As Americans leave organized religion, the moral & emotional needs once met by faith communities remain. Is there a danger in leaving faith, or can we adapt its wisdom to meet our needs today? My discussion with Krista Tippet, Father Greg Boyle, & Rabbi Shira Stutman www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJAJ...

Loneliness is on the rise. That's not news. But maybe part of the reason is: we're no longer sure what it means to be a good friend or lack tools to make it happen. I talk with Sam...

Episode preview here. We take a deep dive into why many men are feeling lost, why some are turning to Christianity for answers, and the benefits & dangers that can follow depending on the messages they receive. Great insights from Richard Reeves, @drmoore.bsky.social & Rasool Berry @aibm.bsky.social
I completely understand having some concern about profit motives in Big Pharma & Big Ag/Food, but when it makes you cynical about medical science in general, it can go bad fast. And among some in this community, it turns into conspiracy. Devout Christian Francis Collins has it right. RFK is wrong 🧵
This week on How God Works, we explore friendship. Right now, that includes implications of AI chatbot friends. While people report feeling more heard & valued by chatbots, that’s not what makes for a good friend philosopher Samuel Kimbriel (and Aristotle) note. www.howgodworks.org/podcast/seas...
You never know where you'll find faith. For David Brooks, the realization that people had souls hit on the subway. On this week's episode, I talk with David about his journey, what he thinks religion is for, and what role, if any, science has to play. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...
The idea that everything in the world has some form of consciousness might seem like an ancient fairy tale. But it's making a serious comeback. I talk with Philip Goff and Joanna Leidenhag about why we should take it seriously & its links to world religions. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...
Prayer is common to every faith. It's so central to life that many people pray even when they're not sure who or what they're praying to. But what does prayer do for us? We explore the neuroscience & meaning of prayer with Dr. Andrew Newberg & Rabbi Shira Stuntman. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...
Whether it's the rushing around, stress, or loneliness, the holidays can be hard. But there's a way to find joy, peace, and connection in the traditional celebrations, IF you do them right. Join @lauriesantos.bsky.social & me as we unpack that wisdom. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h... @prx.org
Sam Altman is building "a magic intelligence in the sky." Buddhists & Catholics are praying with humanoid robots. And clergy are letting AI write sermons. What does this all mean for the future of religion and who (or what) will be guiding it? We took a look: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h... 🧵
When instances of @AnthropicAI Claude converse with each other, they often enter a "spiritual bliss attractor state" where they start opining on spiritual questions. Does that mean Claude has a spiritual yearning? @paulbloomatyale.bsky.social atyale offers me a different take. Link in next post.
Here we look at the role religion can play in helping men through this crisis, why some young men are turning to faith, and the dangers that can result if the version of religion they get from influencers like Peterson is inaccurate. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h... @davidfrenchjag.bsky.social
You care about landfill but what does that look like when building? Waste minimization is linked to planning, choice and accountability. Have you thought about landfill in the context of your build? #architecture #smarthomes

🗣️ @marenmorris.bsky.social : “All these college commencement speakers reveling in the future of A.I., and the students rightfully booing them — how disrespectful to these students that have worked so hard… stop trying to make ‘A.I. is cool’ happen.”

Human caused climate change is almost assuredly involved in this off-charts heat and, at the same time, I’m happy we settled in Downeast Maine four years ago. Today’s spring snow (although deer ticks were on the move a couple days ago as well)
Marine Israélienne Le système « Diamant » transforme un navire de guerre en une véritable flotte. Au lieu de s'appuyer sur un seul bâtiment imposant, Israël déploie à ses côtés des vedettes d'attaque sans équipage, armées de missiles, de drones et de systèmes de défense aérienne.

This indie developer is making a title inspired by the PS1/GBA/DS era of Castlevania games, so I guess "Metroidvania" wouldn't exactly be the right thing to call it, right? It's called Magnavale: Eternal Soul, will you play this?

DHS landed an ICE deportation flight in NH during a blizzard with 15 minutes’ notice — then left detainees shackled in the plane on the tarmac for nearly 14 hours. This was reckless and inhumane -- DHS and Omni need to be held accountable.

Top-down housing targets are placing tremendous pressure on our communities and green spaces, while driving developments that are not fit for purpose and lack the infrastructure local people need. I have been raising the alarm in Westminster to stop this top-down approach!
