#402 โ€“ Michael Malice: Thanksgiving Pirate Special

And I was reading all this criticism of the Bible. And I was like, look, this is in there. Look at this in there. And he put his hand on my shoulder and he says, Michael, there's nothing you're going to tell me that's going to make me lose my faith. And that was a very self-aware and profound thing to say.

#402 โ€“ Michael Malice: Thanksgiving Pirate Special

As I've gotten older and I know lots of religious people, there's no part of me that thinks they're wrong or they should be mocked. It also reminds me of when people sneer at addicts in recovery, they're like, alcoholism is a disease, it's a choice. It's like, wait a minute, you don't know what it's like to have your entire life ruined by drugs or alcohol.

And if you have to tell yourself, I have this disease and blah, blah, blah, and that keeps you from drinking and now you're a moral upstanding person who's reliable and takes responsibility for their actions, I don't see the harm at all. So I think this kind of activist atheism is- I don't agree with it whatsoever. And I do not like that quote at all. But otherwise, big fan of Marx.

I mean, I think there's a fan of mine, I forget who it was, apologies. He had this great quote. He goes, and this is me talking. He goes, the games people play to feel smarter than others is depressing and annoying. And I think this kind of fedora in an atheism is... is a good example. Because here's the other thing. If you've proven that someone else is stupid, that doesn't mean you're smart.

And sneering in all forms. Yes. In general is just not great. That's one of the things I block out people on social media instantly. You're not going to sneer at me in my space. You could sneer at me all you want in your space, but I'm not putting up with your crap. I don't know you. My space, great social network. Is that on 6th Street? AWOL.com. That's how Lex comes.
