You Have Permission

Loved the first episode about the Chosen. Have many people in my life wanting me to watch that and probably get me saved again. I am always intrigued about movies and documentaries about Jesus but growing up in a fundamental charismatic church I am very hesitant to spend my time watching them unless it is from a Jewish perspective or something from someone like a John Dominick Crossan. Long time listener and love the diversity of thought on your show. Even though I would not be considered a Christian in most circles I appreciate your openness of your journey and respect your thoughtfulness. Would also love to hear a Jewish Rabbis perspective also on the Chosen. Keep it going and take care. Matt

… I’m done. The episode on libertarianism was a dealbreaker for me. Buying into the 60 years of lies from megalomaniacal billionaires and corporations that large societies with large problems don’t need communal action — rather, that government is the *cause* of our problems — is not just insane, but sinister. A hypercapitalist one-value nation needs a strong counterweight, and ours is being summarily butchered. “Overreach.” Give me a break. Neutered, more like. WPIWRUJLO? (What private island would rich, untaxed Jesus live on?)

Meh

Really? 🙄 As a Christian not represented by anti-LGBTQ Christian fascists, I request that you re-title your most recent episode from “Why Are Christians So Bad With Queer People” to “Why Are Some Christians…”
