It has changed individual lives and shaped entire cultures. It's an ancient text that claims to have been written by God himself, and the proof of its reliability is surprisingly strong. Here are three reasons we can trust what it teaches:Historical Evidence Ancient manuscripts and archeological digs have stacked up in favor of biblical reliability. The Bible was written thousands of years ago, long before printing presses and modern technology. Manuscript fragments of the biblical text have endured wars and weather throughout the ages, and the scraps that remain represent just a fraction of the originals. Are those remnants enough to provide a reliable testimony for modern-day readers? And how can we be sure that the message hasn't been corrupted over the millennia? The good news is that the God who inspired the scriptures was also powerful enough to preserve those writings through the ages. Consider the manuscript evidence. Manuscript copies in the ancient world were painstakingly hand-written, and not all of them survived the ravages of time. Reliability of ancient writings is determined by the number of copies (or partial copies) of the work in existence. So how does the Bible stack up? See for yourself:Today we have only 49 copies of Aristotle's writings.Homer's “The Iliad” does a little better, with 643 copies in existence.The New Testament wins by a landslide, with almost 5700 Greek copies and over 19,000 copies in other languages!The New Testament clearly has more manuscript evidence than any other ancient work. But how do we know that those manuscript copies are faithful to the originals? What if human authors changed the message, intentionally or otherwise? Modern archeology helps us answer this question, thanks to the Dead Sea Scrolls. In 1947 a shepherd boy discovered some ancient scrolls hidden away in remote caves in the Middle East. This led to even more discoveries in the area, and in the end almost 1000 manuscripts were recovered. Parts of almost every book of the Old Testament were found, and some of those fragments proved to be almost 1000 years older than the oldest manuscripts known at the time. This offers a perfect test for the reliability of our modern translations. The book of Isaiah provides the most compelling example, since the Dead Sea Scrolls contained a complete copy of the prophet's writings. When compared to the Masoretic Text (the oldest copy previously known, dating back to about 800 AD), the Isaiah manuscript from the Dead Sea Scrolls was 95% identical! And the only differences were minor, often just variations in spelling.So the historical evidence stacks up in favor of the reliability of the Bible. But there's more:Textual Evidence The Bible is the most impressive writing project in the history of the world. It contains 66 books written by 40 different authors over the course of 1500 years, and yet it tells one unified story. Think about it: Moses, a Jewish slave raised in the house of a Pharaoh, wrote the first five books. John, a fisherman-turned-revolutionary, wrote the last four books. In between were books and letters written by shepherds, kings, prophets, tax collectors, doctors, and more. And the most prolific author in the New Testament was Paul – a religious Pharisee who zealously persecuted the Jesus followers before joining them. Most of these authors never met each other, and many of them were unaware of the other books and letters that would eventually be included in the Bible. Their writings spanned different cultures and languages over the course of 15 centuries, and yet the Bible amazingly reads as one story. From beginning to end it's about Jesus, and the fulfilled prophecy is the glue that holds it together. Let's take just a few examples: Of the 12 tribes of Israel, Judah was surprisingly predicted to be the one through which Jesus would come – which is exactly what happened. Genesis 49:10, Matthew 1:1-3It was prophesied that Jesus would be born in Bethlehem, and that's how it happened – even though his mother didn't even live there. Micah 5:2, Luke 2:1,4Prophets wrote with shocking accuracy about the torture and death of Jesus hundreds of years before it happened – exactly as predicted. Psalm 22, Isaiah 53It was because of these kinds of prophecies that Jesus spoke these words to the religious leaders of his day:John 5:39 You search the Scriptures because you think they give you eternal life. But the Scriptures point to me!The Bible amazingly tells one story, centered on Jesus, because it was ultimately inspired by the God of human history.Personal Evidence The Bible is ultimately about Jesus, and the changed lives of his followers is the most compelling proof of its message. Let's just take three examples from the New Testament, starting with Peter. When Jesus was on trial before his crucifixion, a servant girl noticed Peter and accused him of being a follower of Jesus. Peter denied it three times, walking away with an incredible sense of guilt and shame (Luke 22:56-59). But that's not the end of his story, because days later the resurrected Jesus sat down to breakfast with Peter and reinstated him – three times (John 21:15-19). Peter went on to be a pillar of the Christian church, eventually giving up his life for Jesus. Or consider “doubting” Thomas. He missed out on meeting the resurrected Jesus with the other disciples and expressed his doubt that they really saw the risen Christ. But soon enough he met Jesus for himself and professed his faith in him (John 20:25-28). Thomas, too, ended up dying for his faith. And then there's Paul, a self-righteous Pharisee (Philippians 3:5) whose life mission was to persecute the followers of Jesus. Then he met Jesus and joined that very group of misfit disciples. Paul made it his life's mission to spread the Good News about Jesus and he, too, died a martyr's death. There's no way to explain away these changed lives except to conclude that the message about Jesus, along with every word in the Bible, truly is inspired by God.But no amount of evidence can overcome an unbelieving attitude. At the end of the day, trusting the reliability of the Bible comes down to your willingness to believe in the God behind the Bible. Jesus made this point one day as he taught in the Temple courts:John 7:16-17 My message is not my own; it comes from God who sent me. Anyone who wants to do the will of God will know whether my teaching is from God or is merely my own.If you're unwilling to submit to God's will, your pursuit is over before it has even started. But if you are willing to come to God on his terms and take him at his word, then Jesus promises that you'll discover the truth. The teachings of Jesus, and indeed all of the teachings in the Bible, are from God, not man. And so we can trust the Bible in our pursuit of God.

