The Faith Hour with Harriet Cammock

In the bonus segment, we discover that robots are driving the speed of automated delivery and the cost to workers.1

A recent report revealed the unbelievable number of Amazon employees who have been injured on the job, due to speed and automation. Amazon boasts the use of robots who operate on warehouse floors and deliver packages to workers faster than human hands can keep up.

What is the cost of this to workers who become maimed or injured?

Kanye West says his $68M tax refund was ‘divinely inspired’. Indeed, after releasing a new album entitled ‘Jesus is King’ where the rapper who formerly espoused explicit lyrics now capitulates to a non-explicit Christian/Jesus centered message, it would appear that Kanye’s financial windfall- which came on the heels of self-admitted $35 million indebtedness- is the work of a higher being.

But now that Kanye is ’Christian’, at least as “Christian‘ as one in his position can be, the question remains; how sincere is Kanye’s newfound faith? Will it stand the test of time should he ever fall back into millions of dollars of debt? Or  is it just a publicity gimmick by another self-centered celebrity to generate album sales?

#DownToEarth #SundayMorning, the host, Harriet Cammock an author and speaker discusses the parallels between Christianity and Stoicism.

In this episode, Harriet examines the ideology behind #stoicism and any parallels between the two. The similarities are startling. Stoicism, an Ancient Greek philosophy formed in Athens, teaches that virtue,, the highest good is based on knowledge, the wise can live in harmony with he divine Reason that permeates nature. Christianity, based on the teachings of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, teaches love, compassion, charity and forgiveness. It is only through Jesus and faith not good works, that one can achieve salivation .

While stoicism appears as the polar opposite of Christianity- with Stoics relying solely on reason, logic, and knowledge to achieve inner peace, and Christians relying on Jesus’ forgiveness of sins to achieve salvation for their souls- the two philosophies have far more in common than meets the eye.

We previously talked about homeless school children in Michigan,with a recent report chronicling  the 36,000+ homeless children in Michigan. But i New York, the numbers are even more staggering: 114,085 students in New York City schools are homeless. The number of school-age children in New York who live in shelters or ‘doubled-up’ in apartments with family or friends has shot up by 70 per cent over the past decade. This crisis is without precedent in New York City’s history. At night, these children sleep in squalid, unsafe rooms until they move again. Often, school is the only stable place they know,
