Doubting Dogma

Welcome to the Doubting Dogma podcast, the accompanying show to the Doubting Dogma blog, where we pair Molly Un-Mormon, a former Mormon now "doubting her dogma" (see what we did there?), and the corrupting hussy that told her about CogDiss, Marissa Alexa McCool. Together, they'll try to work out what's going on in the world while also having fun at the story's expense.   Molly and Ris talk about the recent controversy over the lousy song that sounds super date-rapey, then Molly tells about the struggle of female body armor.   Support Doubting Dogma at www.patreon.com/doubtingdogma Follow the Doubting Dogma blog at doubtingdogmablog.wordpress.com Marissa Alexa McCool is from the Inciting Incident podcast, our sister show, as well as Full Frontal Nerdity Deluxe and The Cis Are Getting Out of Hand ... rismccool.com Twitter- Molly - @DoubtingDogma, Ris - @RisMcCool Facebook - www.facebook.com/doubtingdogma This podcast is copyrighted (c) 2018, All Rights Reserved.

Stemming off of that, they also talk about the Head Cheeto's decision to act on his transphobic tweets by putting the trans ban back in place for the military.

I started hearing some static when we started recording after moving to a different room so we wouldn't get my husband gaming in the background. I thought it was just on my end, not on Zencastr's. It was still a fun conversation and I hope the static doesn't distract from it too badly.) This week, Andrew Torrez from the Opening Arguments Podcast (http://openargs.com/) joins Molly to talk about his deconversion and how he felt when he went with his wife to Mormon church when they had started dating. They finish the episode with a quick rundown of the Crazy Ark Debacle o
