Can artificial intelligence transform how we navigate the most challenging dialogues on campus? Join us for a thought-provoking episode featuring philosopher and educator Simon Cullen, as he unveils his pioneering work at the intersection of education, technology, and constructive disagreement.In conversation with John Tomasi, Simon explores how open inquiry is both advanced and imperiled by disagreement, and describes his academic journey from Australia to Princeton and Carnegie Mellon. Central to the discussion is ‘Sway' an AI-powered platform developed by Simon and his team to foster rigorous, evidence-based dialogue among students on controversial topics. Sway intelligently pairs students with opposing views and acts as a “guide on the side,” scaffolding reasoning, encouraging intellectual humility, and ensuring that exchanges remain constructive and charitable. Simon shares the empirical findings from thousands of Sway-mediated dialogues, where measurable increases in students' openness, comfort, and analytical reasoning have been observed—even on divisive subjects like gender, immigration, and the Israel-Palestine conflict. In This Episode:

  In this episode of Doug Casey's Take, Doug and I discuss Trump's latest speech and the broader geopolitical shifts unfolding before our eyes. As always, Doug doesn't hold back. “Trump is mightily entertaining, but let's be honest—his rhetoric is often nonsense. That doesn't mean he's wrong about everything.” “The U.S. government is a dangerous predator sitting on top of America. People conflate the government with the people—they're not the same.” “If you want to solve the drug problem, legalize drugs. That's the only answer. Everything else is theater.” We cover Trump's plan to “unshackle” the economy, the deep state's resistance, the looming financial collapse, and why he believes America's overreach—from the Panama Canal to Greenland—is a mistake. Doug also gives his take on the latest Ukraine minerals deal and what's going on with Europe ramping up military spending. 00:00 Introduction and Initial Impressions of Trump's Speech 00:15 Entertainment Value and Comparisons to Zelensky's Visit 01:28 Analyzing Trump's Speech and Economic Claims 03:07 Fact-Checking and Media Reactions 05:49 Trump's Economic Policies and Their Implications 19:06 Discussion on Social Security and Tax Policies 21:56 Trump's Proposals for the Auto Industry and Tariffs 27:23 Declaring War on Drug Cartels 29:58 The Cycle of Violence and Drug Addiction 32:08 The Death Penalty Debate 34:49 Transgender Issues and Child Transition Surgery 37:00 National Security and the Golden Dome 39:28 Reshoring Shipbuilding and the Panama Canal 44:51 Trump's Radical Policies and Greenland 54:48 European Relations and Defense Spending 58:59 The Mineral Deal in Ukraine 01:01:48 Concluding Thoughts and Future Speculations

Is gender a fluid concept or a fixed statement? Are you born a man or a woman, or do you get to choose? In this program, guest teacher Pastor Tim Lundy looks to Scripture for answers to these questions that so many people in society are wrestling with. Hear why a Bible-based sexual ethic offers hope and genuine love from a God who made men and women in His image.Main Points Introduction: As Christians, our approach to sex and gender must be marked by grace and truth. When approaching transgender issues, we protect against the ideology while still caring about the individual. -John 10:11-12; Luke 15:4 Understanding the terms: Sex: Refers to a person's biological status and is typically categorized as male, female, or intersex. Gender: The psychological, social, and cultural aspects of being male or female. Gender Dysphoria: Distress some people feel when their internal sense of self doesn't match their biological sex. (Early onset, Late / Adolescent onset, and Rapid onset gender dysphoria) Transgender: An umbrella term that describes people whose gender identity or expression does not match the sex they were assigned at birth. What does the Bible say? (Sprinkle, pages 63-77) The body is essential to our image-bearing status. -Genesis 1:27 Male and female in Genesis 1 are categories of sex, not gender. -Genesis 1:28a Adam and Eve's bodies are viewed as sacred. -Genesis 2:21-22 Jesus views Genesis 1-2 as normative. -Matthew 19:4-5 Paul sees the body as significant for moral behavior and correlates the body to personhood. -1 Corinthians 6:19-20; Romans 6:13 Scripture prohibits cross-sex behavior. -Deuteronomy 22:5; 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 The incarnation of Christ affirms the goodness of our sexed embodiment. -Colossians 2:9 Sex difference probably remains after the resurrection. -Luke 20:35-36; Romans 8:11; 1 John 3:2 Jesus' acceptance of the eunuch is not a pattern for understanding gender identity. -Matthew 19:12 Paul's reference to neither “male or female” does not overturn sex differences. -Galatians 3:28 Summary points and next steps: Biological sex and gender are linked together and important to God's design. Instead of transitioning, we should help people accept their bodies as part of their God-given identity. Recognize the unique struggle for Christians who suffer with Gender Dysphoria. As a church, we must strive to create a safe place where all people can find and follow Jesus. Avoid defining gender according to stereotypes and embrace the diversityof expression in God's design. We must confront the lies of the current ideology because it is destroying lives. We must never lose sight of the individual that Christ loves no matter how their lives have been impacted by sin.

