Episode two of my podcast, The Current Thing, is out now on audio. My guest is Carl Benjamin AKA Sargon of Akkad, and it is a killer episode.
We talk about:
-Why Carl is no longer a liberal
-Why ‘postmodern traditionalism’ is the way forward
-His Twitter exchange with Peter Hitchens
-The definition of ‘sensible centrism’
-Oh, and the death penalty (before it was even a trending topic!)
I also tried to make Carl become a Christian, and asked him how he is so darn productive while seeming quite chilled out.
Listen to it here.
(Or on your favourite podcast platform, except Apple, who are still dicking about).
Thanks!
Sounds like Carl is a Christian Atheist - one who walks in His footsteps is in fact more truly Christian to me than someone who hides behind the badge of the cross and is not in any way virtuous (Whelby I might be looking at you) even though that they do not know that that believe in got He believes in Carl so yes it is not a paradox to be an Atheist Christian as it works any way around
Excellent podcast. Great way of looking at things, especially what it is to be English!
