What Ideas Are Shaping Our Culture? Answering Questions About Postmodernism, Panpsychism, and Enchantment – Episode 51

In our first-ever question-and-response episode, Stan and JP engage with listener questions about postmodernism, panpsychism, and enchantment.

In this podcast we discuss:

• How can adopting a broader, more holistic sacramental theology help us to understand the nature of reality?
• What is panpsychism, and why does the “Combination Problem” make it implausible? How is it incompatible with the Christian worldview?
• Can we understand our world as “enchanted” without slipping into panpsychism?
• Are we culturally post-Postmodern?
• Why is this moment in the history of ideas such a crucial one for Christians to offer a better answer?
