Oh Wretched Man That I Am... The Journey to Redefining Morality

Oh Wretched Man That I Am... The Journey to Redefining Morality

In this week's episode, we discuss the fact that Christian morality is an oxymoron based in illogical fallacies about the pertinence of Jewish laws according to Paul of Tarsus. I do not believe in Christian morality and in fact believe that Christians are historically less moral, because they, like Paul, enjoy pretending that the "sin" or desires of their "flesh" is what makes them commit certain immoral acts rather than investigating their own philosophies and unlearning the toxicity of these beliefs. We also discuss the physical distance of God and how so many of us are taught that God is so far removed from us that we are always looking outside of us for the love, grace, kindness, and mercy that is already within us to bestow upon ourselves first and then others. It is 100% within our power to redefine morality in a way that works for all of us in the spirit of Love and Kindness rather than in the shame and judgement of a vengeful god.
