In today's episode of the Atheist Experience, Godless Engineer and Jim Barrows ask how the God who drowned and slaughtered children became the Jesus who loves the little children, with Sofia Spina joining later as backup host! Bob in NY claims the world would be better if everyone followed Jesus. The hosts bring Matthew 15, Bible slavery laws, Deuteronomy 22, and the ICC definition of genocide. When the Amalekites come up, who is Bob to judge God? Ibrahim in Canada, an ex-Muslim atheist, asks how believers can think disbelievers deserve eternal torment yet still befriend and trust them. Is it out of sight, out of mind, or is cognitive dissonance doing the heavy lifting? Thank you for joining us this week! We will see you next time!
