Podcasts about Scientism

Matthew David Segall, PhD, is an Associate Professor in the Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness Department at California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco, and the Chair of the Science Advisory Committee for the Cobb Institute. He is a transdisciplinary researcher, writer, teacher, and philosopher applying process-relational thought across the natural and social sciences, as well as to the study of consciousness. He describes himself as a “process philosopher” and transdisciplinary researcher, reflecting his commitment to bridging multiple fields​. Segall's work builds on the metaphysical framework of Alfred North Whitehead, extending Whitehead's philosophy of organism into new domains of science, religion, and ecology. In doing so, Segall reinterprets the Western philosophical lineage – from ancient ideas of a world-soul to German Idealism and beyond – to articulate a participatory, organismic vision of nature. His philosophy portrays a cosmos ensouled with meaning and experience, challenging mechanistic materialism and inviting a renewed dialogue between science and spirit​. Segall integrates insights from Whitehead, Schelling, Goethe, and Steiner into a process worldview, develops an organic (panpsychist) cosmology, practices a bold transdisciplinary methodology, and engages public dialogues that embody a form of sacred activism on behalf of our living planet.TIMESTAMPS:(0:00) - Introduction (0:43) - History of Mind-Body Problem(7:40) - Critiquing Physicalism(12:55) - Quantum Theory Interpretations(16:14) - Addressing Illusionism & Scientism(22:00) - The Metaphysics of Prehension(28:14) - Panexperientialism in Physics(31:55) - Propositional Feelings(37:09) - What is Consciousness?(45:00) - Panexperientialism & Free Will(50:00) - Bridging Science & Philosophy(54:42) - Challenging the Cold/Dead Universe tale(1:00:39) - Misconceptions about Matt's work(1:04:20) - Telos(1:07:44) - Matt's Philosopher recommendations(1:13:00) - Mind At Large (Upcoming Events!)(1:17:40) - Conclusion EPISODE LINKS:- Matt's Website: https://footnotes2plato.com-  @Footnotes2Plato : http://www.youtube.com/@Footnotes2Plato- Physics Within the Bounds of Feeling Alone: https://footnotes2plato.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/physics-within-the-bounds-of-feeling-alone.pdf- Matt's X: https://x.com/ThouArtThat- Matt's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/matthew.david.segall- Matt's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthewdavidsegall- Matt's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/footnotes2platoCONNECT:- Website: https://tevinnaidu.com - Podcast: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mindbodysolution- YouTube: https://youtube.com/mindbodysolution- Twitter: https://twitter.com/drtevinnaidu- Facebook: https://facebook.com/drtevinnaidu - Instagram: https://instagram.com/drtevinnaidu- LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/drtevinnaidu=============================Disclaimer: The information provided on this channel is for educational purposes only.

In today's episode we dissect the present day situation of a decades old plan and philosophy which seeks to undermine and control the the entirety of our global systems and populations.  What is this insidious plan and the philosophy behind it?  Technocracy.Joining us today is the well known author Patrick Wood.  Mr Wood is a leading and critical expert on Technocracy and its myriad of facets - Sustainable Development, the Green Economy, Agenda 21, Agenda 2030, and the historic origins of this movement.An economist by education, a financial analyst and writer by profession and an American Constitutionalist by choice, Mr. Wood maintains a Biblical world view and has deep historical insights into the modern attacks on sovereignty, property rights and personal freedom.Mr Wood is a leading expert on the elitist Trilateral Commission, their policies and achievements in creating their self-proclaimed “New International Economic Order” which is the essence of Sustainable Development on a global scale.He is the author of several very interesting an informative books including most recently, “The Evil Twins of Technocracy and Transhumanism”, “Technocracy: The Hard Road to World Order”,  and “Technocracy Rising: The Trojan Horse of Global Transformation”.  He is also the co-author of “Trilaterals Over Washington”, Volumes I and II with the late Antony C. Sutton.Wood is a frequent speaker and guest on podcasts and radio shows around the nation. His current research builds on Trilateral Commission hegemony, focusing on Technocracy, Transhumanism, Scientism, AI and how these are transforming global economics, politics and religion.For those of you who may have missed Patrick's first appearance on the show, please make sure you take some time to listen to Episode #64.  That is a critical episode to fully understand and appreciate what humanity is up against.To learn more about Patrick Wood's work please visit:https://www.technocracy.news/Elon Musk's address to the World Governments Summit:https://www.technocracy.news/musk-war-against-bureaucracy-and-the-government/This is the Omniwar Symposium video mentioned in the episode:https://dhughes.substack.com/p/omniwar-symposium-september-21-2024

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop speaks with Dimetri Kofinas, host of Hidden Forces, about the transition from an "age of answers" to an "age of questions." They explore the implications of AI and large language models on human cognition, the role of narrative in shaping society, and the destabilizing effects of trauma on belief systems. The conversation touches on media manipulation, the intersection of technology and consciousness, and the existential dilemmas posed by transhumanism.

