Jesus God dang Christ. I'm 23 minutes into this podcast and I still have no freaking clue what the guests teaches or believes about Paul and how it's different from anything else. Why do I have to wait 30 minutes before I can get some meat and potatoes out of this freaking episode! geez

I'm not listening to this one. The description itself seems a bit gaslight-ish. It's not "white Christianity" to think the Bible is inerrant and infallible. That's been the standard view for thousands of years for the OT and several hundred for the NT. I don't need to hear some BS political woke social justice false equivalency academic hot take.

This podcast is a bright spot in my world. I'm a factory worker and crave a certain intellectual engagement. Your podcast helps me manage the doldrums.

women's hair is equivalent to testicles. greek medicine. that's why genesis 6 applies to the "because of the angels" part of the passage.
