Christianity Now, parasocial relationships and behavior on social media s2e47 (s5e239)

Trying something new here. I am thinking of making this the “Cogitations” podcast and having our flagship show, Christianity Now, which airs weekly, hosted on pod bean, apple podcast, tune-in radio, and just about everywhere else you might find podcasts. If you would use substack for your podcast listening platform let me know. Or, I suppose the analytics will tell me all I need to know :) Thanks so much, TB Parasocial Relationships was a phenomenon that was first documented in relation to fans of celebrities or public figures. It now describes the relationship between people who only know one another online. We seem to be losing our grip on reality through the engineering of social media and as a result pathological narcissistic behavior has become the norm and even defended in come cases. In this podcast I hope to show a microcosm of this through my interactions with a couple of people of the last couple of days. I hope I say something that encourages and edifies you.Here is the article about parasocial relationships:   https://www.forbes.com/health/dating/parasocial-relationships/#:~:text=Parasocial%20relationships%20are%20not%20inherently,%2Dbeing%2C”%20she%20adds.Be sure to follow us on "X" formerly known as Twitter: https://twitter.com/1Chronicles1232If you want to support the show monthly, www.patreon.com/christianitynowYou can do a one time donation throughwww.buymeacoffee.com/christianitynowYou can also PayPal: [email protected] sure to subscribe to the YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ChristianityNowStreams#christianitynow #parasocial #socialmediapoision #christianitytoday #faithful #christianpodcast #christianlivestream This is a public episode.