Parents: Please use caution. Not all material in this podcast episode may be suitable for young ears.   In a thought-provoking clip of The Patrick Madrid Show, Patrick Madrid explores the reality of identity, fatherhood, and gender in light of Catholic teaching. Joshua from Ohio brings up a question: if societal roles like fatherhood can change based on actions and social functions, why can't the same logic apply to gender?    Patrick clarifies that, unlike societal roles, biological realities like being a father, or male and female, remain unchanged despite societal perceptions or actions. He likens this to the immutable nature of biological fatherhood, irrespective of the quality of the father-child relationship.    Joshua counters with scenarios where social acknowledgment supersedes biological ties, especially in cases of adoption or absence. Yet, Patrick remains firm: while social roles may evolve, biological realities stay constant, echoing Catholic teachings that a man born a man remains a man, and a woman born a woman remains a woman.   The conversation shifts to the topic of transgender individuals. Patrick argues that even if a person "passes" as the opposite gender, it doesn't alter their biological reality. He emphasizes the distinction between societal perception and biological fact, highlighting the Church's stance on the sanctity of one's birth sex.

Join us for a profound conversation with Greg Koukl, the mind behind Stand To Reason, as we navigate the increasingly complex dialogue between faith, sexuality, and the cultural transformations that challenge Christian conversations today. As our societal landscape morphs, so too does the discourse around biblical sexual ethics, rendering Greg's apologetic work more vital than ever. Our discussion moves from the respectful engagement in an era dominated by the dehumanizing effects of social media to the intricacies of gender dysphoria and the significant impact of recent legal decisions. This episode promises to equip believers with compassionate, yet firm strategies for holding meaningful conversations on some of today's most sensitive issues.  The journey through gender identity and its spiritual and scientific dimensions proves to be both sensitive and enlightening. Unpacking the prevalence of gender dysphoria, particularly among adolescents, we tackle the controversy of social contagion and the politicization of science within the framework of faith. Greg brings to light the importance of understanding the binary nature of gender dysphoria against the backdrop of mental health challenges. Providing clarity in a time of confusion, our exchange seeks to highlight the spiritual narratives underpinning the current societal views on gender.  Concluding this essential dialogue, we reflect on the Christian experience, including the church's own pitfalls and the necessity for honesty in our sexual struggles. Greg sheds light on celibacy in gay relationships and the invaluable support provided by ministries like Calibrate for parents of LGBTQ children. By emphasizing the necessity of community and sharing resources freely, we aim to reinforce the importance of upholding God's standards for sexuality. This episode is an invitation to join a conversation that holds space for encouragement, community building, and steadfast faith in Christ above all.TIMESTAMPS:(00:16) - Cultural Shifts in Biblical Sexual Ethics (14:46) - Gender Dysphoria and Societal Influences (22:11) - Navigating Struggles in Christian Living (34:09) - Clarifying Biblical Stance on Homosexuality (42:20) - Ethical Perspectives on LGBTQ Relationships (57:41) - Community Building Through Free ResourcesResources from Stand To Reason:Website: https://www.str.orgYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@STRvideos Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/standtoreason93Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/standtoreason/Get Greg's books here:https://store.str.org/home

