Morality and Climate Change 14:27

3d ago14:27

14:27

Climate change is not merely a matter of either science or politics. Wealthy people don’t tend to live in mobile home parks, after all, so the stronger hurricanes and tornadoes have a direct impact on those who are forced by economics to live in the least substantial housing. We must do more than open our hearts and wallets to participate in relief…

Voting in an Empire of Lies 16:28

17d ago16:28

16:28

It is not hyperbole to say that our election on Tuesday is probably the most important election in our life times. In fact, it is entirely possible that this could turn out to be the last free election held in the United States if the anti-democracy wing of the Republican Party gain the reigns of power. We have been subjected to increasingly insane…

No Way To Prevent This,’ Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens 17:54

1M ago17:54

17:54

In light of the recent assassination attempts against Donald Trump, in which the infamous AR-15 assault style rife was used, it seems like a good time to raise the issue of passing much needed gun reform legislation. The majority of Americans want sensible gun laws passed and yet we keep re-electing politicians who refuse to give us what we want. W…

Fort Collins Museum of Discovery Exhibits 28:36

Gaza One Year Later: The Publicity War 22:56

2M ago22:56

22:56

We have arrived at the one-year anniversary of the Hamas terrorist attack on Israel and the war drags on and even threatens to escalate. The Israeli response has, for many, overshadowed the horror of the original attack. The world is asked to witness a problem with no evident solutions, endlessly debating who is to blame while hostages, at least th…

Teen Self-Care Fair w/ Fort Collins Museum of Discovery and Alliance for Suicide Prevention of Larimer County 20:49

20:49

Youth suicides are a concern in Colorado. A Teen Self-Care Fair is planned for October 13 at the Fort Collins Museum of Discovery, to give young people alternatives to that concern. I spoke with two of the planners of the Fair, Laura Vilaret-Tuma of the Museum of Discovery, and Rachel Olson of the Alliance for Sicide Prevention, about the fair, and…

Misogyny in 2024? Unbelievable! 21:54

2M ago21:54

21:54

We cannot feign surprise at the outrageous and hypocritical misogynist attacks on Kamala Harris, but isn't it a shame that we are still having to fight this fight in 2024? Women have fought for a place at the table in law schools, medical schools, and in America's pulpits with a great deal more success than they have had in executive and legislativ…

Cross-Cultural Communication is the topic of a class to be offered on October 9 by the Fort Collins Human Relations Commission.

The Ten Commandments vs The Beatitudes 20:14

2M ago20:14

20:14

When Louisiana's new governor, Jeff Landry, signed an order that every state classroom from Kindergarten through university classrooms would have to post a poster sized copy of the Ten Commandments, you probably heard a voice in your head saying, "What an idiot." But what if he wasn't just trying to make culture war news and appeal to his base of c…

Conversation with The Center for Public Deliberation at CSU 34:30

3M ago34:30

34:30

It’s hard to have a rational discussion over differing opinions about almost anything, in America these days, but the Center for Public Deliberation at Colorado State University is training students to help change that. On a new Faith in Progress podcast, I speak with Martin Carcasson, Director of the Center, and one of his students, about their wo…

Giving Capitalism a Conscience 28:26

3M ago28:26

28:26

All of the world’s religions promote compassion towards the poor as a central spiritual value. However, it should be noted that the world’s major religions all were born in times of great scarcity of resources. It was impossible to prevent poverty because there simply was not enough resources to lift everyone up to a decent standard of living. Howe…

Assisting in Our Own Victimization 23:15

3M ago23:15

23:15

“Why do the innocent suffer? And can we consider as well how many who are clearly victims are also unconsciously coconspirators in their abuse? Just as Bob Marley sang, “Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds,” we all must consider the ways in which we have failed to take responsibility to allowing or even …

The newest Faith in Progress podcast is a recording of a discussion between about 80 people in Fort Collins (live and virtual) with two spokespeople of the joint Palestinian-Israeli peace group Parents Circle Families Forum. The group is made up of Israeli and Palestinian families, each of whom has lost a close loved one to the conflict; they have …

Project 2025 as seen by a Pastor 18:29

4M ago18:29

18:29

In the hope that Donald Trump will win the November election, the conservative think tank, the Heritage Foundation, has composed a huge book of plans and resumes to transform our government called the 2025 Project. It is 900 pages long and too much for any one news show or religious podcast to treat comprehensively but this message attempts to take…

The Human Library 24:25

I speak with Beth Jaeger and Barb Kistler of the Fort Collins City Human Relations Commission about The Human Library, a program in which human "books" will tell human "readers" "What's it like being me in Fort Collins." The Human Library will be held on Sunday, August 4, at the Fort Collins Museum of Discovery.…

Religion and Politics – Natural Bed Fellows 20:56

4M ago20:56

20:56

What makes some topics controversial is because you can make a rational defense of either side of the issue. For example, you can mount logical arguments in favor of either socialism or capitalism but you cannot have a reasonable debate about whether the Earth is round or flat. Unfortunately, we often fail to have the needed rational debates that h…

Liars: Erasing Your Own Soul 26:52

5M ago26:52

26:52

The news has been uncommonly full of conversations about who lied and about what. Hunter Biden lied on his application to buy a hand gun. Michael Cohen lied about lots of things, specifically around the hush money payment made to an adult film actress to remain silent about her sexual encounter with Donald Trump. But it goes a lot deeper than that,…

What is a Cult and are You in One? 27:12

5M ago27:12

27:12

The gloves are off, at least in the left leaning media, as we now hear the Trump base regularly being referred to as a "cult." That's strong language that should not be used lightly but does the "shoe fit?" This message asks us to consider the diagnostic criteria for identifying any movement as a cult and to apply these criteria to ourselves.…

