In this episode, Jared, Michael, and Raymond talk about religion. Immediately, the contrarian (aka Michael) argues that religion is an antiquated description of reality. The religion scholars (Jared and Raymond), of course, push back on this attack. So, let's figure out what religion really is? Why do people dedicate their lives to it? How is one religion different from another? Michael also wants to know how religion is anything but an attempt to describe reality, i.e., like science does. They even discuss cults a little.