Was the identification of Nero Caesar with 666 built on a convenient modern theory—or does first-century archaeology confirm the calculation?In this episode, Jay Rogers examines the Murabba'at papyrus, an ancient Aramaic commercial document that preserves the spelling Neron Kaisar, the exact form of Nero's name that produces 666 when calculated through Hebrew gematria.Rather than relying on speculation, this evidence comes directly from the world in which Revelation was written.Jay explores the archaeological discoveries from the Judean Desert, the significance of the 666 and 616 manuscript traditions, and why the spelling of Nero's imperial title matters for understanding the Beast of Revelation. He also addresses common objections and demonstrates how historical evidence strengthens the case that John's original audience would have immediately recognized the reference.If Revelation was written in the first century, the number 666 may not point to a distant future ruler at all—but to a persecuting emperor already known throughout the Roman world.Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >HereHere

Keen On Democracy
How to Say No to Fascism: Curtis White's Anti-Manifesto of Resistance

Keen On Democracy

Play Episode Listen Later Aug 3, 2026 38:28


“Misbehave, make something beautiful, and try to win.” — Curtis White's motto for resistance How to say no to fascism? Curtis White, the literary thinker dubbed “the splendidly cranky utopian,” has published what he calls a “manifesto” of “resistance.” On Resistance, the 75-year-old White told me, is his last work of non-fiction. He still has worlds to invent, novels to write. Enough with the manifestos. But don't expect a program. On Resistance is more of an anti-manifesto. “That's not for me to say,” White responds when asked what, exactly, we're supposed to do to resist fascism. His resistance is cultural. It's an attitude. Borrowing from Ted Gioia's subversive history of music, White likes the idea of “psychic treason.” Its patron saints are the first dropouts, romantics like Wordsworth and Coleridge who rejected the military, clergy and family to write poetry in the countryside. But On Resistance isn't simply sixties nostalgia. White, a veteran of Berkeley and the Haight, prefers the Nietzschean imperative to forget the past and move on to the next joyful deed. So the only good manifesto is the anti-manifesto. If you want to say no to fascism, become a cranky utopian. Or at least pick up On Resistance. Five Takeaways •       Psychic Treason. White's resistance is not conventionally political — Trump appears once or twice, party politics not at all. Borrowing “psychic treason” from Ted Gioia's Music: A Subversive History, he argues that the arts are subversive by nature: sometimes formally, sometimes by allying with social movements. His founding example is the Romantics, the first dropouts — Wordsworth and Coleridge refusing the military, the clergy, and the family estate to write poetry in the countryside, declaring cultural war once the church was out of the way. The treason White wants is the one the arts commit constantly, whether or not anyone calls it politics.•       Not Nostalgia — Nietzsche. The sixties made White: Berkeley in high school, San Francisco after, and the formative discovery that his country “had lied to me” and was indifferent to whether he lived or died. But On Resistance opens with the confession “I am living in a world that no longer exists” — and refuses to make anyone else live there. One chapter is bluntly titled “Forget The Beatles.” His position is Nietzschean: move on to the next joyful deed. And the rot, he insists, didn't start with Trump but with Reagan — the decades-long withdrawal of public money from public goods, education above all.•       The Three False Resistances. The book's first half is ideology critique: our culture says resistance is unnecessary because it has already been provided — by philanthropy, virtuous corporations, and liberalism. White's exhibits: Steve Jobs Buddha-branding the counterculture to sell machines to people who thought they were subverting something; the “big green” foundations (via Mark Dowie) taking over grassroots fights and defanging them; the Gates Foundation vaccinating children against polio downwind of a polluter it was invested in. Philanthropy, he argues, self-limits to protect the source of its own wealth. Patagonia may be the quiet exception that proves the rule.