Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Political Opposites, Genuine Friends: A Conversation with Cornel West & Robert George
Q: How did you two first meet and begin your collaboration?
They describe a long arc starting with early scholarly interactions and guiding conversations that evolved into over two decades of teaching, writing, and arguing together, built on mutual respect and shared pursuit of truth.
Can AI Imitate the Soul? Where Christians Need to Draw the Line
Q: Would you advise someone to take a deceased relative's emails and put them in a chat bot to communicate?
The guest suggests this would be problematic as it resembles necromancy; it would not truly represent the deceased person, leading to theological issues.
Can AI Imitate the Soul? Where Christians Need to Draw the Line
Q: Should Christians as a rule be opposed to hybrid biological digital beings?
The guest thinks that most Christians would not see an issue with current technologies, like Elon Musk's Neuralink, as they don't endanger the mind or soul.
Can AI Imitate the Soul? Where Christians Need to Draw the Line
Q: How should Christians feel about radically extended life spans, biologically, physically?
The guest believes that radically extended life spans are possible, but also suggests there may be a plateau after a certain point, arguing that it could affect traditional commitments in life like marriage.
Here’s why Christian College students are STRUGGLING
Q: How do you counsel people in a situation like that?
My incredibly important job is to be a witness to that God, which means that there can't be this radical disconnect between who, what I say in class and who I simply am.
