What happens when we stop treating the Bible as a sacred object and start paying attention to how we actually use it? In this conversation, theologian David Dault reflects on interpretation, responsibility, and the ethics of reading scripture in a fractured world. In this episode with Evan Rosa, Dault reflects on interpretation, responsibility, and how readers shape the meaning and moral impact of the Bible. Together they discuss the materiality of scripture, translation and betrayal, moral seriousness, scriptural reasoning across traditions, catastrophic love, and the ethical responsibility readers bear for how sacred texts are used. Episode Highlights “To assume that we know what a text is telling us is a matter of hubris.” “The Bible doesn't tell you to do anything. You as a reader decide what to do.” “Violence is always an act of interpretation.” “We never get to a place where everything is clean and everyone benefits.” “We have to take responsibility for the violence we involve ourselves in.” About David Dault David Dault is a theologian, journalist, and media producer whose work explores religion, culture, ethics, and interpretation.

This is a true story. in 1989, Michael Houlihan came to my office. He had a vision of wine brand (the story of why he had a vision is crazy in itself). He wanted to create a wine named Barefoot Cellars. He had found the name from a deunct brand and had gone to the owner to ask to buy the name.  He also wanted to call it the "Chateau La Feet" of California wine. I was annoyed. After I left, I called my father to tell him this crazy idea, "it will never work" I said. Today, Barefoot is the largest brand in America. Moral of the story: Don't listen to me. Mike Houlihan might be the only guest who walked into a bankrupt winery hoping to collect $300,000, and walked out with the ingredients to launch America's largest wine brand. You'll discover how Mike Houlihan and Bonnie Harvey took their outsider wisdom—and perhaps a little moxie—and transformed bare feet, old tanks, and a rickety bottling machine into an empire rivaling Robert Mondavi and winning over Trader Joe's and Kroger buyers from coast to coast. This isn't another vineyard romance—this is gritty, real entrepreneurship. You'll learn the salty secrets of wine buyers ("make it better than Bob, cheaper than Bob, and put it in a pig!"), the art of selling to mom-and-pop shops when big chains slam the door, and the critical merchandising strategies that made their bottle shine from four feet away (just as the buyer demanded). If you ever wondered what it takes to turn hardship into hustle—or how you can build a business legacy on persistence and soft skills, not just spreadsheets—Mike Houlihan and Bonnie Harvey peel back the curtain, sharing lessons that apply far beyond the wine aisle. Expect stories about bottling gone wrong, the challenges of excise taxes, and the colorful cast of wine industry characters. You'll walk away knowing why sincerity, face-to-face connection, and caring for the people in "low places" are the true keys to scaling a business—and why their journey is now taught in universities across the globe. This episode distills decades of learning, from humble beginnings to bestselling audiobooks, written by a team that never turned down a learning curve or a handshake. If you wanted a taste of how innovation, resilience, and a little bit of luck can transform your life, this is your vintage. Listeners will learn: How understanding your real customer—rather than industry norms—can shape a brand and turn small insights into multi-million case success. The unfiltered truth about wine distribution, price setting, and the critical importance of merchandising and "being visible from four feet away." Why business growth depends as much on relationships, hustle, and soft skills as it does on capital—and how these human elements can still triumph in the digital age.

