Aron Ra has spent over 15 years learning about religions, debating religious beliefs, and raising awareness around atheism, anti-theism, and how people act as atheists.
Aron Ra is an American author, podcaster, and regional director of American Atheists, he joins us to discuss concepts of religion, what it’s like debating with religious leaders, and the similarities religion has with politics.
We also talk about how politics is changing, the demise of the American political landscape, and why we’re all becoming so divided…
“The truth doesn’t matter to religion to at all, if the truth mattered they would be dispassionate. If the truth is all that matters to you and you don’t want to be fooled into believing anything, and you are tentative even about the things you do believe, well then you’re going to be very dispassionate, you’re going to be very critical.” - Aron Ra
What is Covered:
00:00 - What Atheism really is and the problem with religions.
06:45 - The idea that all religious Gods are the same God.
10:05 - Why Republicans want to erode the separation between church and state.
15:50 - Aron Ra’s favorite type of movie.
22:30 - Why the idea of free will and faith proves there is no God.
29:00 - Why the government shouldn’t be involved in abortion.
34:36 - The tribalistic nature of politics.
41:59 - Debating religion and faith with different religious leaders.
45:23 - How to set up an interview with a religious leader.
49:38 - The predictable nature of religious people in debates.
51:59 - The accepting nature of Texans.
55:30 - The similarities and differences between religion and politics.
1:02:52 - The worst president America has ever had.
1:07:34 - How the Republican and Democrat parties have changed over the years.
1:08:53 - Why Donald Trump still hasn’t been arrested.
1:15:29 - The best type of snake to keep as a pet.

I have been an atheist since I was 16 though, due to all the conflicting views and nonsense in religion.

Let me see how honest you are western godless and souless person to respond all that: I know that you are western, godless and Souless wester (that is the logic, prove me wrong if you can or do not say anything please ☺️) (do not ask yourself how I know, because that is 100% accurate, right? But why you are a westerner godless and souless person, ok?) Atheism is mainly from the west, and the west is rich, so people prefer have been confused by Money, and money produces materialistic societies... so a healthy society) Prove me wrong. You just have been trapped in this stupid modernity. Prove wrong (and do not be pride as all westerns) Plus we westerns have been arrogant to all other societies, cultures and people (more then anyone else) and so we are very arrogant trhogout God now, but we are the worst humans, we created so many wars, so much dangerous technology, imperialism and so on. So we think to be at the place of God, that why we do not him... Plus most of those people are youths and youths tend to be Godless and Souless, and they do not care that according to that idea system it makes you not have objective morality, they do not know where they morals come from (because they do not know where their morals come from, right??), plus the Atheism makes you believe you will be nothing once death, but you do not think about that when you are young and strong, but much you get older and closer to the death you become more religious because God and the idea of an Afterlife is the only thing make you go ehaed... So basically you can not prove if there is a creation there is not a creator (can you??? Plaese answer this question with an answer not with another question if you can do) That why the West is so fucked up. Follow the money and bad church decision... By the way can you prove God does not exist? Plus can you tell me where your morals are from?? Please answer IF you can western godless and Souless person. Can you tell what comes from 0 (as you think the Big Bang was created by himself and not with an external Intervention) without using any external intervention??? (Now let see western and godless logic and stupidity): I do not believe The "Phisics" exist, (of course I do but, let follow your logic) can you prove me with evidence it does?? You are the people of evidence because you can not seen the Beauty of the creations and you think you own science? But what is the better evidence, that you are alive, and if you are alive is not just because of your parents Because who created your parents? Tell me. Nothing? for real? How ridiculous is such claim? What you did not understand in this "if an intelligent people such you needed an intelligent supreme being to design and create you? What you do not understand if exist such beautiful world an intelligent supreme being had created it?" What you do not understand if exist such beautiful world an intelligent supreme being had created it?" Cant you answer me about all those 3 questions??? What you did not get about that? Neither do I believe in Astrology, but can you prove me with evidence that it does not exist? Now I have something very important you do not: God a Trust in him I pray him I thanks to Him (and also my parents to be alive) I say "God Bless you" I have a straight, which is him (that you do not have) So you got much lesser then me. Ask yourself why! And if have none of those things are better or worst for you! Are it better? Or Worst compared to us believers?? Tell me (and be honest).... You still are in disadvantageous places. As we believe we will go in a better life once death and we will live forevere (so we believe we have to put the best we can do, not only for this life but for the afterlife: while you do not, you care only about this life) Howeverer you think you will be NOTHING once death (as yourself if it is better for your kids and yourself to believe in a good afterlife, if you act good, or in NOTHING).How sad is that? How sad is to think you will be Nothing, without any hope for death??? May God Bless you ☺️... Man I will pray for you to have (believe) God again in your life. Also because: Believe in God is *Free (prove wrong if you can) * It does not require any political changes (believer can be con right, centre, wing, liberal, conservative and so on). * You will not change that Much, only Believe in Him (Prove me wrong about that too) * Once you are alone it is only Him you have (Prove Me wrong) * So if you feel sick (Prove me wrong) * Or Someone of your family, unfortunately. (prove me wrong) * once you get older you will have him (prove me wrong) * Or before to die (Prove wrong) * You will not think the people who lived and the one you knew left this world are Nothing (and in some cases is like they never existed, because none remembers them or have a picture of them, but have reached God. (Prove me wrong) * You will see people not just human but sons with a Father (which believe me will help, because you give them another positive attribute, which will help you to define them with more meaning).((Prove wrong) * You will have another purpose in this life: which is not. Be good and help people, but pray for them (and praying is a religious thing) and work not only for this life but also for after life,because working for the next life gives you more hope and let you think about your future... Just as you think for tomorrow.(Prove wrong) And, again, basically we stop this thing that we westerns do to be the most arrogants people in the world, and again losing the faith on God, only because we live in a healthy society we want live materialistically, especially for our youth (they will need God anyway once older, believe it or not). (Prove wrong) Beside my parents, every morning I wake up I thank God, what about you? Do you thank God you are alive? I hope you understand that (without any further questions) May God bless you and the peace for Jesus upon you ☺️..

