  • [Unedited] Sister Katarina Schuth With Krista Tippett
    This unedited conversation with Sister Katarina Schuth comes from our produced show "The Beauty and Challenge of Being Catholic: Hearing the Faithful"
    We received hundreds of essays in response to our query about what anchors and unsettles our Catholic audience. So we asked some of you to speak about your tradition. The moving reflections we heard prompted us to depart from our usual format and bring you a fabric of voices from the Church itself.

  • Greg Epstein — Exploring a New Humanism
    In a recent Pew poll, 16 percent of Americans identified themselves as "unaffiliated" — atheist, agnostic, or most prominently "nothing in particular." Greg Epstein, a Humanist chaplain at Harvard, described himself that way until he discovered the tradition of humanism. He is passionate about articulating an atheist identity that is not driven by a stance against religion but by positive ethical beliefs and actions.
