Fear and Phobias Queen of the Sciences

- Christianity
Death! Disaster! Panic in the streets! In this episode Dad and I try to understand how fear and fear-mongering have come to grip our wealthy and (historically speaking) unprecedentedly free societies. Toward that end, we also explore the metastasis of the psychiatric diagnosis of debilitating phobias to a biopolitical strategy for accusing and shutting down anyone who doesn't agree with or approve of certain things. But above all, it's a call to the courage of conscience for anyone tired of having the bullies run the show. Fear not! The Lord is with you.
Notes:
1. Related episodes: Transfiguration, Perpetua and Felicitas, Private Public and Propagandistic
2. Read, mark, and inwardly digest Luther's commentary on the First Commandment in the Small Catechism to "fear, love, and trust in God above all things"!
3. Horn, People Love Dead Jews
4. The Scriptural Reasoning inter-faith dialogue project
