The Return of the King Walt 2013-05-05 | Wow! Where do I even start? Well, too much has happened to cover in one video, but this is just a quick video to fill you in on some of what has happened in the past year.Check me out on Facebook:http://www.facebook.com/kingheathenand on this news segment:http://www.wtvm.com/story/22154951/special-report-losing-our-religionThe story is heavily weighed in favor of the religious side (of course) but I was selected to represent the "Nones" for my area.

Richard Dawkins and the 5 Bridges of Darwinism plus other public appearances Walt 2012-03-29 | So there was the Reason Rally, the Atheist meetup in PA, OH, etc...why wasn't I there and do I plan on making the next one!? Well, hopefully now that things have changed for me, I can make some of the future events. I DID, however, make it to a lecture in Duluth, GA at the Gwinnett Center by Richard Dawkins on the effects of the study of evolution on the world as a whole.

Pat Robertson says, Alzheimers is a kind of death! Walt 2011-09-20 | In a recent 700 Club episode, religious fundamentalist, Pat Robertson, took a very controversial position on whether or not you are required to stay married to someone with Alzheimer's disease.There are many sources for this info...I liked this one since it's Christian friendly...(understatement!)http://www.christianpost.com/news/700-club-addresses-pat-robertson-alzheimers-quotes-as-debate-continues-55751

The NASCAR Prayer, Joe Nelms, and his smoking hot wife! Walt 2011-08-02 | On an outing to visit family, this opening prayer for a NASCAR event was brought to my attention by my religious brother who also found it to be ridiculous...but for different reasons. Just wait till you get a load of this guy!Recorded July 23, 2011 in Nashville, TNhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J74y88YuSJ8
Ground Zero Mosque and Fox News Stupidity! Walt 2011-07-15 | While the courts seem to be settled on this issue, that just isn't enough for some people. Fox News brought on one of the people STILL fighting this losing battle today to explain why the mosque should not be allowed to be built....Wait till you get a load of this one!Watch the clip of the interview here:http://aclj.org/ground-zero-mosque/standing-with-9-11-hero-tim-brown-to-stop-ground-zero-mosque
Multiple Beer Reviews and where Ive been lately Walt 2011-07-01 | I took a vacation recently with the family and in the process got to stop by a beer tasting event. There were some AWESOME choices sampled. I also give you a few brief clips from the vacation.
Gay Marriage passes in New York and David Tyree is a dickhead! Walt 2011-06-25 | HOORAY!!!!! New York adds its name to the list of states approving gay marriage, meanwhile...Former New York Giant David Tyree proves what a dumbass bigot he is!Link to the story quoting Tyreehttp://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d820667f4/article/tyree-would-swap-giants-super-bowl-win-to-ban-gay-marriagePlease swing by and congratulate ProfMTH on his future nuptials as well!http://www.youtube.com/ProfMTH
The Word of God? Part 4: Eyewitnesses Walt 2011-06-22 | Was the New Testament written by eyewitnesses? The answer to most of the books is an easy "no" because the author the books are attributed to are by people that admit that they never knew Jesus prior to crucifixion. But what about the Gospels? Were they witnesses to Jesus' life and miracles including the resurrection? If this series has taught you anything, you can probably already guess what the answer is going to be!Please keep in mind: This video series has not been intended to claim that the Bible contains anything that disproves the god of the Bible or to claim that Jesus wasn't the son of that god. I'm merely questioning the fundamentalist claim that it is the 100% inerrant "Word of God." Rather than point to the errors and contradictions that have been debated for centuries, I've simply pointed out FACTS about how the Bible was written, copied, and put together (which almost every Biblical scholar will agree with) that shows that it's accuracy is certainly in question.
Harold Camping finally speaks post-rapture! Walt 2011-05-24 | So, two days after the "Rapture" comes and goes unnoticed, Harold Camping decides to make a comment. Board members from his radio network have called for an apology. Will they get it? Will he do as I suggested and return the money to the families that donated their savings? YEAH RIGHT!!!! http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/under-god/post/harold-camping-says-may-21-2011-was-invisible-judgment-day-world-will-end-october-21-2011/2011/05/23/AFZmc99G_blog.html Thanks to "IntelligentProbe" for bringing this to my attention.
