In today’s episode of the Truth Wanted, Kelley Laughlin and Justin Frechette (Skeptic Spinn), work through some topics of veganism, fire balls, and contradictory Christian beliefs.
Nick asks if a decent person should take the lives of vulnerable, love capable beings for their own convenience. At what point is it wrong to use an animal as a means to an end? How would your perspective change if the industry were different and the animals were treated well? Where is the line drawn between sentient consciousness and non-sentient consciousness?
Robert in CA, describes seeing two fireballs that moved together when he was working outside, and when it happened the next night, he recorded them. How can we tell the difference between this and a meteorite? What is your hypothesis of what this could be? How do we know for sure that these balls are going in and out of reality, and the light is not just turning on and off? What are some normal and mundane explanations for this? Post your videos for what they are and leave them there.
Jon in Canada, is skeptical about ghosts, and finds it weird that Christians will not believe in spirits of the deceased but will believe in the ultimate supernatural force. There are explanations for what people think are miracles and how they have these beliefs.
Thank you for tuning in this week! Justin’s great dane joins us to close us out along with Scott Dickie to remind us of the question of the week: What would Jesus’ podcast be named?
