This book changed my life and has shaped my marriage. And we're now 15 years and 4 kids in. Learned about TOB when I was about 19 and my wife when she was 11. We're 2nd generation TOB. Thank you Christopher!

[@RangerGrant]

Love and Responsibility was the most difficult book I’ve ever read… and it changed my life. It was the philosophical framework I needed to overcome sexual distortions and begin loving my wife well for the first time in almost a decade of marriage. Thank you all for making this profound and challenging philosophical work accessible to us normies!! 🙏🏼🤟🏼

I’m currently discerning my vocation very seriously and I am loving this series. God is speaking to me very concretely .

[@natalialezquivel]

Same here!

[@gc3563]

Gentleman, you are doing Gods work here and it is much appreciated! God bless ya, and thank you saint JP2 🙏🏻 pray for us!

[@ValerieSEllis]

This series is so good. I feel like I could watch each episode 100 times and still find new wisdom. There’s a lot to take in.

[@gracetoglory5020]

Absolutely fabulous conversation, thankyou so much. I'm going to read the book and also require any suitor to read it too lol

[@annedeline4421]

Hopefully all young people will watch this in their youth so they can make good decision about the mates they choose! Take this to college campuses to tell them what TRUTH is! John Paul 11 was a spearhead in this and many were converted to this TRUTH!

You ignore the fact, not all of us can pretend prophesy & God exist. That is why Jesus Christ says, "Think not I come with peace, but sword". It is amusing to hear the profound arrogance of someone knowing of God, as if He were known outside of fiction. The believer & the literate are separated by the vocabulary of fiction: Blasphemy, God, faith, prayer, prophet, scripture etc. Matthew 17:20 He replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” I like asking believers how they can possibly think their faith is respectable, given Jesus said faith is worthless, since you can't expect obedience when ordering mountains to move? Freud wrote, "The antidote to Christianity is literacy". "Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall". What is The Catholic faith? Organized crime, indoctrinating children with a fantasyland vocabulary? When men are free of religious notions they write, "The antidote to Christianity is literacy." "My sheep hear My voice" is the mindset of slavery. Once free of it, there are no suggestions we all travel better by having one foot in a stranger's fantasyland or Garden of Eden. A mind free of religious text is not tortured by pretending Divinity made Mormons so Christians would know how Jews feel, having pasted their books on to them both. Those looking for the sign of a resurrection, are a vile, "Wicked Generation" seeking signs, led by "wolves in sheep's clothing". "The only sign is that of Jonah"; a believer murdered by other believers. Chained to the slavery of faith, they write: "Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is everyone that hangeth on a tree:" Galatians 3:13 One must be insanely arrogant to suggest knowing something of a God. It is by boldness, Moses became the world's worst navigator, by having one foot in some fantasyland. There is a fine line between fishing & standing on the shore, looking like an idiot. Fail to get the Jews to buy it for 2000 years & they should know who their Messiah is. Jesus is a fake, to immortalize the war against the Jews. Jesus Christ is crucified for all time in literature & the subjects of Rome are illiterate. Freud wrote, "The antidote to Christianity is literacy" & the joke is in the scriptures. "Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:" Galatians 3:13 An improvement on your God & faith; would outlaw indoctrination & abuse of the vocabulary of fiction on children.

I want to watch an equally expert couple of ladies have this conversation so I can see what examples and emphasis they make. How do they differ? What depths do they explore that men might not emphasize?

[@simco7473]

Wow. I just happen to be reading this for the first time right now.

Is episode 3 out?

[@Aikicyoaz]

Wonder if there is anyone who has done those theology of the body catered more towards women?

[@Renee_N]

If only i could have had a marriage with this instead of the train wreck mistake i made by choosing the wrong spouse. Its too late for me so i hope younger people hear what love and marriage can be and not make the mistake i did. Being divorced and never know this type of love is almost as heartbreaking as not being able to be enough in my marriage.

[@Starwarp02]

given how things are with modern women, automation taking our jobs, and inflation I don’t know how well us youngs will fare out

[@mrscharmless]

@Starwarp02 It’s more useful to look within yourself and try to grow in holiness than it is to point at the outside world and complain. It’s very easy for a woman or a man to look at the opposite sex and resentfully think, “they are the problem!”. It takes a more mature person to understand the value of being forgiving and kind, and not counting the wrongs others have committed against you.

[@Starwarp02]

@@mrscharmlessi’ve been screwed over by women, but no where near as bad as others who have lost everything because of a women, kids, home, reputation, career, getting sent to prison. Women have deeply hurt me. but i also see that men can be bad with using girls for seegs and then throwing them away and the girls remain attached to someone who never wanted them. I’ve read a story with the r* word and was truly stomach turning to see it happen from a women’s perspective. Dads not staying, leaving single mothers. I can try to become holier and try to be fair but that doesn’t mean that im going to ignore the reality of the bad side of modern women that i’ve seen happen to me and other as said earlier.

[@martafindlay3601]

I feel for you and your pain, but the point of the whole message of this conversation is not about the “other person, it’s about YOU

Theology of the Body is too poetic. We need a Philosophy of the Body. Define our terms. West never defines anything. He's a borderline sophist.

[@smartismarti4049]

West didn't come up with the title, "Theology of the Body".

[@user-hj8vd2od9h]

@@smartismarti4049 Never said he did.

[@martafindlay3601]

It’s also called “Love and Responsibility”, two virtues that need to be embodied and practiced

I have always found West creepy - a ‘conservative’ version of Cardinal Tucho Fernandez.

[@FigaroHey]

"Usorial"? Does he mean "utilitarian"? Come on, by now he should have a real vocabulary for this topic. Part of why I find him an annoying presenter: a cheap way of presenting serious information, either as a gimmicky showman (trying to be a rock star) or speaking in an uneducated way.

[@Dominique-ql1gr]

Your words are so unkind

[@mrscharmless]

The things people complain about… 🤦‍♀️

[@martinarooney6102]

Dictionaries exist. What a great opportunity to increase knowledge of the English language.

He does define it at around 24 minutes