Or when he talked to a biologist and the biologist kept on explaining and Aron asked questions he only could ask because he has such great knowledge about this topic.

Aron brings it to the point in [25:30] when he says "… any being worthy of worship would not want to be worshipped. It would be even more petty if the god demands that you believe in this particular version of god …". On my path in becoming an atheist by deep thinking, I started questioning religion, managed to break through the "religious thought fence" and got the necessary outside perspective by having similar thoughts: If there is a god, who sees anything you do and can have anything he wants anyways, he would judge you solely by your actions towards others and the environment. The desire to be worshipped is too petty for a being as high as god. So, religious services, praying and so on is completely pointless, but religious people think they can fool their god, I guess.

2:30 A whole lot of the confusion centers around ambiguity in language. I try to be precise and differentiate "to believe" from "to know" in order to reduce that ambiguity. We can go through life basing our understanding of the universe on "beliefs", which are accepted on faith in the absence of material evidence. Or we can go through life basing our understanding of the universe on "knowledge", information derived through disciplined processes for analyzing material evidence. (I need a few more sentences to cover all the finer points but you all get the idea.) Belief does not equal knowledge. To "know" something doesn't depend on an impossible 100% standard of proof. That is effectively impossible to achieve in the face of the complexity of Nature. But a strong preponderance of the evidence suffices. And yes, should new and significant contradictory evidence come to light, our knowledge will change. Humans are not all-knowing gods. Believing something, though, requires absolutely no evidence at all, if you choose to take it on faith. I could say, for example, that I _believe_ I have an eternal soul. But I can much more confidently say that I _know_ I have two feet. It's simply a question of the strength of the evidence. Lastly, there's the issue of accepting the knowledge of others. We pursue knowledge as a society, not just individually. I'm not an astrophysicist. I can't say that I personally understand the Big Bang theory. But I accept it (not believe it) as true based on knowledge. It's just not my personal knowledge. It's the knowledge of the world's best experts in the field. Do I "believe" them? No. I _trust_ them, and with good reason. I can trust them because our society is built on trust. It's the efficient way to function. To support that we have developed all kinds of rules and laws penalizing people who abuse our trust. Professors or scientific researchers who falsify data, for example, can see their careers and incomes destroyed. So I don't have to "believe" in science or scientists. I can KNOW that my confidence in their expertise is justified. I've done a couple of short videos on this topic. It's a favorite of mine.

