Part 4, Eps. 22: Power, Obligation, and Communal Accountability

Our continuation of our Four Part Series of Episode 22: Care for Others, Charity or Commandment? It may be challenging to think about this, but when can I be relieved of these onerous responsibilities? The idea of power and care. Not necessarily political power but inside our communities. Our responsibilities are different based on our social location. What are the practicalities of how we should act? Those with power can offer comprehensive help yet people with power do not wish to offer help to others. We enjoy the privilege of ‘Look at me I can give stuff away’. How do we give up some of our space in order to allow space for others? Rabbi Klein says there should be no blanket pass even if you are in dire straits. All must contribute something to others. There is always something we can do to repair the world in some way. Raman Singh says that we should not be judging others but simply living up to our own responsibilities. Are we hiding our faith values? Music by BenSound.com

Part 3, Eps. 22: Ethical Ideals and Human Limitation

Our continuation of our Four Part Series of Episode 22: Care for Others, Charity or Commandment? The difficulty to be faithful to our Faith Commitments What is wrong with you? Have you lost the entire point of this?  Our panelists talk about the difficulty of being faithful to our ethical commitments. Do we judge others more harshly than we judge ourselves? Dr. Hibbard points out that part of why Nietche rejected Christianity was that he found that Christianity was too difficult to live up to for him. A commitment to the Divine commandments cannot necessarily be easy, while at the same time we must also keep in mind our personal human needs. Dr. Hibbard says that Christians are in tension with the most challenging demands of the Christian ethic and at the same time we need to keep in mind what human flourishing requires. Ethical ideals are always somewhat unattainable. Rabbi Klein responds to that tension by pointing out that If your faith commitment only makes you feel good about yourself, then what good is that to anybody else? Raman Singh helps the panel look at the selfless serving of the langar meal by Sikhs and they consider what this can teach all of us? Music by BenSound.com Music by BenSound.com