A Message for Harold Camping... Walt 2011-05-23 | Now that the dust has all settled and Harold Camping is in seclusion to avoid the media onslaught that is headed his way, I have a simple solution to Harold's dilemma...RETURN THE MONEY!
Rapture on the way...PARTY TIME!!! Walt 2011-05-15 | I LOVE when people are so confident of these end days kinds of claim...it makes the fun of them being wrong so much more satisfying the day after!!!! See what they have to say themselves about the upcoming May 21st Rapture date in the links below and join me on BlogTV on May 22nd and possibly on May 19th. http://www.ebiblefellowship.com/outreach/tracts/may21 http://www.familyradio.com/index2.html http://www.blogtv.com/people/kingheathen
Atheism and Naturalism Walt 2011-04-24 | This is a review of a book sent to me by a long time subscriber and cool guy that tried to explain why naturalism (and therefore atheism) is the preferred world view for people like ourselves. I do recommend the book despite being critical of it. I think that most people (if nothing else) will find it a great source of direction to information if they are looking for it in any facet of the debate between the religious and the naturalist (as he frames it).The book is available for download at:http://www.amazon.com/Atheism-Naturalism-Nicholas-Covington/dp/0557070465/ref=sr_1_3?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1301601781&sr=1-3
When you KNOW its a scam... Walt 2011-04-22 | This is a follow up to my "iRenew vs Chubby Bunny" video with commentary on people that run scams with the full awareness that they are running a scam.
iRenew vs the Chubby Bunny! Walt 2011-04-15 | This is a parody of the iRenew bracelet commercials. This product is a scam. In a follow up video, I will demonstrate how the "trick" works and just how lame this company is to offer such a fraudulent product.Yes, my son has a mohawk. Teenagers...what do you do?
Sunday Alcohol Sales in Georgia Finally? Walt 2011-03-21 | The GA Senate recently passed a bill to allow for local communities to decide if they want to allow alcohol sales on Sunday. This unconstitutional restriction of American freedom which is entirely based on religious dogma...and not even good dogma...has been long over due for a repeal. Now that 47 other states have already done it, will Georgia finally become the 48th? Or will we let Connecticut or Indiana beat us to it?Read the articles referenced here:http://www.ledger-enquirer.com/2011/03/17/1501267/georgia-legislature-sunday-alcohol.htmlhttp://www.times-herald.com/local/Sunday-alcohol-sales-passes-Senate--Seabaugh-votes--no-Videos on the former governor's failed attempt to end a drought via prayer.Praying for Rainhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8M19r4x60gPraying for Rain follow up videohttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7ZbqR86olw
Defending one god against another (follow up) Walt 2011-03-19 | I got 5 responses at the time of this recording. Check them out if you like. In this video I respond to comments made in two of them.Bossman103http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wl-xYjL08TsRationalRoundTablehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXnL6l57DpwThe other 3http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1126CrTUq5khttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOeIo9TDehUhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-ZPlG3Ltk4
BYU Honor Code and Religious Fundamentalism Walt 2011-03-04 | Every BYU student, faculty member, etc is required to abide by an absolutely RIDICULOUS standard of behavior that is beyond reason. If you haven't already heard about this...you might want to sit down...it's SUPER-retarded!
Marriage, no longer to be defended! Walt 2011-02-25 | The "Defense of Marriage Act" has been under fire since its inception, but now it appears to be fighting a losing battle. The White House has no decided NOT to continue challenging law suits against the act. How good of news is this? Well, only minor, but it's the beginning of the end...Read for yourself the White House statement:http://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/2011/February/11-ag-222.html
The Rapture is NEAR!!!!!! Walt 2011-02-16 | Since the supposed life of Jesus, apocalyptic dates have been chosen by those that thought they knew when the world would end...yet they have all been wrong. No big surprise that there is yet ANOTHER that thinks they know when it will happen and they base it on things found in the Bible. Their date of choice is in about 3 months from the date of this video's release...Any takers for their side that want to place a bet on them being right? I'll even give you 1000000 to 1 odds! Watch TheThinkingAtheist's video on this group here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJQFVqnlZTw But what DOES the Bible say about the end of the world? Is it coming "soon?" Or have we already missed it?
