#59: Rejecting the Default

Update: 2021-03-04

Description

Life is full of defaults. Many of them are so entrenched they are hard to even recognize as optional. "Few, indeed, ever stop to ask themselves in retrospect how they came to accept the beliefs that have found lodgment in their minds," the late Mr. Herbert Armstrong observed this in his book Mystery of the Ages. This episode takes a look at some of the defaults of life, and why we are prone to leave them unquestioned.
