I sit down with Philosophy PHD dropout Jon Badiali (IsDoBe.com) to talk about his journey into Christianity. He goes through nihilism, stops by Heidegger, and binges on Spinozan Pantheism but finds it all a deeply unsatisfying answer to the problem of suffering. Ultimately, he finds his rock in Christ. We talk a bit about Eastern Orthodoxy and Fr. Seraphim Rose, a conversation I find delightful. Enjoy! 1:59 - Interview Starts 5:36 - Eastern vs. Western Christianity 8:10 - Philosophy & Nihilism 27:04 - Heidegger and Christianity 39:14 - Christianity confronts suffering 43:05 - Wrestling with despair 51:37 - Finding and Choosing Christ 56:23 - The road to Damascus moment 1:01:50 - Discovering Orthodoxy 1:12:00 - Leaving the Endless Party
