Ep. 99 - Is Monogamy Unnatural?
These days we are told that monogamy is "unnatural" or "unrealistic." As the argument goes, being faithful in a marriage can be hard which means it is impossible and against our very nature. This is the logic of a weak, cowardly age. Monogamy is, in fact, far more "natural" for humans than the other option. And it's perfectly feasible and even pretty easy if you are willing to exercise a little bit of self-restraint and selflessness. Learn more about your ad choices.

Ep. 98 - Colin Kaepernick Is No Hero
The hype around Colin Kaepernick is overblown on both sides. The Right has turned him into some kind of historic villain, and the Left has turned him into a martyr who "sacrificed everything." Both of these characterizations are ridiculous, but the latter is most ridiculous. Kaepernick did not sacrifice everything. In fact, he sacrificed nothing. On the contrary, his political crusade has profited him tremendously. And that's simply not how sacrifice works. Learn more about your ad choices.

Ep. 97 - Why Moral Relativism Is False
Yesterday we talked about why there can be no objective morality without God. The only logical position for an atheist to hold is moral relativism. Now today I want to discuss why moral relativism -- which is a position many atheists and secular people do openly hold -- is nonsensical and false. We do not get to invent our own moral systems. There is only one true moral system, and it is a system that everyone, everywhere, knows and recognizes. Learn more about your ad choices.

Ep. 96 - Without God There Can Be No Objective Morality
An atheist cannot logically make objective moral claims. He cannot logically say that any action at all is objectively right or objectively wrong. Yet, many atheists do make such claims. Many atheists do believe that things like rape, murder, theft, etc., are not just subjectively wrong, but actually wrong. Atheists seem to recognize a moral code, even though no such moral code could exist without God. What does that tell us about atheism, God, and morality? Let's talk about that now.

Ep. 95 - The Problem with the ‘Body Positivity’ Movement
These days we are told to embrace and celebrate everything about ourselves and our bodies. Even the morbidly obese are encouraged to be "positive" about a physical state that may well kill them. I think this is the wrong approach. For one, it prevents honest self-assessment which prevents self-improvement. For another, it encourages us to remain obsessively focused on ourselves.
