In this second episode on the Sorrowful Mysteries, Kimberly Hahn will unpack the biblical background of the first Sorrowful Mystery: The Scourging of Our Lord at The Pillar. Guiding us through the trials before the Jewish Sanhedrin, Pontius Pilate, and Herod Antipas, and ultimately to Jesus's being scourged, Kimberly reveals why the fruit of this mystery is modesty. In this episode you'll discover how Jesus reveals Himself to be the true “King of the Jews,” What the Shroud of Turin reveals about Jesus's scourging, and how John was permitted into the courtyard of the high priest. Rich with Old Testament background, this episode will deepen your meditations on the Second Sorrowful Mystery and help you better grasp the biblical texts of Jesus's trials and scourging.

Warner Wallace walks through the most popular claims about pre‑Turin relics—sudariums, veils, and rival "shrouds"—and explains why none of them close the chain‑of‑custody gap needed to treat the Turin cloth as first‑century evidence for Jesus.

Pour donner le top départ des vacances, Allora prend la route avec un écrivain voyageur, amoureux de l'Italie : Pierre Adrian.Cap sur le Nord-Ouest italien, des collines du Piémont aux rivages de la Ligurie, en passant par la Lombardie. Ce territoire il le raconte dans le récit littéraire qui introduit « Le Grand Tour - Voyage hédoniste en Italie / Nord-Ouest » (Éditions Michelin), une nouvelle collection qui réinvente l'esprit des grands voyages du XVIIIᵉ au XIXᵉ siècles. Plus qu'un guide, chaque volume est une invitation à découvrir une Italie intime, racontée par un auteur ou une autrice qui la connaît de l'intérieur, entre récit personnel, itinéraires choisis et adresses inspirantes.Si Pierre Adrian connaît si bien le Piémont, c'est parce qu'il l'a d'abord découvert en compagnie de Cesare Pavese. En suivant les traces du célèbre écrivain italien, il lui a consacré un récit, « Hôtel Roma », faisant du voyage un prolongement de la littérature. Un procédé qu'il avait déjà exploré quelques années auparavant avec « La Piste Pasolini », consacré aux paysages intimes de Pier Paolo Pasolini. Au fond, Pierre Adrian semble avoir cartographié l'Italie à partir de la littérature, et de toutes ces voix qui ont résonné en lui.Cette Italie littéraire irrigue également ses romans, comme « Les Bons Garçons », qui nous plonge dans la Rome des années 1970. Rome, justement, est devenue sa ville d'adoption. Installé dans la capitale italienne depuis cinq ans, il a également été pensionnaire de la Villa Médicis en 2023-2024. Dans cet épisode, il nous fait entrer dans les coulisses de cette institution mythique, et nous partage cette expérience qui a bouleversé sa vie.De Turin à Rome, embarquez pour une nouvelle escapade estivale. Buon viaggio !· L'univers de Pierre Adrian : Poursuivez le voyage dans l'Italie du Nord-Ouest de Pierre Adrian avec le guide « Le Grand Tour - Voyage hédoniste en Italie Nord-Ouest » (Ed. Michelin).

Et aussi « Le rêve inachevé de Jack Kerouac » (2026). · Les inspirations italiennes de Pierre Adrian :La citation de Federico Fellini sur Rome : « Giacché Roma è una madre, ed è la madre ideale, perché indifferente… Ti accoglie quando vieni, ti lascia andare quando vai. » (Rome est une mère, et la mère idéale, parce qu'elle est indifférente. Elle t'accueille quand tu viens, elle te laisse partir quand tu t'en vas.)