Dimetri Kofinas and Stewart Alsop discuss how society is moving away from a model where authority figures and institutions provide definitive answers and toward one where individuals must critically engage with uncertainty. This transition is both exciting and destabilizing, as it forces us to rethink long-held assumptions and develop new ways of making sense of the world.AI is revealing the limits of human uniqueness. Large language models (LLMs) can replicate much of what we consider intellectual labor, from conversation to knowledge retrieval, forcing us to ask: What remains distinctly human? The discussion suggests that while AI can mimic thought patterns and compress vast amounts of information, it lacks the capacity for true embodied experience, creative insight, and personal revelation—qualities that define human consciousness.Narrative control is a fundamental mechanism of power. Whether through media, social networks, or propaganda, the ability to shape narratives determines what people believe to be true. The conversation highlights how past and present authorities—from Edward Bernays' early propaganda techniques to modern AI-driven social media algorithms—have leveraged this power to direct public perception and behavior, often with unforeseen consequences.Trauma is a tool for reshaping belief systems. Societal upheavals, such as 9/11, the 2008 financial crisis, and COVID-19, create psychological fractures that leave people vulnerable to radical shifts in worldview. In moments of crisis, individuals seek order, making them more susceptible to new ideologies—whether grounded in reality or driven by manipulation. This dynamic plays a key role in how misinformation and conspiracy theories gain traction.The free market alone cannot regulate the modern information ecosystem. While libertarian ideals advocate for minimal intervention, Kofinas argues that the chaotic nature of unregulated information systems—especially social media—leads to dangerous feedback loops that amplify division and disinformation. He suggests that democratic institutions must play a role in establishing transparency and oversight to prevent unchecked algorithmic manipulation.Transhumanism is both a technological pursuit and a philosophical problem. The belief that human consciousness can be uploaded or replicated through technology is based on a materialist assumption that denies the deeper mystery of subjective experience. The discussion critiques the arrogance of those who claim we can fully map and transfer human identity onto machines, highlighting the philosophical and ethical dilemmas this raises.The struggle between centralization and decentralization is accelerating. The digital age is simultaneously fragmenting traditional institutions while creating new centers of power. AI, geopolitics, and financial systems are all being reshaped by this tension. The conversation explores how Argentina's libertarian experiment under Javier Milei exemplifies this dynamic, raising questions about whether decentralization can work without strong institutional foundations or whether chaos inevitably leads back to authoritarianism.

In this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, I, Stewart Alsop, sit down with Louis Anderson, a fascinating thinker whose journey spans biotech hacking, life in San Francisco's hippie communes, and deep involvement in the Urbit ecosystem. Our conversation weaves through topics like secularism, pseudo-religious structures in modern tech communities, the philosophical underpinnings of Protestantism and its influence on secular thought, and the complex relationship between climate change, transhumanism, and personal sovereignty. We also explore Louis's vision for network states and the future of personal servers.

