Same toxicity as evangelicals just different politics
Jul 29
I gave it 2 stars instead of 1 because I really do appreciate and enjoy the historical criticism, incites and theological perspectives I had not been exposed to before and some of the guests like John Dominic Crossan. But then you listen more and you learn that Tripp and his friends all live in an academic echo chamber and are every bit as toxic, intellectually dishonest, and hypocritical as the fundamentalist evangelical cult I was raised in. I was excited to discover this podcast along with a couple of others at first because I did go down a deconstruction journey from deep Southern Baptist roots. It’s just so disappointing and frustrating when Tripp and his guests talk about things with such certainty that they are quite obviously unqualified to address. I listened because I’m looking for people more educated than me in Biblical historical criticism and non penal substitutionary atonement theology, not to hear people less educated than me in business, politics, or technology moan about it. They have the same disease as the Jerry Fallwells of the world just a different manifestation. They preach love and tolerance and caring for the marginalized etc. but then you listen to them and they really mean love and tolerance and caring for people who agree with their politics. Those who don’t are the problem, same as the evangelicals I ran away from. I was hopeful to just find some normal ‘Christians’ or people interested in ancient religious traditions who could be respectful to everyone, even those who don’t agree with them. These are not those people.

Love this pod cast, but it does stretch my brain a bit. It always leaves me with more to research, think about, and try to understand.
