Leaving religion can be difficult. It may lead to conflicts with
family and friends and the loss of social support--and the more one
is involved the deeper the loss. Clergy who silently doubt often
feel trapped in a double life. They cannot continue to preach with
conviction but they have come to depend on their congregations for
financial support. Admitting their doubt could mean losing
everything. Ex-minister Dan Barker, (co-president of the Freedom
From Religion Foundation and author of the Good Atheist) knows
first hand the challenges faced by atheists in the pulpit. He joins
us to talk about The Clergy Project--an online support network for
ministers who have begun to question the faith. Also on this
episode: We discuss the physical cost of leaving groups like the
Jehovah's Witnesses on this weeks "God Thinks Like You."
Doubtcaster Justin Scheeber takes on William Lane Craig for this
weeks Counterapologetics and Fletch brings us a tribute to the
Valkyries for a new Polyatheism segment.