He contrasts American secularism, which allows for individual interpretation and freedom, with French secularism, which often imposes strict boundaries between religion and the public sphere. This perspective invites a reevaluation of how secularism shapes modern identity and cultural structures.The Influence of Protestant Thought on Modern Ideologies: The conversation highlights how Protestantism, with its emphasis on personal interpretation and decentralized authority, has deeply influenced secular and scientific worldviews. Unlike Catholicism's institutional hierarchy, Protestantism fosters an environment where individuals are encouraged to seek truth independently, a mindset that parallels the scientific method and modern democratic ideals.The Network State as a New Political Frontier: Louis introduces the concept of the network state, likening it to America's founding principles where communities form around shared ideas rather than geography. He critiques the current structure of Urbit's Azimuth system, arguing for a more community-driven model that reflects collective ownership and governance rather than capitalist hierarchies.Body Modification and the Ethics of Transhumanism: Discussing transhumanism, Louis proposes a radical shift in how we perceive body modification—not as a rejection of our natural form but as a collaborative evolution with our physical selves. He emphasizes a respectful, co-creative relationship with the body, contrasting it with the often utilitarian, enhancement-focused approach seen in current transhumanist discourse.Climate Change as Both a Scientific and Personal Challenge: The episode explores climate change beyond its scientific basis, framing it as a challenge to human adaptability and foresight. Louis suggests that individual bets and prediction markets can help people internalize climate risks, making the abstract threat more tangible and prompting proactive decision-making in areas like real estate and resource management.Mysticism's Enduring Influence on Modern Thought: Louis's deep dive into mysticism, from Kabbalah to Theosophy, reveals how ancient spiritual traditions continue to shape contemporary philosophical and cultural landscapes. He connects these esoteric systems to modern tech ideologies, suggesting that the search for meaning and structure persists even in highly rational, secular environments.The Intersection of Technology, Spirituality, and Identity: The episode underscores a recurring theme: the blending of technological advancement with spiritual exploration. Whether discussing personal servers as digital shrines or the metaphysical implications of network states, Louis highlights how technology is not just a tool but a medium through which modern humans negotiate identity, community, and existential purpose.

This is part 3 of “Are We Under Attack” where I ask Chat GPT how an evil organization aka the ruling class would go about controlling a population without anyone knowing. Now truth be told I wasn't necessarily planning on doing another episode on this topic but then I listened to an absolutely mind-blowing podcast called The Telepathy Tapes and I got pulled back into the game. So in this episode I go into the ideology of materialism and scientism and how they have been used to deliberately hold us back from knowing the truth about who we are, where we live and what we are capable ofIf you enjoy the show you can buy me a cup of coffee (send a tip): VenmoField Guide 9 - WebsiteGet Pine Pollen, Tallow and a NEW HAT - Online StoreSignup for newsletter: Send email to: ayahumero@deeperyougo.com with subject line "I Want In"Podcast gear available at: https://deeper-you-go-the-weirder-it.myspreadshop.com/Feel free to reach out with questions: ayahumero@deeperyougo.comDeeper you go Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/deeper_weirder/Book: The Self-Sabotage Guide: 9 Behaviors Preventing You from Becoming Stronger, Faster, And SexierThank you all for supporting the show!

You have probably seen the picture of Earth taken by the Voyager I satellite on Valentine's Day in 1990. It looks like nothing more than a little pixel, just a tiny point of light hanging in a beam of sunlight, like a mote of dust. Long before NASA presented this iconic image to the public, however, the late Medieval poet Dante had imagined the Earth would appear as a mere point of light in comparison to the rest of the cosmos. Many Medieval thinkers had gifted and extraordinary insights into the nature of reality, many of which laid the foundation for modern science in the West. Contrary to popular belief, the Medieval Era was a fruitful time of innovation and invention. This week, we continue to dispel some modern misconception about Medievals with author and historian James Hannam. James Hannam is a historian of the relationship between religion and science in the United Kingdom. He is the author of God's Philosophers - How the Medieval World Laid the Foundations of Modern Science (published in the US as The Genesis of Science: How the Christian Middle Ages Launched the Scientific Revolution) and The Globe: How the Earth Became Round. James is also a full-time tax consultant.

You have likely heard the term "the Dark Ages" to describe the period of history from about 450 A.D. to 1450 A.D. And you have likely heard a historian or science popularizer or two suggest that it was primarily the Christian Church of the time which was the root cause of suppressing true scientific knowledge of the physical cosmos. Medievals were ignorant, superstitious, and didn't do much of anything scientifically significant for nearly a thousand years. Our guest this week, author and historian James Hannam, says that this disparaging caricature of the Medieval Era is entirely wrong. This week's episode tackles the influence of Aristotle, the development of the university, and the idea of purpose in Medieval natural philosophy. James Hannam is a historian of the relationship between religion and science in the United Kingdom. He is the author of God's Philosophers - How the Medieval World Laid the Foundations of Modern Science (published in the US as The Genesis of Science: How the Christian Middle Ages Launched the Scientific Revolution) and The Globe: How the Earth Became Round.

