Shannon and Laura sit down with their guest Brett Osterwyk to discuss the differences between respect and dignity and the ways in which the dignity of others is tied to our own.

Show Notes:

"In every age and culture, we have seen regressions toward racism, sexism, homophobia, militarism, lookism, and classism. This pattern tells me that unless we see dignity as being given universally, objectively, and from the beginning by God, humans will constantly think it is up to us to decide. But this tragic history demonstrates that one group cannot be trusted to portion out worthiness and dignity to another. Our criteria tend to be self-referential and thus highly prejudiced, and the powerless and the disadvantaged always lose out” Excerpt From The Universal Christ, by Richard Rohr
