In this episode, I’m joined by David Patrick Harry, a PhD Religious Studies Scholar and Orthodox Christian, as he shares about the work he offers the world today utilizing his academic research skills. David’s PhD is in new religious movements and he focuses on the differences between concepts of deification, transhumanism, and Orthodox Christianity. David’s mission is to give people eyes to see and ears to hear how many of the challenges we’re facing in the world today are spiritual in nature.  David’s belief system in the Orthodox Church. David’s focuses on masculinity, red pill, Christ pill, transhumanism, spirituality, history, and philosophy. Finding simplicity in a complicated world. Building bridges from the New Age to Christianity. Why Christianity is the only thing that makes sense. What black pill means and the beliefs behind it. What shifted David from New Age to Christianity. Making claims about the energies that we directly participate in to become like God.  Different epistemologies and how they come to know the world and what we claim as truth. The distinction between you and your neighbor, even though we are all one. David’s experience with psychedelics and ceremony. David’s take on Gnosticism.Where David sees the world going. The problem in the world of everyone looking for a worldly savior. What conservatism is. How community is the antidote to isolation. Why it’s hard for men to find their place in the world and where David would lead them. Initiations within the church that move a boy into a man. Traditional relationships in Christian marriage.
