In the latest episode of The Secret Teachings with Ryan Gable, we delve into the complex landscape of religious conflict around the globe. This episode encourages listeners to critically examine the multifaceted role of religion as an institution, a political weapon, and even an excuse for tribal warfare.
Exploring the universal principles of religion from various cultures, including India, the Middle East, Asia, and the Americas, we reveal how sophisticated philosophical wisdom was often more prevalent in ancient societies compared to our modern age. The discussion highlights the significant choices between religion, atheism, spirituality, and agnosticism, all of which seek to address profound questions surrounding the purpose of life, God, faith, heaven, and hell.
As science emerges as a formidable voice suggesting a lack of purpose in life, we uncover the irony that those who deny meaning are often those most invested in establishing connections with their own deities for power and influence. Ryan's insightful analysis reminds us: “We shouldn’t throw Baby Jesus out with the Bath Water.”
