In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron explore the recent DC embassy shooting through a Christian theological lens. Why do people scapegoat others? What drives individuals to violent action in the name of causes they don't directly represent? Drawing on René Girard's scapegoat theory, biblical concepts of atonement, and the moral confusion of modern culture, they analyze how this tragedy reveals the deep brokenness in human nature and our desperate attempts at meaning-making. With thoughtful insight and pastoral clarity, Nathan and Cameron reflect on individualism, ideological identity, and the limits of symbolic action. This conversation is essential for Christians seeking a thoughtful and faithful response to complex cultural events.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.

When womanhood is reduced to a capitalist identity, who gets erased—and who gets empowered to do the erasing? In the final episode of Gender War Games, host Cristen Conger joins Material Girls co-hosts Hannah McGregor and Marcelle Kosman to unpack how white womanhood is activated—politically, culturally, algorithmically—to reinforce systems of power. From tradwife aesthetics to terf rhetoric, strategic essentialism to state violence, discover how white femininity gets mobilized as both soft power and backlash engine in the so-called gender wars.

In this reflection I process a literal and figurative battle I have had with housing. Supporting themes: Self-actualization; Systems theory; Scapegoating; Genius, greatness and impact. Typology: INTJ8

Scapegoating has become Australia's unofficial national sport — and nowhere is this more obvious than in the commentary surrounding our housing crisis. In this episode, we take a deep dive into the latest wave of finger-pointing, where so-called NIMBYs (Not In My Back Yard) and Baby Boomers are being blamed for everything from unaffordable housing to stalled development. But is the narrative that older Australians are refusing to downsize or that local residents are blocking new homes actually backed by evidence? Or is it a convenient distraction from deeper, more uncomfortable truths? Tune in as we cut through the noise, challenge the conventional media narrative, and call for a more honest, evidence-based conversation about housing supply, planning, and political accountability. Key topics covered: The myth of downsizing as a supply solution How NIMBY scapegoating distracts from systemic problems Why development isn't happening in many suburbs — and it's not because of residents The true barriers to building new homes in Australia What needs to change for real housing reform to happen If you're tired of the blame game and ready for a more informed look at the housing crisis, this episode is for you.

In Mike's Message today he is continuing to share on 'Heart Health' as found in Proverbs 4:23, "Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it." And in this message focuses on envy & desire. "You don't rid envy by trying harder- you heal by bringing it into the light and yielding to the spirit." Mimetic Process- 1. Imitation (I want what they want) 2. Rivalry (competition) 3. Conflict (tearing each other down) 4. Scapegoating ( blame someone else) 5.

We are breaking the silence to discuss what it means to be a truth-seeker in a family of secret-keepers. Let's take a deeper look at the impact of generational trauma, the emotional weight of family dysfunction, and the courage it takes to become a cycle breaker.We talk about how silence & secrecy are often survival strategies passed down through generations and how confronting those patterns can feel isolating, painful, and necessary. If you've ever felt like the black sheep, the emotional translator, or the one who sees what others pretend not to, this episode is for you.

Jonny and Heather discuss Heather's new novel, Goodbye Hello, an unconventional romance that begins with grief at a funeral. In the back half of the show, they examine new turns in the anti-trans rhetoric of TERFs and transphobes, turns meant to be rebuttals to arguments for trans righs. They offer rebuttals to the rebuttals and note the pervasive function of caricature as a tool of scapegoating embedded in all the antitrans rhetoric.

In this episode of the Proclaim Peace Podcast, hosts Jennifer Thomas and Patrick Mason are joined by Bellweather International founder Rachel Miner to tackle the difficult and sobering topic of genocide. They emphasize the importance of peace builders acknowledging and confronting the realities of evil and suffering in the world. Jennifer highlights that a key trait of peace builders is the ability to mourn and lament for those affected by atrocities. The discussion also connects to the Book of Mormon, which addresses the theme of genocide, particularly in its concluding narratives.

