Listen Later

In this episode we reflect on the results of this week's 2024 Presidential election. How'd we get here? What's next? Where is the country going?

Below are the links to the Ezra Klein podcast and the piece from Quillette, both of which we reference in the podcast.

“While the Heavenly City , therefore, is on pilgrimage in this world, she calls out citizens from all nations and so collects a society of aliens, speaking all languages. She takes no account of any difference in customs, laws, and institutions, by which earthly peace is achieved and preserved – not that she annuls or abolishes any of those, rather, she maintains them and follows them, provided that no hindrance is presented thereby to the religion which teaches that the one supreme and true God is to be worshiped. Thus even the Heavenly City in her pilgrimage here on earth makes use of the earthly peace and defends and seeks the compromise between human wills in respect of the provisions relevant to the mortal nature of man, so far as may be permitted without detriment to true religion and piety.”

-St Augustine, The City of God, Book 19.
