In this episode, we talk with Greg Epstein—humanist chaplain at Harvard and MIT, bestselling author, and a leading voice on the intersection of technology, ethics, and belief systems. Greg's latest book, Tech Agnostic, offers a provocative argument: Silicon Valley isn't just a powerful industry—it has become the dominant religion of our time. Note: Tech Agnostic won an Artificality Book Award in 2024—check out our review here. In this interview, we explore the deep parallels between big tech and organized religion, from sacred texts and prophets to digital congregations and AI-driven eschatology. The conversation explores digital Puritanism, the "unwitting worshipers" of tech's altars, and the theological implications of AI doomerism.But this isn't just a critique—it's a call for a Reformation. Greg lays out a path toward a more humane and ethical future for technology, one that resists unchecked power and prioritizes human values over digital dogma.Join us for a thought-provoking conversation on faith, fear, and the future of being human in an age where technology defines what we believe in.Do you enjoy our conversations like this one?

February 10, 2025 edition Recorded December 16, 2024 Chloé Valdary was last on the podcast in May 2021, talking about Theory of Enchantment, an enterprise devoted to more nuanced and art-focussed approaches to DEI. She's back to discuss what she's been up to since then. A lot! In this conversation, recorded in December, Chloé talks about her journey from prolific tweeting to long-form writing and the impact of social media on mental health and creativity. She talks about psychosomatic work, the influence of Elon Musk on Twitter, and the cultural response to Luigi Mangione's killing of a health insurance executive. In her view, Luigi fandom connects to themes of Puritan heritage, as she discusses in her (then) recent piece Luigi Mangione and the Puritans. GUEST BIO Chloé Valdary, educator, artist, and founder of the Theory of Enchantment, is on a mission to address the shortcomings of DEI by teaching love and harmony. Chloé received her bachelor's in international studies with a concentration in conflict and diplomacy from the University of New Orleans. She has been published in the WSJ, the New York Times and the Atlantic Magazine, and she spends her days helping schools and businesses build trust in their organizations. In her spare time, she enjoys bird watching, reading, and DJing. Want to hear the whole conversation? Upgrade your subscription here. HOUSEKEEPING

Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/editorialtpv El día de hoy hablaremos sobre el movimiento puritano, de acuerdo capítulo 1, "Antipuritanism” por Patrick Collinson del libro The Cambridge Companion to Puritanism. Ver aquí: https://www.cambridge.org/gb/universitypress/subjects/religion/church-history/cambridge-companion-puritanism?format=HB&isbn=9780521860888 . Páginas 19–33. El programa de hoy explora el desarrollo histórico del término «puritano» y la naturaleza polifacética del sentimiento antipuritano en la Inglaterra isabelina y jacobina. Collinson sostiene que el término fue inicialmente una etiqueta peyorativa empleada tanto por opositores católicos como protestantes para describir a una diversa gama de protestantes inconformistas, y que su adopción generalizada como etiqueta definitiva se produjo relativamente tarde. El ensayo examina cómo la literatura satírica, las obras de teatro y la cultura popular de la época contribuyeron a la construcción y difusión de imágenes estereotipadas de los puritanos, tanto positivas como negativas, que a menudo se parecían poco a la realidad de la vida y las creencias puritanas. El autor subraya el poderoso papel del lenguaje y la polémica en la formación de las percepciones y la interacción dinámica entre puritanismo y antipuritanismo. Por último, Collinson subraya que los sentimientos antipuritanos se intensificaron durante periodos en los que el inconformismo puritano estaba en realidad disminuyendo, lo que indica una dimensión cultural y social más profunda del fenómeno.

Join Bob Johnston and his wife Lynn on Catholic Spirit Radio's "Being Catholic" as they dive into the intriguing parallels between historical Puritanism and today's woke culture. Broadcasting across Central and Northern Illinois, Bob and Lynn explore how modern-day "wokeism" mirrors the old Puritanical principles, with its rigid moral dichotomies and societal pressures. The episode kicks off with Lynn reflecting on the recent natural disasters affecting the southeastern United States, reminding us of the fragility of life and the importance of community support. The conversation then shifts to the relaxing joys of birdwatching, a pastime that offers a peaceful escape from the stresses of everyday life. Bob delves into a thought-provoking discussion on the cyclical nature of religious revivals in America, drawing insights from an article by Alex Pennelly. He examines how the fervor of the Great Awakening has transformed into today's cultural battles, where the new Puritans seek to reshape society according to their standards of virtue and morality. Listeners are encouraged to reflect on the enduring themes of human nature and the quest for moral perfection, as Bob and Lynn highlight the Catholic perspective on finding balance, joy, and sanity in a complex world. Tune in for an engaging exploration of history, culture, and faith on "Being Catholic" with Bob Johnston.

