In this episode, we are joined by Professor Jens Scherpe (Professor of Comparative Law at Aalborg University, and academic door tenant at QEB), and our very own Resolution Cohabitation Committee Chair, Graeme Fraser (Head of Family at William Sturges) to discuss what model of cohabitation law reform should be introduced in England & Wales.   This is a seminal moment for Resolution.  It has been campaigning to achieve family law remedies for cohabitees almost since its inception in 1983, with it being high on its list of priorities since the mid-1990s. The new government has confirmed they are committed to cohabitation reform, so what shape should that take?  What Resolution members know is that the general law is not good enough for families.  If you need convincing, Jens guides us to think - do you think cohabiting families are families? If yes, then you need family law remedies (rather than remedies for people with no connection because purpose of family law (unlike general law) is to address societal, financial and gender imbalances that arise from being a family.    Which model would you support? Do you think, we should: Assimilate the law for cohabitees – so use the same framework that we do for married couples; OR have aDifference model - so there is a clear difference between the remedy for a  cohabiting couple, or a married couple. With all family law remedies, you then need to decide are you: a.      Compensating a partner for the loss they have experienced generated by the relationship; OR b.      Sharing the fruits of the relationship both parties have participated in.  Graeme and Jens explore the law for cohabitees in Scotland, Ireland and Australia to consider the pros and cons of each model.  We then put them on the spot to what they think we should do in England & Wales.  In the conversation, Graeme refers us to the Law Commission report from 2007: https://cloud-platform-e218f50a4812967ba1215eaecede923f.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/sites/30/2015/03/lc307_Cohabitation.pdfAnd the Vision for Family Justice: https://resolution.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/Resolution-Vision-for-Family-Justice-full-221123.pdf If you would like to read more about this, then please do look at Jen's books about comparative law: Jens M.

Close Your BonesIn the final chapter of our ongoing financial roller coaster, a hero arrives—in a white coat, not a cape. It's a bird, it's a plane…actually, is that Air Force One?! Then, a letter from a rectal cancer survivor whose fertility didn't make it. How do we honor that grief and explore closure (literally)? Stef outs herself as a full moon hippie (we knew it, didn't we, listeners?) and Amy's biting on others' cultural rituals? Amy! We've talked about this! Then, a *deeply* touchy topic with major science potential: harvesting hard-to-get tumors. The gals spitball how to help a study find its subjects. It's body talk that no one knows how to broach. Ahem, yes we said BODIES (fair warning). And in RATS, a travel grant took Stef to the Lobular Breast Cancer Symposium and she's back to tell the tale. What happens when you see yourself as a data point on a screen? In this case? It's thrilling! This episode is dedicated to Rach.

Phillip Gerard in his essay “An Architecture of Light” speaks of the idea of the Signature, a through-line that buttresses the ceiling of your novel so that it doesn't sink in the middle (or collapse altogether). But that through-line also needs to rise and escalate for the book to reach that transcendent place (or that ceiling) to begin with. Helping us think through these ideas is writer Nicole Vecchiotti.Nicole Vecchiotti has worked in the publishing since 1997—working at a large publishing house, with small boutique literary agents, booksellers, and even a book distribution company. In 2006, she founded Union Park Press, a Boston-based book publisher specializing in regional non-fiction. She sold the press in 2019, but her titles are still being published by Globe Pequot Press. Her Novel Incubator manuscript, Mommyland, is currently locked inside a drawer, screaming to get out while she finishes a second novel, The Weather Girl, a dark comedy featuring an ensemble of quirky characters, including a superhero trying to save the planet by stopping climate change, the meteorologist who leaves her family to join his cause, and the meteorologist's son, who vows revenge against his one-time idol.  Noted in this Podcast: “An Architecture of Light: Structuring the Novel and Story Collection” an essay by Philip Gerard in Creating Fiction edited by Julie Checkoway.

