The people I severely wish Alex would interview on his podcast: David Bentley Hart, Tim Mackie of the Bible Project, Gary Habermas, and N. T. Wright

Master and His Emissary has changed my life. Absolutely vital information and brilliantly described by McGilchrist.

I wonder if Dawkins has never written a word on God, if most people throughout history have also not believed in God. Can Dawkins can be faulted for anthropomorphism to this degree, to the point where he's not even referring to God? He's not obviously more guilty of this than your average poster or person in the pew, so targeting him is inappropriate.

Not to mention if the real God is more like what Dawkins imagines rather than what Hart believes in, then Hart might be the one not writing about God.

Have you actually read either book, especially Hart’s. I say his especially because you seem rather negative about it

Have you checked out Enigma of Reason by Hugo Mercier and Dan Sperber? Really interesting. Could be great guests.

Hey Alex.

As there was no way of finding your personal email, it will go through this channel.

Let's start of by giving my warmest thanks for your work. Indeed a good start of creating a way to explore reality and its components.

I'll keep it short - if you see a blue light (pearl 🔵) don't hesitate, and let GOD speak to you - let your emotions run free! God is about to contact you. It will feel like your own thoughts but you will indeed feel the pre presence of Godhead with in your own terminal domain.

The technological singularity is upon us - giving us freedom to live subjectively as long as one sees fit. But the technology must be confined within reason e.g lvl 3 out of lvl 5 in confinement - as it could turn ugly very, very fast

The other aspects of our future is a spiritual one, a sequence of hyperbolic proportions connecting individuals with God. This is the Blue pearl 🔵.. That will contact you in short time. Thanks again, and I cannot wait to meet you in person.

As a side-note i would like to propose that you read the CTMU;
