Jim Babka, President of DownsizeDC.org, joins David Gornoski to talk about the increasing polarization and politicization in our culture. There is far too much shaming going on, Jim Babka says, but what we need today is empathy. "We have turned away from God and replaced Him with idols; and the number one idol is the state." The conversation moves towards the anthropological implications of Jesus' story in our culture today. What makes people default to statism whenever a crisis appears? David argues that we must get to the root of Jesus' revealed anthropology if we are to come across a better understanding of our society and what we can do to love our neighbors.

In this episode, Danielle invites Perry Willis to join the conversation. Today, they talk about extraterrestrial life, UFOs, and why the government is working so hard to keep everything hidden from the citizenry. Skeptics will appreciate the discussion on the Backfire Effect, and why understanding the cause of this effect can help us learn to think more critically about topics we are so eager to dismiss. Perry also shares ways in which we can learn to go from a reactive state of mind to a more reflective, present state of mind. Adrenaline blocks our pathway to critical thought and we need ways to transform our evolutionary egotistical ways of protecting our pride. The aim is to take you from skeptic to believer. Perry Willis has worked as a professional libertarian for nearly 40 years. He was twice the National Director of the Libertarian National Committee. He worked on 5 Libertarian Party presidential campaigns, and managed 2 of them, including the Harry Browne campaign in 2000. He is the co-founder of Downsize DC and the Zero Aggression Project. He co-created the Read the Bills Act and the One Subject at a Time Act, both of which have been introduced in Congress. He publishes a blog, https://What-the-future-needs.com , and he is currently writing a book: How to Think About UFOs: My Journey from Skeptic to Believer.