Black holes remain one of the most enigmatic and wondrous entities in the cosmos. We have only known about them for less than a century. And just when you think you've got a handle on what exactly they are, new discoveries begin to challenge these assumptions. Just in the last decade, astrophysicists have not only photographed a black hole but have detected gravitational waves, the ripples in spacetime fabric created by the merger of two supermassive black holes.  (See a video on this at  https://www.youtube.com/live/aEPIwEJmZyE?si=tZhq0Gs-WKZfRvOX ) Here on part one, Wayne and Dan discuss the wonderful strangeness of black holes and a recent discovery of a black hole in a relatively young part of the universe. This black hole, based on current theories, shouldn't be there, as there were not enough stars or enough time for it to have accreted its mass.  So how did it get there? Astronomers are trying to figure that out. Come and see how the Good Heavens! duo thinks these dark stars point us once more back to the glory of God in Christ.

262 Who's Afraid of the Multiverse? [Part 2] with Dr. Jeff Zweerinkapologetics, apologetics profile, Jeff Zweerink, Daniel Ray, Watchman Fellowship, multiverse, Reasons to Believe, fine-tuning, big bangOur guest again this week, astrophysicist and author at Reasons to Believe (www.reasons.org) Dr. Jeff Zweerink, tells us that we have nothing to fear, not even the multiverse! Many atheists and skeptics have tried to employ the multiverse as a means of explaining away God as the cause of the existence of our universe. Come and hear what Jeff has to say this week about how creation not only is not threatened by modern science, but how it ultimately can encourage and strengthen our faith when we learn more about it. By faith we know that the physical universe and everything it contains, both seen and unseen, are all ultimately declaring the glory of God. This week we conclude our discussion about Jeff's 2008 book, Who's Afraid of the Multiverse?Jeff Zweerink is an astrophysicist and a senior research scholar for Reasons to Believe (www.reasons.org), an organization dedicated to demonstrating the compatibility of science and the Christian faith. Jeff's work focuses on helping people of all backgrounds bridge the perceived gap between science and the Christian faith. Jeff has also made many media appearances, on television, radio, and in print. He earned a BS in physics and a PhD in astrophysics with a focus on gamma rays from Iowa State University. He taught and ran the planetarium at Loras College in Dubuque, Iowa, until postdoctoral research in gamma rays led him to the University of California, Riverside. Jeff is also a coauthor on more than 30 academic papers published in peer-reviewed journals, such as Astrophysical Journal, Astroparticle Physics, and Astrobiology.Related Links: Access additional Watchman Fellowship resources related to this week's podcast: Watchman Fellowship 4-page Profile on Scientism by Dr. Luke Barnes and Daniel Ray: www.watchman.org/Scientism Watchman Fellowship 4-page Profile on Carl Sagan's Cosmos by Daniel Ray: www.watchman.org/CosmosTV Watchman Fellowship 4-page Profile on Naturalism by Daniel Ray: www.watchman.org/Naturalism Book: The Story of the Cosmos by Daniel Ray: www.watchman.org/CosmosBook Additional ResourcesFREE: We are also offering a subscription to our 4-page bimonthly Profiles here: www.watchman.org/Free.PROFILE NOTEBOOK: Order the complete collection of Watchman Fellowship Profiles (over 600 pages -- from Astrology to Zen Buddhism) in either printed or PDF formats here: www.watchman.org/notebook.

The universe is a fantastically wondrous place. There are more things in heaven and earth than are often dreamt of in our philosophies, to paraphrase Hamlet a little bit. And for the many things we can observe in the physical universe, science sometimes struggles to come up with an explanation as to what is really going on. How much more mysterious are those things which we cannot see? How should Christians think about things that the science of the heavens tells us cannot be seen, such as the idea of the existence of many different universes? That's the question we tackle this week and next on the broadcast with astrophysicist from Reasons to Believe, Dr. Jeff Zweerink. We talk about his 2008 book, Who's Afraid of the Multiverse? So, who is afraid of the multiverse?

James Tunney, ever-popular with the Alfacast community, returns for a part 3 exploration into the contemporaneous variant of "science", as a deceptive tool for totalitarian governance.  Obvious parallels with religious zealotry aside, the present atomistic bias shuns the living etheric mechanisms for nano-tech neuro-networks fueled by smart dust. We'll entertain the existence of evil, as the driver of the surrealistic insanity that has become the new normal.  Our discussion will traverse through Luciferianism & Satanism to Steiner Anthroposophy and the "Black Legend" of the British Empire.   James Tunney, left a successful academic career in law to focus on spiritual and artistic development.  As a prolific writer within academia and working as an international consultant, James is noted for his presentations on the various aspects of globalization in many countries around the world. James has refocused his creative talents to an in-depth exploration into Mysticism and Scientism through his brilliant works to include his most recent publication, Plantation of the Automatons: Rule of an Automaticity Loop, a follow-up on his prior book Human Entrance to Transhumanism.