We're taking a break from True Sunlight this week, but we hope you enjoy this episode of 'Wherever It Leads... Milan' Follow the show at staypes.ky/wherever Tourists sprint to Rome and Florence while one of Europe's most alive cities hums quietly in the north — and that's exactly what makes Milan extraordinary. This week, writer, author, and Milanese insider Marta Mondelli pulls back the curtain on a city of hidden courtyards, wooden streetcars, world-class aperitivo, and jasmine-soaked springs. She explains why cappuccino after 11am is a “crime”, why the Milanese party as hard as they work, and why spring open days unlock palaces most visitors never see. Journalist Mandy Matney and producer David Moses share their own Milan memories — late-night dumplings in Chinatown, a train through the Alps, streets packed on a Tuesday like it was Saturday — while Marta weighs in on Lee Gilley's asylum claim in nearby Turin and Italy's growing conversation around feminicide. Plus: Lake Como, Turin, and the art of spending your tourism money where it actually matters.

In the last episode, we studied the findings from a variety of tests that were done on the Shroud of Turin to determine its authenticity. Now today, we challenge it against the most important source, the Word of God. If it does not line up with the Bible, then we know it can not be accurate. And it would appear upon first look of the accounts of the burial of Jesus that there is indeed an error between the four Gospels. But let's see what the original language has to say. Tune in to find out if there is indeed an error or if the evidence still stands that this could just possibly be the authentic burial cloth of Jesus. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------DONATE: https://evidence4faith.org/give/WEBSITE: https://evidence4faith.org/NEWSLETTER: http://eepurl.com/hpazV5BOOKINGS: https://evidence4faith.org/bookings/CONTACT: Evidence 4 Faith, 349 Knights Ave Kewaskum WI 53040 , info@evidence4faith.orgMy goal is that their hearts, having been knit together in love, may be encouraged, and that they may have all the riches that assurance brings in their understanding of the knowledge of the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. - Colossians 2:2-3CREDITS: Developed & Hosted by Michael Lane.

Most people know Austin Broderson because of the bareback riding accident that changed his life forever. But this conversation isn't about the wreck; it's about everything that came after. Growing up in Turin, Alberta, Austin was raised in a multi-generational rodeo family and was chasing his dream of competing professionally before his life took an unexpected turn in 2024. Instead of allowing adversity to define him, he's focused on rebuilding, adapting, and continuing to live the cowboy lifestyle he loves. In this episode, we dive into the mental side of recovery, learning to adapt when life doesn't go as planned, and redefining what success looks like. Austin shares how he's navigated frustration, found purpose in the small victories, leaned on family and community, and continues to hunt, rope, ride horses, and embrace the western way of life while inspiring thousands through his journey. Whether you're a rodeo fan, an athlete, or simply someone facing a challenge of your own, Austin's perspective is a powerful reminder that resilience isn't about pretending everything is okay, it's about finding a way to keep moving forward. We hope you enjoy the episode! Trigger warning: This episode talks about struggling with mental health and suicidal thoughts. Please watch with caution Shop all things cowboyshit.ca
Get the Exploring Tolkien App to listen to every episode, a Tolkien calendar, the latest news, and member exclusives! Is evil REALLY in control? Tolkien pursues this in this chapter–for the first and only time Morgoth reveals himself in a long discussion… and the results are….? We dissect this showdown on a hill of bones and discover why it is unlike anything else in Tolkien’s works, what it reveals about free will, evil, and despair, and how Húrin's stubborn defiance sets the stage for all the tragedy to follow. We also cover: Brandon Sanderson's “five ingredients” for epic fantasy The real meaning behind Morgoth's boasts about fate and power Where Tolkien slips myth, theology, and “eucatastrophe” right into the dialogue Free will or predestination… is there an answer here? In our extended episode (available via our Exploring Tolkien App or for our site’s members–), we go deeper on: Did Tolkien “ruin” fantasy by setting too high a bar? Why so much modern fantasy struggles in his shadow How much control did Morgoth really have over Húrin (and Turin)? More listener questions: the flame from Fingon's helm, the Doom of Mandos, and the limits of fantasy as a genre
In today's episode of Truth Wanted, ObjectivelyDan and B-Easy explore cosmological arguments, mysterious lights, and the problem of evil!Papo in Puerto Rico presents a cosmological argument claiming dependent beings prove God's existence. The hosts challenge his circular reasoning and ask him to demonstrate why the universe must be dependent rather than necessary. Why does one dependent being logically prove God exists? Can you explain the connection without assuming your conclusion?Georgi in Bulgaria discusses seeing mysterious lights in the sky and believes humans are non-physical eternal beings. He mentions quantum tunneling and claims we're in a physical reality for adventure. What evidence supports these claims beyond personal experience? Why should we accept this explanation over natural phenomena?George in FL, who studied to be a priest, calls to discuss why the hosts don't believe in God. He claims he's no longer Christian because churches won't baptize animals. The conversation becomes contentious as George repeatedly talks about previous callers instead of engaging with the hosts' explanations. Is anger really the reason for disbelief?Marie in TX asks about the Shroud of Turin and discusses miracles, cancer remissions, and exorcisms. The hosts explain spontaneous remission as a natural phenomenon and note that supposed demonic languages in exorcisms have been debunked. Would desperation change what we accept as evidence?Jake in MD identifies as agnostic theist and discusses whether it's more logical to believe everything happened by chance or that there's a guiding force. The hosts discuss the problem of evil and natural processes. Jake acknowledges he was raised Christian and trained to think everything has a reason, admitting fear may play a role.Thank you for joining us this week!

