Scientific Rebel
The world has never entirely escaped the Dark Ages. The Scientific Revolution may have led to the Age of Enlightenment, but to this day we have failed to confront the most dangerous of all Medieval institutions: organized religion.
This podcast series shines a spotlight on how organized religion became the ultimate weapon for oppression and how it set the stage for the rise of Christian nationalism, the greatest threat to American democracy since the Civil War.
It is time to embrace the mother of all inconvenient truths: faith is not fact.
It is time to rebel.
This is Peter Tchoryk. Welcome to the Scientific Rebellion.

Episode 1: Preface to the Rebellion
"Four Words to Start a Rebellion" is a multi-episode series available on the Scientific Rebel podcast and on the Scientific Rebel.com website.
This episode is the Preface to "Four Words to Start a Rebellion."
Do you feel powerless and have you given up hope in a political process that continually seems to fail you?
Are you exasperated that so many people seem to be sleepwalking as our country is being dragged back into the Dark Ages?
Do you consider yourself religious, but are ashamed to be associated with the amoral actions of others making that claim?
Are you facing persecution because of the color of your skin, desire for bodily autonomy, gender identity, or sexual orientation? Or perhaps for a general nonconformance to a white patriarchal Christian ethos?
If so, the "Four Words to Start a Rebellion" podcast series is made for you.
Buckle in, because you are about to embark on a journey to confront the greatest weapon ever unleashed on the world.
That weapon is religion.
You heard me right. We are going to take on organized religions and those who weaponize them. We are going to hold them accountable for fueling some of the worst crimes against humanity, and waging a war against critical thinking that continues to this day.
We are starting a Scientific Rebellion.
It is likely the boldest and most dangerous path we can take, yet it represents the single greatest opportunity we have to create a world where reason triumphs over racism; where the value of human beings is not measured by caste or coin; and where rules of law are not divined by men masquerading as messiahs.
This is Peter Tchoryk, and I invite you to join us. Let's give them something they've never seen before.
Four Words to Start a Rebellion is the property of me and the Scientific Rebel team.