These 2 tasks are at odds with each other because establishing a therapeutic relationship entails honesty and a sense of safety that can be compromised if young people believe that what they need and deserve (potentially blockers, hormones, or surgery) can be denied them according to the information they provide to the therapist.” This excerpt strongly suggests she doesn't believe in the traditional gatekeeping role a mental-health clinician might play in a situation like this, helping to determine if a young person will benefit from transitioning.https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapediatrics/article-abstract/2504256Kids — sorry, sorry — “adolescents” — getting double mastectomies at 13 or 14https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29507933/“Suicide Attempts among Transgender and Gender Non-Conforming Adults: Findings of the Naitonal Transgender Discrimination Survey.”https://williamsinstitute.law.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/Trans-GNC-Suicide-Attempts-Jan-2014.pdfn.b.: “Without such probes, we were unable to determine the extent to which the 41 percent of NTDS participants who reported ever attempting suicide may overestimate the actual prevalence of attempts in the sample.” And:Finally, it should be emphasized that the NTDS, like all similar surveys, captured information about suicide attempts, not completed suicide. Lacking any information about completed suicide among transgender people (due primarily to decedents not being identified by gender identity or transgender status), it may be tempting to consider suicide attempt data to be the best available proxy measure of suicide death. Data from the U.S. population at large, however, show clear demographic differences between suicide attempters and those who die by suicide. While almost 80 percent of all suicide deaths occur among males, about 75 percent of suicide attempts are made by females. Adolescents, who overall have a relatively low suicide rate of about 7 per 100,000 people, account for a substantial proportion of suicide attempts, making perhaps 100 or more attempts for every suicide death. 13 suicides per 100,000 in a GIDS samplehttps://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10508-022-02287-7Insanely high rate of 2.8% in a Belgian clinical samplehttps://biblio.ugent.be/publication/8706800/file/8707586.pdfT H E G U I D E L I N E SStewart: So these, the guidelines that you wrote, because you were responsible with the endocrine board for writing guidelines of care for endocrinology.Safer: The Endocrine Society, yesStewart: The endocrine society.Yes.Stewart: And that was based on, uh, research papers, data, the things that you saw.

Parents with children who have gender dysphoria, have lost children, to suicide, and depression. Rutledge : They absolutely have.Stewart: —because it's acute. And so these mainstream medical organizations have developed guidelines through peer reviewed data, and studies. And through those guidelines, they've improved mental health outcomes.Rutledge's read on the evidence is perfectly reasonableHere's Sweden's National Board of Health and Welfare:For adolescents with gender incongruence, the [National Board of Health and Welfare] deems that the risks of puberty suppressing treatment with GnRH-analogues and gender-affirming hormonal treatment currently outweigh the possible benefits, and that the treatments should be offered only in exceptional cases. … To minimize the risk that a young person with gender incongruence later will regret a gender-affirming treatment, the NBHW deems that the criteria for offering GnRH-analogue and gender-affirming hormones should link more closely to those used in the Dutch protocol, where the duration of gender incongruence over time is emphasized.https://www.socialstyrelsen.se/globalassets/sharepoint-dokument/artikelkatalog/kunskapsstod/2022-3-7799.pdfAnd here's Finlands' Council for Choices in Health Care, via an unofficial translationIn light of available evidence, gender reassignment of minors is an experimental practice. Based on studies examining gender identity in minors, hormonal interventions may be considered before reaching adulthood in those with firmly established transgender identities, but it must be done with a great deal of caution, and no irreversible treatment should be initiated. Information about the potential harms of hormone therapies is accumulating slowly and is not systematically reported. It is critical to obtain information on the benefits and risks of these treatments in rigorous research settings.https://segm.org/sites/default/files/Finnish_Guidelines_2020_Minors_Unofficial%20Translation.pdfNHS headed same wayhttps://www.engage.england.nhs.uk/specialised-commissioning/gender-dysphoria-services/user_uploads/b1937-ii-specialist-service-for-children-and-young-people-with-gender-dysphoria-1.pdfDutch stuffhttps://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/0092623X.2022.2121238https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/0092623X.2022.2046221Depression and suicidality linked to blockers, perhaps rarelyhttps://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/label/2016/019732s042,020517s038lbl.pdfThttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3693622/“Testosterone Therapy is Associated With Depression, Suicidality, and Intentional Self-Harm: Analysis of a National Federated Database”https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1743609522012449#:~:text=Testosterone%20use%20was%20independently%20associated,testosterone%20deficient%20sub%2Dgroup%20analysisThe book to read on Thttps://www.amazon.com/Story-Testosterone-Hormone-Dominates-Divides/dp/1250236061The desistane literature is by no means “debunked,” and if you actually read the studies, no, the clinicians who wrote them did not confuse a bunch of merely gender nonconforming kids for genuinely gender dysphoric onesThese studies aren't perfect and come from different contexts, but they consistently tell the same storyhttp://www.sexologytoday.org/2016/01/do-trans-kids-stay-trans-when-they-grow_99.htmlThat story probably doesn't apply to kids who socially transition at a young age https://www.nytimes.com/2022/05/04/health/transgender-children-identity.htmlhttps://publications.aap.org/pediatrics/article/150/2/e2021056082/186992/Gender-Identity-5-Years-After-Social-Transition?autologincheck=redirected%3fnfToken%3d00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000Even at the bigger clinics that do take a multidisciplinary approach, and where kids could theoretically get comprehensive, holistic care, that isn't always happeninghttps://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/usa-transyouth-care/In interviews with Reuters, doctors and other staff at 18 gender clinics across the country described their processes for evaluating patients. None described anything like the months-long assessments de Vries and her colleagues adopted in their research. At most of the clinics, a team of professionals – typically a social worker, a psychologist and a doctor specializing in adolescent medicine or endocrinology – initially meets with the parents and child for two hours or more to get to know the family, their medical history and their goals for treatment. They also discuss the benefits and risks of treatment options. Seven of the clinics said that if they don't see any red flags and the child and parents are in agreement, they are comfortable prescribing puberty blockers or hormones based on the first visit, depending on the age of the child. “For those kids, there's not a value of stretching it out for six months to do assessments,” said Dr Eric Meininger, senior physician for the gender health program at Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis. “They've done their research, and they truly understand the risk.”2020 Finnish studyhttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31762394/Those who did well in terms of psychiatric symptoms and functioning before cross-sex hormones mainly did well during real-life.

