way back from picking up their kids from camp, and they have a very interesting conversation, with a special focus on how their family is adjusting to the recent revelation that their son, Alex was trans.Ā  They talk a bit about how their still Xtian parents have responded to that revelation and how they responded to Lars and Christie's deconversion, along with some other family member's responses.Ā  It's a fascinating and engaging conversation with Lars, Christie, and Alex along with special appearance from Susie's daughter, Audrey, who talks about her perceptions about what she thinks about trans questions and her views on therapy.Ā  The conversation concludes with a conversation with a few of the kids about their lives in a non-religious family, and it's truly refreshing!Ā  It's a wide ranging conversation that covers a wide variety of subjects.Ā  We hope you enjoy.Ā  Thanks to Lars and Christie for sharing with us and to Alex and Audrey for contributing and a big shout out to Susie for her solo hosting debut!

  • S3E8 The One with the False Prophets
    In this episode, Phil and Susie explore the topic of prophecy.Ā  We discuss what prophecy is, what criteria something needs to meet in order to be considered "fulfilled" prophecy, examples of "fulfilled" prophecy from the bible and determining if they meet the criteria, modern false prophets, and how the gift of prophecy has changed over the centuries.Ā  Be warned, there is a lot of bible in this episode and we compare the biblical text to historical data to help us determine if the bible really does have fulfilled prophecy.Ā  There are a lot of links in the show notes section if you'd like to dig into this further.Ā Ā  We also wanted to give our listeners the opportunity to support a fellow creator within the community, Tim Mills of Harmonic Atheist, who is in the midst of a difficult family and legal situation and needs some real support and help.Ā  You can connect with Tim at any of the links below to support his channels and to make a donation to help him in this time of need.Ā Ā  One time PayPal: paypal.me/harmonictimĀ  Venmo: @harmonicatheistĀ Ā  Zelle email: [email protected]Ā Ā  GoFundMe: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-tim-stay-full-time-on-harmonic-atheistĀ  Monthly https://www.patreon.com/harmonicatheist Tim’s YouTube Channel:Ā  https://www.youtube.com/@HarmonicAtheistĀ  https://linktr.ee/harmonicatheist Show Notes and Sources https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/11/us/christian-prophets-predictions.html&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1716648572040904&usg=AOvVaw1Jw347u5kFJt5vioK1Asuy https://sites.google.com/site/errorsinthebible/failed-prophecies/6-failed-prophĀ  https://www.tyndalebulletin.org/article/29192-prediction-and-foreknowledge-in-ezekiel-s-prophecy-against-tyre.pdf https://www.gotquestions.org/Tyre-rebuilt-prophecy.html https://sites.google.com/site/errorsinthebible/failed-prophecies/the-bible-s-broken-promises https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Predictions_and_claims_for_the_Second_Coming https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/apocalypse/explanation/bdaniel.html https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/apocalypse/primary/white.html https://www.modernreformation.org/resources/articles/the-mod-the-messianic-prophecies-in-the-book-of-daniel https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Book_of_Revelation https://www.craiggreenfield.com/blog/moderndayprophets Psalm 22 video:Ā  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKRzo_wtSwkĀ  Join our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/groups/dangerousquestionsĀ Ā  Follow us at https://www.flawedtheologypodcast.comĀ  and subscribe wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts.Ā Ā  Rate and review the podcast on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcast

  • S3E7 The One with Diane
    In this episode, airing on Mother's Day (which we didn't realize at the time of recording), Phil and Suzie chat with Diane, who is a long-time Virginia resident, a mom to a brilliant nearly-25-year-old, and completely owned by a big, goofy black lab and two cats – one perfect angel and one complete ass. She adores them all. She also loves to swim, write, and travel, and she’s fascinated by architecture, especially old churches. Some have said that’s God reaching out to her, but that just makes her snort. An agnostic atheist since her late teens (but a doubter since childhood), she was indoctrinated and raised in the Methodist church. She enjoys hearing about others’ spiritual journeys, even when she doesn’t understand them.Ā Ā  We have a fascinating conversation about her upbringing, her transition from indoctrination to atheism, and the freedom, hope, and joy that she has found outside of religion and faith.Ā  Diane is the ultimate example of what many people strive for while deconstructing, namely the desire to be free, be herself, and connect with people on her own terms.Ā Ā  Diane writes on her blog, Breathing Underwater.Ā  You can connect with her at https://breathingunder-water.blogspot.com/Ā  Follow us on Facebook, Instagram, X, and YouTube @flawedtheologyĀ  Join us on our Facebook group Dangerous Questions Listen to us on our website https://www.flawedtheologypodcast.com and on all major podcast platforms.
