Chad and Amanda discuss the mess that has become of the Oregon Militia group headed by Ammon Bundy who happens to be Mormon and but a bit of a Mormon spin on their protest. Also a woman kills in defense of her god and why don't more women come out as atheists. Finally we briefly talk about The Muslims that were fired for wanting time to pray during the work day. http://www.opb.org/news/article/explainer-the-bundy-militias-particular-brand-of-mormonism/ http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/01/05/so-now-muslims-can-be-fired-for-praying.html
