    352 - Peter Boghossian - What Is Religion?
    Jul 26 2024
    In this conversation, American philosopher and author Peter Boghossian picks my brain about my beliefs, religion, its purpose and truth claims, the origin of the universe, and the meaning of gods or higher beings. We also discuss doubt, the efficacy of prayer, and the effects of meaning. Enjoy!

  • 351 - Did God Want Adam and Eve to Eat the Fruit?

    351 - Did God Want Adam and Eve to Eat the Fruit?
    Jul 17 2024
    After publishing a recent video commenting on Alex O'Connor's conversation with Jordan Peterson regarding Genesis, I decided to make June 2024's patron-only video public. In this video, I delve deeper into another question that came up in the discussion about whether God actually wanted Adam and Eve to eat the Fruit of the Knowledge of Good and Bad in the Garden of Eden. To answer this question, I draw from St. Ephrem the Syrian’s wonderful book, Hymns on Paradise.