Dans cet épisode de Long Live, je reçois Marine Colombel, psychiatre hospitalière et autrice du livre “Neuroplantes : Stress, anxiété, dépression... Les 7 plantes qui aident votre cerveau” aux éditions Marabout. Ensemble, nous explorons une question : Les plantes peuvent-elles vraiment nous aider à aller bien ?Marine Colombel explique avec clarté :Pourquoi toutes les plantes ne se valent pas (extraits secs, dosages, labels, pharmacie…)Comment elles agissent réellement sur les neurotransmetteursPourquoi elles ne remplacent pas les antidépresseurs dans les dépressions sévèresEt comment les intégrer intelligemment, sans multiplier les compléments au hasardOn parle aussi d'hygiène de vie — sommeil, alimentation méditerranéenne, mouvement — comme fondation indispensable de la santé mentale. Marine Colombel introduit cette notion passionnante d'hygiène de pensée, cette capacité à observer nos petites phrases intérieures automatiques sans les prendre pour des vérités absolues. On évoque également la surstimulation permanente dans laquelle nous vivons, entre réseaux sociaux, notifications et flux d'informations continus, qui laissent peu d'espace au repos psychique. Et surtout, on redonne une place à quelque chose de presque subversif aujourd'hui : l'importance de s'ennuyer, de ralentir, de laisser le mental décanter pour retrouver de la clarté.On fait le point sur les plantes et je retiens que est utile…Le safran pour l'anxiété et les dépressions légèresLe rhodiola et l'ashwagandha pour réguler le stress et le cortisolLa valériane pour apaiser les ruminations du soirLe bacopa pour soutenir mémoire et concentrationLa cannelle de Ceylan pour limiter les envies de sucre liées au stressLe curcuma pour agir sur la micro-inflammation et l'axe intestin-cerveauUn épisode à la fois scientifique, concret et profondément apaisant — qui se termine par une courte méditation guidée pour expérimenter, en direct, ce que signifie “laisser décanter le vase”.Et vous, avez-vous déjà testé certaines plantes pour votre stress ou votre sommeil ? Est-ce que vous arrivez à vous ménager des moments sans téléphone ? Est-ce que l'ennui vous angoisse… ou vous fait du bien ? Racontez-moi en commentaire ce qui vous aide, ou ce que vous aimeriez creuser dans un prochain épisode.Bonne écoute !Merci à WOJO, notre partenaire qui nous soutient en nous accueillant dans ses magnifiques locaux parisiens de Saint-Lazare !

Schadenfreude is when you feel good watching someone else fail. In this episode, I break down why that feeling shows up so often, especially when a public figure falls from the top. People call it justice, but many times it is really about restoring their own psychological balance. When someone who seemed above everyone else crashes, it makes some observers feel equal again. The hierarchy feels corrected. I explain why we attach to people at the top, and why we also feel satisfied when they fall. It is two sides of the same psychological coin.

Another episode where the guest is not a sense-making prophet or a galaxy-brained guru, as we engage in academic dialogos with Oxford psychologist Andrew Przybylski. This is a preview of our Decoding Academia series on Patreon (now 30+ episodes deep), where we swap internet gurus and rhetoric for actual researchers and empirical debates.Andrew's work spans motivation, gaming, and digital technology. His most recent crime is that he studies the impact of technology and has not found evidence that it is destroying wellbeing and ushering in civilisational collapse. We discuss the ongoing moral panic around smartphones, social media, and teenagers' allegedly pulverised minds and why much of the debate rests on statistical techniques roughly equivalent to staring deeply at Excel spreadsheets and hammering SPSS until the desired narrative appears.We get into measurement problems around “screen time,” why trivially small correlations become front-page catastrophes, and how the discourse rewards confident storytelling far more than (boring) careful causal inference. Also covered: cross-cultural evidence, the policy implications of airport pop science bestsellers, and the potential civilisational threat posed by Warhammer 40k.If you enjoy episodes where we analyse methods rather than metaphysics, the full Decoding Academia series lives on Patreon.Relevant Research (Przybylski & collaborators)Andrew's Academic Profile and Personal WebsiteFassi, L., Ferguson, A.