In this episode of The Past Macabre, step into the chaotic period of the Late Bronze Age Collapse to investigate one of history's oldest recorded high-profile murder cases. Egypt was already struggling from years of crop failures, famine, and the world's first recorded labor strike when a highly coordinated network of conspirators chose to exploit the chaos of a sacred celebration to assassinate the pharaoh Ramesses III. Through a detailed examination of ancient legal records and archaeological excavations at the scene of the murder we'll explore the ancient investigation, trial, and sentences of those found guilty. We'll also look at the modern CT scans of Ramesses III's mummy that confirmed his cause of death after modern researchers were left unsure for over 130 years. Join host Stephanie Rice as we explore how this ancient crime reveals deep community fears, fracturing social responsibilities, and what the breakdown of cosmic balance, or Maat, meant to the living.

We are revisiting one of our most fascinating Investigate Earth episodes: The Shroud of Turin. Is this ancient cloth truly connected to the burial of Jesus Christ, or is it one of history's greatest mysteries? For centuries, the Shroud has sparked debate among believers, skeptics, scientists, historians, and researchers. Some believe it may show the image of Jesus after the crucifixion. Others argue it could be a medieval forgery. But the questions surrounding the image, the wounds, the blood evidence, and the science behind the cloth continue to make the Shroud of Turin one of the most controversial religious artifacts in the world. In this episode, we explore the mystery of the Shroud of Turin, the possibility of evidence connected to Jesus' resurrection, and why this relic continues to capture the attention of people around the world.

In last week's episode, we introduced what is the most studied artifact of all time – the Shroud of Turin, the supposed burial cloth of Jesus. Today we dive into a deep investigation to determine whether this linen is indeed authentic, or if it is simply a beautiful piece of medieval artwork as some believe. Michael will investigate by using eight different ways that this artifact has been scientifically tested. What will the evidence show? Tune in to see if we can solve this intriguing mystery behind the Shroud of Turin. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------DONATE: https://evidence4faith.org/give/WEBSITE: https://evidence4faith.org/NEWSLETTER: http://eepurl.com/hpazV5BOOKINGS: https://evidence4faith.org/bookings/CONTACT: Evidence 4 Faith, 349 Knights Ave Kewaskum WI 53040 , info@evidence4faith.orgMy goal is that their hearts, having been knit together in love, may be encouraged, and that they may have all the riches that assurance brings in their understanding of the knowledge of the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. - Colossians 2:2-3CREDITS: Developed & Hosted by Michael Lane.