Migration expert Alan Gamlen joins Democracy Sausage to unpack the arguments and misconceptions around immigration. What is it about immigration that makes voters so anxious? What are the misconceptions we have about migration? And with Peter Dutton mulling over a referendum to give ministers the power the ability to strip dual nationals of citizenship will migration be a key issue in the upcoming election?

Alan Gamlen is the Director of the Migration Hub at the ANU School of Regulation and Global Governance. Mark Kenny is the Director of the ANU Australian Studies Institute. He came to the University after a high-profile journalistic career including six years as chief political correspondent and national affairs editor for The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age and The Canberra Times.

The term scapegoat comes from the Ancient Israelite practice on the Day of Atonement. The priest confessed the wrong doings of the people over the head of the goat and the goat carried that guilt far away from the people. Rene Girard observed that all cultures have participated in scapegoating. Jesus was a scapegoat and his death and resurrection revealed the mechanism.

In this episode, Adam and Nina kick off with the latest headlines, including Ukraine's ceasefire deal in exchange for renewed US military and intelligence aid, plus a NATO military chiefs' meeting in Paris. They also break down what's happening in Romania, the online clash between Poland's Foreign Minister and Elon Musk, and wrap up with updates from Azerbaijan. Later, Alexandra and Nina chat with Zuzana Pavlíčková, a human rights lawyer and Fulbright Scholar under the Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship at the American University Washington College of Law. Zuzana dives into the crucial role civil society has played in the region—and why governments see it as a threat today. They take a step back to unpack what civil society actually is before getting into foreign agent laws and why they're so controversial. In the bonus content, Zuzana takes a closer look at foreign agent laws in Bulgaria, Georgia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Hungary, Slovakia, and Russia—exploring what they have in common and where they differ.

Hello, I'd really like to grow this email list. If you enjoy this newsletter, it would mean the world to Jola and I if you encouraged one friend/fellow immigrant/colleague to subscribe…Very likely, the the only thing you will get in return is warm fuzzy feelings, and if I can attribute it to you, I'd personally send you a thank you email.Join us as we explore the bitter-sweet world of the immigrant.In this episode, I'm speaking with Bryan Caplan, Professor of Economics at George Mason University and New York Times bestselling author. He's the author of Open Borders, one of the best books on immigration in my opinion, The Myth of the Rational Voter, named "the best political book of the year" by the New York Times, and Build, Baby, Build.It is human nature to find someone or something else to blame for our problems. And it's been a well-played hand in the Canadian immigration debate in the past ten months or more.But as Bryan says, 'Shouldn't we be focused on addressing the real problems? If we have a housing problem, focus on deregulating the housing sector and build more housing. If the problem is crime, then improve law enforcement rather than blame the newcomers.'In this conversation, Bryan and I chat about the economic gains from immigration. We also explored:* Scapegoating versus tackling the real problems* Lessons from the Gulf Monarchies approach to immigration* The Canadian immigration conversation* Why Open Borders is back in print, and a lot of other good stuff.

