Blasphemy

Chris Setty

Humans have shown themselves capable of believing almost anything. The amount of information available to us hasn't seemed to quell our insatiable need to create and believe alternate realties, conspiracies, spiritual beliefs, and political ideas. At the BLASPHEMY! podcast, we uncover the very human origins or these beliefs, how they evolved, and the impact they have had, and continue to have, on society and culture.

    XMAS 5 - From the House of David

    It's the day before the day before Christmas. So, let Chris and Marnee take you to church. On this episode we get Blasphemous with the Bible as we start in the birth narrtaives of the New Testament, and then, from there, hop way back into the Old Testament to take a look at the story of David. Trust us, you've probably never heard the Bible like this. Is it possibly we are completely misunderstanding it, misusing it, and simply making it mean what we want it to mean according to our own individualized and organizational agendas? Yes. The answer to that is yes. Merry XMAS & Happy New Year!! Researched, Written, and Edited by: Chris Setty Performed by: Chris and Marnee Setty Theme Music: Slow Fade by Thör

    XMAS - Part 4 - Angels

    We are back! Just in time to bring you a gift for the season. Join Chris as he takes Marnee through humanity's long and deep history of Angels, why we created them, what purposes they served in our mythologies, and how they got to the image we all have today, maybe even sitting on top of our Christmas Tree. Have a Very Blasphemous XMAS! Researched, Written, and Edited by: Chris Setty Performed by: Chris and Marnee Setty Theme Music: Slow Fade by Thör

    Vaxxing - Part 2 - Anti-Vaxxers Gonna Anti-Vaxx

    Join Chris as he takes Marnee through the aftermath of Edward Jenner's world-changing contribution in Part 2. We discuss the very first global vaccination project and other developments that turn the tide in our fight against smallpox. We then turn our attention to the groups and people who, from day one, suddenly became "experts" in this brand new science, creating propaganda, preaching, and politically organizing against vaccinations. The ideas they presented won't be hard for you to imagine because they are the same ones you see propagating around the world and showing up on people's screens today.

    Vaxxing - Part 1 - The Cow: Our Actual Best Friend

    We get to live today, blissfully ignorant, unaware, and untouched by a mysterious, deadly killer that stalked humankind for thousands and thousands of years. It killed millions of our children, took our eyesight, left us scarred and disfigured, if we even managed to survive its horrific attacks. This tale is *THE* story of how we came to live the long, potential-filled lives we do. How we fought back against this invisible, truly terrifying, serial killer - and how we should all thank our lucky f*****g stars we won.

  6. The Sinister Left

    The Sinister Left

    In this episode, Chris takes Marnee through a deeply ingrained belief around something considered innocuous today - the idea of the right hand versus the left. For millennia, our association of the left side, hand or way with evil and immorality. This belief crept into our religions, spiritual outlooks, languages, and even societal policy, impacting the lives of many left-handed people well into the latter parts of the 20th century. All based off of superstition around something as basic as what hand you favor. Researched, written, and edited by: Chris Setty Performed by: Chris and Marnee Setty Theme Music: Slow Fade by Thörr

  7. Human Rationality - Part 2 - You Don't Think How You Think You Think

    ١٠‏/٠٢‏/٢٠٢١

    Human Rationality - Part 2 - You Don't Think How You Think You Think

    Join us as Chris takes Marnee through some specific examples of how our brains are not wired for reason, logic, rationality, or a search for truth. Through scientific experimentation and research, we have learned a lot about how we actually operate. Realities we need to understand about ourselves so that we can confront our evolutionary programming and actually let our thinking capabilities be engaged. It's a fun conversation full of all kinds of experiences you will be very familiar with. Spoiler alert: You're totally biased.

  8. Human Rationality - Part 1 - Your Brain is Only Human

    ٠٤‏/٠٢‏/٢٠٢١

    Human Rationality - Part 1 - Your Brain is Only Human

    The human brain. It's about finding out truth and an objective picture of reality...there is something special about us compared to the rest of nature, something that makes us smarter, more logical, and more objective, right? Pretty much a ubiquitous belief amongst people. Join us, as Chris takes Marnee through some of the interesting features we have discovered about our brains. Realities that indicate we aren't the rational creatures we think we are. Researched, Written, and Edited by: Chris Setty Performed by: Chris and Marnee Setty Theme Music: Slow Fade by Thörr
