Ep 501: Dying Out Loud! w/Dave Warnock

Maddy and Hertzey talk to Dave Warnock a former evangelical
Christian pastor and church leader for nearly 40 years, now an
Atheist. Dave's leaving the Christian faith came at huge cost
with the loss of almost his entire community of friends, and
family.


Earlier this year (February 26, 2019) Dave received the
devastating diagnosis of ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease), and this
precious and brief life became infinitely more precious and
incredibly brief.  Dave immediately decided to begin "Dying
Out Loud" by living life to the fullest - traveling to see as
much of the world as his body will allow, spending time with
people he knows and loves, meeting new people and learning their
stories, sharing  and most of all, just cherishing the
beautiful "moments" life offers to all of us.


So, what does one do when given a fatal diagnosis as an atheist?
Does one re-examine his earlier conclusion that God isn't
there...that there is no heaven...or hell? What kind of meaning
does life have when it becomes shorter than we thought it might
be?
