  1. The Controversial Truth About Jesus That No One Talks About

    The Controversial Truth About Jesus That No One Talks About

    What does devotion mean to you? Is it an act of compassion, or can it take forms that inflict harm in the name of faith and tradition? In this episode of Sustainable Tea with Shreya, Shreya Ghodawat sits down with Kameron Waters, the filmmaker behind the eye-opening documentary Christpiracy. They navigate the complex and often uncomfortable intersection of faith, tradition, and ethics, unpacking one of the most controversial topics: animal sacrifice. They ask hard questions: Why do practices like animal sacrifice persist in modern times? How do cultures reconcile these rituals with the growing demand for ethical standards? And is it time to rethink what devotion means? This isn’t an easy conversation—it’s an unflinching look at the blood-soaked history of religious rituals and the moral dilemmas they raise in today’s world. Along the way, they also dive into the filmmaker’s journey, the backlash his work has faced, and the powerful message he hopes to amplify. Whether you're rooted in faith, an advocate for animal rights, or simply curious about how traditions shape modern values, this episode will challenge you to think differently and maybe even inspire change. 🎥 Don’t miss it.