Donate to the critical aid campaign at http://btml.us/thinkingmuslimAt the time of recording, the German election results have just been announced, revealing an extraordinary outcome for the far-right AFD party, which came second in the Bundestag (parliamentary) elections with 20% of the popular vote, primarily from the country's East but also among some younger voters in the West. The opposition CDU party, led by Friedrich Merz, is on track for victory but will need to negotiate with either its traditional adversaries, the SDP, led by former Chancellor Scholz, or the minority parties. The AFD openly calls for the repatriation of ‘non-Germans,' wherein ‘German' is defined through a cultural and racial lens. Elon Musk has expressed support for the AFD, having spoken at one of its rallies. The party is avowedly anti-Islam and aims for a Germany free of Muslims. So, how do Muslims in Germany respond to these unprecedented and potentially challenging times ahead? We are pleased to have Marcel Krass with us today. Marcel Krass converted to Islam in 1995 at the age of 18. Since 2007, he has been active in German Dawah and, alhamdulillah, is well known throughout the country. His specialty is Quranic Arabic, which he studied and now teaches at his institute, Deen Akademie, founded in 2020. Since 2018, he has been the spokesman for the Muslim civil rights organisation, Federal Islamic Union.For the past 16 months, we all know how difficult it has been for food and essential supplies to reach the beleaguered people of Gaza. This, Insha'Allah, is changing. We have partnered with a charity, Baitulmaal, because now, more than ever, there is a need not only in Gaza but also in Turkish controlled Northern Syria and in all the places we routinely talk about in this program where our ummah is subject to abject poverty. We have chosen this charity because Baitulmaal is a non-profit with people on the ground who organize well-thought-out projects and serve the most needy.To donate to their Critical Aid campaign, please visit the link on our screen now and in the description.

Do you feel like a scapegoat for others, or are you scapegoating others? We have to not put the blame on others for our sins, problems or whatever. Repent and turn to God he will forgive you for it all!

Families and churches are swept through with anxiety, and they get split, shredded. If we don't see it everywhere we feel the power of anxiety everywhere. Why does anxiety disassemble entire communities? Why is it that the entire community gets pulled down to the level of its least mature members? In this first episode in a new series we talk about the mechanisms that force anxiety down everyone's throats. Why has our country been pulled down into a Peter Pan syndrome? Why is it that company workers are not allowed to name the big Pink Elephant everyone knows is in the room? Why does anxiety seek a "shoot the messenger" strategy? And why oh why is it that when we all gather to help anxious persons it only seems to reinforce, in their minds, that they are after all the most oppressed? In the episode's opening segment I work through the recent curtain-pulls regarding Church culture and the effects of USAID money. How and why have churches worked against their own members' best interests? What happened to the Roman Catholic church that caused it to turn to the government for billions of dollars? The camel has its nose in the tent, let's see what that smells like.

Wicked is a wickedly relevant social commentary! Allow Catholic philosopher Rene Girard to explain the phenomena of mimetic desire and scapegoating in us all. Be prepared to be challenged!  Excerpt:  "In Wicked, another moment this mimetic desire is particularly on display is in the ballroom scene. Again, when Glinda mocked Elphaba's outrageous hat, everyone else mocked Elphaba, because everyone just wanted what Glinda wanted. But then Glinda suddenly has a change in her conscience and begins to feels sorry for Elphaba. She boldly steps out and reaches out to Elphaba on the dance floor, and begins to imitate her awkward dance moves. In that moment, Glinda herself wanted to imitate the courage of Elphaba, and Elphaba became the object of Glinda's mimesis. And then of course, suddenly everyone else changes their attitude towards Elphaba, not because they like her, but because now Glinda now likes her, and just like that, Elphaba's awkward, undesirable dancing style becomes desirable. Everyone is imitating everyone… except Elphaba, who is probably the most authentic character in the entire story!"   Links:Bishop Barron on Rene GirardJonathan Bi - Introduction to Mimetic Theory

Magic and witchcraft are integral aspects of the human nature. Cultural beliefs are rooted in human cognition and psychology and shape our social behaviors.

