Two Dangers: the Contrarian Mind & War Porn

This week David and Curtis start with confession time, each looking closely at the challenges of contrarianism and pride that impact all of us in our modern discourse. They unpack the tricky balance between knowing, certainty, and humility, including the possibility that we might be wrong.  In the second half, they dive into the spiritual challenge of staying attentive to the war in Ukraine without just watching it as a form of perverse entertainment. In another tricky balance, our hosts offer suggestions for staying connected in ways that are less personally destructive and more spiritually healthy.   Show Notes: -French Press: "What the Russian Invasion Teaches us About the Right" -French Press: "Questions and Answers After a Month of War" -Adam Grant: "Think Again: The Power of Knowing What You Don't Know"
