    Looking Into an AI Mirror

    What is AI? How does it fit in a Christian worldview? Do we have to be worried about it? In what ways? Does it impact how we ought to live in light of Christ? What does it mean to be human?

    Is Intellectual Property Really Real?

    In an addendum series to our most recent rant through the ages, Jaymes and Ravi tackle a sacred cow of our modern times: intellectual property. Is it actually a thing? Should it be? Where did it come from? What does the Bible say? The answers may surprise you!

    The Digital Apocalypse

    In the grand finale of Orthopraxis podcast's epic epochal extravaganza, Jaymes, our ever-present co-host, finds himself dethroned and demoted to 'guest expert' as Ravi flips the script. Buckle up as we blitz through the 70s and 80s, accusing them of ruining... well, pretty much everything! From MTV-inspired movie pacing to the dawn of emotionally charged postmodernism, it's a whirlwind tour of change. We brave the digital age, exploring screen-induced posture problems, the obliteration of boundaries thanks to incessant notifications, and the troubling rise of societal ADHD, all while fighting off disinhibition and comparison fatigue in an Instagram-filtered world. From paperback novels to TikTok, it's a rollercoaster ride through time you don’t want to miss!

    When Humans Become Cogs

    Welcome to the rise of the industrial revolution, when everything from humanity to theology to community became mechanized! All hail the Machine-god! Erm, perhaps that's not a good thing... Ravi and Jaymes take this month's episode to explore the penultimate epoch of this series: the industrial revolutions. So much awesomeness and such excellent coolness has come from this explosion of innovation, that it's often hard to see the contrasting dark side. We aren't Luddites and we aren't here to turn the clock back, but we are here to encourage us all to take a second glance at what was left behind, the consequences to society, and how we can mitigate those problems.

    Myth-Busting with Constantine

    Continuing our series on historical epochs, we dive right into the entirely non-controversial time period surrounding the first Christian Emperor: St Constantine the Great. We touch on a lot of previous episodes in this one, but we mostly constrain ourselves to pagan-bashing.

    A New Epoch!

    We are undertaking a new series dedicated to history! We'll be exploring various major epochal shifts through time and how they are still impacting us today. In this first episode we lay out our motivations for doing this kind of exploration in the first place, as well as cover all the time leading up to Christ -- which is kinda  a lot. Wish us luck!
