Snapping, Information Disease and Holy Terror (with Conway & Siegelman)

Jun 28, 2019

This episode features a hugely informative and insightful information with two of my personal heroes, Flo Conway and Jim Siegelman out of New York City.

Authors of the massively influential books Snapping and Holy Terror, Conway & Siegelman have for decades been recognized as two of the foremost experts and investigators on the world of both the cults and Christian fundamentalism. 

Specifically, we discuss the phenomenon of “snapping” and “information disease” and find out how Christian fundamentalism’s current bid for political power started back in the late 1970s and continues on today using, and abusing, information and communication techniques–just like the cults!
