The Epidemic of Schizognosticism (EP. 123)

Ep. 123 dissects “schizognosticism”—the reflex to reject all institutions—and argues for rigorous discernment over absolutist contrarianism. Linking replication-crisis angst, flat-earth rabbit holes, and neo-Gnostic despair to left/right-brain imbalance, it calls for rebuilding trustworthy tradition, leveraging science/tech, and crafting a coherent, pro-human school of thought grounded in objective truth and Christian hope. Keywords: institutions, rejectionism, Gnosticism, left/right brain (McGilchrist), Enlightenment, epistemology, science, tradition, power.
