The hosts delve into the changing beliefs and certainties of society, highlighting the emergence of compassion and progress as certainties while nature and biology become uncertain. They also touch upon the significance of recognizing inconsistencies in one's beliefs and provide a glimpse into future episodes focusing on tactics to address these issues.
The Beatles might have claimed to be bigger than Jesus, but when they said “Love is all you need,” they were just riffing on Jesus’ words. In this episode, Glen Scrivener and Andrew Wilson discuss how today’s slogans—Black Lives Matter, Women’s Rights are Human Rights, No Human is Illegal, Science is Real, Love Is Love, Kindness Is Everything—flow from a worldview thoroughly shaped by Christianity.
They compare and contrast ancient, Christian, and secular virtues to explore the inherent inconsistencies of today’s culture, question how relativistic our society really is, and describe how we’ve arrived at a new pharisaism where those who don’t get on board with the modern program are the new heretics of our secular age.
