The Atheist Experience 841 with Russell Glasser and Don Baker

The Atheist Experience 841 for November 24, 2013 with Russell Glasser and Don Baker.
Don talks about how Christianity seemingly needs lies for successful marketing. Would you buy a vacuum cleaner if the salesman insisted on pitching it to you with a flood of obvious lies? And yet, Christianity spouts numerous falsehoods to a believing public, not just about God and Jesus, but about science, the notion of a "Christian America," and other things.

WHAT IS THE ATHEIST EXPERIENCE?

The Atheist Experience is a weekly cable access television show in Austin, Texas geared at a non-atheist audience. The Atheist Experience is produced by the Atheist Community of Austin.

The Atheist Community of Austin is organized as a nonprofit educational corporation to develop and support the atheist community, to provide opportunities for socializing and friendship, to promote secular viewpoints, to encourage positive atheist culture, to defend the first amendment principle of state-church separation, to oppose discrimination against atheists and to work with other organizations in pursuit of common goals.

We define atheism as the lack of belief in gods. This definition also encompasses what most people call agnosticism.
