Atheist Experience #710 22 May 2011 Post-Apocalypse

[geyza0711]

LISTEN TO ME!

[Chris197980CH]

Now it seems to make sense why the Stone Church wrote in and dissociate itself from Mark, not sharing his views in this case actually means Mark has become too reasonable. Nice to see that Mark is getting there, although slowly and I really hope he's getting the "devil's advocate" thing Tracy is doing here.

[Chris197980CH]

lol @ the religious guy trying to pretend he's an homophobic atheist

[hobbohippy2]

haha i loved the start scene

[liberalmatt]

Am dram at it's finest! Nice humour!!

[DeimosSaturn]

32:44 "DOES NOT COMPUTE. ERROR. ERROR. SYSTEM HAS PERFORMED AN ILLEGAL OPERATION. STACK OVERFLOW. EXTERMINAT! EXTERMINATE!"

[DeimosSaturn]

Man, living in this post apocalyptic dystopia is a real bummer. The other day I had to shoo away a bunch of cannibals with a shot gun. Now today the anti-christ president of the new world order just announced that all guns are now banned. This is what happens when you vote for black people.

[csportmaria]

When is Mark gonna declare his deconversion?

[PreparationH]

Studies shows! lol

[GMunny5]

Do theists all of sudden simply don't have the balls to call in anymore...

miss those days (sigh).....

[is3it7lonar]

The AE sound techs need to -- at long last -- realize what contact mics do.

[skeletonmom]

I have a dictionary that says that a homophobe is someone who fears or hates homosexuals and homosexuality. What was that guy's point?

[PM011]

But homophobia isn't fear!!

Lulz

[SinnFein4ever]

I don't believe for one moment, that "Charlie" was an Atheist.

What Atheist calls up just to say words to the effect of "Homophobe pride!" ?

And he just went round and round, repeating himself and contradicting himself over and over again, without listening to anything that they were saying to him (another clue that he is a Theist).

I can't believe that they let him eat up so much airtime.

[charles030981]

Mark is sooooooooo FAKE....I knew from the second episode

[SinnFein4ever]

It's the end of the world as we know it.

(and I feel fine ;)

[elliottsmithxo]

I'm starting to think Mark may be trolling as well. It's hard to believe someone could be that obtuse. And his constant and meaningless digressions seemed to be aimed primarily at extending his time on-air. In the past he's told stories about kids at his church being punished for being fans of the show and rebelling against their conservative parents and the church. This is the kind of comical scenario a troll would employ, and looking back it seems too good to be true. Hm.

[TomMSTie1138]

You know, as often as this show has actual technical difficulties, they shouldn't joke about them.

[Verosthenes]

Wow.. Charlie is an idiot. Holy crap... He keeps trying to deny the fact that he's afraid of gays by being instead disgusted.

He's disgusted at his fear more likely.

Why is he discussing this at all? What is there left to fear from a human being who loves another human being?

[dabigq]

I didn't used to think Mark was a fake, but now I'm pretty sure he is. Some of his responses are like punch lines to jokes, like Jesus being "a white guy with a beard".

[freetheworldof]

@dabigq I think that many people have had the very same thought. It is certainly looking very 'iffy'

[TheHogger89]

@freetheworldof He is either a member of the ACA being as jokingly retarded as possible, or he is a master troll.

[SinnFein4ever]

@freetheworldof

Have you heard the song "Apocalypso" by Jimmy Buffet?

[JoseATurner]

@dabigq He's real. You just gotta' have faith.

[Andraste77]

@TheOptimistPrime - yawn.

[RSVJosephV]

I miss the days when batshit Christians used to call. :-(

[pughead]

Sadly, I think Mark is a fake. A Canadian one at that. (hear how he says "a-boot")

[Noodul]

This Mark guy seems to be comming round. I'm glad he is unlocking his mind!

[dkinetik]

where is 709 ?? bin trying to find it 4 about a fortnight !!

[freetheworldof]

@dkinetik There was no show 709 (15 May) due to preemptiom  :(

[flyingfisbeefilms]

Mark -great call, keep going with your friends on the journey of enlightenment.

[DailyDahlia]

It seems to me Mark and his friends are starting to see the light and research the lies they've been told, and cannot believe all the information they have been deprived of all of their lives. He had to call, again, all flabbergasted to report his findings and all Tracy and Martin could do was tell him "we know... we already know".

[DailyDahlia]

"If you don't have a god you need a teddy-bear", Tracy Harris.

I want this printed on a t-shirt!!!

[xxxbilly]

what the fuck is Charlie doing.....

[TheZerothDegree]

"Studies show" that Charlie from L.A. is a crazy fucker :)

[Ni73sh4d3]

Oh mark, you are soooooo close! Just keep calling and you will learn more!

[100PercentGreen]

@31:00....That has to be the funniest thing I've ever heard an idiot say.

[Ahsharya]

awwww poor mark he sounds like a 7 year old trying to grow

[TheNamesBettyNyahhh]

I love the progression of calls from Mark, you can detect the ever brightening glow of enlightenment blossoming in his mind. Just wonderful.

[EternallyExistent]

there should be a movie about mark's transformation....

[Verosthenes]

Wow...Mark is really progressing. Good for him! Finally, he's starting to enlighten himself.

[fangjian]

20:42 hahahaha Poor Martin. -I'm gonna cover my face right now so you don't see the look on my face

[rEdRoLiCa]

They NEED to stop giving this Mark time on air. He is a total bore and made me turn off this week whilst watching the show live. If I was cynical, I might even say he's a plant. Why would they give this idiot (and yes, im sorry but, he is) as much air time as they do? It's now become ridiculous.

[t1mel1ne]

I'm not homophobic. I'm not afraid of my house.

[myjizzureye]

@t1mel1ne Teeheehee

[Andraste77]

Mark has definitely made some strides toward reason. Listening to him is a bit painful though - his thinking isn't very clear and he doesn't really know how to express himself. But it's still amazing to have this transition going on in front of us - you can hear the wheels turning. But man, has he latched onto the word "indoctrination" or what?

[lesterismyname]

Mark is gettin close. This has been very interesting to watch his transition into at least questioning his faith.

[grotmail1]

Did anyone work out what Charlie from LA was talking about?

Nonsensical gibberish. Why did they engage with him?

[snigadigdig]

I give it a maximum of a month before Mark becomes an atheist. Been quite interesting watching his transition into thinking rationally. Can't wait for the episode when he finally calls in to say "I'm an atheist now"

[t1mel1ne]

@snigadigdig The best one was when he said "so i should just decide for myself whether something is good or bad?". lol. YES!! haha. he's gettin there bless him.

[AmericanCritiquer]

How was your drive in?

Fine, I thought there'd be more zombies though. HA!

[davelantor]

First !!

And my soul is been raptured ... i just cant notice it yet ...

Dooms day Update: God called, he will be running a bit late .. cya all on October :D
