Hashing out my soteriology position post Pallmann Conversation
In this video, I explain why I am neither Arminian nor Calvinist and what I think the issue between the two is. I also talk about why I think the two positions will never be sufficient to explain God.
Some commentary on a conversation between @CosmicSkeptic and @RationalityRules. I pulled this in because I thought their conclusion very interesting. They are in essence saying that you can do what you want.

In this video, I talk about what Francis Sheaffer saw as the bend of Western Cultural History. Sheaffer seems to posit that God is the grounding of all reality and truth. When we take away God, we lose everything. I agree with him to an extent, but I'm not sure if he's selling himself short as to the actual grounding of God. I want to begin using his ideas in my dialectic more.

These are my thoughts on Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights. This is a phenomenal book. I think it is mostly about how our desires conflict. We pursue an ideal, don't like limitation, and, at times, drain into non-existence. Wuthering Heights is a story about how we ourselves live.

In this video, I talk with Noah Johnson. We talk about fringe things along with epistemological and existential skepticism. I wanted to talk to him because he has a podcast, called "The Seminary Podcast," and is from the same small rural Idaho town as I am.

Do we have to help others to have a meaningful life? What is helping others anyway? Why should we help others or not help others? Is helping others always important? What do people turn help into? Is it selfish to help others? I discuss these questions and others in this video.

Ayn Rand is one of the biggest influences in modern Philosophy. Working off the back of Atheism and the "death of God," Rand created a philosophy to live in the world. With the virtue of selfishness, she believed that the world would be a better place. However, Rand's literature is cheap, her ideas are generic, and her philosophy falls apart under pressure. In this video, we look at why this is the case and also some of the good things about Rand.

In this video, I make a commentary on a video posted by YouTuber Genetically Modified Skeptic. He lists and briefly explains three questions that might make you doubt the existence of God. I try to point out what he is missing.

This video is on the book "Boys in the Boat" by Daniel James Brown. I thought this story portrayed, more than anything, the value and necessity that we are involved in a community of trust.

I got done with Man's Search For Meaning by Viktor Frankl. I forgot to mention this in the video, but everyone should make an effort to read this book. I don't really talk about the book as such here because it's hard to put Frankl's ideas any better than he puts them.
This video, therefore, is mostly on the connections between Viktor Frankl, Jordan Peterson, and Christianity. Not really sure where these ideas will take me, but it's interesting to ponder.
