THE WEAPONIZATION OF BELIEF

from THE UNSIDED PODCAST · host Kristofer McNeeley

If ever there were a time for us to put aside our preconceived notions about others and truly think critically, that time is now.  Through the mediums of social media and the 24 hour news cycle, the weaponizing of belief systems to divide us and to shut down connective conversations is more prevalent and persuasive than ever.  If you've ever listened to an episode of this podcast you will know not to expect a takedown of any particular ideology or subject and this conversation will be no different.  So if you've come here for any other reason than to better understand how to listen and speak with grace about the seeds of division being sewn amongst people all over the world, I would kindly ask you to find something else to do with your time.  But if you want to challenge yourself to look for understanding across religious or political belief systems and look for the intersections of our shared humanity, please stay and join the conversation.  Still here?  Ok good - let's get into it...Have a conversation you’d like us to explore?