Transgender Issues Featuring Dr. Robin Mathy Emily Dickinson, from Amherst, Massachusetts, was one of the greatest American 19th century poets, and after hearing one of our Amherst professors explain her life and work, I fell in love with her incredible poetry. When she attended Mt. Holyoke College as a freshman, she was obligated to sign up as a “Christian,” a “Non-Christian with hope,” or a “Non-Christian without hope.” She was the only student who had ever signed up as a “Non-Christian without hope,” and she was given one semester to change her registration category. When she refused, she was asked to leave, and spent the rest of her life living in Amherst, baking cookies for children and writing her fabulous poems, which were sometimes included in her cookie packages. Her poetry was all about loss, which was much the story of her life. However, she was not self-pitying, which is part of what makes her poetry so sad and magical. Emily Dickinson always dreamed of visiting the west, but never got the chance to travel much beyond the outskirts of Amherst. She once wrote, To make a prairie, It takes one clover, and a bee. One clover and a bee. And reverie. The reverie alone will do, if bees are few. Tears come to my eyes every time I think about that poem! When I was a student at Amherst, we used to visit her grave, and I once actually knocked on the door of the house where she once lived. I explained I was a huge fan and actually got the chance to look around. I actually found a poem scribbled on a scrap of paper on a window ledge. Today we interview Dr. Robin Mathy, who describes herself as “A human who hopes.” Robin is a well-published expert on LGBTQ issues, with a specialization in transgender research and political activism based on science to debunk hateful myths about sexuality. She is also a new member of our Tuesday training group at Stanford! In addition to studying to become a TEAM therapist, Robin is a Doctor of Social Work student at Tulane University.  She is a researcher and activist who has published four books and more than 50 peer-reviewed articles or book chapters.  She is a beloved member of David and Jill's Tuesday TEAM CBT group. Rhonda kicked off today's podcast by reading two very moving endorsements from people who heard part 1 of the live work with Jessica, “Living with Regrets,” which we had published just prior to our interview with Robin. Then Rhonda kicked off our dialogue with Robin by asking if there are any special treatment considerations when you are working with trans individuals. Robin said that there really aren't—TEAM-CBT is already highly personalized and individualized, so we let the patient set the agenda. Robin emphasized the importance, of course, of being warm, affirming, and supportive. In addition, do not assume that the patient is there because of gender identity issues, or automatically refer them to a support group on that topic, because the patient's issue may be radically different, and that would amount to stereotyping your patient. I asked Robin for a simplified introduction to LGBTQ, including what these terms actually mean. That's because I have to admit I never had any good sexual diversity training during my medical school or psychiatry residency, and I suspect that some of our podcast fans, perhaps many, would also appreciate a little enlightenment based on science. Robin pointed out that transgender has to do with identity issues: what is your sense of self? Do you see yourself  more as a woman or a man? And sometimes, this will be quite different from the gender you were assigned at birth. So, for example, you may be assigned as a boy at birth, but your sense of who you are may be a girl, when you are young, and a woman as you develop during puberty. In this case, you would be a trans-gender woman. To be respectful, you should refer to a transgender woman as she or her. And, of course, if you were assigned as a girl at birth, but your sense of who you are is a boy/man, you would be a transgender man, referred to as he / him. Some transgender people are nonbinary, meaning they do not want to be referred to as either a man or a woman, and they do not want to be referred to with either binary pronoun. To be respectful and sensitive, you should always ask someone what pronouns they prefer. In contrast, the terms, LGBQ, do not refer to gender identity, but rather to sexual attraction. So, a lesbian is a woman who is sexually or romantically attracted to women, and a gay man is attracted to men, and so forth. The term, “cis,” refers to your gender that was assigned at birth. According to the National Center for Transgender Equality, When a person begins to live according to their gender identity, rather than the gender they were thought to be when they were born, this time period is called gender transition. Deciding to transition can take a lot of reflection. . . . Possible steps in a gender transition may or may not include changing your clothing, appearance, name, or the pronoun people use to refer to you (like “she,” “he,” or “they”). But it can be a bit more complex. Robin says: A lot of people like me do not actually identify as transgender. I was assigned as a male at birth, but I have always felt like a girl / woman. I think of myself as gender-diverse, not as transgender. . . I remember taking a bath with my sister when we were young, and I realized that I had something that didn't belong on me. . . . My parents raised me as a boy, but I was always effeminate. As I developed as a teenager, my transition was from being “me” to being “fully me” and completely embracing my identity as a woman. This was freeing to me. We are taught to believe that there are two types of chromosomes that determine our gender: XX for female and XY for male. But this is misleading because there is actually a broad range of chromosomal makeups (sex), sexual attractions as well as gender identities, and gender identity and sexual attraction can be completely independent. For example, someone can be a transgender woman, and be attracted to either men or women or both. Robin pointed out that some transgender women can look like glamorous women, and two transgender women have actually won national beauty contests. "It is cruel," Robin suggests," to insist that transgender women must use men's bathrooms, just because they have the XY chromosome set." She pointed out that gender identity usually develops by age 7, but in trans individuals the incongruity between their gender identity and sex assigned at birth crystallizes at around age 10 or 11, during puberty. Although many transgender people recall being gender nonconforming and/or identifying as another gender in early childhood, we now know this is not always the case. We discussed the pain of discrimination trans individuals face, and Robin described her own suicide attempt in her early twenties, in part because her male sexual organs and secondary sex characteristics like facial hair “disgusted me.”  Fortunately, she was assigned a very understanding gay psychiatrist in the hospital, and he said that she could start transitional hormone therapy right away if she was interested, and this was a great help. She said that she was a candidate for the Olympic wrestling team, and it was clear that she did not appear feminine to others because of her muscles, and she experienced a great deal of ridicule and rejection when began to transition. This negative bias included some medical professionals she consulted for help. Eventually she was able to obtain gender-affirming surgery. She said she came out as gender-diverse in March 2023 to be an advocate because 24 states in just the past three years have banned gender-affirming medical care for minors. Robin also clarified the meaning of the term, queer, which used to be a pejorative term. Now it is embraced by the LGBTQ community as a term referring to all sexual and gender minorities. Toward the end of our interview, Robin emphasized the importance of hope, and said she had a “glimmer” of hope, even in her darkest hours. To learn more about Robin's pioneering work, or if you are interested in the science and research regarding transgender issues, Robin warmly invites you to visit her YouTube channel, (27) Robin Mathy - YouTube. She says, “Please feel free to disseminate the information” and wants you to know that “I love comments (positive and negative).” So give her some feedback if you're so inclined! Thanks for listening today! Robin, Rhonda and David