Your Jesus, My Jesus, and the Jesus of History 26:17

6M ago26:17

26:17

Most progressive church goers have been exposed to academic criticism of the New Testament, especially as concerns the nature of the historical Jesus. After all, the Jesus Seminar has been around for 40 years, giving us those wonderful books by Marcus Borg, John Shelby Spong, Karen Armstrong, and Jon Dominic Crossan. Still, I have marveled at how c…

Faith Without Certainty 25:01

6M ago25:01

25:01

When we watch a movie like Star Wars, we immediately know that it is fiction. No one tries to hitch a ride on the Millennium Falcon or tries to order a working light saber from Amazon. Sadly, however, many modern religious people read biblical myths as if talking with a snake in the Garden of Eden or following Moses through a divided Red Sea is som…

Safe Families for Children 22:01

Safe Families for Children is a faith-inspired alternative to children having to enter the state foster care system. As the movement's Northern Colorado director Roxy Tines explains in this new podcast, families experiencing difficulties can voluntarily place their child in a safe home for a limited period, until the difficulties are resolved, with…

USA at War with Russia and Iran 26:54

26:54

Similar to the WWII generation, we are living in a time facing dramatic changes that may end up being good but which also have the potential of being catastrophically bad. As Eric Holder recently warned, there is no cavalry coming to save us. Storied institutions like the Supreme Court and the Congress have demonstrated their willingness to side wi…

Hyperbole, Hysteria, and Hypocrisy 20:38

7M ago20:38

20:38

The claim that the coming election is "the most important election of our lifetime," has been sadly over used and possibly worn out to the point that people easily ignore those of us who are urgently crying "wolf" about the November 2024 election. This message attempts to state the stark reality of the risk to democracy and individual freedoms at s…

Why No One in the Bible Accepted Jesus Christ as their Personal Lord and Savior 21:24

8M ago21:24

21:24

Two great periods of revivals saved the Christian religion from extinction in the United States. The Great Awakening, near the birth of our nation, and The Second Great Awakening that came along with the western expansion, the Civil War, and the end of slavery. Much of what modern American Christians think is a biblical faith is actually the echos …

The First Easter 33:08

Easter, as it has been taught to us through traditional modern sermons, is, as Bishop John Shelby Spong described it, simply "unbelievable." Stepping back from the "yippee, we're all gonna live forever" myth, this lecture tries to treat the first Easter in a historical context with a critical discussion of early Christian writing.…

This is Not Normal 18:13

18:13

THIS IS NOT NORMAL! Cultural values we worked hard to correct over the past century are slipping back into what is being allowed to become normative language, thinking, and voting. North Carolina's GOP nominated candidate for governor, Mark Robinson, who enjoyed more than 60% of the vote in the primary, has publicly denied the holocaust, insisted t…

Redemptive Suffering 21:22

The sad news of Alexey Navalny's death in prison brings to mind many who have chosen personal sacrifice as a way to raise awareness in the public's mind or to confront the evils of governments through the centuries. Navalny takes his place along side the likes of Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King, Jr., Gandhi, and others whose names remain written…

How Much Does it Cost Me? 19:04

32 of the 33 developed nations in the world have universal healthcare. Why is the United States the only outlier? We spend more on healthcare than any of the other nations, why can't we get the distribution system to be more fair? We also have between five and ten times as many of our citizens in prison, than any of those other developed nations. W…

Fear is the Root of Anger 20:25

9M ago20:25

20:25

Men and sometimes women confuse anger with a show of strength, or of being courageous when, in most cases, anger is simply a product of being afraid. As we try to understand the dangerous divisions within our American population, I think that we need to give careful consideration to the role of grievance, of irrational anger fueled by a paranoid le…

God Doesn’t Write Books 29:07

10M ago29:07

29:07

For many congregations, the Bible is still the church's book but not many progressives find scripture to be either authoritative or even relevant in their lives. We have lost an anchor in our lives when we give up on sacred texts but the church of the 21st century has to find its truth to less clearly identified but indisputably more reliable sourc…

What Your Teacher Didn’t Tell You (and probably didn’t know) 29:41

29:41

The prophetic church has always advocated for human rights, civil rights, LGBTQ+ rights, women’s rights, and has opposed the forces that create poverty, war, illness, and racism. As fascist language keeps rising in our current political environment, the prophetic church must find its voice again; before it is too late.…

Time Does Not Exist 26:02

11M ago26:02

26:02

Time is not a material thing. Our units of time actually measure movement, i.e. if there was no movement the concept of time would be meaningless. Talk about going back in time is not merely science fiction, it is, in fact, more a matter of fantasy, of imagination disengaged from reality. Understanding science is increasingly important but to move …

Finding Balance in a World that Demands Action 18:40

11M ago18:40

18:40

Americans have fewer annual vacation days than any other western government and more than that, we tend to tie retirement and healthcare to our employment. So, out of fear and anxiety, we work more than almost any other nation and yet have millions without healthcare, income, or housing. Our world obviously needs our involvement and action but it a…

The war in Ukraine shows no signs of coming to an end and now the war in Gaza is escalating to an unthinkable death toll and seems only to get worse daily. What are we to make of these tragic wars that remind us so much of the way that WWII started? And as Americans, since our tax dollars and military hardware are deeply involved in both wars, what…

The United States has perpetuated compromises in our constitution which were originally written to give slave holding states assurances that the institution of slavery would not be immediately wiped out by larger and more populous industrial states. What gave some citizens a larger voice in managing our government at the end of the 18th century has…
