Keine Zeit für eine Pause – mit dem Argument schaufeln viele Menschen jeden Tag im Büro ihr Essen während der Arbeit am Schreibtisch rein. Dabei wären wir insgesamt produktiver und nach Feierabend weniger geschlaucht, wenn wir uns die halbe Stunde zu Mittag Zeit nähmen, um ein bisschen Abstand zur Arbeit zu gewinnen und uns zu erholen. In der neuen Folge von "Besser leben" gehen wir der Frage nach, wie die ideale Mittagspause aussieht: Lunch mit den Kolleginnen oder Freunden, ein Spaziergang in der Natur, Yoga, Laufen – oder Schlafen? Was wirklich sinnvoll ist – und wie man es schafft, sich die Zeit dafür zu nehmen. **Hat Ihnen dieser Podcast gefallen?** Mit einem STANDARD-Abonnement können Sie unsere Arbeit unterstützen und mithelfen, Journalismus mit Haltung auch in Zukunft sicherzustellen.

In this episode, Suan Sonna responds to a popular Protestant argument for sola scriptura: Jesus condemns traditions in Matthew 15 and Mark 7. Does this refute Catholicsm? No.
Highlights: ● “This notion that Musk's claim that Trump's arrest will result in a landslide victory is similar to the predictions made about how the Mar-a-Lago raid would lead to a red tsunami in the midterms, that's a highly dubious comparison. And that's because there's a categorical difference between voting for a person and voting for a party.” ● “What black-pillers don't seem to realize is that few beyond the most rabid partisans will believe that this is a legitimate case against Trump. No one is going to buy this. They're going to see this as a blatant example of weaponized legalism.” ● “It's not a coincidence that Trump saw his highest approval rating the very same months he was impeached! The Mar-a-Lago raid gave Trump a 10-point boost over DeSantis.” ● “This Soros-backed DA, this radical Democrat Alvin Bragg, is so desperate to bring charges against Trump, and there's so little there, that he's been reduced to charging Trump with nothing more, in the end, than an alleged sex scandal. That's it! Now, remind me here, the last I looked, sex scandals don't necessarily hurt a president, just ask Bill Clinton.” Timestamps: [01:09] Argument #1 on why Trump's arrest will not help him win [04:40] Argument #2 on why Trump's arrest will not help him win [07:25] The reason why Trump's arrest will help him win in a landslide Resources: ● Email me at steve@turleytalks.com or comment below on what you'd like to see in my new guidebook about Escaping the Great Reset! ● Learn how to protect your life savings from inflation and an irresponsible government, with Gold and Silver.

Have you ever wondered why the Gospel writers included the details they did? Our guest this week on the Profile, Dr. Timothy McGrew, suggests that if we pay careful attention to the lesser details included by the authors of the Gospel accounts, we will see with greater clarity how the accounts interlock and compliment one another. These details offer but one further bit of evidence that the Gospel narratives are historically accurate and trustworthy.ADDITIONAL RESOURCES: Watchman Fellowship's 4-page Profile on Atheism by Robert M.

This is the second episode in a three-part series about how to have difficult conversations with people who see the world differently, how to have better debates about contentious issues, and how to ethically and scientifically persuade one another about things that matter – in short, this is a three-part series about How Minds Change (which is also the title of my new book).There seems to be a movement afoot, a new wave of nonfiction about how to reduce all this argumentative madness and epistemic chaos. I want to boost everyone's signal on this issue, so I thought it would be nice to collaborate instead of compete, since that's part of what we are all proselytizing with these books.So this episode's guest is Bo Seo, the author of Good Arguments – a book about how he became a world debate champion in which he not only teaches us how to apply what he has learned to everyday life but imagines communities built around, not despite, constant arguing and disagreement.Seo says that a political life without constant disagreement would be impoverished. As he puts it, quote, "Nations are, at their best, evolving arguments. As he writes, “In a liberal democracy, good arguments are not what societies should do but also what they should be.” See believes that on well curated, well moderated platforms, ones that value good faith interactions, arguing and disagreement would flip from being catalysts for polarization to the very engine of depolarization and change. In the interview, he not only tells us how to defend ourselves against bad arguments, but explains how in his mind a great democracy isn't a place where everyone agrees and sees eye-to-eye, but one where we work to have better quality disagreements.- Bo Seo's Website: www.helloboseo.com- How Minds Change: www.davidmcraney.com/howmindschangehome- David McRaney's Twitter: https://twitter.com/davidmcraney- YANSS Twitter: https://twitter.com/notsmartblog- Show Notes: www.youarenotsosmart.com- Newsletter: https://davidmcraney.substack.com

