self deceit

In this episode, Dr. Erin Boyce (aka "The Other Dr. Boyce") joins me to talk about what's going on in the world. We discuss the frequency of mass shootings, the current state of social media, and we draw some lines between current social climates and the war on drugs. 

We also talk about Capitalistic systems and spaces that violate the rules—like this podcast. We discuss the ongoing January 6th hearings and the insurrection that spurred them, mass shootings, social media, the art of self-deception, political polarization, long term issues related to the COVID lockdowns, atheism, the idea of community in the digital era, and (hopefully) we will explain why these things are all related. 

I once observed a man--A Christian man!--desperately trying to gain approval from work colleagues, and it got me thinking about the breadth of God's salvation. Is there a heaven, a kind of heaven, that God wants for us today?