The Shroud of Turin – the most intensively studied artifact of all time. This ancient linen cloth depicts the image of a man who we can visibly see was beaten, bore a crown of thorns, scourged, stabbed, and clearly crucified Roman style. Could this have possibly been the burial cloth of Jesus? Michael was skeptical and doubted the authenticity for years, but has further studying of the artifact changed his mind?

Vi è mai capitato di discutere con qualcuno che continua a fare ipotesi impossibili su cose ormai passate? "Se avessi fatto così...", "Se fossi partito prima...". In Italia abbiamo un modo decisamente originale, ironico e un po' bizzarro per stroncare questi discorsi: tirare in ballo i nonni... e le ruote!In questa puntata di Italiano ON-Air, Katia e Alessio prendono spunto da una recentissima e virale conferenza stampa di Carlo Ancelotti ai Mondiali di calcio 2026 per fare un viaggio semiserio tra i proverbi regionali più divertenti d'Italia e la grammatica del quotidiano.
The use of air conditioning is becoming a concern in parts of Europe as a searing heatwave continues to grip much of the continent. Italy, the UK, and Spain are among nations sweltering in extreme heat, with temperatures soaring past 40 degrees in some regions. Severe red heat alerts have been issued for most of France and parts of Italy as temperatures break historical records. EU correspondent Jo McKenna told Mike Hosking many people aren't used to using air conditioning for economic reasons. She says there have also seen some energy blackouts in the Milan, Naples, and Turin over the last few days, due to a spike in air conditioning use.

After a brief memorial to the late Tenzin Robert Thurman, Ethan welcomes author and seeker Erica Bassani to discuss her new book, Women in Love with the Divine. Erica's book explores what it means to be a woman committed to a relationship with the sacred in today's world. On a quest to answer this question for herself, Erica Bassani shares stories from her encounters with a dozen women spiritual teachers from Buddhist, Taoist, Hindu, Christian, Muslim, Jewish, and Nondual traditions. They discuss her own spiritual journey, beginning with the study of the earliest Buddhist teachings, and explore her encounters and interviews with women wisdom holders from a wide variety of traditions. Erica Bassani is a writer based in Italy, and the author of the recently released Women in Love with the Divine. A graduate of the Academy of Storytelling in Turin, she spent a year living in a Theravadan Buddhist monastery at the age of 23. Since then, she has turned to female spiritual teachers from diverse traditions to help her navigate her inner journey. She created the Women Awakening Project—an initiative that highlights the wisdom of female spiritual role models and explores spiritual practice through the lens of women's experiences—to share their wisdom and create a bridge between generations of seekers. Bassani is also the Italian translator of The Four Noble Truths of Love by Susan Piver.

Is the Shroud of Turin a genuine relic of Jesus, a medieval hoax, or something else entirely? In this second episode on the Shroud of Turin, cold-case detective and Christian apologist J. Warner Wallace examines the shroud the way he would any piece of evidence in a homicide trial, focusing on chain of custody, historical silence, and what the earliest Christians actually relied on to make the case for the resurrection.

Send us Fan MailHe earned a name most priests would never want: the “priest of the gallows.” St. Joseph Cafasso walked into Turin's darkest prisons to kneel beside the condemned, not to excuse sin, but to prove with his whole life that God's mercy can reach a person even minutes before death.We tell Cafasso's story from the inside out: a gentle son of a farming family in 19th-century Italy, formed in an age marked by rigorism and scrupulosity, yet drawn again and again to the tenderness of Christ. His days begin at the tabernacle and end with devotion to Our Lady, and that interior life becomes concrete pastoral care behind iron bars. He listens to histories knotted with violence and despair, invites confession without theatrics, presses a crucifix into shaking hands, and points weary hearts to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The Eucharist, Marian prayer, and the simple act of staying present become a path from dread to peace.Along the way, we reflect on what his hidden apostolate still says to us now: how to accompany the suffering, how to talk about repentance without crushing people, and how to face our own fear of judgment with a deeper trust in Divine Mercy. If you're searching for Catholic inspiration grounded in the sacraments, the saints, and real human pain, Cafasso is a guide worth following.Subscribe for more saint stories and Catholic faith resources, share this with a friend who needs hope, and leave a review so more people can find the show.

