Josh and Becky swat down charlatan cures for COVID-19, talk with Thomasin Satanlad about The Satanic Temple’s infernal ritual at the statehouse steps, and answer some listener questions.

Becky, Dan, and Josh express alarm regarding assumed entitlement to butts and tabernacles, governmental hand-waving around antisemitism, and religiously-tinged nationality tests in the US and India. Dan clarifies fish grunts for Sam, and we hear from a magnanimous fan in New Zealand.

Sam, Dave, and Tom weigh the stupidity and/or malice of colonial, religious, and biological warfare on isolated peoples.  They also weigh the stupidity and malice of “Western Chauvinism” (aka white supremacy), dissing on enjoyment, excluding Humanists, and Trump.

Becky, Bridget, and Luke are unnerved by Christian forgiveness, swearing to god, and sexually explicit questioning of children. But we love India’s court rulings that eliminate adultery and homosexuality as crimes!

Luke and Josh join Becky for discussion of religious animus disguised as nationalism, and vice versa, plus some fun with linguistics. Becky sits down with Susan Gerbic to learn about Guerrilla Skepticism on Wikipedia.
