Losing Our Religion

A former megachurch pastor leaves religion behind to rid himself of the exclusivity created by its dogmas in order to open himself up to learn from the lives, stories, and experiences of everyone else. To prove we are more alike than we think and we can all get along no matter what we believe. Topics range via guest's experiences growing up in religious homes, where Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Secularism, Judaism, Hinduism, Tao, Heathenism, Satanism, Wicca and all forms of dogmas and ideologies programmed into the mind of a child. What happens when that child becomes an adult? What good things do they hold onto? What things do they lose? Where are they now, and in what ways are they finding the peace that we all desire, with or apart from the religions they were raised with? Losing Our Religion is a wild ride with a community of diverse humans each seeking their desired life away from dogma and exclusivity.

Losing Our Religion is a hilarious and candid look at religion and culture, with former pastor, now commune living lover of sinners, Zac Gandara.  As he has drinks with former religious freaks, and others he used to shun.  Gays, Anarchists, Queers, Atheists, Transsexuals, Punk Rockers, and the rest of us that are considered rejects on this island of misfit toys.

This is part two of our time with Chad discussing fundamentalism and Chad being an atheist. Fundamentalism is something that frustrates us both and is not solely limited to religion. You can be a fundamentalist about anything.

Fundamentalist:
relating to or advocating strict adherence to the basic principles of any subject or discipline

Maybe this isn’t so much an episode about atheism as it is a hope that we could end extremism. Although we discuss and sometimes debate the difference between creationism and Darwinism, we find ourselves very near one another in the understanding of these things.

In an information age, when we have abundant access to information we often can find it easier with this information to become fundamentalists. Not to mention Star Wars Nerds!

It's amazing how in the end we understand each other and begin seeing closer to eye to eye on our humanity and understanding.
