S.E. Cupp on Atheism and Penn Jillete on S.E. Cupp

S.E. Cupp breaks the stereotypes that have been foisted on both atheists and conservatives.  Here she takes questions on atheism from her viewers on the 5th hour of Glenn Beck's Insider Extreme.  She's conservative first and atheist second.  She doesn't define herself by her atheism and neither do I.



Social Conservatives think they own Conservatism, and Leftist think they own Atheism.  Both untrue.  S.E. Cupp can speak for us atheist conservatives any day.  We have a place in the big conservative tent and we also pull out the stakes of the left wing tent.   Their perennial fear mongering about the evil and powerful religious right hidden agenda melts away before us.  Only the right, home of libertarian ideals, truly defends the right to our own freedom of religion and self fulfillment.


Incidentally, I stumbled across this Penn Point Video where he also discusses Cupp's atheist conservatism.  Penn has got to be my favorite Libertarian and atheist.


I think I know what to ask her next week: S.E. have you seen this Penn Point episode?  Do you have any comments and will you be having him on your show any time soon?

An S.E. Cupp-date

I promised I would keep you posted on the cool stuff coming out of Glenn Beck's Insider Extreme.
Last episode S.E. Cupp showed us her speech at CPAC.  I think she is going places.  Good sense is universal regardless of your identity and she has plenty.  Take a look.

Her show is getting better too.  The first one was a little rocky but she is growing into her role and the production is also improving by leaps and bounds.  At this rate, I could see her show getting syndicated by SUNTV News one day.

Update: Todays show was a step back as far as production value.  Thats ok they'll get better and its the personalities that make it worth while anyway.

Atheist Conservative S.E. Cupp Joins Glenn Beck’s Insider Extreme

I was pleased and surprised when Glenn Beck announced that S.E. Cupp is joining Insider Extreme for a daily 1 hour segment.  I was so pleased in fact that I signed on for a month to see what its like. 

A Google search for ‘Conservative Atheist’ will inevitably lead you to a C-SPAN interview of S.E. Cupp.  I saw this interview a while ago and it has left me on the lookout for news about S.E. Cupp ever since.

This week’s S.E. Cupp show is live from CPAC (Kapak! She likes to say).  She interviewed many interesting conservatives but during the conversation she confirmed that she was indeed still an atheist.  It takes some guts to declare yourself an atheist live from CPAC.  I can safely say that I got my money’s worth just for that day.

Not only do you get 3 hours of Beck daily, but you also get an hour of S.E. Cupp, one hour of the other 2 guys (Pat and Stu, sorry guys but you know the score), and a whole bunch of documentaries and other special shows. 

Hooray!  Its like SUNTV News came early.  If you want a model for an online current events channel, here it is.  There is plenty of free stuff to sample at Glennbeck.com and if you don’t feel like spending money yet don’t worry.  I’ve been eying insider extreme for months before signing on.  I’ll keep you posted.

I’ve prepared a short video from the C-SPAN interview and the S.E. Cupp show dealing specifically with her atheism.   Freedom of religion and worship includes the freedom not to worship or be religious at all.  Only libertarian ideology truly protects atheists from the collectivizing tendencies of the leftward end of the political spectrum.
