Lonnie and Sheridan go through the origins of yoga, what its original purpose was, and how it made its way into the modern culture.

Is yoga compatible with Christianity? Can you separate the physical exercise of yoga from the spiritual aspect? Should Christians do yoga?

Lonnie and Sheridan give thoughts on these questions. Where do you stand?

What significance do symbols have? So many celebrities seem to use specific symbols and gestures, but what do they mean? Where do they come from?

Sheridan and Lonnie talk about what some of these symbols are and their origins, as well as whether or not they can be changed to mean something different. We try to give you factual evidence as to where these symbols came from and what they mean, and the question we pose to the listener is: Should you continue to use these symbols if they are associated with paganism?

We ask you to keep an open mind about the information we will be talking about. We believe you should be honest with yourself about what the origins of these symbols are. Do your own research and come to your own conclusions.

Thanks for listening!

We think it's good to know what you believe and, more importantly, why do you believe it. So today, Lonnie and Sheridan take a test from "The Political Compass" website and answer some questions to determine where they line up on the political spectrum.

Thank you for taking the time to listen to us ramble!

When it comes to astrology, We here at Christian Theories Podcast find ourselves disagreeing about its accuracy and usefulness. Sheridan believes astrology is more useful than not, whereas Lonnie believes that astrology is not accurate enough to be useful.

HOW ACCURATE IS ASTROLOGY? The goal of this episode is to test just that.

Since we didn’t know Lonnie’s Ascendant sign in the last episode, we found out what it was today. But instead of just talking about that, we decided to go a different route.

In the first part of this episode, we go through each of the 12 signs of the Zodiak, and Lonnie gives each one a rating as to how much it describes both Sheridan and him. After we do all that, we then figure out what Lonnie's Ascendant sign is and see how closely it matches what we thought it should be.

Then, Sheridan reveals his Ascendant sign and we see how close Lonnie was to that as well.

So, if astrology is accurate, we should expect to be able to guess the sign or at least come very close.

The results were, shall we say, surprising?

We all know that people from different areas of the country have different accents and ways of speaking. In the interest of exploring this, Lonnie and Sheridan take a questionnaire from the New York Times to find out where their dialects originate from.