Although the Gender Identity Development Service (GIDS) advises this is a physically reversible treatment if stopped, it is not known what the psychological effects may be. It's also not known whether hormone blockers affect the development of the teenage brain or children's bones. Side effects may also include hot flushes, fatigue and mood alterations.Serious Lupron side effectshttps://www.statnews.com/2017/02/02/lupron-puberty-children-health-problems/For years, Sharissa Derricott, 30, had no idea why her body seemed to be failing. At 21, a surgeon replaced her deteriorated jaw joint. She's been diagnosed with degenerative disc disease and fibromyalgia, a chronic pain condition. Her teeth are shedding enamel and cracking. None of it made sense to her until she discovered a community of women online who describe similar symptoms and have one thing in common: All had taken a drug called Lupron. Thousands of parents chose to inject their daughters with the drug, which was approved to shut down puberty in young girls but also is commonly used off-label to help short kids grow taller. The drug's pediatric version comes with few warnings about long-term side effects. It is also used in adults to fight prostate cancer or relieve uterine pain and the Food and Drug Administration has warnings on the drug's adult labels about a variety of side effects. More than 10,000 adverse event reports filed with the FDA reflect the experiences of women who've taken Lupron. The reports describe everything from brittle bones to faulty joints. In interviews and in online forums, women who took the drug as young girls or initiated a daughter's treatment described harsh side effects that have been well-documented in adults.Caroline Jemsbyhttps://www.journalismfund.eu/journalists/carolina-jemsbyGULDSPADENhttps://archive.ph/wip/GFuryClip in questionhttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1bL4WWMCs46dCKweZzz0gBj1AqE62k3oj/view?usp=sharingFull unlocked interview with JesseGLAAD is glad journalists are falling in linehttps://www.glaad.org/blog/jon-stewart-sets-record-straight-gender-affirming-carehttps://www.glaad.org/blog/john-oliver-explains-why-gender-affirming-care-is-so-importantBut sometimes nothttps://www.glaad.org/gap/jesse-singalJesse's response to the original version of his page (he hasn't yet responded to the new one, which went up after this, because life is short): The TikTok Doc yeets some teetshttps://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/26/health/top-surgery-transgender-teenagers.htmlWhoops:Dr. Gallagher of Miami said that she follows up with patients for up to a year. “I can say this honestly: I don't know of a single case of regret,” Dr. Gallagher said in May, adding that regret was much more common with cosmetic procedures. But one of her former top surgery patients, Grace Lidinsky-Smith, has been vocal about her detransition on social media and in news reports. “I slowly came to terms with the fact that it had been a mistake born out of a mental health crisis,” Ms. Lidinsky-Smith, 28, said in an interview.So basically, these clinicians are claiming top surgery has incredibly low regret rates, but they're simply not bothering to keep in touch with their patients. And one year is not very long for followup on this — if you give a kid top surgery at 15 or 16, one of the questions is whether, as their peers sexually develop and start families, they'll at some point wish they had breasts. It's a totally natural, important question, and you can't answer it if your patients are disappearing into the void just one year after you perform surgery on them.Age guidelineshttps://www.cdc.gov/hiv/policies/law/states/minors.htmlOliver: So the benefits of providing care are immense and the risks of withholding it are dire. A survey of around 28,000 trans people found that of those who wanted hormone therapy and didn't receive it 58% reported suicidal thoughts in a given year, which is why the three major professional associations of Child and Adolescent doctors, psychologists and psychiatrists have endorsed gender affirming care and condemned efforts to deny it. https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0261039This study is ridiculous and doesn't even show any correlation between access to hormones and improvement on the more serious suicide measures anywayOliver: You may have seen or heard from a small subset of people who D transitioned but it is worth noting such cases are rare and highly individualized. Studies show an average of just 2% of people who transition expressed regret. And the vast majority of those who have opted to detransition did so not because of changes in their gender identity but due to external factors such as stigma and lack of social support. Supposedly 1% - 2% regret ratehttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8099405/Lost to follow datahttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Yog0cUgVufxoTY64q-ll1wr7XcBhuqKD/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=102378063559486309340&rtpof=true&sd=trueOliver is relying not on a study of detransitioners, but on individuals who currently identify as transhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8213007/Littman study of detransitionershttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34665380/Reasons for detransitioning were varied and included: experiencing discrimination (23.0%); becoming more comfortable identifying as their natal sex (60.0%); having concerns about potential medical complications from transitioning (49.0%); and coming to the view that their gender dysphoria was caused by something specific such as trauma, abuse, or a mental health condition (38.0%). Homophobia or difficulty accepting themselves as lesbian, gay, or bisexual was expressed by 23.0% as a reason for transition and subsequent detransition. The majority (55.0%) felt that they did not receive an adequate evaluation from a doctor or mental health professional before starting transition and only 24.0% of respondents informed their clinicians that they had detransitioned.  This is a public episode.