Therefore in all temptations let us consider not what he offers, but what we shall lose", Richard Sibbes, 1577-1635, A Puritan Golden Treasury, English theologian. He is known as a Biblical exegete, and as a representative, with William Perkins and John Preston, of what has been called "main-line" Puritanism. He attended St John's College, Cambridge from 1595. He was lecturer at Holy Trinity Church, Cambridge, from about 1610 to 1616. It is erroneously held by 18th and 19th century scholars that Sibbes was deprived of his various academic posts on account of his Puritanism. In fact he was never deprived of any of his posts, due to his ingenuity of the system. He was then preacher at Gray's Inn, London, from 1617, returning to Cambridge as Master of Catherine Hall in 1626, without giving up the London position.

Welcome to the Crazy Wisdom Podcast! I'm your host, Stewart Alsop, and today's guest is the insightful Paul Spencer of Zeitville Media. In this episode, we explore Paul's thought-provoking ideas on the Patchwork Age, a concept he developed in 2020, which examines the breakdown of large cultural institutions and the reorganization of meaning on individual and micro-tribal levels. We discuss the interplay of technology, the influence of the 90s, and the emergence of hybridized cultural forms in the 2020s. Paul also shares his perspective on the role of puritanical thought in contemporary society and its impact on community dynamics. For more from Paul Spencer, visit his newsletter at Zeitville Media or follow him on Twitter.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversation!Timestamps00:00 Introduction to the Crazy Wisdom Podcast00:23 Understanding the Patchwork Age01:18 The Big Tent and Cultural Shifts02:13 Nostalgia for the 90s04:45 Puritanism and Western Buddhism06:17 Thomas Merton's Influence13:53 Argentina and the 90s Parallel16:38 The Fragmentation of Micro Tribes20:46 Modernity and the Dark Ages22:51 The Patchwork Manifesto25:59 The Illusion of Stability28:51 The Debate and Simulacra32:54 The Rise of Local Tribes42:23 Rhizomatic Thinking and Cultural Flux45:51 Exploring Rhizomatic Thinking47:16 Capitalism and Schizophrenic Consciousness50:43 AI and the Future of Relationships59:54 The Patchwork Age Philosophy01:06:52 Navigating Individualism in Modern Society01:25:01 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsKey InsightsThe Patchwork Age Concept: Paul Spencer introduces the Patchwork Age, a framework he developed in 2020 to describe the breakdown of large cultural institutions and the emergence of meaning-making on individual and micro-tribal levels. This concept was inspired by his observations of societal changes during the early pandemic and highlights the need for people to stitch together various cultural elements to find personal significance.Impact of the 90s: Both Paul and Stewart reflect on the influence of the 90s, a time they describe as the "big tent" era, where cultural synchronization was more prevalent. They discuss how the transition from this cohesive period to the fragmented present has affected millennials, who grew up with certain expectations of continuity and stability that have since been disrupted.Role of Technology: The conversation underscores the critical role technology plays in the Patchwork Age. Paul points out that technology has accelerated the fragmentation of cultural institutions and facilitated the creation of micro-tribes, while also providing tools for these smaller groups to connect and find meaning.Puritanical Thought in Modern Society: Paul delves into the resurgence of puritanical thought in contemporary culture. He explains that in the absence of a unifying big tent, many people and communities turn to strict, puritanical codes to create a sense of order and certainty, often resulting in exclusionary or cult-like behavior.Cultural Hybridization: The discussion explores how the 2020s are marked by the hybridization of cultural forms. Paul and Stewart note that the blending of genres, ideas, and traditions—partly a result of the digital and analog worlds colliding in the 90s—continues to shape the way people create and interact in today's fragmented cultural landscape.Challenges of Micro-Tribalism: The shift from large, cohesive cultural institutions to smaller, fragmented micro-tribes presents unique challenges. Paul discusses how these micro-tribes often face internal fractionation, leading to further fragmentation and instability. He emphasizes the need for individuals to navigate this complexity creatively to find stability and meaning.Future of AI and Synthetic Relationships: The episode touches on the future of AI and its potential to create synthetic relationships. Paul predicts that as AI technology advances, people will form relationships with AI entities, which could lead to complex ethical and philosophical questions about consciousness, embodiment, and the nature of human connections in an increasingly digital world.

Today, Fr. Zechariah Lynch returns to the show to discuss some themes in one of his recent blog posts entitled, "We Found Witches! The Inquisition of Control over Human Freedom" over at his . America was founded by Puritans. That Puritan spirit has remained a guiding spirit of American culture and society even today. In the early years, many Christian Puritans were looking for witches to burn at the stake. This is still happening today. What is different in modern times is, while we have lost the spirit of Christianity, broadly speaking, Puritanism is still there, only now fueled by a secular religion. If you don't offer up the pinch of incense to many of these types, YOU will become the witch that they want to burn at the stake.

