”...space is so humbling.” -Joe Rogan
After having some philosophical questions the past couple of days, this clip of an interview Joe Rogan had with Jeremy Stephens was felicitous.
It is not often that I find a civil conversation between a Christian, Jeremy Stephens, and an intelligent individual, like Joe Rogan, that asks such good questions.
I won’t go into much more detail about the video as it stands on its own, but there is something that I’ve been mulling since I watched it.
One of the main ideas that permeated my thoughts after listening to this conversation is the speed with which information is flowing now.
For centuries the main source of information was what we could glean from the printed page - the internet has changed that.
However, there is a caveat. I don’t believe we have truly grasped the power of the internet yet. Until blockchain has a wider adoption in our media, and ideas are not so easily censored, we won’t have as many civil conversations like Joe and Jeremy had.
Yes, people are still inherently bad - if you think otherwise ask any parent of a 2 year old. But, there is something amazing that happens when people interact with truth in an unfiltered way.
What do I mean you ask? Well, Joe and Jeremy discuss that albeit with some colorful language and conclusions that might tickle your own beliefs.
