    631: Goliath's Blade

    631: Goliath's Blade
    In Episode 631: Goliath's Blade, Tony, Joel, and Juan dive into the iconic biblical narrative of David and Goliath, casting a unique lens on the story's connection to ancient technologies and supernatural phenomena. They kick off their exploration by discussing how Goliath was a Nephilim, thereby introducing a blend of mystical theories into the biblical story. The trio examines the weaponry described in the story, highlighting the peculiar characteristics of David's sling and stones, alongside the formidable sword wielded by Goliath. Their discussion suggests that these ancient weapons may not have been ordinary tools of war but were instead imbued with advanced technological features or magical properties. Throughout the episode, the conversation expands to encompass broader themes, suggesting that the David and Goliath story could be a symbolic narrative encoding profound knowledge about ancient civilizations' expertise in technology. Tony, Joel, and Juan encourage the audience to look at the Bible not only as a religious text but as a treasure trove of insights into the universe, faith, and the technological prowess of bygone eras.

    Ep 824 | 'Shiny, Happy People': The Real Problems with Duggar Theology

    Ep 824 | 'Shiny, Happy People': The Real Problems with Duggar Theology
    Today we're talking all about the Amazon Prime documentary "Shiny, Happy People," which focuses on the Duggar family and the greater theology behind their beliefs (Bill Gothard's Institute in Basic Life Principles). The IBLP and Gothard have been accused of legalism, double standards, and abuse within their doctrine. We start off with some issues the documentary presents as big problems within Duggar/IBLP theology, which include wives submitting to husbands, gender roles, and modesty, among others. We also share the problems we see with their theology, but discuss how many things like submission and gender roles themselves are actually biblical – the IBLP has just misconstrued, misinterpreted, and misapplied these Biblical commands to create a legalistic, graceless, gospel-less framework that oppresses and represses its adherents rather than setting them free. We share some of the shocking revelations from the documentary series and explain the frustrating angle the filmmakers took in conflating IBLP and fundamentalism with true gospel principles and beliefs. --- Timecodes: (01:19) Intro / Father's Day (13:20) Breakdown of IBLP beliefs (16:50) Duggar doc intro (21:20) Problems with Duggar/IBLP theology from documentary perspective (23:37) Problems with Duggar/IBLP theology from biblical perspective (45:11) Josh Duggar's sentence & Du (48:46) Credibility & criticisms of the doc (57:29) "World domination" & children as arrows (01:02:13) Differentiation of fundamentalism & true Christianity (01:06:21) Interesting parts from the documentary (01:12:11) C.S.

    Ep. 289 - Why Stay In A Country You Hate?

    Ep. 289 - Why Stay In A Country You Hate?

    Today on the show, Colin Kaepernick is offended by the flag. He thinks it stands for racism and slavery. At what point does he just leave the country for one that is not so racist and terrible? Also, a congresswoman says it should be illegal to make fun of politicians. And some people online are pointing out that Kamala Harris isn’t African American. It is racist to make this observation, apparently. Date: 07-03-2019

    Ep. 240 - The Case Against Ugly Churches

    Ep. 240 - The Case Against Ugly Churches

    It is a great tragedy that the Notre Dame cathedral burned yesterday. But what is it about that church, and those like it, that we find so awe inspiring? And why don’t we build churches of that sort anymore? Today I want to talk about the need for beauty in the church, and why we should start building beautiful churches again. Also, I’m going to defend someone I don’t usually defend. And I’ll answer your emails, including one about the rapture. Date: 04-16-2019

    Ep. 221 - Beto Comes Out For Third Trimester Abortions

    Ep. 221 - Beto Comes Out For Third Trimester Abortions

    Today on the show, Elizabeth Warren shares her favorite Bible verse. The only problem is that her positions — especially on abortion— completely contradict that verse. Also, Beto comes out for third trimester abortion, which is a required position in the Democrat Party now. Also, a child is groped by a TSA agent. Finally, a kid is accosted by liberals after wearing a MAGA hat to a vigil for the mosque shooting victims. Some conservatives are treating him like a martyr. Personally, I’m tired of the attention seeking trolling on both sides. Date: 03-20-2019
