Von Pater George Elsbett LC „Die Existenz geht dem Wesen der Dinge voraus“ (Sartre). Das ist das Weltbild von immer mehr Menschen. Übersetzt bedeutet dies: Ich erfinde mich selbst. Ich bestimme. Ich gehe nicht von dem aus, was ich in Wirklichkeit bin, sondern ich schaffe und entwerfe mich selber. Ich kann aus mir machen was ich will. Es geht um den absoluten Vorrang der Freiheit. Freiheit bedeutet hier aber radikale Willkürlichkeit. Einziger Konkurrent dieser Freiheit ist Gott selbst. Diese Weltanschauung folgert: Wenn es Gott gibt, dann bin ich nicht frei. Aber ich bin frei, also gibt es Gott nicht. Warum wir uns nicht selbst erfinden müssen, können wir jedoch in der Bibel schon nachlesen. Warum wir uns nicht selbst erfinden müssen Die Heilige Schrift bietet eine radikal andere Weltanschauung. Gott hat uns von Anbeginn der Welt erwählt und hat einen Plan für jeden einzelnen. Gott schuf uns Menschen nicht, damit wir uns selbst verwirklichen, sondern zum Lob Gottes. Jeder Mensch ist von Gott vor Erschaffung der Welt erwählt worden und muss sich im Leben nicht selbst schaffen durch Leistung, Anerkennung oder anderen Dingen. “You can’t change the facts, your only option is to change your attitude.”

Drawing on her vast wealth of survival experiences around the world Megan Hine talks to Julia Wheeler at the Stanfords Travel Writers Festival about her book Mind of a Survivor. Mind of a Survivor by Megan Hine
Megan has spent time working and living with native communities all around the world, from the San bushmen in Africa to the Sami reindeer herders in the Arctic to the Iban jungle dwellers in Borneo and many more. Most of her expeditions involve working closely with native peoples and she always aims to support local communities where possible. Megan’s primal drive to travel and explore means she can often be found breaking trail through waist deep snow, swinging in her hammock in the depths of a jungle or sharing stories sat around a campfire under the desert stars. Megan’s Knowledge and skills make her a world leading expert in all aspects of remote wilderness area expeditions, survival and TV filming. “In the wilderness the only person you are in competition with is yourself. You should constantly strive to be better, to push your own limits and explore your own relationship with the environment.” Show notes Working in the UK - for once!

Today week we take on a doomsday future! We haven’t done one of those this season. So, what would happen if all the active volcanoes in the world erupted at the same time? The short answer is: bad things. The long answer is, well, you’ll have to listen to the episode! First we talk to Jessica Ball, a volcanologist, who walks us through the different types of eruptions, what make something an active volcano, and just how bad ash is. Spoiler: it’s really bad. It gums up engines, cuts up your lungs, and is so heavy that it can collapse buildings. But the destruction of a massive volcanic eruption doesn’t stop there. Oh no. Then Ball tells us about the ways in which volcanoes can actually impact the climate. In fact, in 1815, a single volcanic eruption at Mount Tambora caused the entire Northern Hemisphere to experience “A Year Without a Summer,” resulting in famine, death, and Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein. (You’ll have to listen to the podcast to get that particular story.) So how does one live through this kind of apocalyptic event? To find out, I called up two people who, unlike me, would probably survive: Megan Hine and Pat Henry. Megan and Pat are both sort survival experts, but they go about it in really different ways. Megan is an adventurer and wilderness expedition leader. She takes people out into the middle of nowhere, and trains them no how to survive. People like Bear Grills, the man of the Discovery Channel show Man vs. Wild. Bear has called Megan “the most incredible bushcraft, climbing and mountain guide you’ll ever meet.” Pat is a little bit different. Pat is a prepper, someone who is actively preparing today for a disaster that might come tomorrow. Pat is the founder and editor of a website called The Prepper Journal, which has pretty much everything you need to know about prepping, should you be worried about, say, all the volcanoes in the world going off at once. Oh and Pat isn’t his real name. He uses a pseudonym, so that nobody knows that he has two years worth of food stored up. So when something terrible does happen, he doesn’t have to turn his unprepared friends and neighbors away. Both Megan and Pat said that the first way to survive is by being lucky. Don’t live or be near a volcano. But after that, surviving 1,500 volcanic eruptions is like surviving any other terrible thing. You’ll need food, water, shelter, medicine. You’ll have to fight off other humans. And you’ll probably be surprised by what you can do, when push comes to shove. And we end the episode with a note about who you want in your little gang of survivalists. You’ll be surprised who’s actually a good addition to that team. Stay tuned to the end for that. Also! Right now I'm running a little survey for listeners. Tell me a bit about yourself, please. Thanks! Flash Forward is produced by me, Rose Eveleth, and is part of the Boing Boing podcast family.
