Time To Stand Up

De: Bill Hull

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

In Time to Stand Up Bill Hull takes no prisoners. He makes fun of everyone from Don Henley and Jordan Peterson to philosopher Hannah Arendt and playwright David Mamet. Both the living and dead are targets for his satire, even G.K. Chesterton doesn’t escape.

Just about the time you begin to laugh, he delves into the mind of Elon Musk and the fact that Musk wouldn’t mind being saved from his sins. Then Hull confesses to his own anxieties, faults, and fears. He points out that he has committed all the seven deadly sins and by the way, so have you. Bill possesses inside knowledge of pride, envy, lust, greed and gluttony.

In the end Hull proposes that not only wouldn’t Musk mind being saved, everyone in the human race wouldn’t mind living forever. Bill then knocks various methods of getting “saved” off their iconic pedestals, such as reason, myth, good works, politics, philosophy, science, monasticism and even faith. Like most good mysteries, Hull offers a surprise ending.