Send us a textFor the past few centuries, we have philosophically operated under Newtonian physics where questions of experience and of the soul were seen as subjective, with no connection to the numerical certainty of science. However, then came quantum physics.In his new book, Light of the Mind, Light of the World: Illuminating Science Through Faith, classicist Dr. Spencer Klavan retells the history of science and highlights the philosophical implications of each era. He argues that quantum mechanics, with its exploration of uncertainty and consciousness, has not only returned physics to the question of the soul. But, also, has provided an incredible argument for the Genesis account of creation.You may recognize Dr. Klavan from his appearance in episode 104 - Modern Problems, Ancient Solutions - Applying the Wisdom of the Classics to the Cultural Conflicts of TodayTopics:The purpose of this bookMusic of the Spheres & the Medieval View of the world - the World as Beauty + OrderPhilosophical implications of "ghost in the machine" philosophyAI and the mechanical view of the universeGenesis, Consciousness, and Quantum MechanicsWorldviews and ScienceA clash of cultures: Scientism and Skepticism in AmericaConfusing spiritual truths and scientific truths"What books have had an impact on you?""What advice do you have for teenagers?"Bio:Dr. Spencer Klavan is an associate editor at the Claremont Review of Books and a podcaster on the great works of the West.

The world is not a machine. Humanity is not a mistake. Those should not be such bold words and yet, according to this week's guest, Spencer Klavan, they need to be repeated as often as possible today. For centuries, a grim anti-human outlook has taken hold of the public imagination, teaching us all to view ourselves as random products of a cruel and uncaring natural world. The pursuit of scientific understanding of the material world has made mastery of it and determinism the reigning orthodoxy. Light of the Mind, Light of the World, Spencer's new book, tells a daring new story about how we got here, and how we can chart a better path forward. He argues that science itself is leading us not away from God but back to him, and to the ancient faith that places the human soul at the center of the universe. Spencer A. Klavan is returning guest to the Anchoring Truths Podcast. A graduate of Yale, he earned his doctorate in ancient Greek literature from Oxford University. He is the author of the acclaimed book How to Save the West: Ancient Wisdom for 5 Modern Crises and the editor of Gateway to the Stoics. The host of the Young Heretics podcast and associate editor of the Claremont Review of Books, he has written for many outlets, including The Atlantic, the Los Angeles Times, City Journal, Newsweek, The Federalist, The American Mind, and The Daily Wire. He lives near Nashville, Tennessee.   Buy Light of the Mind, Light of the World here. Follow Spencer on X/Twitter Subscribe to Spencer's Substack

Prepare to have your understanding of the future challenged as Patrick Wood joins us to explore the complex tapestry of technology, global power, and biblical prophecy. Could artificial general intelligence be the key to a new era of societal control by 2027? We question the boundaries of human intelligence and the risks of a global control grid while contemplating how these technological advancements might fulfill ancient prophecies. From the great reset to transhumanism, we unravel the United Nations' ambitious vision for global governance and its connection to prophecy.Tom Hughes and Patrick Wood examine the evolution of scientism into transhumanism, examining its quasi-religious pursuit of immortality. With insights from historical figures like C.S. Lewis and H.G. Wells, we dissect the rise of science as a new belief system and its implications for control. The discussion highlights artificial intelligence's role in subtle social engineering, transforming thought processes undetectably akin to historical mind control experiments. Drawing parallels with DARPA's MKUltra, we address how AI quietly reshapes public perception and behavior.Delving into the global power dynamics, we analyze the influence of central banks and the push towards a digital world order. Patrick provides his perspective on central bank digital currencies and the impact of ESG scores, positioning them within a prophetic framework. We consider the potential for a global leader's emergence, aligning with biblical narratives of the end times. Our episode concludes with an appeal for truth-sharing, promoting informed discourse, and underscoring Jerusalem's critical spiritual and geopolitical role. Join us as we unpack these existential themes, offering insights and encouragement to stay engaged with these pivotal global issues.Send Us a Topic or Question you want to see covered.Find Us & Follow, Likes n Share helps our Reach.-Amos37 Website-Amos37 on Facebook-Amos37 on Instagram-Amos37 on Rumble-Amos37 on Gettr-Amos37 on Gab-Amos37 on Parler

The Big Bang - Heliocentric Theory misrepresents God's creation and testifies that there is no God. Not surprisingly, its primary exponents are mostly atheists who mock those who believe that the Bible is literally true.

