Welcome to the show about what rules us. Instead of conflict or force, we propose grace. Tolerance is good; forgiveness is better. But grace is ideal.
Grace is empathy and favor for someone who has said or done something we don’t like. It’s the attempt to understand someone instead of simply condemning them to enemy status.
How could this approach solve social problems? And what is the basis for this view? We explore that here on Gracearchy.
Hi. I’m Jim Babka, your host. I’m looking for post-statist, voluntaryists who either are Christians or have Christian friends that they wish would become voluntaryists.
Is that you?
Bill Protzmann is the moderator.
Some of the topics Bill and I are prone to cover… Libertarianism, Rene Girard, empathy, Christianity and capitalism, Downsize DC, media agenda setting, Human Respect, self-management, Bill of Rights – especially 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 10th Amendments, political theology, and, of course, grace.
