Hey friends, I have been reading a book on CRT adjacent called Reparations by Duke Kwon and Gregory Thompson. One of the factors I am considering helpful in CRT is that society needs to take ownership for their past mistakes, specifically with white Americans who live off of the momentum gained by slavery in the US. Wouldn't it be more Christian of us to own our mistakes and sins and take of communities that have been made disadvantaged by slave ownership?

Mr. Ventrella, I have been enjoying your weekly dictas and they have become the highlight in my Monday inbox, thank you! Your dicta, Embodied, made me think about dualism. I have been following TruthXchange for several years, and I have recalled a number of speakers in the past talks about dualism as always a bad thing. Are there any types of dualism where this is not the case?

Dr. Ventrella, you quoted Andrew Sandlin in your dicta today, "The conflict is never between non physical and physical..." What about flesh and spirit? Aren't Christian encouraged to walk in the Spirit, not the flesh? In the end won't the world be burnt away, and just the spirit be left?
