Episode notes
Christianity Contains Its Own Antagonist
- The Christian story sets up both a proposition and its anti-proposition, creating space for a final resolution.
- Christ's mockery and death reveal a hidden kingship that transforms death into glory.
Technology Without Wisdom Fails
- Relying on technical knowledge without wisdom leads to systemic breakdown.
- Transhumanist or totalizing systems repeat the Tower of Babel and end in collapse.
Personal Transformation Over Grand Plans
- In crisis you cannot rely on grand political fixes; personal transformation is the practical stance.
- Becoming a saint-like figure (self-transformation) binds communities and holds an arc through collapse.
