The Non-Prophets, Episode 21.24 airing Sunday, June 5th 2022 featuring Cynthia, Genevieve, Cindy Plaza and Teo el Ateo.Another heavy episode dealing with massive tragedy, religious abuses, and taxes. Even thinking about taxes makes me want to shudder!First up, Cardinal Glick would be proud of what a Catholic Diocese of Erie is trying to do. Get them while they are young! New programs push confirmation earlier and they are ramping up the indoctrination making sure to fill them pews!Then… oh yes we are talking about gun violence. There has been far too much. While we are not suggesting solutions, it would help to discover when and where all the many shootings have happened this year. Maybe someday we can do something about the United States' fatal love affair with deadly weapons.Next we take a look at the Southern Baptist Convention as I am sure they are looking to move in the right direction after all their scandals over the past couple years. Nope? Even more sex abuse, cover ups, and databases? Well, I am sure they will get on the right moral footing some decade.Lastly, we talk about Shit Internet Apologist Say, and boy does friend of the show Greg Locke have a lot to say. Look, he’s just tired of people telling him he can tell others how to vote because of tax statuses. So in a move of fire and brimstone, he dissolves his church tax exempt status! Are we sure this isn’t also a step in the right direction? Oh no wait it can’t be because he is still spouting off with things he likely shouldn’t be saying.Thanks for tuning in and we will see you next week!Segment 1: Catholic Diocese of Erie to launch earlier confirmation, new programs for kids and teens
