About this listen

This episode lays out why I left Christianity and why I think morality doesn’t need a god. I call out how shame and “black-and-white” rules harm people, contrast that with a harm-based, human approach to ethics, and explain how history—not just science—undercut my faith. I acknowledge useful ideas from religious traditions but push back on moral gatekeeping and Christian nationalism. Bottom line: we can grow, care for each other, and live ethically without religious authority—and we should stop weaponizing guilt.