Proving one god against another Walt 2011-02-04 | I think a disconnect in communication between atheists and theists occurs because theists try to use arguments that they themselves wouldn't be convinced of yet are surprised when we aren't convinced of them.I would love to hear from a theist what they would say to someone of another faith to convince that person that one of the two gods is or is not real and how they would respond to the same comebacks that religious people give us when we challenge the existence of a particular god.All video responses are very welcome.(Something tells me this will be like my "Proof of Creationism" video where I asked for evidence FOR creation and not attempts to give evidence AGAINST evolution...I didn't get any.
Sylvia Browne and other Psychics Walt 2011-02-01 | What makes people buy into the claims of psychics? More than that...how do people buy into the claims of psychics of people that have been discredited over and over again?! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylvia_Browne Brinks Trunk story http://www.justnews.com/news/18595596/detail.html TheUnmaskedMagician's video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypDQBf4CxrY 2009 Predictions by Sylvia Browne from the "Realpsychichere" channel http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-56lERwiZtI 2010 predictions: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phPFaFIsuNg
Settling up with JoesRambles Walt 2011-01-28 | This is the "pay up" video for the bet I lost with Joe of JoesRambles. While I know most of you weren't interested in the college football pick videos...I did, at least, try to make this one humorous. So if you choose to watch, I hope you enjoy!
Genesis18 Walt 2011-01-07 | With penises properly circumcised, it's time to determine the fate of Sodom!
Devil Music!!!! Walt 2010-12-22 | This is yet another of the "unanswered questions" that I referred to in my "How I Became an Atheist" video.NO, THIS IS NOT A REASON THAT I LEFT THE RELIGION! I CONTINUED TO BELIEVE IN THE BIBLE FOR MANY YEARS AFTER THE EVENTS DESCRIBED!This just meant as an insight as to how I started to realize that the answers I was being told were wrong and that I needed to look into it all more deeply.PS-Jezuzfreek777!!!!! I'm calling you out on this! You have a similar story that you have told me about that I asked you to do a video on...yet you never did. I think your viewers would enjoy hearing about it.
Dont Ask; Dont Tell - REPEALED! Walt 2010-12-19 | After 17 years of discriminatory policy, "Don't Ask; Don't Tell" has been voted down by both the House and the Senate making it inevitable to be ended by President Obama (finally) So what does the opposition have to say for itself now?
Tis the season! Walt 2010-12-07 | As another year ends, we celebrate the birth of a new sun (AKA - The Winter Solstice....AKA "Christmas") and I talk about a very generous gift all of you gave me! Thanks to ALL of my subscribers. I appreciate you all watching. I'm hoping now to get the output back up with the purchase of this new gadget.
Addendum to: How I became an atheist Walt 2010-11-21 | This is a long overdue follow up to the most common response I get on my "How I became an atheist" video. That video was a summary of a 15 year long process trimmed down to just 10 minutes. This video is meant to correct the misconception of what happened during just the first 5 of those years. BY NO MEANS is this meant as "the whole story" or anything else and BY NO MEANS is this the thing that made me an atheist...I can not make that any more clear. This is ONLY the thing that made me start to research the Bible...THAT'S IT!
Dont Ask; Dont Tell - UNCONSTITUTIONAL! Walt 2010-10-21 | This is a follow up to a video I did before about Lt. Col. Farenbauch who was being challenged on his enlistment due to defending himself against allegations which led to him admitting homosexual relations with another man.Details here:http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/39743668/ns/us_news-lifemore details:http://www.newsweek.com/2010/10/19/is-obama-s-excuse-for-not-repealing-don-t-ask-don-t-tell-legitimate.htmlSadly, this appears to be an issue over who gets CREDIT for ending the failed policy of "Don't Ask; Don't Tell." I'm truly EMBARRASSED by the Obama Administration's actions over this issue.
