In this episode Jas and her Dad explore:

Halloween and whether or not Christian kids ought to celebrate it.

Children brainwashed into religion: Is introducing a child into religion a method of brainwashing or could there possibly be more to it.

Does the Bible really forbid people from getting tattoos?

Is rejection of God simply a cognitive mistake? If so, should it be punishable?

Is suicide a guaranteed ticket to Hell and would that suggest Hell was God's plan for certain people all along?

Come with us on today's journey as we scour the culture!