Read OnlineJesus said to his disciples: “You have heard that it was said, You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy. But I say to you, love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you…” Matthew 5:43–44Why would we want to love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us? The fallen natural mind alone reasons that an enemy is someone we should oppose and distance ourselves from, and those who persecute us deserve our wrath and condemnation. Without grace, our minds are incapable of comprehending this command. As the passage continues, Jesus answers the question for us: “that you may be children of your heavenly Father…”A child inherits his or her DNA from the mother and father. Children often resemble their parents, adopt certain traits, and might imitate some of their habits. These similarities result from both biology and learned behavior. If we choose God the Father as our true Father in Heaven, becoming a member of Jesus' family, we must inherit God's spiritual “DNA,” adopt His traits, and imitate our Lord's moral habits. Otherwise, we are not children of our heavenly Father.Just as membership in an earthly family carries obligations—such as compassion, support, and faithfulness—so does membership in God's family, with even greater responsibilities. For example, if a child of an earthly family rebels, is hostile, rejects his parents and siblings, and leaves them, the child loses out on the numerous blessings of family life, especially when the parents and other siblings are faithful servants of God. Likewise, by refusing to follow God's divine commands, we miss out on the blessings He gives His children.Because being a member of God's family demands great love, Jesus addresses the ultimate requirement He expects of us: “be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect.” True, we might only attain perfection in Heaven once we experience the purifying fires of Purgatory. However, that doesn't change the family obligations our Father imposes upon us in this life. God expects perfection, including a radical love of everyone—those who love us and those deemed “enemies” or who persecute us.The love to which God calls us knows no bounds because our heavenly Father's love for us knows no bounds. True children take on His spiritual DNA and moral habits. Moral perfection leads to spiritual communion with God—Divine Union—a gift beyond anything a rebellious spiritual child could attain through effort alone. Reflect today on God's incredible invitation given to you to be a member of His family. As you hear that invitation and respond with acceptance, consider the requirements that result from that choice. Look at those in your life for whom you hold a grudge, have a complicated relationship, or have been hurt. Do not act according to natural reason alone. Allow your mind to be elevated by truth so that you understand what God expects of you, and allow your will to be strengthened by grace so that you can act toward others as your heavenly Father acts toward you. Most loving God, Your love never fails, never diminishes, never changes. It is perfect in every way. My love is often selfish, limited, and erratic. I accept Your invitation to be a member of Your heavenly family and pray that I will learn to see all people with Your wisdom and love them with Your heart. Forgive me for my lack of love, and transform me into Your child by grace. Jesus, I trust in You.Image: Église Saint-Martin de Castelnau-d'Estrétefonds, CC BY-SA 4.0, via Wikimedia CommonsSource: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life!

Misha Glenny and guests discuss the countless venues across the Roman Empire which for over five hundred years drew the biggest crowds both in the Republic and under the Emperors. The shows there delighted the masses who knew, no matter how low their place in society, they were much better off than the gladiators about to fight or the beasts to be slaughtered. Some of the Roman elites were disgusted, seeing this popular entertainment as morally corrupting and un-Roman. Moral degradation was a less immediate concern though than the overspill of violence. There was a constant threat of gladiators being used as a private army and while those of the elite wealthy enough to stage the shows hoped to win great prestige, they risked disappointing a crowd which could quickly become a mob and turn on them.With Kathleen Coleman James Loeb Professor of the Classics at Harvard UniversityJohn Pearce Reader in Archaeology at King's College LondonAndMatthew Nicholls Fellow and Senior Tutor at St John's College, OxfordProducer: Simon TillotsonReading list:C.

Dr. Kristin Collier joins host Dr. Mike Chupp and regular co-host Dr. Brick Lantz for part one of a two-part conversation on IVF and assisted reproductive technologies, an issue that touches real marriages, real longing, and often deep heartbreak. The desire for children is good and God-given, yet the technologies designed to help can raise significant ethical questions for Christian families and healthcare professionals. In this episode, Dr. Collier, Associate Professor of Internal Medicine at the University of Michigan and a leading voice on human dignity at the margins of life, helps us explore why being “pro-baby” cannot mean “by any means necessary.” Grounded in the imago Dei, we consider what's often overlooked in the IVF process, including embryo loss, freezing, genetic screening, and the broader moral framework shaping modern reproductive medicine.

Falo sobre decisão do TJSC que condenou Jonas Bressan por danos morais coletivos em razão de postagens xenofóbicas contra nordestinos logo após as eleições presidenciais de 2022. Lembro que o mesmo tribunal já o havia condenado criminalmente e discuto os fundamentos jurídicos da decisão, inclusive a comparação feita entre a incitação concreta à discriminação e o 3º Reich.

El Tribunal Supremo ha confirmado la condena de cárcel del exconcejal del PP en el Ayuntamiento de Jaén Manuel del Moral por el caso Matinsreg, la trama de facturas infladas entre 2012 y 2013 que conllevó un perjuicio económico de más de 3,4 millones de euros para las arcas del ayuntamiento de Jaén.El Plan Andalucía Actúa impulsado por la junta para paliar los daños ocasionados por el tren de borrascas que ha asolado la comunidad librará una partida económica de 1780 millones de euros para las ocho provincias.