The first chapter in this best-selling book discusses the fascinating possibility that the Shroud of Turin is the burial cloth of Jesus. Book: The Jesus Discoveries by Jeremiah J. Johnston Purchase book here I'm Gary Zacharias, a professor of English, avid reader, and passionate follower of Jesus Christ. This podcast is for anyone curious about the intellectual foundation of the Christian faith. Each episode, I feature a key book on topics like the existence of God, the historical evidence for Jesus, science and Christianity, or the reliability of the Bible. These are the books that have earned a permanent place on my apologetics bookshelf—and I want to share them with you. Contact me: theapologistsbookshelf@gmail.com
Dr. Jeremiah Johnston does not just talk about evidence. He brings it. A first-century Roman crucifixion nail, six inches long, curved from being hammered into flesh again and again. The dice the soldiers cast for a dying man's clothes. Ancient coins. A cup pulled from the waters of Alexandria that calls Jesus a magician and predates the gospels. One by one, he sets them on the table, and one by one, the story of the cross stops feeling like a story. We examine how the Shroud of Turin is scientific proof of the resurrection. We stare at the face of the man of the shroud, 374 scourge marks, a side wound between the fifth and sixth rib, and an image science still cannot replicate. Jeremiah breaks down the 1898 negative photograph that started it all, the flawed carbon dating, the pollen grains that only bloom in springtime in Jerusalem, and the burst of energy it would take to scorch that image into the cloth.Jeremiah is a New Testament scholar, the number one New York Times bestselling author of The Jesus Discoveries, and a man who has carried this evidence to Tucker, Shawn Ryan, and the World Economic Forum at Davos. And he comes to Blurry Creatures because he embraces the same thing we do. The supernatural is real, and the modern church has a truncated view of it. We get into the cup that calls Jesus a magician, the graffiti that mocks the crucifixion, his own angel encounter on a New Jersey highway, and the one question that ends the skeptical argument.

Full Text of Readings Wednesday of the Eleventh Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 367 The Saint of the day is Saint Joseph Cafasso Saint Joseph Cafasso's story Even as a young man, Joseph Cafasso loved to attend Mass and was known for his humility and fervor in prayer. After his ordination, he was assigned to a seminary in Turin. There he worked especially against the spirit of Jansenism—an excessive preoccupation with sin and damnation. He used the works of Saint Francis de Sales and Saint Alphonsus Liguori to moderate the rigorism popular at the seminary. Joseph Cafasso recommended membership in the Secular Franciscan Order to priests. He urged devotion to the Blessed Sacrament and encouraged daily Communion. In addition to his teaching duties, Joseph was an excellent preacher, confessor, and retreat master. Noted for his work with condemned prisoners, he helped many of them die at peace with God. Joseph Cafasso urged one of his former pupils—Saint John Bosco—to establish the Salesians congregation to work with the youth of Turin. Joseph died in 1860, and was canonized in 1947. His liturgical feast is celebrated on June 23. Reflection Devotion to the Eucharist gave energy to all Joseph's other activities. Long prayer before the Blessed Sacrament has been characteristic of many Catholics who have lived out the gospel well: Saint Francis, Bishop Fulton Sheen, Cardinal Joseph Bernardin, and Saint Teresa of Calcutta among them.Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Does the Shroud of Turin prove Jesus' resurrection? In this episode, Dr. E tackles one of Christianity's most debated artifacts: the Shroud of Turin. While many believers see the shroud as compelling evidence for Christ's crucifixion and resurrection, Dr. Easley explains why he remains unconvinced that it is Jesus' actual burial cloth. Drawing from biblical theology, church history, archaeology, and first-century Jewish burial practices, Dr. Easley discusses why faith ultimately rests on Scripture—not relics. He explores the dangers of elevating artifacts above God's Word, addresses common arguments for the shroud's authenticity, and explains why the greatest obstacle to belief is not a lack of evidence. Whether you're fascinated by archaeology, apologetics, or the evidence for Christianity, this conversation will challenge you to think carefully about where faith is grounded.

