EP265: Is It Time to Abandon Public Schools? I'm Not There. / A CLEAR Illustration on How Wokeness is Religion / Anti-Vax and Pro-Shutdown People Use the Same Logical Fallacy

On This Episode: TWO SOCIAL QUESTIONS: HOW TO EDUCATE OUR KIDS? SHOULD AT LEAST ONE PARENT STAY HOME WITH THE KIDS? (0:00-17:22) Don't blame me. A listener asked me to weigh in on the questions of education and household organization. Many conservatives and Christians are advocating leaving the public school system altogether. My take is mostly that not all schools are the same, so each individual family needs to make their own individual decision -- having the child's spiritual and ethical formation as the top priority. I also use this time to clarify what the "traditional" family structure looked like at home. It's probably not what you think. ROBIN DEANGELGO PERFECTLY ILLUSTRATES THAT WOKENESS IS RELIGION (17:22-25:00ish) The "White Privelege" author recently talked about how she realized she was white. It sounded like someone "sharing their testimony." You have to hear this. IS "HANDING OUT TRACTS" STILL AN EFFECTIVE EVANGELISM METHOD (25ish-33:22) I deeply admire the Christian who specifically spends time on evangelism. I just want to revisit our methods briefly. A TERRIBLE ARGUMENT ON TWO OPPOSING SIDES (32:22-39:10) Pro-shutdown and pro-masking-children people tend to tell you stories and anecdotes about people who get sick or die to make their point. You know who else does that? Anti-Vaccine people. Both are terrible arguments. Data suggests both of their positions are dubious, and if we'll be data-driven instead of emotion-driven, we'll have a better country.