Morality often sounds noble, but I want you to listen closer. In this episode, I explain how moral language is usually not neutral, especially when it comes from people in power. Many times, it is used to hide real interests and create leverage without saying what is actually going on. If I tell you my true agenda, I lose some control. So instead, people dress it up as “what's right” or “what's fair.” You see this all the time in politics and leadership. I break down how to spot the power move behind the moral talk and how to stay emotionally detached so you don't get pulled in. Show Notes: [02:32]#1 Morality is a substitute for insufficient authority. [13:50]#2 Morality is applied selectively, not universally. [18:04]#3 Moral language shifts disputes from outcome based to character base.  [21:25]#4 Judges of morality control the entire chessboard if you allow them to be the judge.  [23:28]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 2400: Framing In Conversations: The Tools [1/2] 2401: Framing In Conversations: The Tools [2/2] Next Steps: --- Power Presence is not taught.

Higher education's public trust problem is not something presidents can fix with better messaging. In this conversation, AAC&U President Dr. Lynn Pasquerella describes a structural squeeze on institutional independence that shows up as academic freedom fights, curriculum mandates, and growing skepticism about higher education's value. In episode 300 of the Changing Higher Ed® podcast, Dr. Drumm McNaughton speaks with Dr. Pasquerella about why liberal education is often misunderstood, why academic freedom is inseparable from institutional autonomy, and why presidents and boards need to treat this moment as a governance and mission issue, not a temporary political cycle. Pasquerella explains how these pressures tend to escalate incrementally, why institutions lost control of the public narrative, and what it takes to rebuild credibility through community anchoring, transparency, and a renewed public-good case for higher education. This conversation is especially relevant for institutional leaders navigating legislative interference, polarized stakeholder environments, and the operational consequences of eroding trust. Topics Discussed Why academic freedom and institutional autonomy erode incrementally What Supreme Court precedent signals about academic freedom and university self-governance Why liberal education is about intellectual freedom, not partisan ideology How higher education lost the public narrative and why marketing is not the solution Moral distress and moral injury in the presidency under coercive mandates Belonging uncertainty, cognitive bandwidth, and the institutional impact of student wellbeing Community anchoring as the practical path to rebuilding trust How institutions can reimagine learning without abandoning rigor Real-World Examples Discussed Legislative interference that dictates curriculum and constrains shared governance. The closure of a college as a community-level loss, not only an institutional event. How belonging signals show up later as persistence, completion, and learning outcomes. Why transparency about tradeoffs affects institutional credibility How community advisory input can keep programs aligned with civic and workforce needs. Three Key Takeaways for University Presidents and Boards Treat academic freedom and institutional independence as a board-level governance priority, because erosion is gradual and easy to normalize. Rebuild trust through consistent community presence and usefulness, not positioning statements. Address belonging and wellbeing as institutional effectiveness variables, because belonging uncertainty reduces cognitive bandwidth and performance.

