Science is like Adam looking at the apple and asking himself as he studies it, how is it that this will cause my death. Searching for the answer within the apple. The "apple" is irrelevant.

~ Birbalsingh schooling is fine for normal children who want to learn academia. This type of schooling for the child who is an artist or sensitive in nature warps their outcome and delays their genius. We don't all fit in an egg carton. Unlearning or unschooling is best for the child that is their own.

Regarding not being able to prove God exists.. im not disagreeing with Jonathan, but also God sometimes performs signs and miracles on earth just to prove He exists.

Being "somewhere in the economic left and the cultural right" is such a typical female thing to say. You know what adults call that? Wanting all the privileges and none of the responsibility. The way she talks about the playboy guy, as if he was a predator of some sort. Maximizing every rhetorical resource to paint a picture that removes every single drop of agency, willingness and ownership from the women involved, yeah that's what society needs. Let's demonize an entire group of sexually liberal men to reinstate something most women don't even want. She talks as if there weren't statistics dating back to the early 1900s that demonstrate women were extremely unhappy with that societal arrangement. She speaks about the sacredness of marriage as if we weren't living in Postmodern times, precisely characterized by the loss of hegemony all these great narratives had over society. As if even before the beginning of the 1900s one of the most relevant intellectuals in Western history hadn't already observed that "God is dead". She speaks as if most Christian sects hadn't already lost their own identity, by admission of thousands of religious leaders themselves. Ever since I was a kid I've been hearing about this revival that is promised in the Bible, only to see plenty of failed attempts. I have been in front of pastors saying that even if God wasn't real, they wouldn't stop believing ever. She terribly underestimates the times we live in. If she only took the time listen to MRAs, she would save herself all this time pretending society could create incentives for women to return to perpetual monogamy. Does she even understand hypergamy? As a woman, is she even aware of how much women dislike sleeping with men they don't genuinely desire?? This is the pivotal topic on all of this. Women's choices are: (1) going for the relative high status males in their circles, (2) staying single or (3) settling down with men they don't desire aka not-high-enough-status men. You can listen to William Costello on these last types of relationships, because guess what happens when the status dynamic is inverted: women cheat more and men become more defensive of their relationships. You have to understand Louise is making a moral argument that relies on making a sales pitch to women about their safety, fulfillment and whatever else, while absolutely covering up the FACT that for perpetual monogamy to be the norm, you will need: 1. The suppression of female hypergamous mate selection. 2. The enforcement of marriages where women are bound for life with men they do not desire. Her argument is what happens when you cherry pick data between two conflicting fields of research on human societies: Evolutionary Psychology and All the social constructionist fields. It does not work because it is plagued with incongruencies. Blonde thinks men should be okay with a life of involuntary celibacy without experience any deterioration to their mental health and becoming disenfranchised criminals. I can't blame her since Louise absolutely glosses over the reasons societies with extreme unequal sexual distribution are that violent. What an obnoxious gynocentric view. Every time women complain about men not understanding their experience, share this link with them. Women aren't only ignorant to the male experience, they already hate it anyways.

Interesting "Christianity is well documented" indeed so. Is the gospel narrative and the actual personage of Jesus well documented? Is it necessary that one has to believe that it is "Actual" and fully "Factual"? I wonder.

"Let us raise a standard to which the wise and honest can repair; the rest is in the hands of God." George Washington

God is irresponsible with his gifts, casually tossing so much gold before swine and insisting that we are not swine.The devil tempts that he may ruin; God tests that he may crown

Sometimes it may feel 'cozy' inside yourself, to want the tradition and homogeneity of a Christian hegemony. But never forget the same problems that plague secular 'isms', are several levels of torment worse when people are filled, with 'unchallenged' religious conviction. It has been quite a while now... since Christianity, was declawed in the West. That cozy feeling of a return, might arouse warm nostalgic emotions in you. But humans 'blessed from above' ...ordained with, supreme power here on earth... is a recipe, for a return to the darkest of dark ages and a violent reign, of death and righteous inhumanity. Use it personally if you must, but don't wish for it to control your society. Let Christianity sleep... and only in your dreams let it breathe. Only there, wish it were a pure panacea and not the reality, ...of being just another incredibly dangerous weapon. To be so easily wielded by charismatic, yet extremely dangerous people.