The late Ken Robinson, in one of his TED talks, tells the story of a child who was drawing with wild strokes. The teacher asked - What are you drawing? And the child replied "God". The teacher said, "But nobody knows what God looks like." And the child said, "Well. They will in a minute." Badum Tshhhh.Last week we explored what people are talking about when the talk about gods. But for most people, this is a secondary aspect of religion - the primary aspect being the rituals.

Patanjali Yoga sutras, written almost 2500 years ago, are the earliest treatise on Yoga. In the book Sage Patanjali enunciates in a scientific manner how to control thought – a process which makes the mind powerful enough so that when it focuses on any subject its complete knowledge results.In this broadcast Dr. Rajvanshi shows the deep science of sutras and how they match what has been discovered now by science. It is really uncanny that Patanjali wrote about all these almost 2500 years ago.The URL of this talk is: https://nariphaltan.org/patanjaliscience.pdfAnd a YouTube lecture is at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ud9bL68TRbI

Mike Leiter grew up in Englewood, New Jersey, where his extraordinary public service career began early – in high school – when he worked as an Emergency Medical Technician. After graduating from Columbia University, Mike served as a Naval Flight Officer before attending Harvard Law School, where he was one of only four military veterans in his class of more than 500 students. At Harvard, Mike was elected President of the prestigious Harvard Law Review – a job once held by Barack Obama.After clerking on the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit for Judge Michael Boudin and then on the United States Supreme Court for Justice Stephen Breyer, Mike worked as a federal prosecutor. He left that job to become a key staffer on the Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) Commission - which examined substantial US Intelligence Community failures in the lead up to the 2003 invasion of Iraq.Ultimately, Mike directed the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC) under Presidents Bush and Obama – the organization responsible for analyzing terrorism threats against the United States and its interests, at home and abroad.Mike shares with host Chuck Rosenberg fascinating insights on the US intelligence community, as someone who studied it on the WMD commission and as someone who ran a vital part of it at NCTC.

