We start with reviews of a couple of documentaries that we recommend. We then get into an increase in exocisms, Ark encounter ticket sales numbers and Mike Pences doctor resigns. My favorite headline ever is “Oklahoma Pastor Busted Running a White Supremacist Prostitution Ring”

Amanda has a book report to give that ties in to a previous story about Warren Jeffs. A new law has been put into place in Utah that creates harsher penalties for abuse if you are a polygamist. We also mention an ex-priest with a ton of child porn and torture pictures. And why weren't vaccines mentioned in the Bible?

So while Amanda was away, she happened to go past this little town in Michigan. She had no idea how close she was to being burned as a witch! We also wrap up a Satanic Church story from a couple years ago, talk about the Popes take on some child abuse in the church, and when doctors turn people away because of religious beliefs. http://deadstate.org/satanic-temple-argues-that-missouris-extreme-abortion-laws-violate-their-religious-freedomfbrefreshforce/
