In today’s episode of Talk Heathen, Scott Dickie and Christy Powell are joined by guest Steven Harder to dismantle the "lazy" shortcuts of misinformation! From the "sacred cows" of religious psychiatrists to the "primal" urge for Norse mythology, the hosts explore why smart brains cling to comforting fictions. Can we find common ground in objective reality, or are we destined to get lost in the source of our own subjective narratives?
Lisa in Canada asks why rational people suspend logic for faith. Hosts discuss "permission" to ignore science for "sacred cows." They view speaking in tongues as biological dissociation. Can logic ever win against social pressure?
Chloe on TikTok views Norse paganism as an emotional "home." Hosts discuss "delusion as a treat" and using myth for gender dysphoria. They argue feelings are true but don't reflect reality. Can stories replace facts?
Mars on TikTok claims Jesus is the "father of facts." Hosts highlight a contradiction between the account of Elisha and Jesus' words in
John 3:13. Is truth a person or a correspondence to reality? Why choose dogma over logic?
Thank you for joining us this week! We will see you next time!