There's nothing like a podcast on summertime vocations...That pun is for Crystal...Seriously, though, there are those that take the notion of vocational discernment out of the larger context of the calls God places on our hearts, and out of context, discerning things like marriage or religious life is well-nigh impossible. Having a well-ordered understanding of God's calls, and discerning them properly, and acting rightly in the moment, are extraordinarily important in living out a full Catholic life.We rely heavily on a book put out by the Habinger Institute for Catholic Leadership, of the University of St. Thomas, called True Leadership. The pdf can be found here: https://www.stthomas.edu/media/catholicstudies/center/ryan/publications/publicationpdfs/trueleadership/TrueLeadershipClunyEdition.pdfAnd you can purchase the book here or https://www.amazon.com/True-Leadership-Habiger-Institute-Catholic/dp/1944418717 .

While this can appear to be a strange exercise, what our church believes is often a box that has been built for us, given to us, and most christians are unaware of it. It is important to examine our boxes to see if they are still serving us well spiritually, or if they are in need of upgrading, review, and discussion. The biggest danger comes in not being aware of our box, or confusing our box with the Bible. The Bible, by design needs to be interpreted in order to be properly understood, and in the spirit of the Bible being living and active (Hebrews 4:12) it speaks into each age in new and sometimes surprising ways.Main Points -This is the hardest part. In terms of being aware of their biases most Christians live entire lives without being aware of their box. It is especially tough for Christians to be aware of the box that they are in, because they are usually surrounded by people who think similar if not identical to them. And to compound the problem all christians regardless of their denomination see the bible as the center of their faith.According to the World Christian Encyclopedia (WCE) there is an estimated 33,000+ distinct denominations of Christianity spread over 238 countries. The WCE breaks this down into broader categories as follows:While this exact figure has been debated and is considered controversial by some (see side bar), it is apparent that there are many different distinct boxes that different christians can and do fall into.The best way that I can see of understanding the box you may be operating out of is to look at a few things.Step one - How to see your box - Read your church’s Creed or statement of FaithThe first step is to look at whatever creed or statement of faith that your church tradition subscribes to. Again, many believers are blissfully unaware of their being any statement of faith or creed that they subscribe to.The importance of knowing your churches box (POV)A long time ago I was visiting another church tradition, and I got into a conversation with one of the people I was with. I was aware that their particular tradition believed in the transubstantiation of the eucharist (the communion wafer and the wine becoming the literal body and blood of Jesus during the mass). She was asking me what difference was there between my tradition and hers, we both believe in the same bible after all and read the same bible.I mentioned the transubstantiation being one place our traditions disagreed. Perplexed she asked me what that was. After explaining the concept to her she just laughed saying that was ridiculous and that her tradition certainly did not believe that. I grabbed a catechism from one of the pews and quickly found where it did in fact say that her tradition did believe in transubstantiation. She was confused wondering why she never knew this (she had grown up in this tradition and was an active member in the congregation).This is an illustrative example to me that people often are not even aware of what box they happen to find themselves in. However, even if we are not aware of something, does not mean that it cannot have power over us. I may be unaware of a car speeding around the corner, but even if I do not see it does not negate its power to seriously hurt me or even kill me. The boxes that are around us from our traditions are similar in power whether we are aware of them or not. Creeds and statements of faith are basically records of past arguments, and they are usually written down by the people who believe they won the argument.Before I joined the particular tradition I am in now, it is customary for members to study the bible with prospective members before joining. The idea is that they need to fully understand what they are getting into when joining this particular church. And admission for my tradition typically means agreement on certain doctrinal  points.One afternoon we were sitting in someones living room for about an hour or so going over some concept. While I will not go into detail here. Suffice it to say while at the time I agreed with them (especially with the scriptures that were being cherrypicked for the lesson) that what they were showing me in the Bible made sense. However, I did not really see the big deal to the discussion. They really seemed to be driving the point home, asking me several times and many different ways if I understood an agreed with what they were trying to tell me.I remember realizing at the moment