Dr. Edwin Barnhart, director of the Maya Exploration Center, has over twenty years of experience in Central and South America as an archaeologist, an explorer and an instructor. He has appeared in over a dozen documentaries and given presentations all over the world.His involvement in Maya studies began in 1990 as an archaeological intern in the ruins of Copan, Honduras. In January of 1996 he was invited to return to Copan and help the University of Pennsylvania excavate the early acropolis and the tomb of the city's lineage founder. From 1992-1995 he had been studying art, iconography and epigraphy (hieroglyphic translation) under the late Dr. Linda Schele at the University of Texas at Austin. During that same time he worked across the state of Texas as a contract archaeologist.In 1994 he began working as a surveyor and a UT field school instructor in the jungles of Northwestern Belize. After finding numerous small villages, Dr. Barnhart discovered the ancient city of Ma'ax Na (Monkey House), a major center of the Classic Maya Period. He mapped over 600 structures at Ma'ax Na between 1995 and 1997 before moving his research focus to Chiapas, Mexico. Also while in Belize, Dr. Barnhart worked with the Belize Post Classic Project mapping the island of Caye Coco and excavating a series of burials on an island in Laguna de On. Dr. Barnhart received his Masters degree in May of 1996 and began teaching Anthropology classes at Southwest Texas State University the following September. He taught Archaeology and Anthropology classes at SWTS until 1998 when he was invited by the Mexican government to direct the Palenque Mapping Project. The Palenque Mapping Project was a three-year effort to survey and map the unknown sections of Palenque's ruins. Over 1100 new structures were documented, bringing the site total to almost 1500. The resultant map has been celebrated as one of the most detailed and accurate ever made of a Maya ruin. He received a Ph.D. from the University of Texas at Austin in 2001 with his dissertation entitled The Palenque Mapping Project: Settlement Patterns and Urbanism in An Ancient Maya City.Upon graduation, Dr. Barnhart and his colleagues established Maya Exploration Center through which to continue and share their research. As of 2020, he has led over 200 ancient sciences travel courses in 15 different countries. Also through MEC, he is the author of an annual wall calendar and an iPhone app which explains the ancient Maya calendar.In 2012, he produced a 24-lecture video series for the Teaching Company's Great Courses entitled “Lost Worlds of South America”. His second Great Course entitled “Maya to Aztec: Ancient Mesoamerica Revealed” was released in March of 2015. Then in 2018 his third Great Course was released, entitled “Ancient Civilizations of North America”. His most recent production with Great Courses is a 6-episode travel series called “Exploring the Mayan World”.Over the last two decades, he has appeared multiple times on the History Channel, the Discovery Channel, Discovery Channel 3D, Canada's Religion Television, Japanese NHK Public Television, and an award-winning documentary entitled “2012: The Beginning”. Dr. Barnhart is a Fellow of the Explorer's Club and leads travel courses for college professors on ancient astronomy, mathematics and sacred geometry.

The Soul of Civility; Book discussion with Alexandra HudsonIn this episode, guest host Julian Adorney is joined by guest Alexandra Hudson to discuss her book, The Soul of Civility. They explore the difference between politeness and civility, the harm of incivility, and the importance of heroes and mentors in inspiring better behavior. The conversation flows into the importance of courage, balancing compassion and self-protection,  and the importance of being fully present and engaged in our interactions. A truly inspirational discussion on the timeless principles to heal society and ourselves.  Takeaways  Civility is a disposition, a way of seeing others as moral equals and worthy of respect. Incivility not only hurts others, but it also harms ourselves and deforms our souls.Heroes and mentors can inspire us to act with greater courage, integrity, and compassion.Treating others with compassion and kindness is good for its own sake and mutually ennobling.Being fully present and engaged in our interactions is a profound gift that nourishes our souls and honors the dignity of others.Who is Alexandra Hudson? ALEXANDRA O.

