I'm not rejecting God, I’m rejecting YOU!

"I’m not rejecting God. I’m rejecting YOU.” That’s the core idea in this episode of Mike Drop. Host Mike Smithgall breaks down why most atheists aren’t denying the existence of a god, they’re questioning the authority of those who claim to speak for one. From televangelists to politicians invoking divine will, this episode explores how human claims of divine authority often go unchecked, causing real-world harm. If you've ever wondered what atheists are really pushing back against, this episode lays it out, reasoned, direct, and unfiltered.💬 Viewer Discussion Question:What’s the most questionable claim you’ve ever heard someone make "in the name of God"?📚 Chapter Headings / Topics• The Burden of Proof: What Atheists Actually Believe• Where’s God?