5:24 - I feel like this has already described my position at this point. I grew up In the UK where religion is very much a part of education. At 3/4 years old I "laughed" at the thought of Jonah being swallowed by the Whale and surviving was a "true" story - my teachers told me Off; "Of course it's true!" - BUT HOW?! THAT'S NOT POSSIBLE?! "Because the bible is the oldest book in the world and everything contained in it is the truth" Through my constant questioning they told me "everybody" (which I took to mean every adult because I knew it didn't include me) spoke to and received messages from God daily?! The first time, after starting formal schooling life, life made sense to me was when I asked my Mother; "Would God be happy about this [subject]?! - And she said "I don't know. I don't believe in God. - "[Excuse the dramatic re-enactment!] WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DON'T BELIEVE IN GOD? EVERY ADULT I HAVE EVER ASKED HAS A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD. THEY TALK TO HIM EVERY SINGLE DAY. HE TALKS TO THEM EVERY SINGLE DAY! - she made clear that, no. People born in "these countries" believe these old books and people born in "other countries" believe other old books.... And none of them have a grain of truth to them. That's when I realised I was an atheist. As Hitchen's said - "I didn't become one. I realised I was one".

Can you tell what comes from 0 (as you think the Big Bang was created by himself and not with an external Intervention) without using any external intervention??? (Now let see western and godless logic and stupidity): I do not believe The "Phisics" exist, (of course I do but, let follow your logic) can you prove me with evidence it does?? You are the people of evidence because you can not seen the Beauty of the creations and you think you own science? But what is the better evidence, that you are alive, and if you are alive is not just because of your parents Because who created your parents? Tell me. Nothing? for real? How ridiculous is such claim? What you did not understand in this "if an intelligent people such you needed an intelligent supreme being to design and create you? What you do not understand if exist such beautiful world an intelligent supreme being had created it?" What you do not understand if exist such beautiful world an intelligent supreme being had created it?" Cant you answer me about all those 3 questions??? What you did not get about that? Neither do I believe in Astrology, but can you prove me with evidence that it does not exist? Now I have something very important you do not: God a Trust in him I pray him I thanks to Him (and also my parents to be alive) I say "God Bless you" I have a straight, which is him (that you do not have) So you got much lesser then me. Ask yourself why! And if have none of those things are better or worst for you! Are it better? Or Worst compared to us believers?? Tell me (and be honest).... You still are in disadvantageous places. As we believe we will go in a better life once death and we will live forevere (so we believe we have to put the best we can do, not only for this life but for the afterlife: while you do not, you care only about this life) Howeverer you think you will be NOTHING once death (as yourself if it is better for your kids and yourself to believe in a good afterlife, if you act good, or in NOTHING).How sad is that? How sad is to think you will be Nothing, without any hope for death??? May God Bless you ☺️... Man I will pray for you to have (believe) God again in your life. Also because: Believe in God is *Free (prove wrong if you can) * It does not require any political changes (believer can be con right, centre, wing, liberal, conservative and so on). * You will not change that Much, only Believe in Him (Prove me wrong about that too) * Once you are alone it is only Him you have (Prove Me wrong) * So if you feel sick (Prove me wrong) * Or Someone of your family, unfortunately. (prove me wrong) * once you get older you will have him (prove me wrong) * Or before to die (Prove wrong) * You will not think the people who lived and the one you knew left this world are Nothing (and in some cases is like they never existed, because none remembers them or have a picture of them, but have reached God. (Prove me wrong) * You will see people not just human but sons with a Father (which believe me will help, because you give them another positive attribute, which will help you to define them with more meaning).((Prove wrong) * You will have another purpose in this life: which is not. Be good and help people, but pray for them (and praying is a religious thing) and work not only for this life but also for after life,because working for the next life gives you more hope and let you think about your future... Just as you think for tomorrow.(Prove wrong) And, again, basically we stop this thing that we westerns do to be the most arrogants people in the world, and again losing the faith on God, only because we live in a healthy society we want live materialistically, especially for our youth (they will need God anyway once older, believe it or not). (Prove wrong) Beside my parents, every morning I wake up I thank God, what about you? Do you thank God you are alive? I hope you understand that (without any further questions) May God bless you and the peace for Jesus upon you ☺️...