The Soul of Civility: Timeless Principles to Heal Society and Ourselves by Alexandra Hudson https://amzn.to/3tGNRYu Alexandra Hudson, daughter of the "Manners Lady," was raised to respect others. But as she grew up, Hudson discovered a difference between politeness―a superficial appearance of good manners―and true civility. In this timely book, Hudson sheds light on how civility can help bridge our political divide. From classical philosophers like Epictetus, to great twentieth-century thinkers like Martin Luther King Jr., to her own experience working in the federal government during one of the most politically fraught eras in our nation's history, Hudson examines how civility―a respect for the personhood and dignity of others―transcends political disagreements. Respecting someone means valuing them enough to tell them when you think they are wrong. It's easy to look at the divided state of the world and blame our leaders, the media, or our education system. Instead, we should focus on what we can control: ourselves. The Soul of Civility empowers readers to live tolerantly with others despite deep differences, and to rigorously protest wrongs and debate issues rather than silencing disagreements. A robust public discourse is essential to a truly civil society, and respecting others means telling hard truths. If enough of us decide to change ourselves, we might be able to change the world we live in, too. Provocative, personal, and acutely relevant, The Soul of Civility is an essential book for our era. Here are some key points from the podcast transcript: Guest Alexandra Hudson has a new book called "The Soul of Civility: Timeless Principles to Heal Society and Ourselves" about restoring civil discourse. Civility is about seeing others as moral equals and respecting their humanity, which can sometimes require breaking politeness norms. Incivility is a timeless human problem going back to ancient Egyptian teachings. We have a natural tension between self-interest and community. We need to move beyond surface-level politeness to have the hard, honest conversations required in a democracy. But with respect, not aggression. Local efforts like porching (sitting on porches together) can help rebuild community and trust across differences. Shared spaces and meals are powerful. Technology and busyness have made us more isolated. We need to rediscover the value of spontaneous interactions and getting to know our neighbors. Small everyday decisions to see the humanity in each person we encounter helps support human flourishing and civilization. Feelings of helplessness globally should inspire us to be more gracious locally. We have the power to be part of the solution through our daily actions. In summary, we can all contribute to healing society's divisions by focusing on true civil discourse, community-building, and respecting the equal dignity of every person we interact with daily. Small acts of graciousness and connection matter.

Everyone supports civility, in theory, when the “other side” is behaving themselves.  But what is the role of civility in an era of growing political division?  Is civility a weakness that can be exploited by our political opponents?  Is it simply being well-mannered and exceedingly nice, or is there more to it?   Those are the very questions Alexandra Hudson set out to answer in her new book, The Soul of Civility.  Alexandra joins Saving Elephants host Josh Lewis to unpackage how civility holds the timeless answers for humanity's timeless struggle with living alongside the “other side”.   About Alexandra Hudson From Alexandra's website: Alexandra Hudson is a writer, popular speaker, and the founder of Civic Renaissance, a publication and intellectual community dedicated to beauty, goodness and truth.

What is the distinction between civility vs. politeness? How do we do life together? Why do so many of us have a lust to dominate others? How do we navigate the vertical relationship between the people and our governing authorities? More importantly, how do we navigate our horizontal relationships among our neighbors? How can we have a debate without it devolving into a quarrel? We've been grappling with these questions since the oldest story in the world has been told and since the oldest book was written.   ALEXANDRA HUDSON is a writer, popular speaker, and the founder of Civic Renaissance, a publication and intellectual community dedicated to beauty, goodness and truth.

