This is the show from Wednesday April 14th, 2010.
BEST QUOTE OF THE SHOW:
SUMMARY:
* Nick is Back! After 13 years Bob Enyart and Nick Britton come together again on the air talking through their different worldviews. Those who watch BEL on Denver TV on the weekends (or on their DVD players anytime) saw Nick in studio from when he was 18 years old. Today, we heard an older but wiser Nick, and hopefully an older and wiser Bob. Look for a continuation of today's discussion on Friday! In the meantime, here are a few clichés that Nick and Bob enjoyed addressing:
Atheist Clichés Disproved in 8 Seconds or less!
Atheist Cliché 1: There is no truth!
Theist Rebuttal: Is that true? [1 second]
Atheist Cliché 2: There are no absolutes!
Theist Rebuttal: Absolutely? [1 second]
Atheist Cliché 3: Only your five senses provide real knowledge!
Theist Rebuttal: Says which of the five? [2 seconds]
Atheist Cliché 4: Only the physical realm is real!
Theist Rebuttal: That claim itself is not physical, so it's self refuting. [3 seconds]

Personhood is the most important human rights movement of your lifetime. Will you be one who fights to end the systematic dehumanization and murder of an entire class of citizen? Or will you stay in your comfort zone? If you live in any state in America, you can advance personhood via the 2010 ballot or in one of three different ways. If you live in Colorado join by calling or e-mailing Personhood Colorado or Colorado Right to Life.

BEST QUOTE OF THE SHOW:
I believe the political spectrum is defined on absolutes, absolute truth, absolute right and wrong. And so the right wing, as I define it and as I think it would be defined scripturally - the right believes in absolutes and the left believes in relativism. And so there's moral relativism - there is no truth, there are no absolutes and so on. And so you could be a socialist because God saying thou shall not steal is not relevant to you, so you can take as much money as you can get away with from your neighbors and use it to modify society however you please. It's up to you. There are no absolutes. And so I think absolutes are probably the best spectrum to use to evaluate political positions.
