In this episode of Breakfast with a Heathen, Mike answers real questions from listeners about debating religion, losing friendships, and navigating those awkward “bless your heart” moments. From being told you’re “taking scripture out of context” to realizing you never truly believed, this discussion explores how atheists and agnostics experience conversations with the faithful.

He also unpacks the emotional side—grief over lost friendships, the desire for belief, and the strange mix of humor and tension when religion lingers in daily life. This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt misunderstood for thinking differently or tired of being told to “understand the context.”
