  • My favorite

    I can’t think of anyone who’s been more influential in my theological/life outlook than PZ over the last few years. He’s so funny, so insightful, so interesting, and he’s been so kind, gracious, and encouraging to me. He’s wonderful, and so is his podcast.

  • What?

    I have never listened to someone so out of touch with the concept of the power of the grace of God than this man. Don’t waste your time. Antiquated religious ideas quite literally spat into a microphone.
