To think things out. We have been treated like people who need to be fed understandable narratives, people who need to be told how to think and feel. I believe life is a lot better when we stop and take the time to think the things that matter out. Join me Michael Kissel as I share my thoughts.
In this short episode I look at the way CRT can impact people who hold on tightly to it's core principles.
In this short segment I look at the common defense of critical race theory, that it is just an analytical tool and therefore benign or too inconsequential to oppose with any force.
In this episode I talk with Christopher McLaughlin and Eric Mosher about the impact of recent public policy on children around the world and in America. They lend their insight as pastors, doctoral candidates in education and fathers to the conversation. This one is going to step on a few toes, but when we think things out we aren't afraid to do that.
In this episode I briefly discuss the American government and some of what is required of us individually to maintain our liberty and individual identity in our American system.
In this episode we had a conversation about whether or not Christians should engage in politics, and what purposes we should have in engaging. What filters should we use to regulate our engagement? I had a blast recording this and hope you'll enjoy listening.
In this episode I discuss how we can have cohesive individualism, what binds us together and how we maintain that without becoming cogs.
In this episode I discuss the merits of individualism and look at some of the methods that have been used, are being used to dissolve our sense of individualism into tribalism.
I discuss the Georgia mass shooting incident of this week and the media coverage to reveal rank hypocrisy and naked political opportunism. We also dip our toes in the water of the discussion of neo-marxism and tribalism.
The evangelical cool kids have been all over Donald Trump and evangelical support for him and political agendas Christians believe align more closely with their particular morality and worldview. In this episode I talk about Tim Keller, David French, Russel Moore and others and some of their assertions, and what is driving them to make these comments.
I share a few stories about getting carried away with the crowd, and talk about the dangers of groupthink and what we can do about it.
People do not believe everything they pretend to, they do not even believe everything they tell you to believe. In this episode I talk about dealing with social reality. See you over at Excogitate.net to discuss it sometime soon.
