I look at an article/essay from atheists.org to assess the claims that you can have morality without a God or gods. This is where the rub is. You can tear down the temple, but can you build it back in three days?
This recitation was given April 23, 2021.
A section of Shakespeare’s Hamlet which I memorized. This is Act V, Scene 1, Lines 1-63
Thanks to Rik for improving the audio.

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.

This week we will look into how China is using its power to control American Bibles. This is an interesting development coming out of China and something that those in the United States should be aware of.

In this video, I talk with Noah Shaffmaster, my friend from the basketball team. This was my first in-person conversation that I’ve recorded and posted. In it, we go and talk about everything from cults to Christianity. Noah and I have had a few deep in-person conversations, so this one more or less builds off of some of those. I’ve been trying to understand what Noah thinks about God and religion and this conversation was very helpful in that.

Here's are some of my thoughts on the prologue (if you can call it that) to Hesiod's Theogony. To what extent is Hesiod talking about Jesus Christ? What is the role of truth in Christian salvation? What is the relationship between dancing and singing? This prologue is very tightly packed when reading it as a Christian. I barely scratched the surface.

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.

Notes from "Cosette" in Victor Hugo's Les Misérables
This is episode 33 of my podcast.
This is the second part of Les Miserables. Aside from other things, I talk about truth, types of worlds, the nature of justice, the nature of being, the ways in which evil and good connect, and more. This book is fascinating. I'm trying to sort out a lot of things here and am thinking out loud. Welcome aboard.

In this series of episodes, we will be looking at French Philosopher Rene Descartes' ideas. This series will work through his work "Discourse on the Method." I will attempt to both summarize and build on Descartes' work and defend some of his more contentious beliefs.
