Episode notes

Absolutely delighted to be back again with Dr. Marc Gafni to try and tackle one of the most complex issues in philosophy and religion; the causal root of Evil.

The thesis Marc offers is that the atrocities we see in the world can all be described as a failed love story. Our own stories serving as a strand in the braid of this universal cosmic love story. This frame will help bring understanding to how much of what we are seeing in today’s culture, from AI to the war in the Middle East. The surprise reveal is how the box office hit Barbie, actually points to the reality of our failed love story in culture.