Welcome back to the Alt Goes Mainstream podcast.We went to a mecca of football to film the latest episode. This conversation takes us to Turin, Italy, where we were in the Juventus Creator Lab with Italian football (I mean soccer for the Americans) legend and one of the best defenders of all time Giorgio Chiellini.Giorgio's career and playing style were defined by Juventus' very motto, fino alla fine (“until the end”). It's also a mentality that he brings to every aspect of life on and off the pitch. After an illustrious playing career at one of the world's biggest clubs, Juventus, and a career that also included two World Cup appearances for Italy and winning the Euro 2020 as the Captain of Italy, Giorgio came back home to Turin rejoin the club where he starred for 17 years: Juventus. Giorgio has gone from the pitch to the boardroom, helping to lead Juventus as the Director of Football Strategy. He has brought the player's perspective to the business side of football, balancing the nuances of sports and business.Despite the demands that Giorgio faced on the field as a player to maintain a standard of play at the highest levels of the game, he found time during his career to pursue his passion for business. He received his MBA while playing for Juventus and also was involved in the player development side in his final years as a player at LAFC. More recently, he became an investor in LAFC and in Mercury13, a multi-club investor in women's football teams, including FC Como. He's also an active investor in the European startup community.Giorgio and I had a wide-ranging and fascinating conversation that covered several dimensions of the business of sport. We discussed:How teams, owners, and investors can balance both the sport and business aspects of the game.What it means for sports now that players can have bigger social followings than their clubs or leagues.How Juventus has built and amplified its brand through initiatives like the Creator Lab.How clubs like Juventus can help players build their off-field brand while maintaining a high-quality on-field product.How Giorgio's work off the field while playing informed how he wanted to spend his time post-career in business.What Giorgio's day-to-day is like as Director of Football Strategy for Juventus.Why Giorgio invested in LAFC and what he thinks about the future of the MLS.What American owners and investors can learn from European soccer clubs and owners, and what European clubs and owners can learn from American owners and investors.Thanks, Giorgio, for sharing your wisdom, expertise, and enthusiasm at the intersection of sports and business.Note: this episode was filmed in October 2025 with a plan to publish the conversation around the World Cup.Show Notes00:00 Split Second Decision01:06 A Message from Our Sponsor, Ultimus02:10 Meet Giorgio Chiellini04:17 What Is the Juventus Creator Lab04:36 Building Fans Through Content05:27 Football Brand Goes Global06:15 Revenue From Winning06:43 Two Hearts One Club07:52 Winning Versus Storytelling08:40 Fans Everywhere Now09:27 Too Many Games Problem09:51 Stakeholders and Calendar11:00 Owner Advice Communication11:28 From Kid to Club 14:12 Film Study for Matches15:02 The Saka Tactical Foul17:26 Social Media and Mental Health29:32 US World Cup Reality29:45 Grassroots Long Game30:09 MLS and USL Momentum30:14 Stadiums and Growth30:20 MLS Season vs Playoffs30:46 Supporters Shield Incentives31:11 Travel and Rest Mentality31:33 Europe Stakes Comparison31:54 Highlights Era Question32:24 Bite-Sized Sports Culture33:40 Choosing What to Watch33:55 Sports Must Adapt34:33 Owners Business View35:15 TV Rights and Strategy36:05 Institutional Money Trend36:42 Why Funds Love Sports37:04 Balancing Profit and Emotion38:12 Fiduciary Duty vs Winning39:15 Permanent Capital Advantage40:42 Mission Values Legacy41:54 Juventus DNA and Family44:31 Leadership Lessons Learned45:38 From Captain to Executive47:05 Humanity and Energy48:21 Player to Business Challenges50:00 Investing in Italian Startups51:47 How He Picks Investments52:43 Innovation and AI in Sport53:16 Favorite Alternative Investment54:34 Profitability and Winning55:21 ClosingA Word from Our Sponsor, UltimusThis episode of Alt Goes Mainstream is brought to you by Ultimus, the full-service fund administrator and transfer agent powering asset managers in private and public markets.