A big part of the discussion around mental health, wellness, and self-care is not to overlook the factors that may have contributed to some form of religious trauma in your life. If you are someone who has a religious background and might be deconstructing from a religion (Christianity, in particular), today's conversation will help you navigate that journey. I'm joined by Rev. Lizzie, an Episcopal priest who is based in Austin, Texas, where she is the founding planter of Jubilee Episcopal Church. There is something inspiring and comforting in this conversation for everyone, no matter your relationship with religion. Join us!   Show Highlights:  ●      Shocker: “Cleanliness is next to godliness” is not in the Bible, so you are not morally sinful if your sink is full of dirty dishes. ●      Why Christianity can be comforting to us in our feelings of brokenness and unworthiness ●      Where the phrase about cleanliness and godliness originated–as a way to teach that our “inside” is a more important focus than our outward appearance ●      The danger of misunderstanding “God commands” and “God cares” ●      Why much of what people “think” is Christianity is a misunderstanding of God's grace and love for our souls ●      Why the vastness of God cannot be contained solely within the bounds of scripture ●      How we each have a “canon within a canon” of the scriptures that we hold the most sacred and important ●      What Rev. Lizzie wants us to understand about the word “jubilee” and what it means about freedom, justice, and joy   Resources and Links: Connect with Rev.

Chapter 1 Dissect the inner meaning of the book Albion's Seed"Albion's Seed: Four British Folkways in America" is a book written by David Hackett Fischer. Published in 1989, the book explores the different folkways (customs, beliefs, and cultural practices) brought to America by four distinct groups of British migrants in the 17th and 18th centuries. These groups include the Puritans from East Anglia, the Cavaliers from southern England, the Quakers from the North Midlands, and the Borderers from the border between England and Scotland.Fischer argues that these four groups of migrants played a significant role in shaping the cultural, social, and political landscape of America. The book examines various aspects of their lives, including their religious beliefs, family structures, agricultural practices, legal systems, and dialects. Fischer also delves into the influence of these folkways on key historical events, such as the American Revolution and the Civil War.Through extensive research and rich detail, "Albion's Seed" provides a comprehensive analysis of how the diverse British traditions that these groups brought with them contributed to the regional identities that continue to shape America today.Chapter 2 Does the book Albion's Seed A Good Book deserve a Read?Opinions on books can vary greatly depending on individual tastes and interests. "Albion's Seed" by David Hackett Fischer is generally well-regarded by scholars and readers interested in American history and cultural studies. The book explores the lasting impact of four British regional cultures in shaping the United States, focusing on the regions of New England, the Midlands, the North, and the South. If you are interested in this subject matter, it is likely that "Albion's Seed" will be an informative and interesting read for you. However, it is always a good idea to read reviews and summaries of the book to determine if its content aligns with your specific interests and expectations.Chapter 3 Synopsis of the book Albion's Seed"Albion's Seed: Four British Folkways in America" by David Hackett Fischer is a seminal work that explores the cultural roots of four major American regions and the impact of British immigration on shaping their distinct identities. Published in 1989, the book examines the history and traditions brought by the English, Scots-Irish, Welsh, and Germanic settlers, who laid the foundations for the American colonies and later influenced the development of American culture.Fischer argues that these regional cultures, or "folkways," were deeply embedded in the early settlers' social, religious, political, and economic practices. Each group brought its own unique set of customs, religious beliefs, social structures, and political ideologies, which shaped the character of the colonies they settled.The English group, originating from various regions of England, established dominant settlements in New England, Virginia, and the Mid-Atlantic. Their values, grounded in Puritanism and Anglicanism, emphasized communal obligations, hierarchical social structures, and a sense of duty towards the common good. This English heritage laid the groundwork for American ideals of individual rights and representative democracy.The Scots-Irish, hailing from the borders of Scotland and England, settled primarily in the Appalachian region. Known for their fierce independence, martial spirit, and Presbyterian religious traditions, they brought their distinctive kinship ties and a sense of rugged individualism to America. Their cultural practices influenced later American notions of personal freedom and...

My guest this week is Father John Whiteford. Fr. John is Archpriest and pastor at St. Jonah Orthodox Church in Spring, Texas. He is also the dean of the southern deanery (Texas and Louisiana) of the Diocese of Chicago and Mid-America ROCOR. Today, we are discussing some themes from a talk he gave at the Ludwig Orthodox Fellowship Inaugural Conference recently. It deals with his realization that once he became an Orthodox Christian, he could no longer support the neoconservative pro-war foreign policy philosophy. We get into the multiple wars that the US has participated in and the eradication of Christians in various parts of the world due to the actions of the US military. This leads us into a discussion on the Yankee mentality and the Southern mentality. The Puritanism of the Yankees has unfortunately won out when it comes to wars and democracy, and that has led to some very bad results. Fr. John feels as though Orthodox Christianity is suited for the agrarian southern heart and mind. We also get into a subject that Fr. John has written and spoken on many times over the decades, and that is Sola Scriptura. This is a wonderful discussion, and I think you'll learn a lot. For Fr. John's speech at the Ludwell Orthodox Fellowship, click here:   Here is Fr.