Many critical thinkers have rightfully wondered why gender dysphoria is treated in clinical settings any differently from anorexia, body integrity identity disorder, and other psychiatric ailments featuring a mind-body problem. Today's guest is the right person to answer that question.Jaco van Zyl, a South Africa-trained clinical psychologist now practicing in Ireland, joins me to discuss his paper, "Formulating Gender Dysphoria as an Affective-Perceptual Disturbance Involving the Body," which was recently published in the journal Psychodynamic Practice. Jaco shares his insights on the psychological underpinnings of gender dysphoria, particularly in adolescents, and critiques the current activist-driven narratives that often overshadow psychodynamic perspectives.We explore the developmental journey of infants and how early experiences shape their understanding of identity and bodily sensations. Jaco emphasizes the importance of navigating the pleasure and reality principles, a concept rooted in psychoanalytic theory, and how failures in this process can lead to arrested development. We also discuss the implications of ideologies that discourage critical thinking about gender identity, highlighting the dangers of treating distress as a literal interpretation of one's body.Throughout our conversation, we aim to unpack the complexities of gender dysphoria, the role of early attachment experiences, and the potential consequences of affirming practices that may overlook deeper psychological issues. This episode invites listeners to consider the intersection of psychoanalysis, gender identity, and the importance of fostering a more nuanced understanding of these critical topics.Jaco van Zyl is a South Africa-trained Clinical Psychologist in private practice in Ireland. He has worked in the Department of Correctional Services, and in private practice at a psychiatric hospital in South Africa. Jaco has a special interest in personality pathology and its relationship with mood and anxiety disorders, trauma-spectrum disorders, gender-related distress, eating disorders and addiction. He is also interested in the psychology of large-groups, gleaning from his own experience growing up in South Africa, and the role ideology plays in mass illusion in political and ideological movements.

He expresses a neutral perspective, acknowledging their connections to key figures on both sides of the debate. Tim discusses their skepticism towards Christian nationalism, critiques the political philosophy behind the declaration, and emphasizes the importance of judgment and charity in discourse. He also reflects on the historical context and the implications of reactionary tendencies within the church. In this episode, Tim navigates complex historical and theological discussions surrounding Hitler's ideologies, the Holocaust, and the implications of antisemitism. The conversation delves into the challenges of affirming historical claims, the role of scapegoating in cultural decay, and the nuances of ethnic identity and sinfulness. Tim expresses uncertainty about various statements regarding Jewish influence and conspiracies, ultimately advocating for a more scripturally centered approach to these discussions. Takeaways Viewer discretion is advised for sensitive audiences. Salvation is found in Christ alone, rejecting any alternatives. The speaker feels unable to sign the Antioch Declaration. There is sympathy towards the Christian nationalist project, but skepticism remains. Affirmation of key figures in the Christian community is important. The idea of 'no enemies to the right' is questioned as a biblical strategy. Judgment and charity should guide discourse within the church. Historical context is crucial for understanding current debates. Reactionary tendencies can be problematic and unhelpful. The speaker expresses uncertainty about the implications of the declaration. Hitler's ideologies contain elements that are worth examining critically. The Holocaust is a complex historical event that requires careful study. Ignorance about historical claims can lead to confusion in discussions. Judgment of motives can complicate conversations about repentance and self-loathing. Inconsistencies in historical narratives can hinder productive dialogue. Scapegoating is a dangerous practice that can lead to cultural decay. Rejecting antisemitism does not mean ignoring historical accountability. Ethnic identity can be a sensitive topic in discussions of sinfulness. Conspiracies can exist, but asserting them requires caution and evidence. The church should focus on scriptural truths rather than identity politics.

In this episode, explore the infamous reign of Emperor Nero and the first official Roman persecution of Christians, and how the Great Fire of Rome in 64 AD became a catalyst for violence against early believers. Episode Overview Nero's rise to power and initial "Five Good Years" The Great Fire of Rome in 64 AD and its devastating impact Nero's response to the fire and ambitious reconstruction efforts Scapegoating of Christians and the ensuing persecution Methods of execution and torture used against Christians Notable martyrs, including Peter and Paul Discussion Questions How does the early Christians' response to persecution challenge or inspire your faith today? In what ways might we face "persecution" for our beliefs in modern society? How can we prepare ourselves to stand firm in our faith? Discuss the statement: "The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the Church." How did persecution ultimately strengthen the early Christian movement? How can we balance being good citizens while remaining true to our Christian convictions, especially when they conflict with societal norms or government policies? What can we learn from the example of Peter and Paul in facing death for their faith? How can we cultivate that level of commitment in our own lives?

