Description
In this episode, Mike wants to talk about the apocalypse or at least apocalyptic literature and thinking. Join the Front Porch Philosophers as they discuss the history, development, and logic of apocalyptic thinking. Mike begins by discussing the nature of time, beginning in Augustinian thinking, and explains how the ideas surrounding time have changed and slowly impacted apocalyptic thinking. Jared gives us a view into the early Christian mindset before turning to the American evangelical mindset, while Raymond draws connections between apocalypse and fatalistic thinking. It's the end of the world...or is it? Join them on the front porch where complex concepts and ideas get discussed casually.  Join The Discussion: Twitter l Patreon l Facebook
