Hungary Four - England Kneel - Irreverend Episode 80
Rev Tom Pelham is back in this week's episode joining regular host Rev Jamie Franklin. In an episode packed full of spiritually enlightened cultural wisdom, we ask why the English football team has become so terrible (could it be because they have stopped caring about football and now imagine that the sport is a vehicle for the transmission of their "values"?) and why Hollywood seems so unilaterally incapable of making interesting and entertaining films (with the notable exception of Tom Cruise's latest blockbuster Top Gun: Maverick). We talk Matt Walsh's recent documentary What is a Woman? and move on to discuss recent church news including: Justin Welby and various bishops slam the UK government's plans to send illegal immigrants abroad to seek a better life in Rwanda (but, whoops, they put their public letter on an online newspaper that has a paywall so nobody can read it!) and Pope Francis saying some surprisingly sensible things about Ukraine. In other news, the technocrats want to ban smoking for everybody except octogenarians and Cineworld finds itself caught in the middle of an internecine battle for supremacy between Sunni and Shia Muslims.
We also revisit the empirical plausibility of many of the outlandish claims made by the strange people who classify themselves as transhumanists, talk about how to live meaningfully in a "post-democratic" situation and much much more!
Our Scripture this week is taken from Psalm 131 and raises the question as to whether or not we would find our lives a lot more peaceful if we just stop concerning ourselves with all this stuff.
