Welcome to Truth Wanted! This week we host two of The Non-Prophets team, Kelley Laughlin and Cynthia McDonald. Maybe we’ll finally figure out the meaning of “spiritual but not religious”.

Chris in WI continues the “Humpy the ghost” story. (I thought Chris was saying HumpTy, oops) You are equating the ghost experience to energy but can’t seem to define what you mean. The points you bring up are questionable and seem to infer electricity to energy. Try to keep an open mind, if you conclude it’s a ghost you aren’t going to be open to other explanations.


Rich in NY thinks we spend too much time arguing specifics regarding miracle claims. He thinks we should challenge theists with praying for “real” miracles. People do accept things too easily. Use the socratic method to suss out if their claim holds up. Confirmation bias is frustrating.


AJ in WA claims he has seen UFOs, sasquatch, ghosts, and other cryptids. Aj goes on to delve into the different tribes of bigfoot. Interesting call, and do call back, but these are just recounting stories.


Top G in TX wants to clarify what people mean by spirituality and says starting by looking into the neuroscience of religion would help. We want to know what people are experiencing when they claim they did something spiritual. Top G defines spiritual as “an inner potential in your consciousness”. The examples you gave don’t point to the supernatural, more so to physiological. Consciousness is a property of the brain, how is that spiritual?


Thanks for joining us! This week's “We Want The Truth” segment is: Write a fortune cookie that is oddly specific.