7:50 I think the idea that the idea that "my religion is the only truth" is more of a property of Abrahamic religions rather than universal religious view. I have heard this from world religion experts. Also, I know that when I have visited Buddhist and Hindu temples, each case they strongly discouraged me from turning my back on my own religious tradition. I am an atheist but they seam to always assume that I am Christion since we are in the US.

I thought the first part was interesting... Personally, if someone asks me, or invites me to a religious event, I just say: "I'm not really interested; I don't believe in God." Or perhaps: "I don't go to church; I'm not a believer." (It seems like saying it that way gets the situation across accurately and concisely... without any questions about terms or definitions.) I would also have to say that, until quite recently, I never considered myself part of a group that specifically identified me as "an atheist". God was just one of the things I didn't believe in... like ghosts... and telepathy... And it never seemed to require a title or even much thought.

How did you make it past the first verse of the bible about God creating? Do tell how it happened on its own. The 1LofT states that energy can't be created or destroyed, it can't happen naturally. One aspect of the 2LofT shows that the universe is winding down, usable energy is becoming less usable. It is clear creation had to be done supernaturally at some point yet it is still denied because people are just too proud to accept that, among other things.

@@2fast2block First of all, "natural laws", including the "first law of thermodynamics" are not laws in the sense of rules... they are simply observations of how the natural world operates... which have been extensively proven or shown to be true. In this case there are several issues with your claim. First of all, we don't know whether the universe was ever "created", or ever "came into existence", or has simply always existed, or whether the energy that now comprises the matter it is made up of has always existed but in some other form... and those questions themselves may be meaningless if we're considering "the state of affairs before time itself existed". Second of all, the first law of thermodynamics assumes A CLOSED SYSTEM... and, again, we don't know if that assumption applies to the universe either. Third... you are attempting to "do a special pleading". *I* assume that "the universe appeared or existed first"; *YOU* assume that your God existed first... THEN magicked the universe into existence. So, whether we choose to assume that the existence of either is "natural" or "supernatural" that still offers no reason to prefer one story over the other. If your God has always existed then perhaps the universe has always existed; if your God came into existence by magic then perhaps the universe came into existence by magic. However, IN BOTH OF THOSE CASES, adding your God to the story adds nothing useful. Specifically, even if magic is real, and the universe did come into existence by supernatural means, we still have no reason whatsoever to assume that any god, let alone your particular God, was involved in the process. Perhaps the random appearance of universes is the inevitable result of magic. (Since we have never seen magic demonstrated, and obviously have no idea of how it might work, we have no particular reason to assume that not to be true...) I personally tend to consider "the big bang" to be the most plausible theory put forward so far but, since neither I nor anyone else was there to witness "the beginning", I'm willing to admit that I don't really know. Perhaps, since neither you, nor any other human being, was there to witness God creating the universe, and no current evidence of his existence seems to be available at all, perhaps you should admit that you don't "know" either.