How are these abusive teen rehab centers still open? Why are parents still sending their kids there? Can't they be shut down? Maia Szalavitz is an award-winning author and journalist who covers addiction and neuroscience. Her book, Help at Any Cost: How the Troubled-Teen Industry Cons Parents and Hurts Kids, is the first comprehensive look at systemic abuse in “tough love” programs and helped spur Congressional hearings & GAO investigations. In this episode, you'll hear how the abusive teen rehab centers featured in Netflix's The Program & Wayward (think Straight Inc., The Seed, Synanon & wilderness camps) began with tough love doctrine, why you can legally treat kids worse than prisoners, why parents aren't suing & why regulations just don't stick. We also weave in the perspective of struggling parents who feel that the anti-troubled teen industry is hurting their healing efforts.  If you like this episode, you'll also like episode 248: SURVIVING THE TROUBLED TEEN INDUSTRY: SEPARATING IDENTITY FROM EXPERIENCE [REMASTERED] Guest:https://x.com/maiasz https://maiasz.com/ Resources:Boy who was raised as a dog https://a.co/d/0bA3dxmi Pace Center for Girls Pensacola https://www.pacecenter.org/locations/florida/escambia-santa-rosa/ Gulf Coast Kids House https://www.gulfcoastkidshouse.org/ Greenhouse Counseling https://www.ghcpensacola.com/  Host:  https://www.meredithforreal.com/  https://www.instagram.com/meredithforreal/ meredith@meredithforreal.comhttps://www.youtube.com/meredithforreal  https://www.facebook.com/meredithforrealthecuriousintrovert  Sponsors: https://www.jordanharbinger.com/starterpacks/ https://www.historicpensacola.org/about-us/  02:00 — The cult origins: Synanon begins04:00 — “I must have needed that” psychology05:00 — The rattlesnake assassination attempt07:00 — The Seed and brainwashing teens08:00 — Straight Incorporated goes national10:00 — Why parents don't believe abuse reports12:00 — Utah wilderness programs rise13:00 — The death of Aaron Bacon14:00 — Moral panic & religious fear15:00 — Good parents, fatal decisions16:00 — Why regulation keeps failing17:00 — Regulatory capture in Utah20:00 — Unannounced inspections change everything22:00 — Why traumatized kids need gentleness27:00 — Warehouses of neglect28:00 — Should therapy have an FDA?29:00 — Renaming punishment as treatment32:00 — Exhausted parents & marketing fear34:00 — How small power corrupts42:00 — Why lawsuits rarely succeed44:00 — Private right of action explained45:00 — Does awareness help or hurt?46:00 — Educational consultants & kickbacks54:00 — Local resources for struggling families55:00 — Undoing drugs & keeping people aliveRequest to join my private Facebook Group, MFR Curious Insiders https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1BAt3bpwJC/

In this long-awaited episode of Breaking the Rules, we finally do a deep dive into contamination-themed OCD — one of the most common, misunderstood, and physically debilitating OCD presentations.This conversation goes far beyond clichés about handwashing and cleanliness. We unpack what contamination OCD actually looks like day-to-day: the pain, the exhaustion, the food avoidance, the disrupted routines, the impact on relationships, parenting, work, and health — and the quiet suffering that often goes unseen.We explore both physical contamination fears (germs, illness, food safety, asbestos, chemicals) and moral contamination, where people fear being “tainted” by proximity to someone or something that conflicts with their values. The episode also tackles one of the trickiest clinical questions: how to work with ego-syntonic rules without turning therapy into another rigid rule system.This is an essential listen for clinicians, clients, and loved ones wanting a clearer, more compassionate understanding of contamination OCD — and how ERP can be done flexibly, ethically, and effectively.

Ferdinand von Schirach ist Strafverteidiger und Bestsellerautor – und jemand, der sich seit Jahrzehnten mit Schuld, Gerechtigkeit und der Würde des Menschen beschäftigt. Das letzte Mal war er 2021 im Hotel zu Gast. Ich wollte von ihm wissen, was ein gerechtes Gesetz ist – und ob es so etwas überhaupt geben kann. Wir sprechen über die Würde des Menschen, über das moralphilosophische Gedankenexperiment des Weichenstellers, über Demokratie, Kunst, eine Nahtoderfahrung und warum unser Steuersystem vielleicht nicht reformiert, sondern komplett neu gedacht werden müsste. Es geht um Macht, Verantwortung, Gerechtigkeit und um sein neues Kinderbuch, in dem er versucht, all das einem Zehnjährigen zu erklären.