In the Arena: The Debates and Lectures of William Lane Craig
Dr. Craig discusses the Kalam Cosmological Argument with a Catholic apologist who finds it problematic.
As a follow-up to his Reformed Academy course, Exploring 2 Peter: The Promise and the Path, Dan Ragusa joins Camden Bucey and Ryan Noha to discuss preterist views of 2 Peter 3 concerning the promise of new heavens and a new earth. After establishing the future orientation of the epistle, Dan provides a sketch of the history of preterist interpretations beginning with John Owen's “Oriental” reading, noting the influence of Joseph Mede in the context of seventeenth-century Puritanism. He then turns his attention to modern-day exegesis of this chapter from leading partial preterists, exemplified by Peter Leithart's commentary, The Promise of His Appearing: An Exposition of 2 Peter. Dan responds to Leithart's “knock down arguments” by applying the eschatological pressure of the letter as a whole, all while directing listeners to the consummate, cosmic hope of the eternal kingdom that cannot be reduced to passing of the old covenant order in 70AD.

Last week, we read the introduction from the book Beautiful Union by Joshua Butler. You know, the book that the Gospel Coalition posted an excerpt from two weeks ago, causing the Internet to lash out against TGC and Butler. And this week, we're reading the first half of the first chapter, and have our own variety of responses and reactions. We are not theologians; check out Jackson Wu's recent article on Patheos The Fundamental Flaws in Josh Butler's Argument for a dissection of the problematic perspective of Butler's (and many Evangelical leader's) theology. We are sex therapists. And we're reading chapter one from the lens of how Butler's theology informs the rigid expectations around sexuality that continue to fuel Evangelical and Pentecostal sermons and teachings. Naming these rigid expectations and understanding how Evangelical theologians come to these conclusions help us deconstruct unhelpful expectations for humanity and recreate new possibilities for people to explore themselves and celebrate life through relationships. Framing male ejaculation as “generosity”, and framing female sexuality as “hospitality” (14:55): Julia summarizes, “We've learned that giving and receiving are at the heart of sex, but really the penis and male pleasure is at the heart of sex.” And Jeremiah responds, “And once again, Julia, your job as a woman is to be hospitable—code, be passive—and also put on a smiling, happy face about.” This is before we acknowledge that a) not all sex requires genital stimulation; b) ejaculation and orgasm are not the same thing; c) this is setting up an anti-same-sex relationship position. The problems of the parallel process between Jesus and the church and a male-female sexual relationship (29:30): Julia shares, “ This reads to me, and to apparently millions of people on the internet, like a real fetish around the female body and setting it up to be the depository of semen or salvation or the love of Jesus.” Jeremiah adds, “Which again gets back to the active/passive element, that the hospitable host or hostess is strictly to receive.” Misandry… (41:50): Jeremiah summarizes Butler's writing, “So in order to suggest that the way that I show my partner and practice with my partner to practice with you how Christ engages with the church is I come in and I immediately move towards you attempt to stimulate you, whether you want it or not, as a way of getting you to respond and move into a space of hospitality?” …partnered with misogyny…(43:00): To which Julia responds, “What that communicates to me is that I'm a sexual object. That is completely subjugating to me. We don't need you to do anything. I come in the room, I come in the house, I see you, and I want you.” creates a horrible double bind for men and women (45:00): Julia states, “That communicates that you walk around in the world unable to see a woman without mentally undressing and or mentally raping her. And my humanity doesn't exist outside of my sexuality. And your humanity exists as someone who is a sexual Initiator. So when you get home to your lovely submissive wife who's prepared herself, can just channel all of that pent up energy that you couldn't enact on every other woman that you saw today onto her.” Spontaneous and responsive desire (47:00): Butler reflects on Emily Nagoski's work on spontaneous and responsive desire. Julia fires back, “He is also doing the classic move that even the field of psychology has done, which is to take the conclusion of a study and then make broader implications around gender. Women more often than perhaps men in certain studies being aroused in responsive versus spontaneous contexts does not necessarily mean anything specific about gender, most likely. That actually is about the socialization, of men and women, rather than about men and women being different.” Jeremiah summarizes, “This is not paradigm shifting. This is parroting the evangelical language from the eighties, nineties, two thousands, Focus on the Family nonsense and using slightly different language, slightly different metaphors.” It's imperative that we continue to discuss negative, confining, oppressive texts about sexuality, gender, and relationships, both from legislative outlets and Christian publishing houses. We'll conclude chapter 1 on Beautiful Union next week! Let's heal together!
CS Lewis said "If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy, the only logical explanation is that I was made for another world." Peter Kreeft is a philosophy professor and well known Christian thinker and writer. He defends the "argument from desire". Does our experience of transcendent longing indicate that there is a God to satisfy it? Atheist philosopher Richard Norman says that the argument amounts to wish-fulfillment. They both sat down to discuss this issue, first broadcast in 2013. • Subscribe to the Unbelievable? podcast: https://pod.link/267142101 • More shows, free eBook & newsletter: https://premierunbelievable.com • For live events: http://www.unbelievable.live • For online learning: https://www.premierunbelievable.com/training • Support us in the USA: http://www.premierinsight.org/unbelievableshow • Support us in the rest of the world: https://www.premierunbelievable.com/donate
If we are to love those who are not Christians, as Jesus commands, one of the essential components of loving our neighbors is being able to listen to them with intent, compassion, and sincerity. Discussions and debates about God can quickly become heated. We often don't really listen to another person's position carefully, but only wait for opportunities to make our point or speak over them.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: An AI risk argument that resonates with NYTimes readers, published by Julian Bradshaw on March 12, 2023 on LessWrong. Ezra Klein of NYT put out a surprisingly sympathetic post on AI risk in the Sunday edition. It even quotes Paul Christiano and links back to LessWrong!But what I'm actually here to talk about is the top reader-recommended comment on the article as of Sunday 11pm UTC: Dwarf Planet I wonder how many of these AI researchers have children. What Ezra describes here is what I see every day with my teenager. Of course, no one understands teenagers, but that's not what I mean. I taught my daughter to play chess when she was very young. I consider myself a reasonably good player, and for many years (as I was teaching her), I had to hold myself back to let her win enough to gain confidence. But now that she is thirteen, I suddenly discovered that within a span of weeks, I no longer needed to handicap myself. The playing field was level. And then, gradually and then very suddenly, she leapt past my abilities. As with AI, could understand the broad outlines of what she was doing--moving this knight or that rook to gain an advantage--but I had no clue how to defend against these attacks. And worse (for my game, at least), I would fall into traps where I thought I was pursuing a winning hand but was lead into ambush after ambush. It was very humbling: I had had the upper hand for so long that it became second nature, and then suddenly, I went to losing every game. As parents, we all want our children to surpass us. But with AI, these "summoners" are creating entities whose motives are not human. We seem to be at the cusp of where I was before my daughter overtook me: confident and complacent, not knowing what lay ahead. But, what we don't realize is that very soon we'll begin to lose every game against these AIs. Then, our turn in the sun will be over. Generally NYT comments on AI risk are either dismissive, or just laden with general anxiety about tech. (Indeed, the second-most recommended comment is deeply dismissive, and the third is generic anxiety/frustration.) There's hopefully something to learn from commentor "Dwarf Planet" in terms of messaging. Thanks for listening. To help us out with The Nonlinear Library or to learn more, please visit nonlinear.org.
Sometimes it can feel like no one appreciates all we do as working moms. I get it - sometimes it feels like a simple “thank you” would go a long way. A few years ago, I started to notice that I was judging myself for feeling this way. But the truth is that we all have needs, including a need to be seen and valued. In today's episode, I coach you through what to do when you feel unseen and unappreciated. I offer an invitation to reframe your mindset and take ownership of expressing your needs. I even coach you through the script I used in conversation with my husband to share with him how I was feeling unappreciated (without it starting an argument). Was it a little awkward? Maybe. But it was so worth it!