54:30 This is why it is so incredibly important prosecutors get Trump into a courtroom and get him _convicted_ for his crimes. Until that happens we really can't say "he broke the law". We can only talk about allegations. It's how his supporters weasel out. And it's not enough that his companies have been convicted of crimes. Again, they can say, "well, that was his employees doing bad stuff." No. He needs to be convicted, personally, of felonies that require jail time, and he needs to serve that time. Even then his ardent supporters will just say the system is corrupt, not him. But those Republicans who have at least a small amount of intelligence will admit, to themselves if not in public, that he is indeed a criminal.

46:00 That Alabama church talk would be great! There are so many things one could talk about of course. But I'd be thrilled if someone simply had the chance to explain to them the very basics of who atheists are. Church goers are fed a constant stream of misrepresentations from their church leaders about what atheists think and what their motivations are. Just combating that would be great. I'd say, "Friends, you and I hold very different views about things. And just as you think I'm wrong I think you're wrong. But I'm not here to try to convince you to change. I have no desire to force my views on you or to force you to live your life by a standard you disagree with. I'm not trying to take away any of your freedoms ... UNLESS ... you think that you have a freedom to enforce your views and choices on me. That so-called "freedom" does not exist. But I'm sure most of you are better people than that." Then I'd talk a bit about what I see as the primary difference between theists and atheists, that the former are prepared to base their understanding of human nature and the universe on information gained primarily through some specific texts, accepted on faith, without a substantial basis on material evidence. The latter on the other hand cannot believe this way. Atheists require evidence derived from material reality on which to base their understanding of human nature and the nature of the universe. Last point - "Friends, I've heard too many apologists give highly inaccurate characterizations of atheists. This is all I ask of you. Please do not feel you know and understand how atheists think, what they believe and what they don't believe, until you have actually had some lengthy conversations with them, conversations in which you mostly ask questions, and then in which you listen very closely to their answers, with a sincere desire to understand them as they understand themselves."

Ok ok I don't like orange man either. But saying he said I just won't pay the taxes when Hilary said "he doesn't or something". Not -He said he used the same method that her and her constituents used and she didn't deny it because of course she does. That was dishonest dude. And Arron you should have called him out on that man. Or at least correct him. All those rich and powerful people do that. That's why he outright saying it in front for all to see was actually a really good thing. It's not Republican against Democrats like they make it look. It's powerful rich against hard working poor.

So religious peoples are the most practiced storytellers, some might say liars and some say deluded. This is an interesting tack.

I hold a belief that you’re neither atheist nor theist when you’re born. You must first have the proposition presented to you prior to taking a negative position against said proposition. Atheism in particular, is a negative position against the theist concepts of god. You cannot be an atheist without first being presented with the proposition of the concept of god. Being neutral by ignorance is by definition a neutral position and does not equal a negative position by proxy.

Until the "religious" stop having the power and the caring ones care enough to fight for sanity and truth... Belief in the monster force must die.

Atheism is sort of an equivalent of "undefined" in mathematics. x/0 is undefined. If you are asked what number x/0 is, there is no answer - x/0 is not a number - it is undefined. If you are asked what God atheists believe in, there is no answer - atheists have no God-belief - it is not-belief. The "all Gods are the same" is the belief of Unitarian Universalists. Some UU even believe that the universe itself counts, so even atheists are accepted, because atheists believe in reality.

"Atheism" is a word invented by religious people. It means nothing for those who don't believe in gods.

Actually Hinduism doesn't have injunctions against blasphemy and that kind of stuff, they believe all paths lead to God. I think Aron Ra needs to do his homework. Religions have always had some bad practices, but it's the Abrahamic religions that want to force it on people. Why with the Gothic Pagan aesthetic if AR doesn't believe in anything. ...I don't believe in Neopaganism, I just like the look.

"Actually..." did you seriously just start a comment with "Actually..." What a joke! 😂 Some Hindus are intolerant enough to maim & kill people if other faiths. Learn more and stop lying. Nonetheless, Thanks for engaging here in the comments - it helps boost the posts' ratings and reach! Cheers!
