Fallen Ape-Theist and Puritan Panda Have a Conversation - 063

What happens when a Puritan Panda and a Fallen Ape-Theist sit down to discuss truth, morality, and the meaning of Christianity?

Brian, better known online as Puritan Panda, joins Richard, the Fallen Ape-Theist, for a thoughtful and surprisingly agreeable conversation about whether knowledge must be subordinated to something greater, whether truth can be separated from love, and whether objective morality requires God.

Along the way, they discuss competing religious visions, Christian hope, human behavior, propaganda, political and religious tribalism, the danger of placing loyalty to leaders above moral principles, and why both Christians and atheists can become trapped within networks that protect bad behavior. They also wrestle with religious disagreement, the failures of Christian institutions, the meaning of faith, and what evidence might cause either of them to reconsider their beliefs.

This is not a formal debate. It is an honest conversation between people who profoundly disagree, frequently find unexpected common ground, and attempt to understand what the other person actually believes.
