    Atheist Uneducated Hit Piece Against Theism: Review of Yahweh God Takes No Pity Documentary Part 1 & 2

    Atheist Uneducated Hit Piece Against Theism: Review of Yahweh God Takes No Pity Documentary Part 1 & 2

    In this week’s show my cohost and I tackle the recent attack on the Israelite vision of God depicted in the Hebrew Scriptures. This is discussed in the documentary mentioned above created by MythVision's host Derek Lambert. We appreciate his bold attempt at biblical criticism that falls into the debunking traps of counter-apologetics by being as narrow, one-sided and sometimes misguided as religious dogma. We ask the question: is he fighting against religious literalist perspective or the moral quandaries all people of good will do when they engage with the biblical text?

    Augustine's Jewish (Heretics, Atheists, LGBTQ, etc) Problem in Modern Culture

    Augustine's Jewish (Heretics, Atheists, LGBTQ, etc) Problem in Modern Culture

    In this week’s show we discuss the stigmatization and demonization of “the other” in western Christianity throughout the ages.

    We explore St. Agustine’s influence on the many heretic hunters of Christianity who use Jews as the boogie man and how that is now applied to other groups. St. Augustine’s rhetoric of carnal vs spiritual, Jew vs Christian is so engrained in Christian thought that is hard to deny. The following article addresses St. Agustine’s complicated view of Jews which in his conclusion became a devastating stigmatization of Jews as the eternally cursed tribe that roams the world aimlessly due to their rebellion. His influence gave the many heretic hunters of historic Christianity the precedent  to use Jews as the eternal boogie man: https://adfontesjournal.com/commonwealth/augustine-and-antisemitism/

Compelling Conversation

You have to keep listening. This is what intelligent conversation about fringe, religious, spiritual and societal topics is supposed to sound like. It’s always exciting to see what each new episode topic will be and if you’re looking to have your perspective expanded, shattered, and rebuilt in a way that only makes you smarter....you gotta tune it!