that was getting glimpse on an argument that was older than me. That there was some conflict that lied beneath the surface that did not matter as much now as it did when this class was first put together. I remember saying as much. I remember the blank stares as well, and I think we simply moved on. At the time I did not think they understood what I was getting at, but I was content to move on as well. Even back then I did not mind people fully agreeing with me or seeing everything my way.Go and Read Your Creed (Or Statement of Faith)The first step in identifying your box is to go and read your churches creed or statement of faith.Now in my own particular tradition my church would claim that it has no creed because the Bible is its creed. This of course is extremely naive, and assumes that the Bible can simply be picked up by anybody and understood simplistically. But aside from this dangerous ideology (or restoration hermeneutic), there is still a way to get at what I would call my church’s creed or statement of faith.I went to my church’s website. Usually they publish on their site what they believe in, and hold to be indisputable. This is in a sense their creed.Find the packed suitcasesThe first step is to look for what I like to call packed language. N.T. likes to talk about how many phases and terms we tend to through around are like suitcases or baggage. There are short hand for biblical concepts or theological assumptions that have been argued, debated, and generally accepted as true to a particular denomination or tradition. While these shorthands can be extremely useful in discussions and sermons, they also have their drawbacks.In his book Scripture and the Authority of God, N.T. Wright talks at length about the necessity to take our theological baggage (or what I call packed language) labeled with shorthand’s such as original sin, fallen world, saved by grace, salvation, sovereignty of God, election, and other such shorthand’s, and make sure that we unpack it ever now and then and examine it.Is anything broken? Does everything still work correctly? Does anything need to be updated and replaced? Do I need to keep this? Are there some items that can be discarded as no longer useful?First suitcase - the trinityRight in the title we see an appeal to the concept of the trinity. It is taken as given that God is three distinct persons in one: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. However, this is not explicitly stated in scripture anywhere. A quick word search on BibleGateway.com for the trinity yields exactly zero results.While the Father, son, and the Holy Spirit does appear together in scriptures, it only occurs once. The Father, Son, and the Spirit appear together in Matthew 28:19 in what has come to be called the Great Commission (another shorthand that needs to be unpacked and looked at from time to time). In fact this concept of the trinity is not talked about at all in the scriptures. It is there if you look for it, and piece it together from different scriptures to make your case, but it was not something that the authors of the New Testament seemed to concern themselves with at all.In fact if you went back in time and started to talk to Paul about the trinity he would not have known what you were talking about. He most likely would have agreed with you after you explained it to him. But he (like most of us today) would not have understood the big deal, taking it for granted that there was one God and not three.Why does this matter anyway? It did not seem to matter to the New Testament, so why should it matter to us? Why do so many creeds and statements of faith state explicitly this assertion that God is three distinct persons with different attributes, but also one. Even here in my own churches our belief page it’s right there front and center.Creeds and Statements of faith as records of arguments long forgottenMost creeds and statements of faith are records of arguments that no one cares about anymore. At some point there must have been a controversy about the trinity, and about whether or not there was one God or three. And the controversy was so pronounced and so severe that they thought it was a good idea to write it down and make sure no one would ever forget that truly there is only one God.This can seem crazy to many of us. How could anyone think there is more than one god in the Bible. However, is you look at the Bible closely enough this is not such a crazy idea. (If you have never been reading your bible and wondered about this I can promise you that you are not reading your Bible carefully or often enough.)Through the first five books of the bible it is never explicitly stated that there is only one God, and the Torah seems to take as given the reality of other gods or other spiritual entities.  