Something a little out of the ordinary for our Good Heavens! family. How about theories in physics and cosmology combined with a discussion about Mormonism and storytelling? Yes! That's a lot to process, but we hope you'll find it mildly interesting and encouraging. This broadcast will also be airing on our sister podcast Apologetics Profile later next month. On this episode and next we'll be featuring our president of Watchman Fellowship, James K. Walker, a former 4th-generation Latter-day Saint in conversation with astrophysicist and cosmologist from Sydney, Australia, Dr. Luke Barnes, discussing many worlds, multiverses and Mormonism. There are also some surprise bonus clips from previous episodes you'll not want to miss! For millennia, man has been telling stories about himself, his origins and the nature of the cosmos. How do they all fit together? What's the right story of the cosmos and how can we know? We think you'll find this episode and next quite fascinating as we dive into these and other topics!

Steven A. Young PHD, traded his doctorate in nuclear physics for a digital audio workstation and an autodidactic initiation into alchemy, positive sciences, and natural physics. In this episode we discuss the first half of his book, A Fool's Wisdom, exploring his reasons for refuting the major foundational dogmas of the scientific establishment. In the free segment you'll learn about the follies of atomism, nuclear, quantum & astrophysics, and how to exalt positive sciences over pointless techne of academic jargon. In the Plus+ Extension we probe deeper into the workings of radioactive metals and nuclear power, church bells and the vibratory nature of healing, the self-harmonizing universe, the Stephen Hawking psyop, the one-way conversion to a geocentric cosmology, the Space X space sex hex, the possible reality of the cosmic egg, and the balance of four elements as a framework for achieving health and coherence.

We're back! After taking the summer off, Pastor Zarling and Pastor Hagen begin discussing the sequel to “Resisting the Dragon's Beast.” The working title of book 2 is “Babylon and the Beast: "What happens when the government promotes paganism?” In this episode, we begin discussing the prostitute named Babylon that sits on the beast out of the sea in Revelation 17-18. Babylon symbolizes pagan religions and the beast symbolizes governments that persecute Christians. In “Babylon and the Beast,” we will demonstrate how our American government promotes and funds these pagan religions: Molech (child sacrifice); Asherah (abhorrent sex); Baal (climate cult); Satanism; Nihilism; Gnosticism; Scientism, and Epicureanism. The angel speaking to John in Revelation says that Babylon and the beast “share one purpose” (Revelation 17:13). Together they wage war against the Lamb and his lambs.

There's a common belief that more people have been killed in the name of religion than any other cause. Are people who make this claim ignorant of all who have been killed in the name of atheism, Nazism, communism, or even "reproductive health"? All of these deadly philosophies have been justified by scientism. Join us for today's  Daily Word & Prayer to learn more about scientism and why it is so destructive. Scripture Used in Today's MessageProverbs 21:30Romans 1:21-22Have you read my book, "Takin' it to Their Turf"?If not, you may request a copy on my website, www.TomthePreacher.comWe send a copy to anyone who donates to our ministry, but if you can't do so, simply request a copy by sending us an email. Who do you know that needs to hear today's message? Go ahead and forward this to them, along with a prayer that God will use it in their life.To find Tom on Instagram, Facebook, TiKTok, and elsewhere, go to linktr.ee/tomthepreacher To support Tom Short Campus Ministries, click herehttps://www.tomthepreacher.com/support************ Do you want to have all your sins forgiven and know God personally? *********Check out my video "The Bridge Diagram" at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0Kjwrlind8&t=1sCheck out my website, www.TomthePreacher.com, to learn more about my ministry and sign up for my daily email.

