Catholic vs. Protestant – 2019-01-12 – Flat Earth Runner

Flat Earth Runner left a comment on my YouTube channel with a link to one of his comedy roasts. I immediately asked him to be my guest and he agreed. As you might have guessed from his name, Flat Earth Runner believes that the Earth is flat. He is also a self-taught non-denominational Christian. I enjoyed meeting him.

Catholic vs. Other – 2019-01-12 – Lincoln Cannon

Eric Steinhart suggested that I interview Lincoln Cannon. Lincoln is an LDS Mormon and a Transhumanist, meaning that he is interested in ethical ways of using science, engineering, and technology to advance the human race beyond our present limitations. I enjoyed our friendly chat.

Catholic vs. Protestant – 2019-01-26 – Post Mortem

I never expected a self-proclaimed Christian, much less one who has experience debating, to hang up on me mid conversation; but that’s what happened when I asked this guy why he rejects the doctrine of the Real Presence.

Catholic vs. Other – 2018-12-27 – Eric Steinhart

Eric Steinhart is a philosopher of religion specializing in new and emerging religions. Eric comes from a long line of evangelical congregationalist preachers. He no longer identifies as Christian, but does not see much value in the label atheist either. It was a fun chat.