It did not take scholars long to notice this either, and it is not even just a Christian idea. Very long ago people noticed that there seemed to be different aspects of God that some people began to see as entirely different people.For instance in the Hebrew Bible (or Old Testament) God is sometimes referred to as El Elohim (GOD) and is sometime referred to as Yahweh (LORD GOD). And these were not just two different names like El Elohim was Gods proper name, and Yahweh was the nickname. These seemed to have entirely different personalities, enough so that at times they can even appear to be two separate people.For example El Elohim is the one who spoke the world into existence, and separated the mighty waters to create dry land. But Yahweh made man with with his own two hands, and walked and talked with the man and woman in the cool of the day.El Elohim is larger than life and seems all powerful. Yahweh at times seems more human like, and even seems to lose track of Adam and Eve after they sin.One of these characters is more relatable and you could imagine hanging out with him, while the other is strange and capable of wonders and powerful deeds.This led some to conclude that these were two distinct individuals. Or two separate gods. Since Judaism then and now is a monotheistic religion and not polytheistic (another two great shorthands), how then can there be two Gods in the Old Testament? The simple that Scholars of came up with is that these are merely names of God, different titles that highlight a different personality of God.Something similar happened when people began noticing the differences between the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. In many ways on close reading they seem like totally different people. Some even began wondering if they were separate Gods entirely. This caused, as you guessed it, a great and wonderful controversy that ragged on for many years. However, since it is not intuitive when reading the scriptures that these three entities are in fact three aspects of the one same God, it is still to this day something that is mentioned front and center in many creeds, in case anyone reading there bible carefully get any funny ideas.But like all things that are packed up in our suitcases of our packed language it is important to look at this every now and then properly. Does this really make sense? Do I believe this? Why do I believe this? What does this belief add to my fait? If it wasn’t important to the New Testament why should this be important to me? Do I really agree with this statement? Does this really matter anymore? Are there people who don’t believe in the triune nature of God? Why do they believe this? Why is this important to my church?Going through the creed like this and identifying the packed language, the shorthands, and theological baggage is a good practice to do on an annual to semi annual basis. Why? Because we must constantly examine even the things that we take for granted as being true and ask ourselves is this what I really believe? Is this concept still useful? Is this argument that this statement answers still relevant? Is it still useful?Or as Paul put it:Test yourselves to see if you are in the faith; examine yourselves! Or do you not recognize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you—unless indeed you [a]fail the test? [[a]Lit are unapproved]2 Corinthians 13:5It is important as a Christian to do this regularly. And honestly it is an expectation (2 Corinthians 13:5). As the new humanity (Ephesians 2:15) quite frankly it is our holy and sacred responsibility to be examining ourselves, what we believe, and what our church believes.Or to put it another way: What is our box?It is of vital importance to see our box and to continually question our box, to examine it and to see if our box is the box that we wish to be in. It is important to understand that you cannot escape the box!There is no such thing as purely independent thinking. There is not one true way to interpret the scriptures. It is important that we understand this. Do not seek to be free of biases — this is impossible. Instead be aware of your bias — be aware of your box. And then learn to question the box.Below I have briefly underlined some of the key shorthands, packed language, and theological suitcases that need some unpacking!Now, I admit that this is not the most specific statement of faith I have ever read. Since this is a public website my suspicion is that it was left as vague as possible so as not to turn off perspective attendees.However, my church tradition is a part of a much larger, international church tradition. Around 2006 they put together what was called a unity proposal. While all of these churches were once a larger corporate entity around 2003 many of these broke up into separate yet unified wholes. Most in our congregation are unaware of this unity statement, but it does a much better job of spelling out what churches that are a part of my tradition should believe, teach, and how their lives should be conducted.I am giving you a link to that unity statement here:http://icocco-op.org/wp-content/uploads/2006/03/englishproposal.pdfAnd at another time  I will break down that unity statement. I think it is a great attempt to spell out the beliefs of the tradition that I am currently in. I wish more regular people in our congregation were aware of it, and that it was taught from more from the church. I have been wanting to go over this as well since I have been unsure about my own tradition. I know that we are in need of reform. (We should always constantly be seeking out reform in our hearts and churches. (1 Corinthians 11:31))But what I highlighted in green for you above should give you enough of a base to study out. For instance some of the questions you could ask:What is a sister church?How do Jesus’ words heal?How is a soul saved?What does it mean for Scriptures to be inspired by God?