Enjoy this episode? Please share it with at least ONE friend who you think needs to hear it!  What if modern science isn't telling us the whole truth? In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Steve Young, an author, musician, and natural philosopher, to explore the world of alchemy and challenge the rigid structures of contemporary science. Dr. Young, known by the music alias Hedflux, takes us on a journey through his experiences and the profound shifts in his understanding of reality. We dive into the reasons behind his decision to write his book, the natural science that is accessible to everyone, and the role shamanic experiences played in reshaping his worldview.   Episode Highlights:  Path to Alchemy: Dr. Young shares the events that led him from a conventional academic background in theoretical physics to the mystical world of alchemy, influenced by shamanic experiences that made him question everything he was taught.  Natural Science vs. Modern Science: A comparison of classical physics, which is rooted in observation and discovery, with modern science, which often relies on authority to dictate truth. Dr. Young delves into how these differences influenced his shift in perspective.  Heliocentrism and Gravity: Dr. Young discusses what led him to question the heliocentric model and the concept of gravity, including his thoughts on various scientific experiments like the Michelson-Morley experiment and their perceived flaws.  The Alchemical Elements: Explore the four classical elements—air, water, earth, and fire—and how ether connects with them. Dr. Young also breaks down the symbology of the tetractys and the deeper meaning behind the caduceus.  Alchemy and the Periodic Table: Dr. Young explains how the elements on the periodic table are formed through the transmutation of the four classical elements and shares insights into the inner processes of alchemy and the vessels used in this transformative work.  Evolution and Creation: A thought-provoking discussion on how the theory of evolution may detract from the universe's creation power, opening the door to alternative perspectives on existence.   About Dr. Steve Young:  Steven Young, based in Scotland, is an author, musician, and natural philosopher. Holding a Master of Science (MSci) and PhD in theoretical physics, Dr. Young transitioned from academia to a career as a music producer, known by the alias Hedflux. His journey led him to Central America and Hawaii, where he immersed himself in shamanic practices and alchemy. His first book, A Fool's Wisdom - Science, Conspiracies & The Secret Art of Alchemy (2024), challenges contemporary scientific dogmas through the lens of alchemy.

Every generation has its favorite bad ideas. In ancient Rome, wealthy elites paid top-dollar for vials full of gladiators' sweat, as they believed it could prevent signs of aging. (It couldn't.) In the 1700s, doctors told patients suffering with gout that drinking more gin would cure their disease. (It didn't.) Less than two centuries ago, most people around the world believed it was appropriate to own, buy, and sell other people. (It wasn't.) It's easy to cast judgment on the mistakes of the past, but what about our modern-day missteps? A hundred years from now, what will people say about us? Modern Heresies is a series of messages about some of the most prolific bad ideas of our time. From selfism (“I am the center of the universe.”) and sensualism (“If it feels good, do it.”) to scientism (“Science is all we can know for sure.”) and syncretism (“I can make my own belief system by taking what I like from many religions and worldviews.”), we have no shortage of harmful, false teachings these days. Join us on Sundays starting July 14 as we critique these (and other) modern heresies through the lens of the Bible.

Vivek and Philip Goff discuss the rise of scientism–the framework that says that science or empiricism is the only means of accessing knowledge. How may humanity access knowledge? What is the core philosophy of scientism? What are the implications for accessing not only scientific but also spiritual knowledge? More from Philip Goff: Philip Goff's book ‘Why?

Last year, while traveling around the Netherlands and speaking with the farmers getting kicked off their land, we also wanted to answer a fundamental underlying question. The Dutch farmers were getting off their land because the government ostensibly wanted to reduce nitrogen emissions, with the thinking being that if they didn't reduce emissions, the environment will be ruined. However, is that really the case? Will the environment really be in danger if these nitrogen standards aren't met? And also, what is the science behind those standards? The best weather models can only tell you the forecast for about a week out, but these government nitrogen models claim to be able to foresee the future decades in advance. And so, in order to figure this out, we went over to the home of Dr. Jaap C. Hanekamp. He's not only a scientist who's studied the nitrogen issue for well over eight years—and he was even commissioned by the nitrogen ministry to look into the matter—but aside from being a scientist, he's also a theologian, giving him a very unique perspective on the matter. And what he told us about these climate models was rather shocking, to say the least. Take a listen.

In the latest episode of Green Beauty Conversations, we delve into the “science washing” that is rife in the beauty industry. This term, akin to its near neighbour “greenwashing”, refers to the use of scientific jargon to mask pseudoscientific ideas. Last week, podcast host Lorraine Dallmeier, CEO of Formula Botanica, explored the nuances of so-called “medical-grade skincare” with Ana Green, Education Manager at Formula Botanica. They unpacked its role as a marketing term, and how its hype often misleads consumers about the quality and real efficacy of skincare products. In this opinion episode, Lorraine unravels the broader implications of scientism or “science washing” in the beauty industry.
