  • Reconnecting With Religious Roots, with Bishop Marc Andrus
    Mar 11 2025

    A dialogue with Marc Andrus, former Bishop of California, at Grace Cathedral, San Francisco. Our ancestors’ lives from birth to death were shaped and structured by spiritual traditions but today many people are no longer connected to religious festivals or practices. This loss of religious faith in unprecedented, and in 2016 in the UK a survey showed that for the first time in history a majority of the population say they have no religion. In this dialogue Rupert and Marc discuss the possibility of reconnecting through festivals, pilgrimages and sacred places.

    A dialogue with Marc Andrus, former Bishop of California, at Grace Cathedral, San Francisco. Many people who keep pets have experienced their ability to comfort and heal. There is now a pet therapy movement where people take dogs and cats into hospices and children’s hospitals, and the human animal bond can help many physical and mental issues.

  • Is Christianity a victim of its own success? with Bishop Marc Andrus at Grace Cathedral
    Dec 17 2024

    A dialogue with Marc Andrus, former Bishop of California, at Grace Cathedral, San Francisco. European civilisation has been shaped in many ways by its Christian heritage. In the Middle Ages the Church started schools, universities and hospitals, and set up systems for caring for the sick and the poor. In the twentieth century, the hospice movement was started by Christians. Even the principles of democracy and human rights are rooted in the Christian doctrine that all people are equal before God. Yet these achievements are now widely seen as a triumph of secularism. What is going on?

Heretics are fascinating, especially modern day heretics like Rupert Sheldrake. Honestly I came to this podcast with a 'banned tedtalk' and little else known about Sheldrake, except that he is shunned from the scientific community because of wayward thinking and challenging the accepted 'science.'

But isn't science about asking questions about the natural world, and then trying to find answers to those questions? At its heart, that is what science is. So I have always taken issue with anyone who claims 'the science is settled' about anything. Or the folks who seem to regard science as almost a religion, some omnipotent deity hidden in numbers from whose devotees we must take orders and to whom we must pledge our unquestioning devotion.

So anyway, when I saw Sheldrake had a podcast about animals (one of my very favorite topics), I thought, "well why the heck not?"

And I must say, this was an engaging discussion between these two authors. Admittedly they veered into metaphysics and spirituality discussions as much, if not more, than they talked about animals, but... It was thought-provoking and makes one think about things from a slightly different vantage. I like that.

I am not saying that I am ready to prescribe to Sheldrake's theories, but one does not need to believe every word someone says in order to enjoy listening to that person. These gentlemen had a subdued humor, expansive intellects, and very curious views about the nature of reality. And I enjoyed listening to them both very much.

Curious, interesting, open-minded, and enjoyable

Two of my heroes. Heretics are really just those that question the establishment. Two extremely intelligent men that use critical thinking & open minds to advance understanding. A breath of fresh air.

illuminating conversation

It just doesn't get any better than listening to Rupert having discussions with some of my favorite scie tests and journalists. Excellent!!!

Top Notch