46.00 We are all praying to the same God, - straight from the Bahá'i principles and one of the main reasons I became a Bahá'i. 'Every human creature is the servant of God. All have been created and reared by the power and favor of God; all have been blessed with the bounties of the same Sun of divine truth; all have quaffed from the fountain of the infinite mercy of God; and all in His estimation and love are equal as servants. He is beneficent and kind to all. Abdu'l-Baha

Another fascinating podcast well done everyone however at 36.45 the idea of self scrutiny comes up and I was instantly reminded of this quote from the Bahá'i writings: 'Bring thyself to account each day ere thou art summoned to a reckoning; for death, unheralded, shall come upon thee and thou shalt be called to give account for thy deeds.' Bahá’u’lláh, The Arabic Hidden Words 31

This is a great idea for a podcast. I look forward to listening to more episodes. Any chance you can reach beyond Christianity and include entertainers of different faith groups, let's say Omid Jalili who is a Bahá'i?

I love Milton Jones comedy heater very talented entertainer. Also, his philosophy and faith are to be admired. Can I add to his analogy of an afterlife being the next stage in a school process? I believe it will be more than that: The world beyond is as different from this world as this world is different from that of the child while still in the womb of its mother. - Bahá'u'lláh

She was extremely unprofessional and at times plain rude to JP. Yes, he exposed her on various topics but it was above all really sad to see her far left ideological high minded judgment of him, his thinking, his book and even his diet. That constant judgement is wrecking society, not saving it. And her own ideology has backfired in the TERF debacle. Can’t please everyone all the time and upping the societal temperature with these cancel culture arguments only pushes us all closer to cliff edge. It’s not funny. It’s disastrous

We're not that exceptional to be an only exception

Loved this!!! Thank you!

So good to hear this success story. Keep up the good work.

Extremally infesting how little the world of KZbin haven't watched this podcast. They scheme but never learn. So very happy to follow your work Katharine. Always know the sane people love what you have proved works day after day. Also smile at reflection every morning you brush your hair. God bless.

I read frank’s autobiography years ago and really liked it. I knew he was Catholic, I was raised Catholic too however I don’t think I believe any more. It’s interesting how he has managed to keep his faith and belief in a secular world and he must be in a tiny minority so kudos to him.

These were IMHO 3 very posh people who agreed on absolutely everything for 1 hour. When people agree on absolutely every single point for that long, it is not a real honest conversation or at least not a really enriching one, but just an exercise in agreeableness. When all participants are from a very particular socioeconomic class, then it is an opportunity lost to engage with someone from another socioeconomic background.

Its nothing do with any any different interpretations of Christianity when the bible itself lays down the template for extreme hate for which Jesus is just PR man and nothing else. Dr Suzannah Lipscomb should be deslaving herself from this evil cult which also is not indigenous to the UK and return back to her pagan roots of the country .

Just tuned in to watch Catherine, and while being a Christian myself, I concluded that the non-Christian was a non-racist and the Christian interviewers are absolute leftist racist!

13:40 “conservatives will be cancelled”..leftythinkers, “you’re not cancelled, you’re accountable”..”you have free speech, even it the price is your job”

I just discovered her and love her. The voice of reason!

I have been trying to have this conversation in my circles for a few years. Thank you all for this VITAL conversation. Until we DETANGLE our faith from the cultural programming of our day, we will not live truly FREE in the Gospel. Thank you, Karen. Thank you S&US

On the abortion issue and how evangelicals respond to the issue of women seeking/wanting an abortion. How should we respond to someone who says I want to kill my child, is that Ok with you? Imagine someone says my 4 year old is driving me nuts and I am going to kill my child, is that OK with you? Would we express compassion and connection with someone who commits premeditated murder? I would like a dialogue on this issue, to me it is that B&W?

Better theology. Being spirit full is necessary but not sufficient.

Karen Swallow Prior is a vicious slanderer and enemy of the church. I have no idea why the guys behind this channel platformed her after what she did to Tom Buck. She is unregenerate and in grave need of repentance.