This week on Mindrolling, Erica and Raghu have a conversation on: Honoring femininity and presence through the wisdom of modern female spiritual teachersErica's inspiration from her father's spirituality and her year-long monastery stay at 19 years old.Gratitude practice towards the divine mother and our own mothers Considering how the wisdom of women may differ from the wisdom of menThe extraordinary warmth and compassion of Garchen RinpocheMoving away from one-dimensional ways of overcoming conflictEntering into feminine gentleness and finding our power within ourselvesHow transcending the ego can actually become spiritual bypassingBecoming present when we start to doubt the existence of GodCultivating inner peace as our individual contribution to the chaos of the world “I started writing it 3 years ago from a need of meeting living women who dedicate their life to the divine. I really needed in that time of my life, I was going through personal crisis and spiritual crisis, I realized all my teachers had been men. Which, I am very grateful to them, but at that point I started really needing female role models, the examples of women who are today in this world doing the spiritual life." –Erica BassaniAbout Erica Bassani:Erica Bassani is a writer based in Italy. A graduate of the Academy of Storytelling in Turin, she spent a year living in a Theravadan Buddhist monastery at the age of 23. Since then, she has turned to female spiritual teachers from diverse traditions to help her navigate her inner journey. She created the Women Awakening Project—an initiative that highlights the wisdom of female spiritual role models and explores spiritual practice through the lens of women's experiences—to share their wisdom and create a bridge between generations of seekers. Bassani is author of Donne che Esplorano il Divino, co-author (with Massimo Bonomelli) of Va Bene Così, and the Italian translator of The Four Noble Truths of Love by Susan Piver. “Women didn't follow their own way of coming to power. They followed more the masculine way, the patriarchal way of getting to power. This, of course, creates a very weird shift inside. It creates suffering ultimately because of a disconnection with where actually is the source of power in us, especially as women, and possibly for men as well. The source of power can be in the heart, can be more embodied and exclusive, more aware of the different parts of the situation instead of this focused way which cuts out many other things, it's a more gentler way.” –Erica BassaniSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In today's episode of the Atheist Experience, Justin and Scott Dickie celebrate Mother's Day by examining the "bad design" of childbirth and the failed promises of the Bible! They dismantle the myth of messianic prophecies, the forgery of the Shroud of Turin, and the logical gymnastics required to ground reality in a transcendental deity.Isaac in AL argues eyewitnesses and the Shroud of Turin prove Jesus. Justin notes the "500 witnesses" are unnamed, and the shroud is a confessed forgery. They analyze Hebrew text to see if Jesus failed the messianic job description. Will he find a counter?Joel in AZ asks if a perfect God could create imperfection. Scott challenges the vague term "perfection," while Justin notes that if God is good, unnecessary suffering is a contradiction. Does this resolution simply delete the Christian message?Toby in Italy asks how God grounds logic. Scott explains logic is a descriptive tool for reality, not a transcendental entity needing an anchor. They critique Platonism. If logic is just a language, what happens to the transcendental argument?Thank you for joining us this week!

And we start with wild BREAKING DEVELOPMENTS about Lee Gilley's flight to and detention in Turin, Italy as Texas Judge Peebles orders he forfeit his $1M bond.
