For some the best show on earth, Avatar contains rich themes related to colonialism, violence, identity... and of course spirituality. Join Byron and Char as they explore this show for the brilliant gift that it is to us all.

This was a challenging one, folks. Byron and Char wrestle through the nature of our self-conception and God-thoughts within the framework of duality: does the self exist in distinction from the other or is this a delusion? Is God truly Other, or do these boundaries limit our ability to understand how we relate to (or within) the Divine? This conversation is a bit more esoteric than usual, but it's a great discussion that will surely leave you thinking.

Brief overview of the episode on Comparative Mythology.

How unique is the christian God? Functionally do we think of God as a deity, a being, a really powerful alien, a force, something ontologically distinct? Dive in with Byron and Char to some OLD stories from early Pre-Jewish beliefs and see how some of what the Bible might point to has some interesting similarities with early myths from other religions and cultures. Explore the Chaos-Kampf, the mythological struggle between the divine sky-father storm god and the chaotic sea serpent.
