A few weeks back, we started looking at the Shepherd of Hermas, a foundational document for people interested in a mumbling facsimile of Christianity that’s based on soul-desiccating labor. Let’s dive into part two (emails in the first half), and start bringing up the Montanist heresy.

An audience member asked us about the Shepherd of Hermas last week. That gives us the perfect opportunity to examine and explain how the Early Church was a dumpster fire, just like today’s Church is. Let’s read from Hermas and see how God saves souls IN SPITE of the Church, not through it. The Shepherd…

Super’s vocal cords got jacked up in a Karate-related incident, so we don’t have a normal Godcast for you this week. But thankfully, he recorded a few days ago with Amerikaner’s own Buffalo Soldier, Gordon Kahl, on the 1998 smash hit Prince of Egypt earlier in the week. Enjoy!

So some Eastern Orthodox priest was talking MAD SMACK against Protestantism, and a friend sent in the video asking for a live react.

For this week’s episode, Super and gravy master BCM have a sprawling chat about the Heaven’s Gate cult. For some inexplicable reason, there are people that actually try to defend marshall applewhite; maybe they don’t know about his lifelong tendency to be a big fat gay failure everywhere he went.

So Noah curses Canaan in Genesis 9. Was it actually a curse on Ham, Canaan’s father? Does it justify enslaving blacks, or explain their behavior? Historically, does that add up? In one of the crunchiest, most data-heavy Godcast episodes to date, let’s do a deep dive into the topic and apply it to our circumstances…
Today Super is joined by Crux and DF to chat about autism. What is autism? What is the history of autism? Is there really a rise in the rates of autistic children, or is something else going on?