For additional notes and resources check out Douglas' website.Definition:Simplified historical overview:300s-600s -- Most of the Holy Land is part of the Eastern (Byzantine) Roman Empire.600s -- this territory becomes part of the Caliphate (Islamic).1000s-1100s -- Christian warriors and peasants (all strata of society participated) strive to take back the land, establishing Crusader States, along with multiple fortifications.1200s -- Christians for the most part give up the dream of reconquering the Holy Land, instead targeting their crusades on fellow Christians and other perceived enemies.Massive military attempts to recapture "Christian" territory, especially in the Holy Land, from the Muslims.Pilgrimage meets (Old Testament) holy war.The journey of faith is a biblical pilgrimage (Hebrews 11).Even so, traditionally pilgrims were supposed to travel unarmed.Up to 100,000 Europeans took part in these efforts.Source of word: Latin crux, cross.How many?There were four major crusades, though many more took place even after these concluded in the 13th century.First Crusade, 1095-1099Second Crusade, 1147-1149 -- Crusader States establishedThird Crusade, 1189-1192 -- setting of the film The Kingdom of HeavenFourth Crusade, 1198-1204 -- focused on Constantinople (capital of the [Eastern] Roman Empire), and Orthodox Christians, more than the MuslimsSubsequent crusadesE.g. Northern Europe and SpainLast Crusade (Venice vs. Ottoman Turks), 1684-1699Motivation?Various: plunder, glory, peer pressure, family honor, wanderlust, etc.Motivation must have been strong, esp. for those who spent a fortune in provisioning. (Imagine having to spend $100,000, or $300,000, to fund (and arm) yourself and your servants for the journey -- which could take many months! This isn't like shopping for a last-minute travel deal!)Forgiveness."Plenary indulgences" promised by the pope.As Douglas Groothuis remarks, "Claims made by popes that the soldiers dying in a crusade would be guaranteed heaven are entirely unbiblical and, in fact, resemble Islamic claims more than anything found in Holy Scripture" (Christian Apologetics, IVP Academic, 2011), 112.If there had been no crusades, would indulgences have been the flashpoint of the Protestant Reformation? It's interesting to ponder...AnalysisThe crusades were a radical departure from basic Christian values.Pilgrimage / holy war hybridUncritical use of scripture -- combining OT holy war with Christianity.Precedents?Augustine (354-430): "Just War" theory.Byzantine conquest of southern and central Italy in 6th century.AttitudesBefore 13th century, crusaders could not believe that Muslims would want to become like the Christians, since the Muslims were so much more advanced culturally and economically. Easier to rationalize warfare over persuasion."The Franciscans and Dominicans saw no contradiction or opposition between crusade and mission" (Daileader, 158).King Louis IX of France: Christians should let attempt to defend the faith, "except with his sword, and that he should thrust it into the scoundrel's belly, as far as it will enter."French theologian Peter Comestor (d.1179), when asked by the Patriarch of Jerusalem whether crusading was really permissible in light of biblical teaching. In response, Peter told the patriarch to "act in a manly way, be composed, and shed the blood of Christ's enemies."Example and teaching of Christ?Jesus did not teach or exemplify violence towards those who rejected his message.In contrast, Muhammad both preached and engaged in violence.Muslim tolerance only if paid jizha (tribute money).Otherwise, jihad!Below: The scimitar is the curved sword historically wielded by Islamic warriors (as opposed to the more conventional swords of the Crusaders).Ends & means?Crusaders claimed to be doing God's will. So why after 1291 did the crusaders fail to hold on to Jerusalem and other parts of the Holy Land?The Crusades were ultimately unsuccessful. These were a colossal failure, not "blessed" by God!     Conclusion:Let's be informed.Make it a goal to become generally familiar with key developments in church history.Remember that the 4 major crusades spanned the years from the late 11th to the 13th centuries.Let's be sensitive.Be careful about language. "Crusade" is an unpleasant and even scary word for some people, especially Jews and Muslims.Understand the bitter root that has taken hold among many Muslims -- the violence response on their part is not justified but it isn't irrational. It makes sense.Let's be humble.We need to "own" the evil of believers -- false and true -- through the history of the church, for instance the Inquisition and the Crusades.Let's not act all "holier than thou."We don't know for sure what we may or may not have condoned -- whether living in Spain during the worst 3 centuries of the Spanish Inquisition, or in Nazi Germany, or the century plus after the year 1000.Let's be convicted.While remaining humble, we should take a stand on the issue of treatment of one's enemies, since Jesus so emphasized this (Matt 5).When the church on the whole embraced the way of violence, beginning in the 4th century, they were abandoning the call of Christ.The Crusades are a disgraceful blotch on the history and the memory of the church of Christ.Further study:Basic:Wikipedia articleHistory Channel ProgramIntermediate: "How the Crusades Changed History" (24 half-hour lessons by Philip Daileader), published by The Teaching Company.Note: While it is true that many been killed in religious wars, far more have perished in the 20th century alone at the hands of atheistic regimes: some 39 million in war, plus 169 million more in state-sponsored execution, genocide, or persecution (total 210m).

One of the great ironies of the Christian religion is that the person Christians worship isn't a Christian. Jesus was born, raised, and died a Jew. He might even find it odd that an entire new religion grew up out of his short life and painful death. He is without question, the most popular person to have ever walked the earth. But what do we really know about this first century Galilean? If we are honest, not much. He was born to humble parents under sketchy circumstances, he grew to become an itinerant preacher and wisdom teacher. The poor loved him, drunks drank with him, and sex workers called him friend. Some believed him a prophet, others thought he was the Messiah. The religious elite saw him as a threat and the Roman Empire eventually murdered him as a political revolutionary. But what cannot be questioned about the historic Jesus is his Jewish identity. He was rooted in first century Judaism. He celebrated the Jewish festivals. He went on pilgrimage to the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem, he taught in the Synagogue. He was a miracle worker and mystic. If you grew up in the church, Jesus was presented as the first Christian, a man who dedicated his life to dismantling Judaism in route to founding a new religion. But this view is not only historically inaccurate, it fails to account for Jesus' Jewish identity. In this erudite episode, scholar Amy-Jill Levine helps Christians and Jews understand the "Jewishness" of Jesus so that our appreciation of him deepens and a greater interfaith dialogue can take place. Levine's humor and informed truth-telling provokes honest conversation and debate about how Christians and Jews should understand Jesus in the modern world. How have we gotten him right? How have we gotten him wrong? What might we learn about him by remembering and studying his Jewish identity? What would Jesus have believed about hell, sexuality, women, and the Bible in his first century Jewish context?We've all met Jesus before. Or, have we? Meeting Jesus as a first century Jew just might change not only how you see yourself, but your faith tradition as well. BioAmy Jill Levine (“AJ”) is Rabbi Stanley M.
