    In this episode William speaks with Professor Ian Bradley about the updated release of his book God is Green. They discuss the anthropocentrism which is often present in many discussions around climate, the original greenness present within Christianity, how the narrative of the fall plays in to the topic of climate action and the implications of the concept of the cosmic Christ and a panentheistic approach to Christian theology.

    Bonus - Cussing, Smoking and Tattoos-Oh My!

    In this bonus episode William has a conversation with Melanie from Holy Heretics and Katherine from Uncertain Podcast to discuss why swear words, smoking and tattoos were considered to be sinful within evangelicalism despite the severe lack of condemnation found in the pages of scripture.  They discuss the cultural influences and power differentials that made swearing, smoking and having tattoos clear indicators of where an individual was in their walk with God.  They also discuss how all this relates to class and gender and how the Church often takes more of a steer from culture than it likes to admit when it comes to morality.   Follow Holy Heretics on Instagram @holyhereticspodcast : https://www.instagram.com/holyhereticspodcast/?hl=en Follow Uncertain Podcast on Instagram @uncertainpodcast : https://www.instagram.com/uncertainpodcast/?hl=en

    20 - Religion Shouldn’t Hurt with Troy Moore Hart

    In this episode William speaks with Troy from Religion Shouldn’t Hurt. They discuss why the statement religion shouldn’t hurt should be uncontroversial and be a unifying belief no matter our background, faith or belief. They discuss the recent campaign that Troy organised to spread this message to help amplify the stories of victims of religious and spiritual abuse. They also discuss how religious and non religious people can work together based on common compassion rather than common belief.
