S02E01 Why Gen X Walked Away from the Church
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of The Mighty Philbert, I explore how Gen X deconstruction didn’t begin with debates or atheist books, but through culture: music, movies, comedy, and lived experience. Long before we had words like “deconstruction,” we were already questioning authority, certainty, and fear-based faith.
This isn’t a theology debate or a political rant.
It’s a generational reflection.
We look at:
• Why Gen X never trusted authority
• How music, movies, and comedy shaped our skepticism
• Why fear-based Christianity didn’t work on us
• How many of us didn’t leave in anger — we just stopped showing up
This video also serves as the welcome and foundation for The Mighty Philbert going forward — a channel focused on Gen X culture, skepticism, and faith deconstruction without drama, tribalism, or outrage.
If this story feels familiar… you’re not alone.