Can evangelicalism free itself from the transactional Christ, whose death saves us from our sin and consequent damnation (but only if we so believe), which would also entail freedom from biblical literalism (given that certain biblical passages support the transactional Christ)? IMHO, such religious overbeliefs, to borrow William James' wonderful word, are dead in the water of Western civilization; indeed, seem to most, even most theists, as not only false but silly. Ironically, the only form of Protestantism that might have a future would seem to be the old liberal, free-thinking mainline church, focused on following the teachings--the model--of the historical Jesus as an avenue toward God--a form of faith which nourished me so deeply and beautifully yet died during my lifetime for largely cultural reasons...only to rise again? The key is recognizing the Bible as human words, however inspired, about God, as opposed to God's words directly spoken to humans.

Just listened to this video for the 10th time and heard Johnathan talk about the resurrection for the 10th time. I think I've final got there. The results that work and are good and last, do not have to have a beginning that can be explained. Seeing that the results are good and the meaning that made them so, is all that really matters. Was jesus real? Yes. Did he bring meaning and a way to fix things that were broken? Yes. Is jesus still in the world? Yes. Is he still available to you? Yes!

pretty brave to still go out there on the web, five years after being intellectually destroyed and yet still behaving like a monkey..

Another person espousing Christian principles while denying God.

Great discussion. Thanks for your insights!

This is such a good episode, thank you. About 27 minutes in the question is asked about the actual reality of the resurrection. If we take 'as above, so below' seriously, we have our inner, emotional aspect we can feel, we have the outer, active physical presence, and we have the actions and the wake of those actions in reality. We are raised with attention focused on our needs and wants, maturity inverts that habit of attention to a selfless mindset (that's the idea anyway). So one can take just the symbols of a former way of selfish thinking being transmuted through love and exposure to reality into a more loving, service centered mindset. But if we consider trust and larger patterns of reality, it is no leap to trust that the reality of the human journey was manifested to us as a mirror to be held up. Just get on that level is what I'm saying guys. Love you!

I notice Justin always has the "nice atheist/agnostics" on. You know people who won't push back too much.

Franz Overbeck, the Basel old master of irrefutable Bible and Christianity criticism, sarcastically commented: Christianity could atone for its "endeavor to convince the world of God's love" "only with atheism".9 Kahl, Joachim.

50:32 "why is Peter Cook in hell?" What does it say about us that we assume he's there against his will? What assessment are we making about ourselves when assume people wouldn't sometimes prefer it? Surely people would never prefer it. How sure are we of this? How twisted would one have to be to prefer hell over living with God forever? Is this conceivable?

She keeps calling herself a black woman. I never noticed her blackness until she pointed it out, and really I still don't see it. Anyway, I like her ideas for the most part.

This is timely. I’ve fully grasped how sex affected me and thankfully, thru discipline, casual sex is still something I abhor to have sexually. Calling it casual even feels dismissive to the contrasting importance I place on have healthy sex. First exposure to this podcast and I’m grateful.

🎉

I was wrong, she didn't learn anything.

This channel is distinguished by its high production quality, the professionalism of its hosts, and the appeal of its interviewees. I'm surprised it doesn't have hundreds of thousands of subs.

Came to hear from Milton. Left when you started with the Christianity nonsense.

I don’t think it matters. It really doesn’t. That’s the key to living in peace. Nothing matters.

Living on a hill in a tent for 4 years ! Heck. How do you wash your clothes or toilet etc ?

I am envious of those with strong religious beliefs but I can’t feel a spiritual connection, how does someone believe and feel a connection?

I would ask after reading the comments that we would show the humility that we see in Christ. Ben is a seeker after rhe Truth; that truth as in Christ. If we read closely the Gospels one fines Truth is not the drawing of a smaller circle but widening of it.

BRILLANT INTERVIEW✅✅✅✅✅

😄Good day from GOONELLABAH, NSW!🌏 Milton has been a favourite comedian. Exciting news: in 227 sleeps, I'll embark on a six-month journey to circumnavigate Australia in two CYBERTRUCKs and a Tesla Semi, covering 22,000 kilometres and ending in February 2025. 🤗Cheers, Ian Cleland

Genesis 1 is Lucifer and the fallen angels. They made man in their image. Man is an idol, a trap to hunt angels. Only one Gospel: The Gospel of Reconciliation. Jesus Christ came into THEIR kingdom to reconcile fallen angels unto Himself. We are the fallen angels (ELOHIM) kept in DNA chains of darkness. If you do not confess being a fallen angel in Lucifer's kingdom, then you are an unbeliever. Unbeliever = those that claim to be made in the image of ELOHIM(gods). REPENT FALLEN ANGELS.