Theists Say the Dumbest Things - praying for victory Walt 2010-10-11 | So what IS the purpose of prayer? WILL God answer ANY prayer? Even if it's done in a group as the Bible states?This is a TRUE STORY of something I saw with my own eyes that blew me away in regards to what some people think prayer is for!
The Plot to Destroy God Walt 2010-10-08 | ...and other stupid slogans used by the religious to try to rally their troops... Does it help or hurt them in the long run? Sure, the fundies will perk up their ears and read more, but does it do anything to to the moderates? Do any of them see through these fear-mongering tactics? I'd love to get responses from other theists as to what THEY think about these kinds of money raising schemes.
Dont Ask; Dont Tell....Dont WORK! Walt 2010-09-16 | My apologies for the poor grammar in the title...I just thought it worked...The video speaks for itself, check out the links for the rest of the story:Gay decorated Lt. Col waits for his day in courthttp://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/38729418/ns/us_news-lifeJudge declares DADT unconstitutionalhttp://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/39089475/ns/us_news-life
Islam and the news... Walt 2010-09-11 | Several stories get all rolled into one...weird how that can happen... This is just my take on the stories, I know you've all hear this before, but I am trying to take a new look on it for all parties concerned.
The Word of God? Part 3: Adding to the Story Walt 2010-08-10 | So after addressing how the books that were chosen were selected and then how they were copied, we can accept that MISTAKES were made...but were there any INTENTIONAL changes? Much of the details covered can be found (at least in part) in Bart Erhman's book "Misquoting Jesus." Other bits and pieces are notated in the video. The following are a few links to some of the other sources mentioned: http://scriptorium.lib.duke.edu/papyrus/texts/manuscripts.html Dating the Oldest New Testament Manuscripts by Peter van Minnen http://www.bible-researcher.com/adult.html John 7:53-8:12 The story of the adulteress http://www.biblica.com/niv/accuracy/niv-kjv-verses.php Portion from Chapter 14: Isn't the King James Version Good Enough? (The KJV and the NIV Compared) By Edwin H. Palmer
The Word of God? Part 2: Spreading the Word Walt 2010-08-03 | Please start with "Part 1: What got in" I needed to cover this in detail (and I edited out almost 15 minutes of the duller material) so that it was well established that copyists could and did make errors in duplicating the texts. To my Christian viewers: A few of you complained that my first part of this series was just me "bashing Christianity." I'd like you to take a very clear notice that at no point in the first part or in this part do I make ANY claims against Christianity. I merely cite historical knowledge (almost all confirmed by CHRISTIAN scholars) about how the current version of the Bible came to be. Nothing in this series thus far suggests your religion is false or that your God isn't real. ONLY that the Bible may not be the "100% inerrant word of God."
The Word Of God? Part 1: What got in? Walt 2010-07-25 | This is the first of several parts where we will look at what we know about the Bible and address the ideas that many have about it in regards to it being "The 100% inerrant word of God." This series isn't necessarily intended to address the "truth" or "falsehood" of the Bible, but simply "Who wrote it?" I mention several sources for things in the video, but if you want an easy source for the majority of it, I recommend Bart Erhman's "Misquoting Jesus."
Why do you go to church? Walt 2010-07-12 | Have you ever considered why churches exist? Why both "preaching to the converted?" It's actually a 2000 year old tradition based on something that no one today would want to be associated with...guess what it is!This is the intro into my upcoming series "God's Word?" I hope you enjoy this video as well as the upcoming series. It may end up my most ambitious to date!
The Phantom Penis! Walt 2010-07-08 | A prophecy made...a prophecy fulfilled...so do you now believe it? Why not? If you don't...then why should I about your claimed prophecy?
To those who think that what we do is pointless...

Spiritual Death or God LIED!? Walt 2010-05-19 | This video addresses the issue of Gen 2:17 where God declares that if Adam eats of the Fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil that he will SURELY DIE in THAT DAY. Many Christians claims this means a "spiritual death" but is that true? Let's find out if that explanation has any scriptural backing!Web site mentioned:http://www.godandscience.org/doctrine/spiritualdeath.html#4TzOa6Ih370d
