About For God and Country

Your smart, ecumenical take on American politics and Christianity, by and for those who find their orthodox faith ill-fits them for any of the usual political boxes. We're a (kinda) far left Quaker pastor, a (sorta) center left Quaker lawyer, and a (somewhat) crunchy-con Anglican poli-sci prof, all moderated by a (mostly) moderate Catholic laywoman. Come join us!

We Just Can't Stop Talking About Sex

We just can't. Here we talk about the inadequacy of consent as the sole metric of ethical sex, what objectification really is and what its opposite might look like, and more.

Emily Stimpson Chapman and "Letters to Myself From the End of the World."

Rosemary interviews Catholic author Emily Stimpson Chapman, mostly about her most recent book "Letters to Myself From the End of the World," but also about loving books, Catholic faith writ large, why empathy is so controversial, how to wait well, and, perhaps most importantly . . . gin martinis. https://stpaulcenter.com/product/letters-to-myself-from-the-end-of-the-world/ [https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwix3rCz9-nyAhXSmeAKHdHgDIMQFnoECAUQAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fstpaulcenter.com%2Fproduct%2Fletters-to-myself-from-the-end-of-the-world%2F&usg=AOvVaw1k0rDiIvAyX06Qspgy-WGS] Music and sound effects credit: Gustov Holst's Thaxted, as performed by Kevin MacLeod, and "red tailed hawk" (no, it's not an eagle; eagles don't sound like that) as recorded by Craig Smith, both under the Creative Common License. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/legalcode [https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/legalcode] https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Kevin_MacLeod/Classical_Sampler/Thaxted [https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Kevin_MacLeod/Classical_Sampler/Thaxted] https://freesound.org/people/craigsmith/sounds/479610/ [https://freesound.org/people/craigsmith/sounds/479610/] Image credit: https://www.vecteezy.com/holiday-seasonal/61847-grungy-easter-event-flyer-vector [https://www.vecteezy.com/holiday-seasonal/61847-grungy-easter-event-flyer-vector] & https://www.vecteezy.com/vector-art/147260-blue-stars-patriotic-grunge-background [https://www.vecteezy.com/vector-art/147260-blue-stars-patriotic-grunge-background] and our generous graphic designer, Anonymous.

episode Does Technology Favor Totalitarianism? artwork

Does Technology Favor Totalitarianism?

What are the dangers of technology, and is AI likely to cause a dystopian future? Or is the problem our own view of technology, not technology itself? You decide! We are discussing this Atlantic article: https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2018/10/yuval-noah-harari-technology-tyranny/568330/ No, I do not have the screencap of Adria's very sophisticated graph....

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
