E198: How to Avoid Getting Hung Up on Bad Ideas w/ Matt Dillahunty
About this episode
This week on RfRx, we are joined by Matt Dillahunty, a well-known activist and lecturer on topics including skepticism, humanism, atheism, and critical thinking. Matt will be talking with us about his experiences examining his own beliefs, explaining how to critically evaluate claims, and answering your questions about religion, faith, and the supernatural. Bring your questions for Matt in this interactive show!
Matt was a fundamentalist, evangelical Christian for 25 years and planned on becoming a minister until his studies forced him to abandon his supernatural beliefs. Since leaving his faith he has traveled the world to lecture and debate on skepticism, humanism, and atheism to audiences at conventions and churches. He's spent the past 20 years hosting live, call-in programs to teach critical thinking skills and challenge religious and supernatural claims and privilege.