What is the difference between scapegoating someone and holding someone accountable? How can we tell the difference? These are important questions during these times as scapegoating abounds in our culture. Is it possible to hold people accountable without scapegoating them? Check out this episode as we explore these questions with Lyle Enright.

Jonathan Howard and Wendy Orent trace the evolution of COVID-19 discourse from the early calls for open scientific debate to the current atmosphere of hostility and revenge.    They examine the shift in tone from figures like Vinay Prasad, who initially warned against demonizing heterodox views, to now using inflammatory language that fuels public outrage against scientists and public health officials. The discussion highlights the rise of dangerous populist narratives that threaten the integrity of the public health system, with explicit calls for purges, prosecutions, and dismantling of vaccine mandates.    Drawing historical comparisons to Soviet pseudoscience, Howard and Orent emphasize the alarming potential for misuse of political power against scientists, underscoring the risk to future pandemic responses and public trust in vaccines. The episode ends with Howard's anticipation of his upcoming debate against Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, where he plans to use the very words of the Great Barrington Declaration proponents to expose their inconsistencies.

I have been highly influenced by mimetic theory to understand how the Bible reveals the nonviolence of God and the human tendency to scapegoat. Tragically, major politicians have started using mimetic theory as a tool for doing precisely what mimetic theory warns us not to do - scapegoat others. In this episode to begin season 5, I talk about reclaiming Christianity and mimetic theory. I hope you enjoy it!

In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, David shares his traumatic story of being abused by his narcissistic family & sexually abused by a child predator who groomed him online. At first, David was the golden child and enmeshed with his mother. However, once David's mother remarried, David became a thorn in his step-father's side. In response, David became the scapegoat for the entire family. And as David got older, he was starved for any validation he could get, which led him into the hands of a child predator.  It's a story of being good enough, parental alienation, child sexual abuse, physical abuse, sex trafficking, suicide attempts, trauma, emotional abuse, gaslighting, put downs, body autonomy, body issues, eating disorders, healing, & cptsd. *** CONTENT WARNING - This episode discusses child sexual abuse, physical abuse, child sex trafficking, suicide attempts. *** If you want to be a guest on our survivor story podcast, please click here or send us an email at narcissistapocalypse@gmail.com To help out our podcast, please fill out our listener survey, click here.

If we read Jesus's life well, we should be able to recognize where and how our societies continue to produce scapegoats; then, we can stop the cycle of violence and blame because we know the truth. Speaker: Jennifer Bradshaw

This week on Upstream, we're releasing a 2019 interview with David Gornoski and Erik Torenberg on the Village Global podcast, offering a deep dive into René Girard's Mimetic Theory, exploring its far-reaching societal impacts and surprising connections to ancient rituals and myths. They unpack the concept of mimetic desire and the profound influence of Christianity on society, exploring how the anthropological impact of Jesus could transform personal and socio-political conflicts. David also provides a unique perspective on the evolution of ancient sacrifices and mythologies, juxtaposing them with modern societal issues.

In this episode, our guest talks about the financial abuse she endured in a lengthy marriage with children. No matter how many failures or the depth of the failures, covert narcissists will always find someone or something to blame. Scapegoating accompanies the financial abuse, as they blame you for their financial struggles. They simply cannot carry any of the blame themselves. It is never a shared responsibility. You, their supply at one point in time, are often the main target of their scapegoating and the main victim of their financial abuse.   #Parenting #covertnarcissism #abuse #gaslighting #narcissism #covertnarcissist 

Sometimes one person in a family becomes the "black sheep" and gets blamed for the faults, wrongdoings, and mistakes of others-especially for reasons of expediency. This person is considered the "scapegoat" for the family's issues. It results in an avoidance of accountability and projection of blame onto others. This episode unpacks these family system dynamics and what to do about them, whether or not you are the identified "scapegoat."
