Another long call with Mark, a member of the Austin Stone Community Church ( http://www.austinstone.org ), who expresses his fear that children who watch The Atheist Experience will literally burn in hell.
Mark previously called in during show #695 (with Russell Glasser and Martin Wagner) and show #696 (with Matt Dillahunty and Jeff Dee). This appears to be the same caller as "Andrew" from show #686 and "Mike" from show #693.
This is a long excerpt from The Atheist Experience #704 of April 10, 2011 (topic: "a couple of news items") with Russell Glasser and Tracie Harris. The complete episode is archived on Blip.tv:

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.

Comment by Napoleon Bonaparte on April 15, 2011 at 6:39pm The theist was sincere in his beliefs and concerned for his children. He sees Atheists and Atheism as a threat to his family and referred to hatred as expressed by his congregation. I think the presenters being former religious people handled it well. I hope his churchs global mission doesn't do too much harm to anyone. The show was entertaining and I have bookmarked this page.
Is there a show specifically for Atheists and people who have never embraced religion ?

OK. I am venting. My mother died two weeks ago. She was a “god fearing christian.” Before her death she refused all medical treatment. She wanted to be left alone. She even refused to speak with my brother who is a methodist minister. He is a pip, let me tell you! I suspect she did not believe, but a woman born in her time could not and did not state her actual beliefs. This is the opening salvo to all christians; FUCK YOU! I had so many people come and tell…

This probably should not have shocked me as much as it did (especially since I am in Texas). I actually thought my coworkers were playing a joke on me because they know I am an atheist. Sadly, this was no joke. This actually happened.
I work in a psychiatric hospital. The doctors who admit patients are general MDs. (Psychiatrists see patients after admission) Yesterday evening we received several calls from irate parents. A new doctor who was doing admissions yesterday actually…

What do you think of this,
Nathan Young,
No Jason Torpy it is you that should be banned for promoting atheism, a belief that has no foundation in reality and zero proof behind it. The letter was a mockery of your atheist beliefs. I request to the board here that they remove Jason for his unverifiable beliefs in atheism for which he has no proof other than his arrogance. The letter was a mockery of atheism. Atheism is stupid and it should be mocked and it…

What do you think of this Facebook comment?
Nathan Young to Jason Torpy,
for once you and I can agree on something. We should disrespect beliefs that are untenable such as the belief that there is no God. Indeed for me to respect you Jason, I cannot respect your belief in non-belief in atheism. Your atheism comes across as arrogrance, smugness, and self righteous. Indeed after reading "An Open Letter to My Religious Friends" I penned one…