Neville Goddard's Inner Argument Ender
Embodied Faith: on Relational Neuroscience, Spiritual Formation, and Faith
Like Jesus, we need to overturn the tables of those peddling gender hierarchies within the temple of our bodies. Because our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, we need to overturn this harmful equation of sex and salvation with a gender hierarchy. In this episode, with Dr. Beth Felker Jones, we talk about the recent outrage over the article "Sex Won't Save You (But It Points to the One Who Will)", its distorting and damaging theology, and point toward a better understanding of the goodness of sex, marriage, and the gospel. See also Dr. Jones' book, Faithful: A Theology of Sex, and her blog.Other resources: "Protestant bodies, Protestant bedrooms, & our furious need for a theology thereof" (more from Dr. Jones)."The Theology of the Body" (Catholic view by Christopher West)"The Fundamental Flaws in Josh Butler's Argument" (Jackson Wu)Affiliate links included.Support the showStay Connected: Need coaching or spiritual direction that aligns with this podcast?

At this point you know that arguments are going to happen. It's not the right goal to try and not have them. It's all about the repair. Now a big problem that you have likely experienced yourself is that when you try and come back to the conversation, it just escalates and you relive the whole argument. Now you are probably even more angry and frustrated with each other. So in this episode we take you through an argument we just had 3 days ago while we were at the airport coming back from a trip. This one we did not keep from escalating and disconnecting us for over 24 hours. But then we did debrief our argument to find the root cause and resolve it together. You will authentically hear from us the mistakes even we made, but how you can debrief after an argument so that you too can shorten your argument hangovers and be able to learn the value lessons from an argument and change the patterns for the future! MAKE SURE YOU GET THE NEW REPAIR GUIDE: A step-by-step guide to repairing after an argument; to ensure it's resolved for good and get back to being truly connected as a couple.
