God not Among the Gods with James Alison
James Alison, a Catholic theologian and priest known for his unique insights into mimetic theory, leads a thought-provoking exploration of faith. He invites contemplation on whether we are inherently solitary or relational beings. Alison challenges listeners to rethink idolatry, drawing parallels between ancient practices and modern societal constructs. He emphasizes the distinct nature of the divine compared to traditional gods and discusses the transformative power of mistakes within a framework of mercy. This deep dive reimagines our connection to spirituality.
