In today’s episode I’m joined by Jake Farr-Wharton and Marilee to discuss secular wedding ceremonies! They can be a challenge, since religion has had a monopoly on weddings and other special occasions. Our guests have some insights on what go into a secular wedding!

We have the thrilling conclusion of our Chris Shelton trilogy! Today we find out what led Chris out of the cult of Scientology, and how he dealt with leaving the religion that was his life for 27 years.
Prior to the scientology segment, I briefly discuss some rather odd things Patton Oswalt had to say of atheism in this article: http://www.salon.com/2015/03/11/salons_patton_oswalt_peace_summit/
With that brief aside, aside, though, we move onto part 2/3 with Chris Shelton and his life inside the cult of Scientology. This time we learn where and how all that 27 years was spent. Thanks again to Chris and check him out at http://mncriticalthinker.com
Hello Thetans! In this episode we’ll be learning a ton about Scientology. Chris Shelton is an ex-Scientologist who will be taking us through the basics. I would go on more about Chris, but I actually don’t want to spoil any of his story because we are going to learn all about it in the next few episodes!
Thanks so much to Chris for these incredible recordings, and make sure to check out his website at http://mncriticalthinking.com. He has a great blog and youtube channel that I highly recommend everyone subscribe to!
This week I’m very pleased to be joined by two ex-Mormons, Bill and Gerald. Their stories are similar in many ways, but also diverge at a few key points. Get a glimpse into what it’s like to grow up as a Mormon; the missions, the creepy corporate feel of the church, the very firm expectations. You don’t want to miss this one!
We’re joined by none other than Noah Lugeons and Heath Enwright! After becoming famous for being Scathing Atheists, the guys are now branching out to politics with their new podcast, The Skepticrat! It’s taking the iTunes by storm, peaking at #51 of all podcasts ever, in any category. Quite impressive!

Previous guest and awesome Patron Michael, AKA Bangs Naughty Bits, joins me to talk about free speech. In particular, we’re discussing a very interesting article which I read aloud on the show: http://reason.com/archives/2015/02/18/after-copenhagen-the-myth-of-civilized-c