•       Dropping Out, Together. White's alternative is dropping out — plural: doing something else, and doing it with other people. The organic farms and farmers markets that have created communal well-being in most American cities; FC2, the author-run press he co-founded with Ronald Sukenick, past its fiftieth anniversary; the thriving-but-invisible independent presses — Graywolf, Coffee House, Rochester's Open Letter — for which he's now plotting a group Substack. The obstacle is the money jail: everyone's struggle for money limits what it is possible to do. The goal isn't overturning the status quo. “What we need right now is companions.”•       Misbehave, Make Something Beautiful, Try to Win. White's motto since The Middle Mind — the making beautiful needn't be art; the trying to win is where misbehavior gets socialized. His lineage runs Thoreau, Whitman, William Carlos Williams, and above all John Berger: Marxist, art critic, poet, writer of lively living books. His Marxism, such as it is, is the humanist 1844 Manuscripts — alienation, not expropriation — via Marcuse's One-Dimensional Man. And the book itself is the argument: playful and fierce, a performance that moves like a novel, reinvigorating worthy old ideas rather than hunting new ones. At 75, it's his last nonfiction — written in a spirit of play, to be left in one. About the Guest Curtis White is a novelist and social critic whose books include Memories of My Father Watching TV, The Middle Mind, The Science Delusion, and Living in a World That Can't Be Fixed. Called by Elle “the most inspiringly wicked social critic of the moment,” he is co-founder, with Ronald Sukenick, of FC2, the publisher of innovative fiction run collectively by its authors, and taught English for many years at Illinois State University. His new and, he says, final work of nonfiction is On Resistance: A Manifesto (Melville House, August 11, 2026). He lives in Port Townsend, Washington. References: •       On Resistance: A Manifesto by Curtis White (Melville House, August 11, 2026). Jeffrey St. Clair: “a trail guide through our disorienting and perilous political landscape.”•       Music: A Subversive History by Ted Gioia — the source of “psychic treason” and the argument that the arts subvert by nature.•       The Middle Mind by Curtis White — where the motto was coined: misbehave, make something beautiful, and try to win.•       Jon Taplin in Rolling Stone — the recent essay asking whether the counterculture can rise again, and a recent Keen On conversation in the same key.•       One-Dimensional Man by Herbert Marcuse — the Western Marxist tradition, via the 1844 Manuscripts, that taught White to worry about alienation rather than expropriation.•       FC2 — the author-run press of innovative fiction White co-founded with Ronald Sukenick, now past its fiftieth year. About Keen On America Nobody asks more awkward questions than the Anglo-American writer and filmmaker Andrew Keen. In Keen On America, Andrew brings his pointed Transatlantic wit to making sense of the United States — hosting daily interviews about the history and future of this now venerable Republic.

It is available on Audible, Spotify, LibriVox, Audiobooks.com, and library apps like Libby! You can hear “Chapter 1: Unexpectedness in Big and Little Ideas” in this podcast episode. Talented Swedish author Fredrik Backman reached out to me after reading my book. Once I get his permission, I will share some snippets from our email correspondence—spoiler alert: it's glowing! Mr. Backman is the brilliant mind behind beloved works like My Friends, A Man Called Ove, Beartown, Us Against You, The Winners, Anxious People, and others. Chapter One begins in this way. “We often think of self-growth as being something we initiate, but what if unexpected experiences are what actually shape us? From those unexpected experiences, we extract the lessons for self-growth that reshape our lives.” Our growth often comes wrapped in the cloak of inconvenience, appearing as grief, curiosity, or unexpected questions we never thought to ask. Let's embrace the beautiful messiness of becoming and allow this audiobook to inspire and nurture your big and little ideas along the way. So turn up the volume and enjoy my audiobook!