Do we see the world as gift? Do we see each other as gift? Do we see ourselves as a gift? Joseph and Crystal talk about the element of the Christian worldview that suffuses everyone and everything with wonder and should inspire gratitude. "You can't give what you don't have" and you can't have anything unless you accept the world as gift. We talk about why receive people and things as gift, and what the other options are as far as basic attitudes toward reality. Then we talk about the Giver of all gifts, and how we can receive from Him more of what He wants to give.Then we talk about the quality of givenness in other relationships. We get a little hung up on the question of how we have choice in regard to our relationships, but I think we got to a clearer point by the end.If you'd like to read more, there's a meditation on givenness by St. John Paul II, called "A Meditation on Givenness": https://www.communio-icr.com/files/jpii41-4.pdfAnd feel free to subscribe to this podcast as well as share it with others. Our goal is to produce faithful, formative, and conversation-starting content for Catholic disciples of Jesus who are wrestling to be missionary-minded in their normal, everyday lives-- so if that applies to you or a friend of yours, we're hoping to serve you as best as we're able! 

Today on the podcast we have Ali Parkerson, Owner and Nutritionist at Parkside Nutrition.Ali is a thought leader in a concept called the “Pre- Diet Philosophy” that I align so strongly with!What is the Pre Diet Philosophy? The pre diet philosophy is essentially getting the proper lifestyle in place before taking restrictive measures to your health. Having a preface to strategic dietary protocols that can help you sustain and experience 10x more success in the long run. (and the long run is actually insanely important!)The pre diet philosophy means that you have to “earn the right” to diet. These days, nutritionists and coaches are throwing around diets like it's candy (no pun intended) and these “pinterest diets” are wrecking the emotional and physical health of chronic dieters.Show spoiler alert: if you found diet advice on pinterest, it's not true. I promise. So what does it mean to have the proper lifestyle in place?-Focus on the quality on your food-Healthy energy levels throughout the day-Gut health-Blood sugar regulationWe talk about some of the myths of the health industry like:Quality vs Quantity- should you never focus on the amount of food you eat, just focus on eating the right foods? OR should you do just the opposite and focus only on the right amounts of food, regardless of the quality?Mindset and the human element of health- there are essential mindset shift that the personal development field has been mastering, but the health field has not tapped into. How can we merge the two?When should you be eating?Should you be eating more or less fat? Why? What are the benefits and what are the risks? (especially for female hormones!)Ali shares her thoughts and experiences with the foundational practice of digestion and let's not candy coat it: we talk about poop.You can find Ali through her resources below, thank you so much for listening!•Website: https://www.parksidenutrition.com•Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ali.parksidenutrition/•FB Page: https://www.facebook.com/parksidenutrition•Free Gut Health FB Group (with lots of files & videos posted): https://www.facebook.com/groups/872949413107882/•FREEBIE - Poop Guide: https://6dd864f9-c129-4d8e-b94a-27657b9a650c.filesusr.com/ugd/6e1cdc_ed4ef18fdfb848539781832f6dd59811.pdfAnd if you would like to become a client of mine, you can find my programs, recipes, and meal plans at:www.howtokeepyourplantson.comand on instagram at @keepyourplantson

Ralph Bloomers, from the Craig Law Center, will explain the MOU and legislation supported by 13 environmental groups and 13 industrial timber operators. It would require logging buffers on streams in the Siskiyou watersheds to be as large as our more northern watersheds. It would require larger buffers for helicopters that spray pesticides from the air. Homes and schools now get only a 60’ buffer (Washington state gives 200’). The new legislation would help protect school children and families with a 300’ buffer from aerial-sprayed herbicides next to homes and schools.For more information about Ralph's organization, see: https://crag.org/For more information about aerial spraying in Oregon, see: https://www.beyondtoxics.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/FINAL_Report_OregonIndustrialForest_and_HerbicideUse_12-17-13.pdfAnd here: https://oregonwild.org/support-regulation-aerial-herbicide-sprayingPictures of aerial spraying that I took around me are here: https://www.flickr.com/gp/umpquawild/0V4cBvEnding song is by Alice DiMicele, "Defend The Earth", from her "Searching" album.

Grassland researcher Brian McCarthy and PhD researcher Brid McClearn join Emma-Louise Coffey to discuss the benefits of white clover inclusion at Clonakilty Agricultural College.The grass plus white clover treatment grew 1.2 tonnes more grass compared with the grass only sward. Clover content varied from 36% in year 1 to 14% in year 4, which is a driver of grass production and fed quality. Cows in the grass plus white clover treatment produced 50 kg milk solids compared with grass only treatment. Brid explains this occurs due to increased intake and greater forage quality. Brian gives his management tips for managing clover in swards emphasising the importance of prevention rather than treatment. Furthermore, bloat oil during dry weather and small allocations at the start of grazing cycle to avoid gorging in wet weather. Notwithstanding increasing costs of the grass plus clover swards including feed in spring, labour associated with supplementary feeding and fencing, machinery expenses and treatment with bloat oil, there was an additional €305 with the inclusion of white clover For more information:https://www.teagasc.ie/media/website/publications/2019/Clonakilty-Update-The-effect-of-perennial-ryegrass-ploidy-and-white-clover-inclusion-on-animal,-sward-and-farm.pdfAnd for more from the Dairy Edge podcast go to: https://www.teagasc.ie/animals/dairy/the-dairy-edge-podcast/  

In this solo quick bite episode, Patti walks us through 20 questions that will help us thoughtfully reflect on the past year and help us get ready for planning the year to come. Questions about creating, consumption, and challenges (and a bunch other questions that don't start with the letter C) allow us to figure out where our priorities were, and celebrate some of the awesome things we did, while growing from the things we learned. She also offers the 20 Year End Reflection Questions in a PDFand her printable Goal Setting Workshopto accompany the Goal Setting episode and make reflection and future planning so much easier.
