  • We all came from ... something like a lizard

    We all came from ... something like a lizard
    Jun 6 2025
    In this fossil-fueled episode of The Non-Prophets, the hosts unpack a new discovery: lizard-like footprints in Australia that could rewrite the timeline of tetrapod evolution by 40 million years. From the science of peer review to the philosophical weight of evidence, the panel dives into how science self-corrects, why tentative claims aren't failures, and how our distant past continues to shape our future. Also: religion, dinosaurs, road durability, and… Silurians?

    In this episode of The Non-Prophets, the panel highlights Faye “What” Albernas, a bold and vibrant voice for unity in the LGBTQ+ community amid growing hostility in Florida. Reporting from Miami Beach Pride, Albernas calls for connection and compassion, even while wrapped in color and confronting serious issues like HIV funding cuts and anti-trans legislation. The hosts discuss the tension between faith and queerness, the power of visibility, and how celebration can be an act of resistance.

  • Megachurch Pastor Sues for Retirement After Abuse Claim

    Megachurch Pastor Sues for Retirement After Abuse Claim
    Jun 2 2025
    In this powerful episode of The Non-Prophets, the panel tackles the disturbing case of Robert Morris—a megachurch pastor who used his influence to shield himself after years of sexually abusing a child. The team discusses how religious power structures protect predators, silence victims, and shield moral leaders from justice. From golden parachutes to biblical forgiveness, this story exposes the entitled arrogance of spiritual abusers and the complicity of the churches that defend them.
