SHOW NOTES
In today’s episode of the Truth Wanted, Kelley Laughlin and Jim Barrows observe theists falsifying their own god as an actual bigot managed to sneak in a false nudist call. But don’t worry, Thumper saved the day with a stimulating question about wheels and finally we are topped off by Alfonso reminding us of the “other” born of a virgin stories.

Ryan in NY asks if the Abrahamic god can be falsified when theists describe him as outside of space and time. We do not even know if nothing exists. What does it mean to exist outside of the universe?

Mickey in FL asks if the hosts think there is a prejudice against nudist people like there is against LGBTQIA people. Being a nudist is not the same thing as being in the LGBTQIA community because being nude is a choice. If it was a cultural taboo it would be based on where people lived. Various cultures in warmer climates are more likely to be nudist than in colder climates and the technology to build clothes also comes into play. JIm makes an analogy to being in situations where rescuers have to put their own lives at risk to save someone who has taken a risk. You can be a nudist, but don’t take resources away from people who need it by doing things that will need to get you rescued like running around in cold weather nude. In fact, whether you are wearing clothes or not, don’t put yourself in that position. Did you call to talk about nudity or were you just trying to be a bigot? If you walk like a bigot, and talk like a bigot, you probably are not a nudist.

Thumper in ME asks if Native People have ever tried to invent the wheel. The wheels were invented by some of the South American tribes but for some reason only put them on toys. Part of the reason why could be due to overland trade difficulties. Transporting heavy items over water is easier than navigating over larger boulders and obstacles with land. There are many factors that we did not think about such as scarcity. Jim recommends the book, “Sapiens” that will shed some light on this.

Alfonso in WA is disappointed to discover there are a lot of other stories other than the Jesus stories about people being born of virgins and turning water into wine. There are lots of stories with similar themes. This is just part of story telling and does not necessarily mean the story is false.

Thank you for tuning in this week! Question of the week: What is something that is immoral but is culturally accepted?
