Ep 105: Where’s My Joy!_m4a

Ep 107: Is There a Balance?

If you do bad can it be fixed by doing good? Is there a ying and yang at work? Chris and Pete run into the logic of the balance of good an evil, how can I make up for things, and find that maybe they have it all wrong. So what is balance, can we make it make sense? Is fighting for balance a fallacy? Do we accidentally fail? Is this idea of balance rubbish. And if so, why? Is it possible we have got a wrong idea about sin and wrong?

Ep 105: Where’s My Joy!_m4a

Chris and Pete delve into the writings of Dom Paul DeLatte from 1902 to see if this old mouldy stuff has anything to tell us today. Is it our duty to be joyful? And is that Happy? Was it different back then and have we lost the discipline of Joy. What about people who fast, is that joyful? Why don’t kids need to be told to play joyfully? And can we be disciplined to life with joy?

Ep 104: What Are Saatchi’s Commandments_m4a

Advertising and Art guru Charles Saatchi has a go at the ten commandments… Chris and Pete wonder if he might be onto something. Is the ten commandments an outdated thing? How do we live now that makes them ignorable? Are we better now and no longer need these ‘rules’? And what has advertising done to us? How are we shaped by desire for things they sell us? What do those ten commandments mean today?

Ep 106: What Have We Dug Up_m4a

Chris and Pete get out the archaeology tools and look at what it says about the very old and strange book, the bible. Is archaeology a support of faith or of religion, and should we trust archaeology more than faith, bible or logic? Can we see through one to find truth in the other? Faith or Archaeology? Is science good at discovering stuff we need to know? If findings of science show stories in the bible to be false, should we throw one of them out, and does it matter? Can we care less?

Ep 103: Who Took The Ice Cream?

It sure looks like God just set up people to fail! We can’t be good enough, so we’ll always fail. But Chris and Pete ask why it looks like that. Why does the bible seem full of us failing? Is it really like that? What does that tree in the garden ACTUALLY mean? And how can we ‘feast’ from it? Will we take the marshmallows? And why don’t we just enjoy the ice cream?