To grow our businesses, we must lead differently when our perspective shifts. The thousands of brave leaders I have mentored succeeded by taking charge of how they evolved and learned how to respond to the unpredictable nature of business ownership by innovating on purpose (asserting self-leadership).  When your perspective shifts, your intuition nudges you into a growth process so you can learn how to lead differently. As you practice new ways of leading, you notice ways to change your business. It is like remodeling.  We start with a plan when we embark on a remodeling project. When we implement the plan, obstacles challenge us to adjust our mindset, gather further information, and brainstorm other options. Adapting the plan to fit our new reality is part of every remodeling project. Budgets always need adjusting, and we need to update our approach to complete the innovation. What I love about renovating our businesses is that new ideas emerge, and the project usually has an even better result.

What if the number 666 was never meant to be a mystery about the distant future?In this episode, Jay Rogers examines one of the most debated questions in biblical prophecy: Why does the famous 666 calculation work in Hebrew rather than Greek?By exploring the Jewish context of Revelation, the practice of gematria, and the linguistic world of the first-century church, this study uncovers why many scholars connect the number of the beast directly to Nero Caesar.Was John's audience expected to recognize a coded reference hidden in plain sight?Why would a book written to churches in the Roman world use a Hebrew calculation?And what does this reveal about the original purpose of Revelation?Topics covered:• The biblical meaning of 666• Gematria and ancient number symbolism• Nero Caesar and the "Neron Kaiser" calculation• Why Hebrew matters in Revelation• The Jewish background of the early church• The 616 manuscript variant• Historical context and first-century prophecyWhether you're studying Revelation, the Beast, Nero Caesar, biblical prophecy, or the debate over preterism, this episode explores the historical and linguistic evidence behind one of Scripture's most famous mysteries.Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >HereHere

Every year, more than five million tourists visit Israel, many of them Christians retracing the footsteps of Jesus. With over two billion followers worldwide, Jesus Christ is regarded as one of the most influential figures in history. Yet one question continues to be asked: did Jesus really exist as a historical person?In this program, we'll investigate the historical evidence for His existence, asking whether the millions of pilgrims who journey to Bethlehem, Nazareth, Galilee, and Jerusalem's Via Dolorosa are following the path of a man who truly lived in this land 2,000 years ago.Beyond the pages of the New Testament, some of the earliest references to Jesus appear in the writings of Jewish and Roman historians. Their accounts have been preserved in ancient manuscripts discovered, studied, and authenticated by archaeologists and historians, providing an important independent witness to the events of the first century.By examining these remarkable historical sources, including who wrote them, when they were written, how their manuscripts survived, and what they reveal about Jesus, we ask whether these non-biblical records corroborate what the Bible tells us about His existence. Drawing on the documentary evidence left by ancient historians, we explore whether history itself confirms the man at the centre of the Christian faith.

This week Jess sits down with Pastor Gabe for a follow-up to Sunday's message — a no-holds-barred FAQ on how we actually got the Bible, why there are so many translations, and whether you can really trust what's in your hands.Discover:Why there are so many Bible translations — and why you shouldn't pick just oneWord-for-word vs. meaning-for-meaning (verbal vs. dynamic equivalence) explained simplyWhat "God-breathed" really means — did God dictate every word, or something more?The difference between the Holy Spirit being with you and in youHow the early church councils decided what counted as ScriptureHow the Bible's manuscript evidence compares to other ancient documentsThe different types of writing in the Bible (and why mixing them up trips people up)How to choose a trustworthy study Bible — and the red flag to watch forWhere to actually start reading if you're new or starting overReflection: Faith was never meant to be fragile. The questions you've been afraid to ask — about copies, councils, and contradictions — aren't threats to your faith; they're an invitation to go deeper. As Gabe puts it, there's no end to the depth you can go with Jesus, and you're meant to feel pulled along, not overwhelmed. Whether you're a lifelong reader or cracking it open for the first time, the goal isn't just believing the right things about the Bible — it's getting God's Word into your heart, where transformation actually happens.Key Takeaways:Use multiple translations as different lenses — together they give you a fuller pictureA proverb is generally true; it's not a personal guarantee — read each book for what it isThe reliability of Scripture isn't built on blind faith — it's backed by manuscript evidenceA good study Bible names its translation team; if you can't find the scholars, that's a red flagStart with John, then go back to Genesis — get on a reading plan, and don't do it aloneQuestion for you to think about: What price have you paid for what you believe — and would it hold up under pressure?Calls to Action: If this gave you something to chew on, like this video, drop your own Bible questions in the comments, and share it with someone who's wrestling with doubt.