Using public storytelling as a driving force, Moral Storytelling in 1920s New York, Odessa, and Bombay: Sex, Crime, Violence, and Nightlife in the Modern City (Bloomsbury, 2026) by Dr. Mark D. Steinberg explores everyday social moralities relating to stories of sex, crime, violence, and nightlife in the 1920s city space. Focusing on capitalist New York, communist Odessa, and colonial Bombay, Dr. Steinberg taps into the global dimension of complex everyday moral anxiety that was prevalent in a vital and troubled decade.Moral Storytelling in 1920s New York, Odessa, and Bombay compares and connects stories of the street in three compelling cosmopolitan port cities. It offers novel insights into significant and varied areas of study, including city life, sex, prostitution, jazz, dancing, gangsters, criminal undergrounds, cinema, ethnic and racial experiences and conflicts, prohibition and drinking, street violence, 'hooliganism' and other forms of 'deviance' in the contexts of capitalism, colonialism, communism, and nationalism.The book tells the stories of moralizers: empowered and insistent critics of deviance driven to investigate, interpret, and interfere with how people lived and played. Beside them, not always comfortably, were the policemen and journalists who enforced and documented these efforts. It also reveals the histories of women and men, mostly working class and young, who were observed and categorized: those judged to be wayward, disreputable, disorderly, debauched, and wild. Dr. Steinberg explores this global culture war and the everyday moral improvisations-shaped by experiences of class, generation, gender, ethnicity, and race-that came with it. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Chris Markowski discusses the importance of understanding financial reality, the principles of Adam Smith's capitalism, and the moral philosophy behind economics. He critiques the current state of government involvement in the economy, the retirement crisis facing Gen X, and the flaws in traditional investment strategies. Markowski also highlights the entertainment nature of financial media and the missteps of private equity firms, particularly in relation to Ivy League investments. The episode concludes with a discussion on the implications of Goldman Sachs' connections to Jeffrey Epstein and the broader issues of accountability in the financial sector.

Everything You Trusted ....Was Designed to Keep You AsleepBeloved,There's a particular kind of pain that comes not from physical injury, but from something far deeper—the shattering of trust in what we believed was good, true, and safe.It has a name: moral injury.And if you've been feeling confused or depressed, listen or read to the end.Moral injury happens when someone or something we deeply trusted—an authority figure, an institution, a system we built our lives around—reveals itself to be the opposite of what we believed it to be.

Today on Questions with Father, we look upward—quite literally. What does the Catholic Church say about space travel? Is exploring the cosmos a noble pursuit, or does it risk becoming a modern Tower of Babel? We reflect on Pope Pius XII's encouragement of scientific exploration, the real medical and scientific benefits gained from space missions, and the moral principles that help us judge the risks involved. We also examine the modern push toward space tourism, lunar colonization, and even reshaping human identity through technology. Where does legitimate discovery end and hubris begin?

Die Epstein-Affäre zieht immer größere Kreise. Ex-Prinz Andrew wird von der britischen Polizei verhaftet. Was sagt der Fall Epstein über die Moral in unserer Gesellschaft? Warum scheint Recht und Gesetz nicht für alle zu gelten? Über diese Fragen sprechen Markus Lanz und Richard David Precht in dieser Folge. Erleben wir die „spätrömische Dekadenz“ des 21. Jahrhunderts? Richard David Precht blickt auf die Abgründe des absolutistischen Frankreichs und der römischen Senatoren und kommt zu dem Schluss: „Wann immer eine Sozialnorm auf eine Marktnorm trifft, wird die Sozialnorm kannibalisiert.“ Der Fall Epstein jedenfalls wirkt wie eine „Säure für die Demokratie.“

CNN is airing a documentary on the rise of “Christian nationalism” just as Lent begins. Coincidence—or calculated political timing? In today's episode of The Todd Huff Show, Todd breaks down what Christian nationalism actually means, how the Founders viewed God and government, and why the debate over America's moral foundation is intensifying in an election year.Are conservatives trying to establish a theocracy—or simply defending the belief that our rights come from God, not government? Todd examines the Declaration of Independence, C.S. Lewis, and the cultural confusion surrounding faith and politics.If America isn't built on biblical principles… what replaces them?

