This episode marks the end of the faith series with David Suarez. We finally breach the topic of evolution - macro and micro - and how it relates to the christian argument against sex trafficking. Additionally, we discuss the question of instructions and direction of cells which brought us somewhere I did not expect: purpose vs. direction. Where so we find purpose? Is this a trendy word in modern culture that's getting conveniently conflated with direction? Though David's resolve is controversial, there might be more freedom within it to be curious and more security to move with less resistance where life takes you. From there we take it to consenting sex play and objectification, and why it's important for that consent to be honest. We end this series with some self reflection. Thank you, David, for an amazing four weeks!

David is back for the third episode in his faith series, and we clearly need more than four episodes. You can hear me working out a lot of ideas and opinions and thoughts in this episode. That means we didn't really even scratch the surface of the topics we were supposed to get to.  We get into why sex trafficking is the strongest argument against non-monogamy as per other world view systems, moral development in relationship to holy books, and the paradox of meditation apps. I love when David says “I reject that.” This will surely be integrated into my daily vernacular. #biggesttakeaway 

In part two of our faith discussion, David and I got through so many topics and tangents. We start off at physics and apologetics - the argument that changed his career trajectory. From there we get into the paradoxes of the universe, the point of life, and the connection goodness has to pain, grief and suffering. Of God, David says, "He's not lonely. He makes creation because he wants to share the beauty of his creation with his creation." Such a quotable guy!
