Kim McPhail Podcast

Take a walk with me as I dive into the Christian favorite fallback: "God did it." Big Bang? God did it. Human intelligence? Definitely God. Unexplained mysteries of the universe? Must be God. Never mind the thousands of other gods humans have invented throughout history—when Christians say “God,” they only mean their God. Isn’t that convenient?

In this unscripted outdoor episode, I break down: How “God did it” is just code for “I don’t know.” Why the Biblical God is just one of many invented by fearful, tribal humans. The rise of tribalism and religious conformi...

Part 1: Christian fundamentalism has inspired everything from anti-abortion hate to apocalyptic militias, yet many still believe atheists are the real threat. Let's dive into the uncomfortable reality of Christian extremism—and what the actual data says about hate, belief, and morality.

Part 2: Just when you thought it couldn’t get more absurd, we unravel the bizarre Cold War propaganda that equated atheism with communism. Spoiler: it’s less about logic and more about projection. From political pulpits to patriotic paranoia, we expose the hypocrisy behind this tired old comparison—and why it still lingers today.

They told you, "Jesus died for your sins." They told you "It’s not a religion. It’s a relationship." They told you, "God helps those who help themselves." And they told you, "The Bible is perfect, and Christianity never borrowed from paganism."

Oops.

In this four-part video series, I—an ex-Christian, now sarcastic atheist, take a thorough look at the sacred slogans and myths of Christianity that have been spoon-fed to us for centuries. This is not just a takedown; it's a guided tour through history, theology, politics, and the bizarre biblical fanfiction Christians keep q...

This is Kim McPhail of the Kim McPhail Podcast—coming to you LIVE for a no-BS deep dive into what religion never wanted you to question. In this live 3-part special, we break down: 💥 Part 1: Christians vs. Muslims—Why both claim their holy book is God's final draft and see the other's as divine knockoffs. 💥 Part 2: The real danger of believing your religion is the only true one—and how that idea tears apart societies, relationships, and your ability to think critically. 💥 Part 3: The mic-drop finale—Why there’s no verifiable evidence for God, Jesus, or the Adam & Eve story… just blind f...

In this three-part breakdown, ex-Christian turned atheist Kim McPhail tackles three of the most absurd phrases Christians love to throw at nonbelievers:

“How could you reject God?”

“It’s not a religion, it’s a relationship.”

And the idea that atheists always come crawling back.

Let’s get one thing straight: We didn’t reject God—we stopped believing in imaginary friends. We’re not mad at Jesus—we’re just tired of bad arguments, cherry-picked Bible verses, and desperate attempts to dodge real criticism with emotional catchphrases.

This video is for the deconst...

Welcome to your new favorite three-part heresy extravaganza! In this episode, we expose the Bible for what it really is. We partake in a critical examination of the Bible, particularly focusing on Leviticus as a cult manual, the concept of Jesus's sacrifice as a "blood cult," and the dangers of literal interpretations leading to harmful ideologies. This video is aimed at those questioning Christianity or seeking to understand its problematic aspects.

We mix history, sarcasm, scripture, and snark to show why blind faith in these ancient rules is not a virtue—it’s a red flag.

This video is a 4-part series exposing the harms of religious indoctrination on children. In this video I cover personal experiences, manipulative techniques, bias in adoption proceedings, and the scientific evidence of neurological damage.

It's not "just belief." It's coercion. It's fear. It's trauma. And it's happening to millions of children right now, under the protection of "religious freedom."

✊ We demand better. For the sake of the next generation, we must draw the line. Children are not blank slates for dogma. They are individuals who deserve truth, freedom, and safety.

Modern Christians say marriage is clearly between "one man and one woman." But apparently, nobody told King David... or Solomon… or Abraham… or Jacob… or literally most of the Old Testament's favorite guys. And while we're at it, let's talk about how Jesus suddenly decided polygamy was out, but somehow homosexual love was the real threat to society. Convenient.

Today, we expose the sloppy moral evolution of biblical marriage and the bizarre double standards Christians still cling to-while pretending their holy book has always been "clear." We're talking concubines, biblical shaming (of men for once!), Jesus's quiet rebran...

In this episode of Let's Read the Bible (So You Don't Have To), God's out here acting less like a loving father and more like Tony Soprano with lightning bolts. First, he lets Satan destroy Job's life just to prove a point. Kids no longer among the living, boils, bankruptcy - all to win a divine bar bet. But that's just God warming up.

Next, we crack open the story of Noah's Ark - where the God of Love decides he "regrets" making humanity and commits global genocide via flood. Millions wiped out, including babies, pregnant women...

Christianity used to be about sin, salvation, and the occasional potluck. But today? It's a wellness brand with a Bible app, a side hustle in MLMs, and a deep loathing for anyone who doesn't fit the white-picket-fence family values mold. In this episode, I break down how modern Christianity has become commodified, corrupted, and weaponized-especially against LGBTQ+ people, science, and critical thinking. This one's scathing. It's sarcastic. And if you're a Christian still clinging to this mess, it just might make you ashamed-as you should be.

Let's take a walk down mythology lane, where talking snakes write theology, salvation is a mood swing, and the Earth was apparently built like a snow globe. In this episode, we're diving deep into the secrets behind Christianity's most awkward and scientifically implausible beliefs-exposing the fossil-crushing, DNA-defying, contradiction-riddled myths that modern churches still try to preach with a straight face.

Christians often claim they are being persecuted, but it’s really the other way around. Minorities are the ones who are persecuted by the christian majority. When the Christian majority cannot overstep their boundaries, and someone questions their belief system, they cry “persecution”. Christianity has always sought to dominate over others.