It's funny to me how religious extremists are so quick to proclaim that when the Rapture comes everyone will be put in their "right body," but their definition of the "right body" isn't consistent. If you're transgender, your right body is your pre-transition body, ie, the body you were born in. But, if you're disabled, the body you were born in ISN'T your right body.Support the showWatch my TEDx talk Email badattitudespod@gmail.comFollow @badattitudespod on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and ThreadsSupport the pod ko-fi.com/badattitudespodBe sure to leave a rating or review wherever you listen!FairyNerdy: https://linktr.ee/fairynerdy

Do civilizations crumble under the weight of shifting gender norms? Our dynamic panelists spark a riveting dialogue about this very question. We convened a panel, including Jeremy, Nick, Mary, Maximus, and Robert, to dissect the phenomenon that Murray proposes: the focus on gender identity as a harbinger of societal decline. As we traverse through our cultural landscape, from pop songs to policy debates, our episode delves into the heart of why gender conversations have become so pervasive in Western society, especially in the United States.  What is the Christian response?This is far more than just a discussion of societal constructs; it's an exploration of the spiritual vacuum that may be at our core. Our conversation ventures deep into the meaning of suffering and authenticity in a world that increasingly prioritizes individual identity over collective unity, let alone unification with Christ Jesus. We tackle the challenging idea that the blurring of established norms might not be the cause of societal deterioration but rather a symptom of a larger crisis—a detachment from a shared objective reality, Christ Himself, that once bound us together. Join us as we seek to understand whether our current preoccupation with personal identity is a sign of progress or peril.Thank you for journeying w/ the Saints with us!

Online Conference: https://www.worshipsecurity.org/securingyourplaceofworshipconference The topic of transgender issues within the church, especially relating to bathroom usage is a challenging subject. This episode was prompted by a card from the conflict de-escalation decison deck which a woman identifying as a transgender man used the men's restroom, causing a heated debate. 8th Annual Securing your Place of Worship (ONLINE CONFERENCE) https://www.worshipsecurity.org/securingyourplaceofworshipconference Join us on our next free Webinar: https://www.worshipsecurity.org/webinars Critical Thinking and Decision Drills Cards: https://www.decisiondecks.com/ Online Courses for Churches: https://www.worshipsecurity.org/ Simon's Books on Church Security: https://amzn.to/3QVi7Io Video Coach Described as the Netflix of Church Safety: https://www.worshipsecurity.org/videocoach The main takeaways from the discussion are as follows: Complexity of Issue: The transgender issue, especially in religious settings, is complex and cannot be resolved in a short span of time. Understanding Personal Biases: Before addressing the issue, one should remove their personal biases and opinions. While the speaker, Simon, acknowledges his personal struggles with transgender topics due to his biblically-based beliefs, he emphasizes the importance of putting those beliefs aside to de-escalate situations. Empathize and Inquire: The best way to address the situation is by understanding both parties involved. Ask questions, be curious, and try to ascertain the root causes of the discomfort or the misunderstanding. Transgender Perspective: An understanding of the perspective of the transgender individual is crucial. Engaging in a transparent conversation can help to identify the reasons behind their actions and how to accommodate them while respecting others' discomfort. What are your thoughts on this challenging subject?
