This episode is a continuation of our conversation with, David Gornski. In part 1 of the podcast, we discussed Rene Girard who was a French historian, literary critic, and philosopher of social science whose work belongs to the tradition of anthropological philosophy. In the first part we learned about the ideas of memetic theory and scapegoats, and in this section, we will discuss more about how the bible teaches us better ways to solve human conflict and dispel the natural man's anthropology tradition.

This series fits well with the Christmas season as we reflect how the bible and christianity has influenced our ideas and how our society treats others because of it's influence.