Monday's episode last week was about green-lighting yourself, refusing to wait for institutions to validate your work. Today we go one layer deeper. Green-lighting yourself does not mean publishing whatever you've got. It means doing the editorial work seriously, on your own behalf, so what you publish is actually ready.Editorial direction is more specific than most writers think. Here are six questions a serious editor asks of a manuscript before saying yes to it. You can start asking these of your own work today.* What is this book actually about* Who is the reader* What shelf does this book sit on* What is the reader's journey* Where is the prose working and where is it slipping* What is the work remainingEach question comes with an exercise you can do on your own manuscript right now.This episode also covers when outside editorial direction is most useful (later than most writers think) and what Crossroads's Editorial Framing Brief actually provides for writers who have done their own work and still can't see what they're missing.If you're working on a manuscript and want a publisher who thinks this way about the editorial standard—voice, testimony, weight per paragraph—Crossroads is that press.We're in our founding season through summer 2026 with founding-rate engagements.Discovery call → 20 min, free, let's chat.Author Engagement and First Draft Cohort here!—Chad Get full access to The Descent at chadprevost.substack.com/subscribe

For over six hundred years, scholars, codebreakers, and cryptographers have tried to decipher the mysterious Voynich Manuscript — a real medieval book written in a language no one on Earth has been able to translate. According to one allegedly true account, the real danger may not come from trying to translate the manuscript… but from giving it enough attention for it to try and teach your mind how to read it. Then, the Dyatlov Pass Incident - which remains one of the most unsettling mysteries of the modern era: nine hikers dead under bizarre circumstances, strange lights in the sky, catastrophic injuries, and a tent cut open from within. Avalanche? Military experiment? Something paranormal?  Next up, a strange witch haunts the dream of young boy. If it stopped there, maybe it would simply be a childhood nightmare. However, the nightmare and the witch have returned. What does it mean? Lastly, all we can say about this one is, I need a hug.  Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camp 2026: Have you heard?!

Behind The Knife: The Surgery Podcast

For decades, a tight carotid stenosis felt like a ticking time bomb — a plaque waiting to throw an embolus and cause the next stroke. We were taught that severe narrowing meant surgery, and trials like ACAS and ACST-1 seemed to prove it. But medicine has changed. Statins, antiplatelets, tighter blood pressure control, even PCSK9 and GLP-1 therapies have quietly slashed stroke risk, and now newer data from CREST-2 suggest that for many asymptomatic patients, the knife — or the stent — may not add much at all. So if modern medical therapy works better than ever… who actually benefits from intervention anymore? Today, we unpack the evidence, the controversies, and how to counsel the patient who feels perfectly fine but has high-grade stenosis.Hosts: Carolyn Judge, Andrew Huang, Luciano Delbono, Frank Davis, Robert BeaulieuInstitution: University of Michigan, Department of Surgery, Section of Vascular SurgeryLearning objectives: Describe how modern intensive medical therapy has transformed the natural history of asymptomatic carotid stenosis and explain why contemporary patients experience substantially lower annual stroke risk than those in earlier eras. Interpret and compare the results of landmark trials—including ACAS, ACST-1, and CREST-2—to assess the relative benefits of medical therapy, endarterectomy, and stenting. Apply current evidence and guideline recommendations to patient care by selecting which asymptomatic patients are most likely to benefit from carotid revascularization versus optimized medical therapy alone.