Segment 1 • A popular teaching claims Christians become “little gods”—but what does Scripture actually say? • Todd exposes how modern theology elevates man while diminishing God's exclusive glory. • Why confusing your created nature with God's uncreated, divine nature leads to catastrophic spiritual consequences. Segment 2 • A shocking confrontation reveals how moral outrage is now directed at the wrong targets. • Todd explains how Romans 1 warns us of the collapse of moral reasoning—and why we're seeing it so frequently today. • The real question: How do you reach people whose thinking is fundamentally broken by sin? Segment 3 • Why modern political outrage often ignores genuine evil while obsessing over symbolism and seemingly insignificant details. • Todd exposes the inconsistency between public virtue signaling and true moral contradictions on a deeper level. • What happens when cultural compassion and morality lose their grounding in God's truth? Segment 4 • Most gospel presentations today may be missing a critical—and biblical—element. • Paul Washer's prison sermon reveals what people must understand before grace makes sense. • Todd confronts a sobering possibility: Have Christians softened the gospel too much? ___ Thanks for listening!

It's a must-read that every person, religious and non-religious, should buy and peruse every night before bed. It'll make you think harder, pray more ardently, and understand your civilization better." — Ben Shapiro, host of "The Ben Shapiro Show" "Dennis Prager's commentary on Exodus will rank among the greatest modern Torah commentaries. That is how important I think it is. And I am clearly not alone... It might well be on its way to becoming the most widely read Torah commentary of our time—and by non-Jews as well as by Jews." — Rabbi Joseph Telushkin, bestselling author of Jewish Literacy Why do so many people think the Bible, the most influential book in world history, is outdated? Why do our friends and neighbors – and sometimes we ourselves – dismiss the Bible as irrelevant, irrational, immoral, or all of these things? This explanation of the Book of Exodus, the second book of the Bible, will demonstrate that the Bible is not only powerfully relevant to today's issues, but completely consistent with rational thought. Do you think the Bible permitted the trans-Atlantic slave trade? You won't after reading this book. Do you struggle to love your parents? If you do, you need this book. Do you doubt the existence of God because belief in God is “irrational?” This book will give you reason after reason to rethink your doubts. The title of this commentary is, “The Rational Bible” because its approach is entirely reason-based. The reader is never asked to accept anything on faith alone. As Prager says, “If something I write does not make rational sense, I have not done my job.” The Rational Bible is the fruit of Dennis Prager's forty years of teaching the Bible to people of every faith, and no faith. On virtually every page, you will discover how the text relates to the contemporary world and to your life. His goal: to change your mind – and then change your life.   Highly Recommended by ACU.

⭐Bride of Frankenstein (1935) - Gods, Monsters, and Moral Chaos (Plot Synopsis) ⭐

You ever try to snowboard while claiming a bad back? No? Good. Because apparently insurance companies are out here hiring private investigators to follow you to the grocery store and check your TikTok for “too active” behavior. We kicked things off today with a deep dive into the wild world of insurance claim surveillance — including a viral PI who caught a guy shredding a mountain while supposedly injured. Moral of the story: if you're gonna commit fraud… maybe don't hit the halfpipe.From there, we spiraled (as we do) into workplace comp horror stories, gorilla courtroom pranks that may or may not be real, and why oversharing on social media is basically volunteering to lose your case. It's education. It's cautionary. It's chaotic. It's the kind of thing only a daily comedy show like this can turn into group therapy with punchlines.Then in Crap On Celebrities:Dee Snider assures everyone he's NOT dying (we promise, he said it).Shia LaBeouf goes full Mardi Gras meltdown. Again.Cardi B announces she's “taking some out.” Yes, that's exactly what you think it means.Dr. Dre turns 61 and we celebrate with bangers that defined a generation.We also debate weird “favorite bands” (if your favorite band is Dishwalla, we need to talk), question cinematic universe crossovers, and somehow end up discussing Yoko Ono screaming at Chuck Berry. As one does.And then — the chaos crescendo:

Fr. Spitzer and Doug discuss how the core message of the Old Testament is inerrant and how the outward form of the message, that is subject to undeveloped thought, is not inerrant.

Fr. Mike breaks down the three types of law we find in Leviticus, including moral laws regarding sexuality. Today's readings are Exodus 24, Leviticus 17-18, and Psalm 78.

Today we talk about the book After Virtue by Alasdair MacIntyre. We talk about his genealogy of moral discourse. The teleologies of Aristotle. The failure of the Enlightenment moral project. Our modern culture of Emotivism and the sorts of characters that thrive in it. Shared practices and community as a way to revitalize moral conversation.
